The Trap Of Ace

Chapter 44

Read The Trap Of Ace [by Eva Zahan] Chapter 44 – A soft chuckle left him. “Of course, Rosebud. Nothing will happen to me. I’m just stating facts.”

“Then it’s a really absurd fact! And you’ll emotionally blackmail me to get me into your court now? Because that’s not happening!”

“I’m not blackmailing you. And what’s done is done. It’s not negotiable anymore.”

My lips pressed tight. “What if I run away with all your money?”

Another laugh. “You can take anything you want, baby. Everything is yours. Just make sure you also take me along. Because I can’t live without you.”

I could feel my cheeks and neck heating up again at his cheeky response. Now he was flirting with me?

Unbelievable man!

I wiggled out of his arms. “Whatever you say, I’ll make you take everything back from me. Or I will give it back to you!”

He quirked a brow. “It’s non reversal, Rosebud.”

“We’ll see!” Huffing, I turned around and walked away.

“Where are you going?”

His footsteps behind me reached my ears.

“At the meeting. With the responsibility you gave me, do I have any other choice?” I replied, without stopping at my track.

“Right. But what about my forgiveness? You didn’t still forgive me.”

“I said I’d consider. And you didn’t agree to my second punishment.”

He groaned. “Well, they were more like conditions. But yes, agreeing to them was a punishment to me.”

“As if you agreed to both of them!” I taunted. “So there won’t be any forgiveness!”

“Now that’s not fair, Rosebud. I agreed to one even though it was too much for me to do. And the second one wasn’t negotiable.” He continued to walk after me down the hallway outside of his cabin.

“It’s absolutely fair. The deal was for two conditions, and you only agreed to one.”

“I can still keep my men after you, you know?”
