The Last Laugh

Chapter 64 - Hurt

***

Ace's POV:

I stormed into my apartment, throwing my gun in the corner of the room. Keith came in right behind me.

"Calm down, pal," he put a hand on my shoulder and we both sat down.

"I didn't get any information from that bastard! Can you imagine that?? You should've let me shoot him!" I yelled angrily.

"Shoot him? So you would go to jail for murder, allowing Christina to rule your company and allowing Heather in another man's arms? So all you fought for so far would be meaningless? Yeah, I should've probably let you shoot the idiot!" Keith said with sarcasm.

I stared at the floor, tears welling up my eyes. Keith stared at me.

"Everything will be fine, Ace."

"He recognised me."

"What?"

"He said I had my father's eyes."

"Yes, but he doesn't know your face. He doesn't even know you. He does not know you work in that company."

I looked at Keith.

"Yeah, but he'll tell Christina I'm alive."

"They already consider him crazy. They won't believe him. Let's wait and see what tomorrow holds."

Heather's POV:

The next day I was back in California. Ace didn't know. I was going to surprise him at work. Gosh, I had so much to tell him and plus, I'd missed him a lot. At first, I'd planned to wait for him in his apartment until he returned, because I had the double of his keys. But then I changed my mind. I was going to surprise him at the office.

Ace's POV:

While I worked the next day, I kept my mind on Heather. I missed her so much. I wanted her back in my arms. I needed her more than I'd ever done.

While I thought, the images on my laptop caught my attention.

Elijah and Rob had just entered Christina's office.

"What are you doing here? I told both of y'all to call whenever you'd want to pass by! Didn't I??" Christina asked angrily.

Both men took their seats.

"I'm sorry Christina, but this idiot!" Rob pointed at Elijah, "Is claiming false things!".

"I am not!"

Christina shut them both.

"Ask him yourself."

She turned to Elijah.
