Chapter 8

Author's POV

Ace woke up hearing the alarm. 

He turned off the alarm and gets down from the bed. 

He went towards his closet then took out his clothes. 

Ace put down the clothes on his bed and entered the washroom. 

After taking a long shower she turned off the shower then wrapped a towel around his waist. 

Ace took another towel and came out while wiping his hair. 

He throws the towel on the couch then gets dressed up. 

Then he took his wallet, phone, car key, and laptop bag then he came downstairs. 

Ace entered the living room and put his laptop on a couch then he went towards the dining table. 

His parents were already waiting for him. 

Ace greeted them and took his seat. 

His mom served him the breakfast. Ace took the breakfast then left for the office. 

At Office

Ace was working when he heard a knock at his door. 

"Come in," Ace said and his manager entered his cabin. 

"What is it?" Ace asked him. 

"Sir, I need your signature on this file," His manager said and put the file in front of Ace. 

Ace took the file and roamed his sharp eyes all over it. When he was satisfied he put his signature on it. 

"Thank you, sir," His manager said and took the file. 

"Is everything ready for the interview?" Ace asked him. 

"Yes sir. Tomorrow, we will take the interview. Sir, do you want to take the interview or do you want me to take it?" His manager asked him. 

"I will take it," Ace said to him. 

"Okay sir," His manager said and left his cabin. 

Ace took another file and started checking. 

When his phone started ringing. 

Ace looked at his phone and saw his mom was calling him. 

Ace picked up the call. 

"Yes mom" 

"Ace, will you receive Nick from the airport or should I send a car?" Mrs. King asked her son. 

"No, mom. I will go to receive him" Ace said.

"Okay. And don't drop him at his penthouse. Bring him here" Mrs. King said. 

"Okay, mom. I will" Ace said and his mom disconnected the call. 

Ace looked at his watch and saw Nick's flight will land after 39 minutes. 

Ace closed his file and took his car key then left his cabin. 

At Airport

Ace was leaning against his car and he saw Nick came out from the airport. 

A smile displayed on his lips after seeing his best friend after a long time. 

Nick smiled at Ace and both hugged each other. 

"I am glad that you finally come back," Ace said. 

"What to do when mom kept blackmailing me?" Nick said and both of them smile. 

Soon they get inside the car. 

"Well your mom ordered me to take you to King Mansion, not in your penthouse," Ace said and started his car. 

Nick smiled hearing this. 

"I know. I already promised mom that I will live in the king's mansion only" Nick said and Ace smiled. 

Nick called Mrs. King mom but he never called Mr. King as father. Because he hates the word father. 

"It is time to take over the things which are rightfully mine" Nick whispered. 

"Indeed you are right. Time to show you are no longer the weak kid" Ace said and Nick nodded. 

After some time they reached the King Mansion. 

Ace parked his car then they both came out. 

Mrs. King hugged Nick. She was so happy because her son came back home. 

Then they entered the living room. 

"Mom, take care of your beloved son. I have a meeting after an hour. I need to go. See you in the evening" Ace said and they both smiled. 

Ace gets inside his car then started driving. 

When his phone beeped up. 

Ace took out his phone and saw it was mail. 

Ace was checking the mail when a stone hit the car's glass. Ace stopped his car at once. He looked at his glass and saw it was broken. He fisted his hand in anger as it was his most favorite car also it was so expensive. 

Ace opened his seatbelt. 

When Amelia saw the car stooped she walked towards the car with anger. 

He gets down from his car and his eyes went widen when he saw a breathtaking gorgeous girl was coming towards him angrily. But soon he controls himself thinking about his beloved car. 

When Amelia came near the man then she shouted angrily," You blind driver. Don't you have eyes? Who gave you a driving license ha? Which fool gave you?" 

"Mind your tongue girl. It was you who walking beside my car. You should have keep distance instead of walking middle of the road like a fool" Ace said to her. 

Amelia gritted her teeth angrily and spoke up, "Fool? You are the fool here. And you fool, blind man it was you who made my dress dirty. Who gave you a driving license? Ha, who gave you when you didn't know how to drive? Which fool gave you? Just see what you have done to my dress" Amelia again shouted at him. 

"I think I have added a little more color on your dress," Ace said to her casually like it doesn't matter to him and Amelia got angrier. 

"Do you think it is a joke?" Amelia asked him angrily. 

"It is my pleasure if you find it is a joke sweetheart but I don't have freaking time for creating useless jokes," Ace said to her. 

Amelia felt her anger reached on nice clouds. 

She looked at his expensive blue coat and hugged him suddenly.

Ace was taken back. His heart started breathing faster. His hands are hanging down. 

He closed his eyes and felt peace. Without his will, he was about to wrap his arms around her unwillingly when Amelia moves back and gave him an evil smirk. 

Ace looked at him with confusion. 

"Your coat is now looking nice" Amelia whispered. 

He looked down at his coat and saw it was covered with mud. Then he realized why she hugged him. 

He looked up but Amelia wasn't there anymore. 

He looked around and saw her getting inside a taxi. Before he calls her the taxi drives away. 

He made an annoying face and removed his coat and he wears the extra coat he had kept in his car. 

Then he put the muddy coat in a bag. 

As much as he wanted to follow her but he can not do it. He has an important meeting to attend. 

"Next time I will not leave you, wild cat," He said and started his car towards the office. 

After the meeting Ace came back home and ordered his driver to fix the broken glass. 

After he gets fresh up he came out from the washroom and saw Nick was standing with two cups of coffee. 

Ace took one cup then they sat down on the couch and start sipping the coffee. 

"Do you have any plan at night?" Nick asked him. 

"No. Why?" Ace asked him. 

"Then let's visit the club," Nick said. 

"Okay," Ace said to him and kept sipping his coffee.

But little he had known, this night going to change many things.
