💦 Ace 💦
I was a new person.
Well...I looked like a new person.
Faking my death at first seemed like a great idea. I was able to change who I was, become a new person. It wasn't until I heard what Ashley had to say and how much my death had affected Alex.
The whole time I've been away, I couldn't stop thinking of her. I knew that if I ever wanted to really be with her, I would have to become someone else. I couldn't continue being the arrogant 'Ace Anderson' who in her eyes was a spoiled
"Son of a bitch"
I take the blame for that, I was really cold towards her when she first came and was working for me.
I hated myself, I couldn't continue living like that. Which is why I took the opportunity to become someone else.
To get back onto my feet and hopefully win Alex over now as a new person. Someone who she will truly love.
Was I out of my mind? Yes.
After my recovery, I flew back to New York and purchased a small apartment in the city. I have a private account that I kept for emergency's that no one except myself, knew about.
I was no longer Ace Anderson. He was dead, to me and to the world. Now, I was Liam. Liam Wilson.
The past couple of months since I've moved back to
New York, I was impressed to hear in the media how
Anderson Tech had grown and that Alex was now working there. I wasn't surprised. I knew she had it in her. She was a smart young woman.
However, I wasn't aware that she had been through so much pain after my death. I didn't realize it would affect her much since we had just met.
Not to mention, I was leaving her my whole fortune after my death. Any girl would be Happy right?
Walking out of Ashley's office, I am taken aback to see
Alexandra right in front of me, she looked beautiful. She is also caught a bit off-guard as we make eye contact for a brief moment.
When she walks by me and into the doctor's room, I turn to look at Dr. Ashley before he closes the door. What the fuck was I doing with my life?
"Sir, would you like to book a follow-up appointment?" Janice the secretary asks me
"No I'm fine" I answer and take a seat near the window
I can't help but think about what I had done. I had thrown away my life and literally bought a new one.
However, was it a good thing? Was this a good new start for me or was I only doing more damage?
I needed fresh air. I walk to the elevator and get in to go downstairs. As the doors are about to close, someone stops them.
I look up and see those beautiful light brown eyes staring into mine. Her long dark brown hair was curled and framed her face.
She was beautiful. It felt unreal seeing Alexandra once again.
She lets out a soft "Hi" and walks in the elevator. The doors close and I can't help myself but continue to look at her.
She was wearing dark blue dress pants and a black blazer with heels. It looked like she had come from work. Not the hospital but MY work. Well, now it was HER Company.
After a moment, she looks down and avoids eye contact.
Did she know it was me? of course not you idiot, you're dead remember?! Not to mention, I look like a completely different person!
The elevator doors open and she immediately gets out.
I take my time and exit the building, I see her getting into her car. It used to be MY car. It was the white Tesla.
I loved that car.
Now that I'm back, I need to find a way to introduce myself to Alex. I have to get her to fall for me. But how exactly am I going to do that?
I wake up the next morning and notice its 1:30 pm. Well without a job and without having much to do, all I do is sleep.
It was nice being free, doing whatever the hell I wanted whenever I wanted. Before I was always being suffocated with my company and I hated my life. Now, I felt free. I still felt like something was missing though.
I spend the next few hours keeping myself busy by looking for possible job opportunities.
Even though I had money, I still needed a job to do something. But what?
I put my computer aside and decide to take a drive around the city. I grab the keys to my Black Mercedes and start to drive to wherever the hell I was gonna end up. It was around 5 pm so it was rush hour.
Rush hour in New York City was not a good thing. I drive and drive and try to get out of the city. I find myself going away from the city and eventually pulling up the old driveway to my house.
There I was, facing the gates to what used to be MY home. Where Ace lived. Where his widowed wife Alex lives. The gates were locked and wouldn't open without the pin. I try my old pin just to see if Alex had changed it.
The gates open. Wow, guess the pin code is still the same..
I drive up to the front of the mansion and notice the white tesla parked at the front which meant Alex was probably home.
I park the car and decide to walk around the house. I walk to the garden near the kitchen door. The flowers and the view were beautiful. I never got to truly appreciate what a beautiful home I had.
I spent way too many hours at the office and only came home to sleep. I never got to enjoy life as Ace. I take in the beautiful view of the far off city and let the sun that was setting light my face.
All of a sudden I am startled when someone taps my shoulder "Sir may I help you?" I turn and see Molly ask me
"Oh, geez sorry I dazed off with the beautiful view and lost track of time" I answer
"That's alright, you are a bit early but please come to the front and I will let Mrs. Anderson know you are here," she says.
Wait what? I think she has mistaken me for someone else..
"Wait Mo-" I stop myself, I'm not supposed to know
Molly's name, shit.
"Ahem, sorry mam, I just want to confirm if I'm at the right place... " I start to say
"The agency sent you for the chauffeur job correct?" She asks
Chauffeur? Job?
Maybe this will give me an opportunity to introduce myself to Alex by working for her...
"Yes correct. Chauffeur job interview that is what I'm here for!"I answer and follow her to the front of the house.
She welcomes me into the house and tells me to wait as she calls Alex down. It was a bit weird to hear Alex being referred to as "Mrs. Anderson". I guess I need to get used to it from now on.
A few minutes later, I hear footsteps coming down the stairs
"Sorry for the wait, I wasn't expecting you to arrive so soon.
The agency said you would be here at 7 pm and I was just finishing up with a call so I'm sorry to keep you waiting" I hear that dulcet voice get closer and closer as she walks down the stairs.
"It's fine" I answer
She finally looks up and a surprised expression overcomes her face "Y-you. Your the guy from the elevator yesterday" she says
"uh ya, my name is Liam" I say and extend my arm, she shakes it and introduces herself
"Nice to officially meet you, Liam, I'm Alexandra but please call me Alex"
Alexandra. What a beautiful name she had.
"Please follow me inside," she says and walks me towards one of the living rooms.
I take a quick glance around the house and notice that everything is still the same. She hasn't changed anything, everything was as I had left it.
"Would you like anything to drink? Some tea, coffee?" she askS as we sit down
"Im alright thank you" I answer
"So you're hiring a chauffeur, what happened with Gary?" I ask
"You know Gary?" she asks surprised.
Fuck. I forgot I'm not supposed to know Gary. Shit.
"Yes, we worked in the same agency," I say
"Oh that's nice," she says with a bright smile
"Gary retired last year shortly after my husband's death," she says with a sad expression.
Wow, Gary has been gone for so long. Seeing Alex sad broke my heart. How I wish I could tell her it was me, Ace. I was here, I wasn't dead but was right here.
She continues to talk "I didn't hire a replacement for Gary after he left since I was able to manage for myself, I like to drive so I wasn't in need of a driver.
However, my team is insisting I hire a chauffeur for the gala that is less than 2 weeks away. So I was thinking of just keeping you around" Alex says as she pulls out a few papers from a file that was with her.
"Here are the documents and contracts, please take your time to read them over," she says and hands me the papers.
What was I getting myself into? Do I sign? Do I lie to Alex even more about who I truly am?
This was the only way to get a fresh new start with her.
Well then, I guess This is just the beginning.
