Ace Roberts POV

At Bar

"Hey man. How are you? Long time no see" Nathan my best friend asked me..

I smiled at him..

"Yeah buddy. It is long time. Anyway I am good how are you?" I asked him back..

"I am good too man. So, how is your company going?" He asked me..

"Good. I had a meeting with Alina today" I told him and sip my wine..

"Buddy, Don't tell me. You fell for that bitch. I just hate her" Nathan told me making a face..

I chucked at him and speak up," Do not worry man. I am not the old Ace, who use to fell for wrong girl. Alina was of my one night stand nothing else"

Nathan looked at me hearing this and speaks up," Buddy, you used to hate this one night stand. You used to say you will only love a girl. Forget that past buddy"

Hearing him I stop sipping my wine and looked at him..

"I used to hate many thing Nathan. But those things I used to hate already happened to me. She changed everything. Her betrayal was enough to show the face of girls. They just loves money nothing else. Just because you got your true love you can not claim that every person get it"

Hearing this he sighed and starts sipping his wine..

"When you are planning to go New York?" I asked him..

"Tomorrow. Your sister already threatened me if I will not go tomorrow, she will broke up with me" Nathan told me and I smiled at him..

Yeah my sister Caroline and Nathan is going to marry next month..

"Will you go this time?" He asked me..

"Yeah. I will go this time. It is time to take over our company. I will go with you tomorrow" I told him..

"Coro, will be very happy. Now let's go it is already 12 at night. Let's go home" Nathan told me..

"No. You go. I have some work" I told him..

"Work? Do you think I am mad? I know you are going to pick a girl from here" Nathan told me..

I smirked at him and looked towards the girls who are looking at me since I entered the bar..

Nathan shook his head and left from bar..

As soon he left a girl approaches to Ace with a glass of wine..

"Hey hoti, want to spend sometime alone" She told me seductively..

I smirked at her and took the glass of wine. The drank in a go.

"Sure, why not" I told and dragged her outside...


 

And the other hand

In New York

"Are you serious, Caroline? Is he going come here this time?" Bella asked Caroline excitingly lika a kid..

Caroline smiled at her best friend and speaks up," Yeah. He is coming. He will come with Nathan tomorrow. Will you come with me to receive them from airport?"

Bella got nervous hearing this. She starts biting her lower lip. It is her childhood habit. Whenever she gets nervous or sad she starts biting her lip..

Seeing her biting lips Caroline smiled and speaks up," Hey, do not need to worry. My brother will not eat you up. And if you are nervous then you do not need to come. You can meet him in birthday party only"

Hearing this Bella looked at her while still biting her lip..

"No. I want to come. I want to see him. And most importantly I do not want to give some stupid girl to think he is single" Bella speaks up in her innocent yet possessive tone..

Hearing this Caroline starts laughing and Bella looked at her confusingly..

"Why you are laughing?" Bella asked her..

"Nothing. I just remembered how you act when my brother first went to date with Katrina. You spoiled their first date" Caroline told her..

Bella just blushed hard remembering that..

"Okay. Lover girl. I will pick up you at 8. Be ready" Caroline told her and get in her car then drive away..

Bella entered her home and found her mom sitting on her dad's lap talking with each other happily..

Bella smiled looking at them and went upstairs..

Entering her room Bella sits on her bed and start thinking about that day Ace went on his first date with that bad girl and how she spoiled it..

 

10 Years Ago
 

"Angelina when Ace will come? I will show him my painting?" Ten years old Bella asked her older sister Angelina..

Angelina and Ace are best friend. Though Angelina is few years older than Ace but still they are best friend. Ace like to spend Angelina. He see her like his older sister..

Angelina looked at her cute sister and speaks up," Bella, he will not come here today sweetheart"

Hearing this Bella pouted sadly and speaks up," Why? Is he angry on me?"

Angelina made Bella sits beside her and speaks up softly," No dear. He is not angry on you"

"Then why he will not come today?" Bella asked her again..

"He has a date tonight dear. Maybe he just come here to give me some notes or maybe not. I am not sure" Angelina told her..

"Date? What is date?" Bella asked her innocently..

"Date means he is going to spend sometime with a girl. They will eat together and no that's all" Angelina told her feelings awkward..

"Then I want to go on a date too. I want to go the same place he will go" Little Bella told her. She Bella did not understand what is date but she just understood that Ace is going outside with a girl. And it is enough for her..

Hearing her Angelina smiled and starts caressing her hair..

"Sweetheart when you will become big you can go on a date. But not now" Angelina told her..

"No. Why I can not go. You just said date means just spend some time and eat together. So, I want to go" Bella told her..

"But sweetheart, you need a boy to go on a date" Angelina tried to convince her..

"Then ask Ace to take me with him to. I want to go with him" Bella told her..

Hearing this Angelina got shocked..

"Sweetheart, you can not go with them" Angelina told her..

"No. I will go. You tell him to take me with him too. I will not disturb him" Bella told him..
