Even though I was technically allowed to date Ace now, he was still technically in a relationship with Elizabeth. Their relationship seemed to be very much a cover up now more than ever before with the two not seeing each other much outside the context of work and now that the first phase of the merger has come to an end, the two will probably see less of each other. I wondered what was going to happen now that Ace was free from his role at the company.
Ace arrived shortly in his car, and for the first time in forever, I got into the car without having to look left and right to check if someone was watching us. It felt strange and I was sure that it would take some time for me to get used to this.
“It feels kind of strange that you were the one who organized everything although we’re supposed to be celebrating your last day at the company,” I pointed out while feeling slightly regretful for not doing anything special for him.
