Deals On Ice Chapter 25
Melina POV It was a cold morning, but it was as cold as last night. I saw the maids cooking breakfast for the family and saw Jace's grandfather on the dining table.“Oh good morning pretty, food is ready. You need to eat something before you go out, you're quite thin” he said as he took a lot from me.I sat on the dining chair and I took a fork. He slid a plate of eggs to me and I drank water.“Thank you sir” I said as I packed up my fork to eat.Sunlight poured through the tall windows, and at the far end of the room, I saw Jace paced with his phone pressed to his ear, nodding at whatever his coach was telling him. His grandfather watched him over the rim of his cup of coffee.“My grandson looks at you like he means it. Speaking of looks, did he look at you last night?” He said without moving, like he hasn't said something that made me choke on my eggs. “Er …” I cleared my throat. “It's complicated” I said as I took a sip of water.“Love is always complicated dear” he replied to m

Melina POV “Does grandfather know about this?” Jake asked, still confused about what he heard.“No he doesn't, and he won't. He might die if he hears it it” Mr Hamilton answered with his back facing Jace.“That's why those men are here, to impress them is my goal, right?” Jace asked as he folded his arms.“Not to impress them, but to shake their hands and act like the CEO you are, and will” Mr Hamilton replied back to him This was the most unhealthy thing I've heard that night. I tried peeping more into the door and a loud creak gave me away.“Who's there?” Mr Hamilton asked with a deep intimidating voice.Jace flung his shoulder to move his whole body as his eyes landed on me.It was the strangest moment of my life, because I can't lie to him. The evidence was very clear that I was listening to their conversations.“How much did you hear?” Jace held my arm hauling me to the library as he walked straight as hell.“I heard quite enough” I replied to him pulling my arm free of his hu

Aria's POVI didn't even have much time to have my things cleaned up when my phone pinged that it was time for a class, and Knox was still here with me, going through his phone and using his connections to see if he could help me. It only made me feel worse."How far is your class from here?" He murmured when he saw the screen of my phone. "Let me drop you off and finish things up here.""It's not that far, and you don't really have to worry about it." I salvaged the only good bag I could find here. I was going to buy new exercise books later, plus, I could try to borrow notes from my colleagues at school... if they would help me, I mean. "And... you know this wasn't part of the agreement. I'll deal with Blake myself while we focus on just being boyfriend and girlfriend."His eyes darkened for a bit as he shoved his phone into his pocket, and his jaw tightened. "I'm only trying to help, Aria. What he's doing isn't—""I don't need your help." I knew that it was a cruel response, but I

Melina's POV“Are you free on Thursday?”Those words on my phone could only remind me of one thing: it was Jace's birthday.“Oh my God, no! How could I have forgotten?” I held my phone up to my face, staring at the words as I removed the blanket from my legs.“Who are you talking to?” I didn't notice Maya standing next to the door. She held a water cup in her hand and stood at the doorway, expecting answers from me.“It was Jace.” I locked my phone and put it face down on the bed. “He told me that his birthday was on Thursday, and I forgot.”Maya raised an eyebrow in shock and walked over to my bed, putting her water down on the table.“What? So, what are you doing about it?”Maya asked as she straightened the bed cover besides her.“That's the thing. I forgot his birthday was on Thursday, two days away,” I replied as I shut my eyes, preparing for the scolding of my life.“Respectfully, Melina, you're stupid.”“What? How could you say something like that?” I asked, looking clearly surp

JACEI signed the last page of the contract and handed the documents back to the woman sitting across the table. She checked the signatures before placing everything neatly inside a folder, a satisfied smile on her face.“Congratulations, Jace. We're excited to have you on board. The team campaign should be a great opportunity, and we're particularly looking forward to working with you on the individual advertisement.”“Thank you. I'm looking forward to it too.”She extended her hand, and I shook it before standing. Halpert, who had been sitting beside me throughout the meeting, got up as well.He'd spent most of the afternoon making unnecessary comments about how much money I was about to make, but even he seemed genuinely pleased now that everything was official.“That's it, then,” he said as we walked toward the office doors. “Our captain is officially a Nike man.”I glanced at him. “You make it sound like I just signed a lifetime contract.”“Give it time. Soon, they'll have your f

MELINAThe drive back to campus was quieter than I expected. I sat in the passenger seat with my arms folded, occasionally glancing in his direction.He seemed perfectly comfortable, one hand resting on the steering wheel while the other occasionally adjusted the air conditioning.Meanwhile, I was still trying to understand how someone could casually mention flying home for his birthday when the actual day was only two days away.“You're still upset,” he said, breaking the silence.I turned to him. “Do you blame me? You just told me your birthday is in two days. Two days, Jace! And you were going to let me find out by accident?”He glanced at me briefly before returning his attention to the road. “I didn't think it was something worth making a big deal about.”“How is your birthday not a big deal?”“It's just another day, Mel.”I scoffed. “That's easy for you to say when you're not the one who has to deal with people forgetting your birthday.”He chuckled quietly. “I doubt anyone is
