The Trap Of Ace

Read The Trap Of Ace [by Eva Zahan] Chapter 70 – Six men stood there in the middle of the room. Before Arthur, stood a man in his early fifties with short height, a thin mustache on his upper lip and a shining bald. Four more much younger men surrounded him with the same black clothes the guards wore before the VVIP entrance.

The way they stood behind and around that bald man, indicated theirs being his men.

And obviously working with Arthur.

“Pozdravlyayu, Mr. Valencian,” said the man with his thick Russian accent. His mustache twitched as a smirk tugged onto his dark lips.

Arthur shook his hand with his. “Congratulations to us, Ivanov. After all, it’s the result of both of ours hard work.”

I frowned.

Ivanov? Why did this name sound familiar…

My lips parted in shock. Ivanov, one of the partners of the Russian company Ace was going to sign the deal with.

He was with Arthur? Oh G*d!

And what are they congratulating each other about?

That Russian shook his head. “Nah, I just helped you for the sake of my friendship with Antonio and the promise you gave me. All the planning was yours. And finally, that nephew of yours signed the contract. I was starting to doubt your plan, but seems like your nephew trusts his uncle blindly.”

A silent gasp slipped my lips. With my hand over my mouth, I stood there shocked.

Ace signed the contract? But, how? I sent Carter to stop him. Didn’t get my message?

Oh no! S**t!

This shouldn’t have happened! Why did Ace sign it? He should’ve waited for me.

Or was I already late? Maybe he signed even before I arrived here?

A feeling of failure and disappointment ran through me.
