That freaking back stabber!
How could he betray his own nephew like that? He joined hands with Antonio for what? To defame his own family?
What would he gain if Valencian Corp's reputation got ruined in the market? Wouldn't it harm his bank balance too?
I knew he was not what he showed to the world. But today, after talking to Liza I got to know what a snake he was. Winning Ace's trust he was now trying to stab him on the back while remaining in the shadow.
And Ace had no idea about this. I had to tell him. But I had no idea exactly how to start this conversation. I knew what was the truth, but I didn't have any physical proof to show him. Will he believe my words?
Suddenly I halted on my way seeing a certain person I hated with everything in me. Red freaking witch!
Before the conference room, she was talking and giggling with Matt bat

The Trap Of Ace Threat
My eyes squinted against the bright light as soon as the room lit up. And then I found the person who dragged me in this room.Dark orbs watched me silently.My fists clenched. "What the hell is this, Arthur?"His head cocked to the side. "You don't even know what hell is. Trust me, I haven't done anything yet to compare it with hell."I frowned. "What do you mean?"A muscle of his jaw ticked, his aged left eye twitched. "I'll just say five words, Emerald." Disgust dripped from his voice as he took my name. "Stay out of my path."My forehead creased more in confusion. What was he talking about?And then realization hit me. A shiver ran down my spine at the malice that his dark soulless eyes held."What are you trying to say, Arthur?" I kept my voice as strong as I could.He found out. He found out of my quest. But I didn
The Trap Of Ace The demons of the past
His entire stance tensed as soon as I asked the question. His eyes still away from mine as he took a deep breath, his jaw locked tight. "Rosebud, we just got together. Let's just keep the bitter chapter of my life out of our new beginning, shall we?" Grey orbs met mine. They held a desperation for me to understand. "I don't want to relive my past when all I want is to make new beautiful memories with you." I knew it hurt him to talk about his past. But I couldn't let this go. I had this intuition that whatever Arthur was talking about was related to his father's suicide. There could be something else also. And I needed to know everything to sort things out. So even if it pained me to torture him with his memories, I didn't back off. "Until you're clutching on your past like that, you can't start fresh. You can't be truly happy. I can see it, Ace. You're battling with something. There's something that's bothering yo
The Trap Of Ace Fears
Sweat trickled down his strong back along the tensing and flexing of his muscles and shoulders as he was lost into killing his huge punching bag. Only the sound of his ragged breathing and punches echoed around the gym. But what had me shocked was the bloody spots on the punching bag. And I knew where they were coming from. Rage boiled inside my veins as my fists clenched. He was doing it again. "Ace! Stop it!" His movement stilled with his hands gripping the bag to halt its swaying. The broad shoulders of his moved up and down with every heavy breath as he moved his head to me. Dark stormy grey eyes met my flaming turquoise. Striding closer, I snatched his hands from the bag. A gasp left me at the sight. They were worse than I'd ever seen before. They weren't just bruised, they were bloody. "What the
The Trap Of Ace Missing him
What? Murdered? I stilled, his words were slowly processing in my head. "W-what are you talking about? Everyone knows he did suicide. And I even know why he did that. Ace told me everything." I heard him scoffing. "Your Ace definitely lied to you again. Just like he did every time. Just like he created a sham to break your heart." I ignored his jab and the urge to right his words. Though he was right, there was a truth behind that act also. "How do you know that his father was murdered? Who told you that?" "Digging out Arthur's truth as we got to know what illegal businesses he runs, I had a suspicion that Achilles could have some connections with his uncle's activities. I mean, Arthur was doing all these under his nose and he had no idea about it? Now that sounds a little unbelievable. So I told my cousin to loo
The Trap Of Ace Goosebumps
"Came to meet my best friend. Why? I'm not allowed in Achilles Valencian's cave?"I rolled my eyes. I knew inviting him in could cause a catastrophe if Ace comes and sees him here, but I couldn't just send him away."It's not like that. Come in!"He strolled inside as I opened the door wide for him."Coffee?" I asked while he looked around the penthouse, his hands stuffed into his pockets."Thanks!"Nodding my head, I padded into the kitchen and he followed behind."So, what brought you here all of a sudden? You didn't tell me you were going to drop by.""After last night, I thought to talk to you personally. I wanted to see if you're okay," he replied."I'm fine, Warner. Don't worry!" I put water on the stove."Did you ask him yet?" He watched me
The Trap Of Ace Stormy night
"Ace?" I called again, but the shadow didn't move.Padding closer, I squinted my eyes. The lightning that cracked outside left a flash of luster on his face for a fleeting second. Stormy grey eyes were set on me. But they were dark tonight. Much stormier than I'd even encountered.I let out a sigh of relief. "What the hell is wrong with you? You almost gave me a heart attack!"When he didn't answer, I found the switch and turned the lights on.And there he was.Still in his last night's pants and a fresh black shirt, the one he must have worn before storming out, his disheveled form sat silently on the couch. Some of the buttons of his shirt were undone, giving me a sinful sight.Even the dark circles under his eyes and a day's of old stubble didn't do anything to make him look any less sexier.I missed him.
The Trap Of Ace Leaving him
With clenched fists, I stood there with tears brimming into my eyes, watching him going still. Color slowly drained from his face, as his grey eyes widened to a friction."W-what did you say?" his deep accent asked."I said what you heard. If you don't trust me at all, I don't think this thing between us can work." Shaking my head, I wiped my tears furiously. "I'm tired of you continuously keeping me in the dark! I've already suffered for years because of your one sided decision, I won't take more. You can now happily stay in your penthouse with your stubbornness, secrets and privacy! No Emerald will nag you again and again to know your past from now on!"Ignoring the way his shoulders tensed, the crazed look that flashed across his eyes, his clenched jaw, I turned around and stormed out of the room."Don't you dare put even a step out of the penthouse, Emerald! You aren't going anywhere!"
The Trap Of Ace Panic
Knocking on the door, I waited.The hallway of the hotel was quite empty. I didn't even notice much rush of customers around. This hotel's being so old and deep in the city could be the reason behind it.This was the hotel Warner was staying at for the time being. He once gave me his address to meet him there, but I couldn't make up my time to do so. Well, I had been ignoring him a lot in the last few days, even months. And here I was thinking not to hurt him anymore.It was my luck to have such a great friend like him. Even after everything, he was here for me.When some moments passed and nobody answered, I knocked again. And this time I heard his voice."Who's it?" asking, as he opened the door, his slightly swollen eyes met mine.Surprise flashed in them."Em? Y-you came?" A uneven smile stretched across his face. "I thought you don't care for me eno
