Chapter 455 Start and End

“You’re coming with me,” he said with a firm nod of his head.

“Me?” I asked with widened eyes.

“Of course. Who else? Don’t you dare think that you’re getting out of this one,” Ace said with a satisfied laugh.

“You can’t be serious. You do realize that I’m not longer your secretary, right?” I asked as I batted my eyelashes at him teasingly.

Although I wanted to tease him, it was true that I was no longer working as his secretary. The thought of being dragged to all the farewell parties along with him excited me a little but it also felt like a hassle. Above all else, I knew that I wasn’t a big fan of big gatherings and meeting so many new people all at once.

“You’re not going as my personal secretary. You’re going as my girlfriend,” he replied like it was supposed to be obvious.

“Umm…isn’t it too soon?” I asked as a frown formed in between my brows.

“Don’t look so worried or you’re going to make me feel bad,” Ace said although he ended up laughing a little at my reaction.

“The news of your breakup with Elizabeth isn’t even out yet so we can’t be dating,” I pointed out.

“That’s true…” Ace with before faking an exaggerated pout.

Now it was my turn to giggle because I found his expression so funny. Ace smiled at me, and I knew that I would end up following him to those parties regardless of what I had to say. That didn’t mean that I wasn’t worried about the announcement of their breakup. I prayed that things would go well and that this storm would pass over us and be gone soon.

Fortunately, I didn’t need to be there at their announcement. It was an affair just as big as when they announced the merger and for very different reasons. The crowd of reporters and everyone that gathered were different as well. Instead of shareholders and reporters purely covering business news, there was a large crowd of reporters working for tabloid magazines and online gossip channels. Some business reporters also turned up to cover the angle that their breakup may have on the performance of the business.

As for me, I decided not to be there and instead opted to hear how it went from Ace. I could have watched the news, but the announcement did not interest me. What held my interest was what would happen after the announcement had been made. Just as expected, their breakup was a very big deal and the fact that no one saw it coming just made it an even bigger spectacle. The news quickly went viral, and I caught myself reading through some articles and posts written about it online although I initially had no intention to.

Surprisingly, the news of their breakup garnered more interest than the news of the two of them getting back together. I guessed people enjoyed seeing things fall apart rather than celebrating good news. This was their second time breaking up. Unlike all their relationships that seemed to be fake or misunderstood by the public, their decision to go their separate ways always remained true.

When I got the chance to talk to Ace, it was very late at night after the announcement was made. He came back to his place alone in the middle of the night after parting ways with Elizabeth at the venue of the announcement.

“I guess it went well…” I said after greeting him.

“Well, enough. It’s good enough that we got the message out straight and clear,” Ace said before winking at me.

“You should rest, you look a little tired…” I suggested it with worry.

“Come here….” Ace said as he urged me into his arms.

I didn’t move fast enough to satisfy Ace because he ended up coming toward me before wrapping his arms around my body and pulling me into his embrace. I heard Ace let out a sigh and he sounded so relief. Another chapter had ended for him and Elizabeth and it also signaled a real start for our relationship. I wrapped my arms around Ace and held him as we both enjoyed the comfort of each other’s embrace. I wanted to hold him close to me like this forever so that we wouldn’t ever part.

“Do you want to drink something warm? It should help you unwind,” I offered with a smile.

“No, thanks. I would rather spend time with you than have you go to the kitchen,” he replied immediately.

“In that case, we should sit down,” I said as I tugged on his hand and led him to the sofa.

I had lost count of the evenings that we spent together on the sofa as we talked and exchanged our thoughts. As we sat down, Ace naturally wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pulled me closer to him.

“You look like you have so many questions that you want to ask,” Ace said as he stroked the back of my head. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜

“You seem to know it all…” I muttered.

“You have a very curious and slightly troubled look on your face so I can tell that you have many questions that you want to ask and that you’re feeling slightly worried,” he explained although there was really no need to.

“Alright. You got me…” I confessed since there was no point in trying to hide anything from him.

“Ask away. What is it that you want to know?” he asked.

“What’s going to happen now? I mean, you two made that announcement and everyone is going crazy about it but what is really going to happen now?” I asked the topmost question in my mind.

“I’m not sure. Many things might happen or not that many things will happen. All this gossip will fade away soon enough and people will move on with their lives. There will be newer and hotter gossip to draw their attention away and soon all will be forgotten,” Ace said with a shrug of his shoulders.

“What about the company?” I asked in a small voice.
