“I understand that you don’t trust me, but unlike Elizabeth, Kyle is not someone that can be trusted at all. I don’t want you near him. Promise me that you won’t contact him again. Can you do that?” he asked sternly. I didn’t quite understand why he was being so serious and pushy about it. At least he wasn’t showing just how mad he was at me for meeting up with Kyle behind his back. Maybe he was jealous because I used to date Kyle before, but something told me that it was something perhaps beyond just that. “Fine. I promise…” I said in resignation. “Thank you, Rina…” Ace murmured sweetly.I couldn’t help but smile a little when he pulled me closer to him and placed a soft kiss on my forehead as if that was a little reward that he wanted to give me for making that promise to him. Our eyes met when his face parted from mine a little. I could see and sense the desires in the depth of his hazel eyes and that told me that the night was far from over. Ace kissed the tip of my nose softl
I moaned at the pleasure of his cock moving inside of me before I lowered my hips to suck his massive member into me again. His cock pounded into me faster and harder as I began moving my hips faster, bouncing it up and down his cock. “Ahh! Ahh! Yes…Ahhh!” I cried out as if I had been possessed by some lusty demon. My hips rose up and then slammed down on top of his to take in all of his cock into my wet body. My pussy clenched hard around his cock as it tried to suck it in even deeper inside of me. His cock hit so deep inside of me as I continued using the weight of my body to pound my pussy down on top of his cock to draw him in even deeper. I cried out his name as my hips swayed and my breasts jiggled from the movement of my body as I continued to ride him harder and faster. “Good girl. That’s it, Rina…” Ace groaned with extreme satisfaction. I could feel his cock getting hotter and bigger inside of me. I angled my body to make sure that his cock hit against the pleasure spots
“No, but you should be because if he does turn up, you’re going to be the only one left here to greet him,” Ace replied before he grinned at me. I bet he planned this. Something in the back of my mind just told me that he planned this. He was just going to abandon me here so that I would be the one to handle his father if and when he gets here. “No…I am never doing that!” I exclaimed as I jumped off the bed and raced into the bathroom to get ready. “It’s still very early in the morning. You don’t have to rush, and you’ll still make it to work on time…” Ace said lazily.I turned to see him leaning against the doorframe of the bathroom and I just wanted to roll my eyes at him. It was his fault that I was panicking like this. Of course, I had no idea if the chairman would really turn up here, but I didn’t want to take the risk of running into him here when I was all alone. I bet my life that he must still be in a horrible mood right now because of Ace’s sudden announcement last night.
“So, you’re saying that Ace wants another spin on the marketing message and plan even after it was already approved by the Ashford committee?” I asked to make sure that I understood correctly. “That’s right. I thought he approved it but apparently, he only thought that it was just passable to use to get approval from the committee, but he doesn’t think that the plan is good or detailed enough for actual implementation,” Julianna replied before biting down hard on her lower lip.I could sense her frustration and I was sure that I understood how she felt. Being told by Ace that her work wasn’t good enough must have been quite tough for her. Not having much experience on marketing, I wasn’t sure how much help I could offer but that didn’t mean that I wasn’t willing to give it my best shot. “What do you want us to do?” Jeremy asked while getting straight to the point.“You two are supposed to be good at coming up with creative ideas, right? Come up with a few ideas for us. We don’t have
“You’re here again…” the keeper greeted us without much interest. “Thanks for having us,” Jeremy replied cheerfully. I plastered a polite smile on my lips when I sensed that we weren’t exactly welcomed there. Apart from us, I doubt that anyone went down there to visit the archives. It was quiet and very cold down there. The keeper willingly let us in without much comment. Although I had been there only once before, I remembered exactly where Ace’s works were. “It might be worth checking other works as well. I’m not sure where the old marketing files are stored, though…” Jeremy said from behind me.“You’re right. Do you want to split up and look?” I suggested.“Good idea. I guess that you want to take a look at Ace’s past files, right?” Jeremy asked knowingly. I wondered if it was that obvious to him that I was excited to dive into Ace’s past works again. His guess was spot on, and I wasn’t bothered to deny it.“Yeah, I’ll take Ace’s part so you can see if you can find anything int
“Did you see a ghost or something, Karina?” Jeremy asked me teasingly. “No. Why?” I replied.“Your face is as white as a sheet. Please tell me that you found something useful…” he said hopefully. “I did…I think…” I mumbled.“Really? Show me…” he urged excitedly. “I took some notes. I’ll show you tomorrow…” I mumbled.“Why can’t you show me now? Are you in a hurry to head back?” he asked with clear disappointment. “Yeah, I need to head back. Sorry…” I replied. “What did you find exactly?” he asked as his eyes narrowed at me suspiciously. He wouldn’t truly understand it even if I tried to explain it to him. I smiled a little regretfully at Jeremy before deciding to give him a simplified answer instead. “A marketing plan…” I replied quite truthfully. Jeremy’s head cocked to the side as he shot me a truly confused look and I didn’t blame him for reacting that way. I wished that I could explain what I found to him, but my mind couldn’t focus on work any longer at that moment. “I’l
“Same goes for you. Will you be in the office tomorrow?” I asked hopefully.“I will be,” he replied immediately. “Great. I’ll make sure that we run into each other,” I declared enthusiastically. Ace just laughed at me. The sound of his laughter brought some joy and warmth to my heart. Although Ace was the one who told me to not overwork myself and to get some sleep, I doubt that he was getting enough sleep. Ace had been out of the office and I had to cancel a couple of management meetings that he had scheduled at our company for him. I wanted to ask where he went off to, but I knew that I wouldn’t get any answers anyways even if I did ask. While I was lost in my thoughts and my worries for him, I realized that Ace was unusually silent. I wanted to see him more than anything at that moment. The night would feel so long because I had to wait to see him tomorrow. “Is something wrong?” I asked in a small voice. “No, I just wanted to hear your voice…” he replied without missing a hear
“I’m very impressed with the idea that you came up with, Karina,” Jeremy said with a warm smile. “Thanks. I hope you got to catch up on some sleep last night…” I replied as I eyed his face.I couldn’t stop myself from smiling and giggling a little now that the bags under his eyes were less visible. It was a little sad that we had to take turns catching up on sleep like this; but hopefully soon, everything would work out for the better and this storm will past too. “Should we relax for a day?” Jeremy suggested in a hopeful voice.We headed back to our work desks where I dumped down my bag and my laptop. I wanted to rest for the day but the real reason that I wanted to get everything out of the way in the morning was because I had a very important matter to attend to.“That doesn’t sound too bad. Anyways, if you don’t need me then…” I said before I flashed him a smile.“Where are you going?” he asked as his eyes narrowed suspiciously at me. “I’m not going to run out to go shopping so
