"V-veronica? What are you doing here?" I ask, still a bit surprised to see her standing at the door
She looks me up and down raising an eyebrow, I look down to see what she's looking at it and then I realized I still had Ace's dress shirt on.
That was actually the only thing I had on... with my messy bed hair up in a bun looking like a complete mess
"uh, How'd you get through security?" I ask shaking my head and crossing my arms over my chest
"Im no stranger... and besides, Ace invited me over" she says and walks right in through the door.
I didn't invite you in but okay..
"Ace invited you?" I question, what?
"Oh it's nice to see he took my advice on the rings" she says pointing down to my hand
"Im sorry?" I question looking down at my light blue engagement ring that was stacked beside my wedding band confused as to what she was talking about
"Aren't you supposed to be at work? Why are you here?" she asks ignoring my questions
The audacity-
I let out a scoff "Last time I checked, I'm my own boss, So I can decide when I want to and don't want to be at work.
Also, I live in this house so my question here is...
why are you here Veronica?"
Aren't you the one who left Ace? Why are you all of a sudden coming back.. I say in my head
"I already told you why I'm here, Ace sent me a text and invited me this morning to come over. Wasn't expecting you to be here but unexpected turn of events, which seem to happen a lot with you.
Always full of surprises, like your marriage! Which by the way, I'm not sure how and when it even happened.. " She says in her bitchy high pitched voice
"'Some things don't concern you Veronica, I'm not sure if you were ever told this but the world doesn't evolve around you sweetheart" I fake smile at her.
Then the woman snaps "Sweetheart, I do know one thing.
That you're just one little gold digging whore who never deserved Ace." she says walking closer to me and standing inches away from face, with anger in her eyes.
For the first time ever since I had met Veronica, her words didn't anger me but.. they hurt me.
But I courage up my strength and bite back "Get the fuck out of my house"
She turns with her back towards the stairs and faces me once again
"Don't fucking forget I lived in this house first. We were together for 7 years! 7 WHOLE YEARS! I know him better than any one especially you. Ace and I have a long history.
How long has he known you? A few months? He probably only married you because he was desperate, had no one to care for anymore.
And by the looks of it, even faked his own death to probably get away from you. So don't think you've won because you haven't. I should be the one with him, not you, but ME. Ill prove to him one way or another who you truly are.
Nothing more than a nurse who should be back working at the hospital, disguising your true ugly colours you little b!tc-"
she isn't able to finish her words when we hear Ace's voice fill the room with heaviness and anger
"VERONICA" he yells angrily from behind her
Her eyes widen in shock upon hearing him yell her name as she stares at me. Her eyes filled with fear.
She slowly turns around facing him "A-ace I didn't mean to-"
"I told you once and I'll say it again, don't you EVER meddle into my private life and you most certainly will never talk to my wife like that again" Ace taunts at her with so much anger resonating through him
"I-Im sorry but Ace you've got to believe me! She's not who you think she is, she's a liar and cheater! We were together for 7 years Ace and we've known each other far longer than that so please don't be blinded by her lies" she says coming closer to him
"ENOUGH!" He yells again, and throws a big envelope he was holding to her
"This is why I told you to come" he says with no emotions in his face other than anger
She looks at the envelope confused.. well me and her both-
Taking the envelope and slowly opening it, her eyes get even bigger in shock
"I know you were the one who changed the restaurant address out of Alex's bag. I had security send me video footage and photos from the gala night to confirm and get proof" he says
Taking the pictures out of her hands, I see photos and screenshots of the security video footage of Veronica, switching the envelope out of my bag.
I let out of scoff, of course it would be her.
She doesn't respond or say anything but Ace keeps on going
"Now don't talk to me about trust. WE were finished that moment you left me when I needed you most. YOU threw all of us away, our whole history.
You walked out of my life that day and I don't intend on letting you back in. I invited you here to tell you never to show up at my office or ever come in contact with me or my wife, and looks like you gave me even more reason to do it today" he says
"Ace please, I'm sorry-"
"Get the hell out before things get worse" Ace sneers
She looks at him with pleading eyes. She really did look hurt and sad. Taking a deep breath, she turns on her heel and walks out the door, not looking back. Ace closes the door behind her and I just stand there, not quite sure what happens now-
"Well I'm gonna go shower" I simply say and turn to go upstairs
"Alex wait-" he calls out grabbing onto my arm, I face him but try not to meet his eyes
"Don't let what she said get to you, those were all lies and are not true" he says gently, placing a finger under my chin
"When were you going to tell me about the photos? And that you had invited her over?" I ask
"I knew it probably was her the minute you told me the restaurant address was different but I didn't want to say anything till I got proof. I just received the picture not long ago and messaged her to come over, I didn't expect her to come so soon" he says
I nod my head and give him a soft smile
"okay" I answer, I'm about to turn to leave again but he stops me once more
"Something's still wrong, tell me what's on your mind he says softly, pulling me in his arms.
Letting out a breath, "It's just, are you sure you want her out of your life, especially considering both your history's together? I don't want you only doing this because of me" I say.
All honesty, she was a bitch and after what she had done to him, didn't deserve to ever even come near him. But I respected their history and he knew her better than me to judge, and besides, I wasn't going decide for him.
I just wanted him to know that he doesn't have to do this for me, but should make his own decisions.
He immediately cups my face "Enough of these thoughts Alexandra. She was out of my life before I even met you and I have no sort of connection whatsoever left with her. I want you to know that and understand.
You're the only person who matters to me and your happiness is all I care about.
Besides, no one ever should talk to you the way she did." he says with so much love in his eyes and pulls me in for a hug
I wanted to stay in his arms forever. I felt so safe and warm in his embrace, it was heaven.
I nod my head and pull away, "I should probably go shower now..." I say
He places a kiss on my forehead and pulls away, nodding his head.
Walking up to my old room I was glad most of my clothes were still here so I pull out black jeans and a white flowy top, taking them with me to my bathroom.
After my warm shower, I change into my clothes and blow-dry my hair, leaving my natural waves down after it was dried.
Getting out of my room, I walk to the home office/study to look over my emails and do some work from home, but I hear voices downstairs so I decide to go down first walking into the kitchen, I see Molly humming a tune while cooking so I decide to sneak up behind and give her a hug from behind, surprising her
"I missed you" I say smiling as I hugged her from behind
"Oh my dear Alex!" she exclaims and turns around giving me a proper hug
"I didn't know you were here! When did you get here?" She askS with a big smile on her face
"Ahh ya I'm here! I came last night" I say
"My dear I've missed you so much, you never came to visit! I was so worried about you" she says with worry on her face, pulling me in for another hug
"Im sorry Molly, things just got crazy and I didn't have time" I say
"We'll you could have called at least! It's okay, you're not leaving anymore right?" she asks
"Uh well-" I wasn't sure how to respond. Was I going back to the penthouse? Was I staying here from now on? I wasn't really sure
"No don't tell me your going back, my love this is your home, don't leave again" she says
"She's right Alex, this will always be your home" I hear Ace say from behind me as he walks up to me and places an arm on my waist, pulling me closer to him
I give him a small smile, and look back at Molly, who by the way was also smiling.. probably because of how close Ace and I were at the moment
"I guess I'll move back here" I say
"Oh hunny, It's not like I was going to let you leave again either way.." Molly says, raising an eyebrow at me
"By the way, I like this" she says pointing to Ace and I which makes me blush
"Alright we have work to do.. I'll see you later" I say and give her a kiss on her cheek before Ace and I walk up to the home office.
We spend a few hours replying to emails, making a few phone calls and tying up some last minute files. Closing up my laptop after finishing, I turn in my chair and look over at Ace who had his sleeves rolled up, his hand holding up his head as he was reading a few documents.
He looked so sexy...
"I want to take you out" he mumbles
"...huh?" I ask not quite sure of what he said since I was dazed out staring at his angelic form
"I want to take you out on a date" he says this time looking up at me
Aw a date
"I would love that.. just not a restaurant please, I'm so tired of frickin restaurants" I say letting out a sigh
This past week has all been formal meetings, dinners out and I just wanted to do something different
"Are you still up for bowling?" I ask wiggling my eyebrows
He smiles at my silliness
"Of course I'm up for bowling" he says coping me with his eyebrows
"Then it's settled Mr. Anderson, bowling for 2" I answer, walking towards him and hugging him from behind.
I place a kiss on his cheek, suddenly he stand up from his chair and pulls my legs to wrap around him. Ace was carrying me on his back and I wrap my arms around his shoulders at the sudden movement
"Sounds like a plan Mrs. Anderson" He smiles and I let out a laugh
"Ace put me down!" I say but he only pulls my arms, securing me in place
"Nah, I'd rather not" he says and carries me to his room
"Ace you're crazy!" I yell out and bury my head on his neck as he continues carrying me
"Crazy for you" he answers
