“I met Elizabeth that day,” Ace replied without betraying any emotions.
My heart just sank at his words although I should have felt a little better for the fact that he still told me the truth. Ace didn’t show any signs that he was going to explain himself or his actions to me and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to hear any more truth from him. Suddenly, it felt like my frail little heart wouldn’t be able to take it after all.
“Why did you meet up with her? You told me that something urgent happened at work. Why did you lie?” I asked as I tried to suppress the tears that were threatening to well up in my eyes.
“I wasn’t lying. Something did happen at work,” Ace replied flatly.
“Why didn’t you just tell me that you were going to meet up with her?” I asked as I glared at him.
“Rina, if you’re going to get all emotional about this, I suggest that you stop this and go to bed,” Ace advised sternly.
