Touching the Heart of Ace

Chapter 83

"There is no going back. I have no idea what you are talking about Robbie. Tell me."

"Who is he?"

I tsk??ed. I was done with his jealousy. I had no idea who he was talking about.

"You tell me. We have talked about this remember?"

Some other man in my life! I shook my head.

I pulled up my shorts and went to bathroom to freshen up. So much for sleeping.

Stupid Robbie and his stupid jealousy. I smiled fondly.

I could barely walk after he was done with me. If I had someone else in my bed, I would push him off and get myself some well-deserved sleep.

I rolled my mental eyes.

I was washing my face when he hugged me from behind. I cleaned up fast and turned around in his arms.

"What is it? Please tell me this is not about Russell."

"No. I like Russel; he loves Naomi."

I chuckled. He liked Russel because he loved Naomi.

Then who else? No one was touchy feely with me.

I pushed Robbie. "Robbie, you are worried about Kenneth? Oh baby, that guy is the mother hen. He touches everyone like that. Even you got a pat on your head..."

[Kenneth is just some guy. Don't sweat your head over this, y'all.]

I walked back to bed to change the sheets.

Robbie chuckled. "No, I like Kenneth too. He is a good kid. He worries about everyone."

Then who was it?

"Do you know a Marcus?" Robbie held the pillows I handed him.

Marcus? There was a Marcus at the party?

"Not really, no. New guy? You know, Jason is in charge of people."

"Tall, looks Mexican, from your advertisement and marketing department."

"Mark?"

Robbie ground his teeth.

"Yes, he was there in the party. We briefly talked. But I do not know him. Just a new guy. Olivia introduced him. Looked friendly though. Why? I told you that a guy named Mark came and asked me about my business investments. What about him?"

[Olivia is Ace's marketing head. She helped him sell his protein drink. Remember?]

"Nothing."

"His name was Marcus? He told me Mark. Maybe I did not listen well, the music was so loud. What about him? Don't you dare close off now, Robbie."

"He told you his name was Mark?"

"Yeah."

"You do not call him Mark because he is special?"

I was sure I looked annoyed. Robbie hid his head on my chest. He pushed me until I fell on bed with him on top. He did not move further though.

"Robbie, Big Baby, tell me. What is it?"

Saying Robbie was a jealous person, was saying blue whale a slightly big animal. He had to know my calls and texts, and glare at people who stood close to me. He just had to make sure no one was getting to me without him knowing to steal me away from him.

"Did that guy say something?" I rubbed his head and pressed a kiss on forehead.

He nodded.

"What did he say?"

"That only special people in his life calls him Mark."

I snorted. I let him continue.

"I remembered your talking about him. So, when we were introduced, I called him Mark. Then he told me to call him Marcus and only special people got to call him like that. He told me that you found him special and capable of handling your company's advertisement campaign alone."

"And you believed him?" I did not know if I should hug and kiss him or smack his head for being this stupid.

"No."

Then?

He mumbled.

"What?"

"He said that you are going to France with him for the campaign."

This stupid idiot of mine. I squeezed him hard but could not stop my giggles.

"How could you believe something idiotic as that, Robbie! When have I ever gone to that kind of stuff? And that too without telling my family!"

"I did not believe it then. But when Jason announced that you might go with them if their performance was good...I got scared..."

"You got scared someone else knew something that big about me before you could hear it from myself."

The big baby on my chest nodded.

"Big Baby look at me."

God! He looked so troubled.

"Love." I kissed his lips. "First of all, Marcus lied. I did not tell him that he was capable of handling the company's advertisement campaign alone. Jason does that kind of stuff, you know it. May be he is that good or he blows up gas, I do not know. Second, he told me his name was Mark. And I have no intention to call him that if it is his nickname. Then, Big Baby, Jason was taunting me. He knows how I would never leave you or Lia for a business campaign that might last a month. Even if I wanted, you would be the one who would take me. He was making fun of me for that."

Jason started picking on me when we were having drinks. I hoped no one else had a brother who would be relentlessly annoying only because he was missing you! He casually suggested I could get on a jet and go to France that night.

Snort!

I had two babies to think about. Both of them would turn this whole world upside down if they could not find me.

So he called me a female reproductive organ.

I called him a male reproductive organ back.

Then we both went off to our merry ways; but the annoying idiot made fun of me on stage. Look what that did to Silly Daddy.

I shook my head. There was not a day I spent alone. Lia and Robbie would be miserable without me. Like how I would be miserable without them even for a day. God knew how I managed to keep calm when she went off to care centre.

I had once tried to be away from Robbie and that was not something I want to go through again.

"Take me to the award ceremony next week." I decided.

"I thought we were not going."

"We were not. But now we are. I have to make something straight."

Nobody was making my Robbie miserable. So this was what happened yesterday night at the party.

There was so much pain that came with being a boss. I was nominated for the Young Responsible Entrepreneur Award and Master-Tech Genius of the Decade Award; both were, honestly not a big deal.

It was given out by other business men to butter up new business men, so they would not be able to say no to future collaboration.

Well, I was not planning on changing my business partners or my ethics to fit in. So we had gone to yesterday's party, and then out of nowhere a strong hand fucking groped my ass like a stress ball.

I was done with fake pleasantries and smiles before five minutes were up. Jason was good at these things and he wanted me here because this was apparently good for our business.

'But my 'Slave, these are bad for our life' was left ignored.

Meanie!

Anyways I somehow managed to stay there for three hours.

Yaaaay me!!!

Then I went out to the balcony looking at the stars and thinking how beautiful they were and...

That palm fell on my right butt cheek and that lips latched on my neck.

God!

I knew that touch and I knew that desperation.

"Fuck!"

I knew that voice too.

"Bas... tard..." I mumbled out. "Let go..."

"So tempting..." The voice growled and I moaned.

"You might wanna keep that hand to yourself, Mister. My man is a jealous bastard and he might chop off your hand." I whispered while turning around; the hand still kneading the f out of me.

"Your man sounds pretty smart." Warm puffs of breath fell on my lips and I shook my head.

"Pretty psychotic, you mean? Yes, he is. But what can I do? I fell hopelessly in love with him."

I felt the replying smile on cheek but he yanked me by my hand to take me somewhere.

"Well, he must be hopelessly in love with you too."

"Rob...hmmph..." He pushed me to the wall of a dark empty corner behind the building...

... and had his way with me.

"Remember our comic con. You got fucked like this in a bathroom stall... I will do it again..."

I saw that crazy in his eyes.

The crazy I had in my own eyes too.

I bit my lips and hid my face behind my palms facing the wall.

He just...

And I just...

I should have known something had spiked this behaviour. Yet, I did not catch up to it.

But I felt so vulnerable after the escapade. I felt... like he did not care about me. Had it been a couple of years before, I would have walked away feeling torn and used, making myself believe that it was true. I was just someone to...

But... no... this man loved me, may be even more than I loved him.

So I took his hand and placed it on my face before kissing it.

"Angel..." He hugged me.

The vulnerability in me slowly fading away to strength.

"I cannot believe you did this to me. If this comes on newspaper, you are sleeping on couch for rest of your life." I whined.

"You are mine."

"You doubt that?" I bit his chin.

He stared at me for solid two minutes before smiling.

"Not one bit."

We sneaked away from the party, found a park nearby, climbed over the fence and... simply lied on the grass looking up the sky... like two boys who were secretly in love.

"So beautiful, Daddy."

"Yeah. So beautiful." I swatted his face away when I noticed he was looking at me.

We talked nonsense.

From my turning to an alien to Robbie being an adorable bunny in his past life to Lia going to college soon and... whatnot...

Then we had gone home, taking a bus, leaving our car behind without telling Jason or Nick... and laughed like maniacs when we received their distressed calls in the early hours of morning; hushing each other because our little baby was sleeping on the other room.

We did not sleep a wink last night.

Yet, I did not catch up that my man was insecure and searching for love. Thankfully, I was able to shower him all the attention and love without even noticing it.

I had decided we would not be attending the award ceremony; one of the reasons why we attended the party last night so we would not cross with other powerful people.

More power you have, more susceptible to pettiness; or so I have learned from my life with Robbie.

I did not care how good that guy, Marcus, was in advertising or whatever. I was not letting that kind of manipulative assholes who meddle with my family in my own company. Jason would understand and Olivia had no say in this, because Jason was her boss.

I had to be there to make it happen or Jason would think Robbie was just being silly... again. This time he was not, though, and I would not ignore his pain.

"So, we are going, okay?"

I felt another nod on my chest. "Whatever you say."

I smiled.
