The Trap Of Ace
Chapter 39
Read The Trap Of Ace [by Eva Zahan] Chapter 39 – “What’s wrong with him? I don’t know how can this insane man impress you that much?” Warner asked, baffled.
Sending him a look, I walked back to my bed and plopped down on it.
“What’s going on here, Em? Will you tell me now?” he queried again. “Did you two already break up?”
“We were never together for the break up you’re talking about.”
“Then?” Raising his brow, he probed me to explain further.
Sighing, I told him everything. And he listened, taking a seat beside me.
But I kept some of the parts from him. Ace’s past, especially his being a d**g addict back then. It felt wrong to disclose his extremely personal and sore past to Warner. So I kept that part left out. Instead I told him after Ace’s father’s d***h, he went into depression and decided to push me away from him taking my sister’s help.
It was all I could come up with.
Taking everything in, he just watched me for a moment.
“If he wanted you away from him then why is he after you now?”
“Because now he thinks he can take me back into his life,” gritting my teeth, I replied. When he was lost into d***s, he thought it was better if I was away from him. And now that he was stable again, he wanted me back. I wasn’t a freaking toy that he could toss around like that. It was my life to decide, not his.
He took my decision away from me. The decision if I wanted to stand beside him even after knowing his secret or not.
The sharp pain shot through my chest again. How could he do this to me?
“No matter whatever his reasons were, Em. He shouldn’t have done it. Breaking your heart like that… how could he be so inconsiderate towards the girl he claimed to care for so much?” Discontent flashed across his eyes as he shook his head.
I averted my gaze as a tear slipped down my cheek.
Wiping the tear away, he grabbed my hands. “If a person causes you that much pain, you should let them go, Em. Your tears are too precious to be shed for a person that doesn’t even care if you’re hurt or not.”
When I didn’t answer, he tucked a strayed lock behind my ear. “No matter for how long you guys have known each other or have feelings for each other, no one can love you more than I do, Em. I would never hurt you like that.” His voice came out soft.
Snatching my hands from his hold, I put some distance between us. “Warner, please. I think we already talked about this.”
Even hearing him eliciting his feelings for me now made me feel at discomfort.
Hurt flashed across his eyes, but he masked it soon as he sent me a look of apology. “I’m sorry. I- uh, I couldn’t just stop myself.”
“It’s alright. I can understand. But please, Warner, I don’t want any awkwardness between our friendship with these kinds of topics.” Looking down, I twirled my bracelet.
He nodded, flashing me a sad smile. “Don’t worry. I’ll be careful from now on.”
