Chapter 157


    This particrpany made the news before, and I


    remembered seeing it. The rest of the logos, I wasn’t familiar with and were


    probablypanies from abroad. Regardless, I knew that these were logos of the


    Looking at things from years before I actually met Ace, I


    realized that there were so many things that I didn’t know about him. He also


    never spoke to me about anything about his past. As I ran a fingertip along the


    metal te, I realized that I wanted to learn even more about Ace. In fact, I


    wanted to know every single thing about him.


    I turned around and my eyesnded on a small door that was


    camouged into the wall. The door wasn’t exactly hidden but the smoothness of


    it and the color made it blend in super well with the wall that it seemed like


    it was supposed to be a secret door. The door drew my interest immediately;


    however, when I tried to open it, I found that it was locked.


    Well, too bad.


    I guess somethings are off-limits after all. Either that or


    this is just a messy storage room that he didn’t want visitors to see. That thought


    brought a giggle to my lips.


    Turning my attention away from the small, locked door, my


    eyes fell to therge bookcase that was loaded with files instead of books.


    Everything was so well organized that I felt bad touching the documents there. I


    had guessed that the files must be work rted, but I never thought that they


    would contain some of Ace’s older works.


    These are not exactly that old, though. After a closer


    inspection, I found that the documents were not very interesting and were


    probably not prepared by Ace. Because all the documents gathered endless public


    praise for his work, I knew by instinct that Ace wouldn’t have gathered up


    documents like this.


    “Enjoying the tour?”


    I turned at the sound of the familiar voice that I had been


    eagerly waiting to hear. Ace stood with his back leaning against the door frame


    as his eyes observed me. His lips curved up into a teasing smile and that made


    me feel a wave of relief wash over me. I guess things didn’t turn out badly


    with his father.


    “Well, yes. Sorry for walking around like this…” I replied a


    little shyly.


    “Don’t be sorry. I did tell you take a look around and treat


    this ce like your own home,” Ace replied like it was nothing.


    “Umm…how was the meeting with the Chairman?” I asked


    timidly.


    “Not great but it wasn’t bad either. Overall, he’s fine with

    the n that I have in mind,” Ace said before grinning at me.


    “Isn’t that already considered a great oue?” I asked excitedly.


    “Well, maybe…” Ace muttered.


    If I didn’t know Ace, I would have thought that he was just


    saying that to seem humble; however, I knew that he was probably trying to be


    honest.


    “What were you looking at?” Ace asked as he approached me.


    His eyes quickly scanned the documents on the bookshelf


    before he heaved a sigh. I nced up at his face to see him staring down at


    me.


    “Umm…is something wrong?” I asked hesitantly.


    “Why are you wasting your time looking at all this junk?


    Leave it alone,” Ace said as he pulled the document that I was holding out of


    my hand.


    He swiftly ced it back on the shelf before taking my hand


    in his and dragging me away from where we were standing. It seemed like Ace


    wasn’t a big fan of what were on the bookshelf. I wasn’t surprised at all that


    he didn’t like it, but I didn’t think that he would be this affected.


    “Why are you so bothered? Any dirty secrets in there?” I


    asked teasingly as followed after him.


    “Not at all,” Ace replied without hesitation.


    I felt the strength of his arms around me as he wrapped is arms


    around my waist from behind and drew me closer to him. He was so close and soon


    my back was pressed against his taller and harder frame. It felt like a


    peaceful moment as we stood there and just enjoyed each other’spany. Ace


    ced a soft and fleeting kiss on the side of my neck as his hands began stroking


    the curves of my waist.


    “Ace…” I murmured.


    “You should pay more attention to me rather than those


    useless papers…” Ace muttered close to my ear with a hint of dissatisfaction in


    his voice.


    “Umm…I was just wondering what you were like. You know, when


    you were younger. When you just started working and before we met…” I said in


    wonder.


    “Why does it matter? We’re together now. I’d rather pay more


    attention to the present than the past,” Ace replied casually.


    He turned me around in his arms and then bent down to press


    his lips firmly against mine. I closed my eyes as I sighed from the pleasure of


    his kiss. His arms around me felt rxing and I didn’t want this moment to


    end. Maybe he was right, and the past didn’t matter. His kiss was truly distracting


    and served as a great reminder for me to focus more on the present.


    I parted my lips invitingly and Ace thrusted his wet and


    warm tongue into my mouth while I moaned into our kiss. He grinded his tongue


    against mine and I began kissing him back as fervently. Hisrge hand cupped


    the side of my face as he tilted my head back to control the angle of our kiss.


    His tongue invading my mouth felt hot and my body started to feel weak. Ace


    supported my body with his arm as he continued to kiss me deeply from various


    angles.


    “Mhhmmm…” I moaned passionately into our hot and wild kiss.


    “There’s something I’ll rather be doing with you rather than


    going through my old work files…” Ace said after he broke our kiss.
