CHAPTER 32
Ivy Jean Pov
Ace and I were just standing here by the door as we watched the other talking on the sofa. When all of a sudden, my foolish boyfriend looked at us.
“Ivy babes, what are you doing there? Come here.” he said.
I looked at Ace and wait for her reaction. When I saw her nodded, I decided to approach them along with her.
After we sat on the sofa, we crossed our arms. I’m wearing a fake smile while Ace had no emotion.
I looked at the newcomer who introduced herself as Bella. Her eyes are now staring at Ace while trying keep pace its gaze. The two sat quietly as if they’re talking with their emotionless eyes.
I can’t believe there is someone who can keep up with Ace’s eyes. I have been Ace’s shadow for a long time, but I haven’t yet encountered a person like this one.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Yup. I’ve known Ace for a long time, I know everything about her and I am always the one who secretly guarding her.
I also know that he stayed in the forest where she fell into a coma.
I was just late then. And I didn’t know that she had a plan to commit suicide.
FLASH BACK
I am here today in the middle of a discussion with the Phoenix Gang Leader, none other than Parker West Dowson.
“Parker, I told you to always be careful with your actions, didn’t I?” I asked to him coldly while looking away. We are here now in the park. I was leaning against the tree while he was standing here in front of me.
“Cousin. I didn’t know it was going to happen.” he said and seemed to be very annoyed with himself.
He’s my causin in my mom side but I didn’t think that the Scorpion Gang, the fifth gang in the underground, can trick him up.
“You don’t know? So how did you become the leader of the Phoenix Gang if you were this easy to trick? All you have to do is to enter the Wolf Gang. I let you do that because I knew it was a very simple task for someone like you, but how come this happened?” I asked at him calmly.
“Fine! That will never happen again.” he said with annoyance visible in his tone.
“Show some respect to me Parker! You may have forgotten that I am still older than you.” I said seriously.
I’m just talking about how Scorpion Gang Fool this stupid man beside me.
“I’m leaving.” he said then immediately ran outward. Maybe he noticed that I was already angry. Yeah, that guy is scared at me.
I just watched him go through his way out until he gradually disappeared from my sight. After that, I left as well and got on my motorbike.
As I started my motor, the clock in my left hand suddenly rang. “Sh*t” I thought. I knew that sound, it sounds like she was in danger. So I hurried and followed the location where she was.
When I arrived. I quickly got off my motor but I couldn’t find her. Only her motorbike was there.
END OF FLASHBACK
It took three days before I found her. I saw her at the house of Peterson family.
I didn’t introduce myself to them and just watched Ace from afar. Sometimes I visited her but only in a secret way. I can’t just show up myself to that family. Co’z I knew that if I do that, they might get involved with the people who wants to kill Ace.
From the very beginning, Ace really don’t like me being around here all the time, she just really can’t do anything. And during the time I was her shadow, she never became my friend. She don’t want it. She said it would just be a burden to her. I think that’s because she didn’t know that I can kill people to protect myself.
Only now did we have a good conversation but just like before, he was still cold.
I came back to reality when Bella suddenly spoke.
“Who are you?” he coldly asked Ace while still continuing their no ending stare.
“Ahh, wife she’s Ace. M-my a-assistant, yeah assistant. ” Vladimir lied.
“Assistant ay ass.” I said to myself. And in a short time, Ace’s aura suddenly gets colder. “This getting Interesting” I added while the smirk never left my lips.
“Assistant huh?” I know that Ace said was sarcastic. I looked at Vladimir but he just dodged his gaze.
Vladimir Moon Ludwig, the superior of the Empire Organization. I know that he has plans for acting fool like this-that he loves to play with a deadly trick. I also knew that he’s just keeping the game in pace. “Make your enemy close to you” they say.
“Your assistant? Then how come she’s here? ” Bella’s voice became different as well as her emotion. It stopped from being cold like it must be. Tsk. What a stupid woman. How come she got caught easily on the game she started! I guess she’s not that good enough at pretending.
When she noticed that everyone was stunned, her aura suddenly change and returned on being cold.
“Why are you stunned?” she asked like nothings happened. A smirk quickly played on my lips as I shook my head.
“Why are you all so serious?” Zakya suddenly asked in an innocent voice.
Zakya is really innocent, no matter where you look. He had no knowledge around him. But I liked her for being pure innocent. She’s not like the other woman who likes to pretend innocent.
“Don’t mind them Baby, just look at my handsome face.” Beckett said to Zakya then Zakya’s attention immediately turned to him.
Tsk. Beckett is really like that. He’s too obsessed with Zakya. If she’s just not that innocent, I think she might have broken up with him. Sometimes, it can also be constrictive.
“I’m Ace Superior Vlad’s Assistant” I know that it was against her heart when she said it but her cold voice is still there.
“Okay I’m Y-Yza Bella Mondragon” Bella introduce herself. Then a playful game suddenly came up on my mind.
“Oh! So your bella? The dead wife of Vladimir? How come you lived? Don’t tell me to got up from your pit? ” I asked her jokingly.
She was stunned, I noticed it. She was about to speak when I quickly spoke again. “I’m just teasing you, don’t be serious” I play a fake smile as told her that. Then in a swift, she glared a me. But that won’t work for me.
We’re all silent when suddenly her phone rang on his pocket.
“Excuse me I just need to answer this call.” she said coldly and went outside to answer the calller.
I stood up, then Emerson quickly looked at me.
“Babes where are you going?” he asked in wonder.
“I’ll just get something on our car, don’t worry I’ll be right back.” I answered and he just nodded.
When I’m already outside the house, my eyes immediately searched for Bella. Then I saw her near the Fountain. I approached her about 3 meters.
“Boss they believed in my pretense.” I knew he’s smiling while saying that. Tsk! “Yes boss. I won’t fail you. Yes. I’ll go back inside. They might get suspicions.” she added on the other line.
I just smirked as I stood behind her. When she hung up the phone, she put it inside hi pocket.
When she turned around to go back inside. Our eyes meet.
When she sees me, she suddenly step away. How come they sent us a spy, if it’s this stupid. If this one is really good, why she didn’t even feel my presence before?
“Tsk Tsk Tsk” I shook my head as I walked closer to her.
“How long have you been there?” he asked and while trying to get her cold voice back.
“Shocked?” I asked while smirking at her.
“Whatever you hear, don’t interfere. If you don’t want me to get you involved too. ” she threatened me as her eyes glared at me.
“Do you think I will be afraid of you? Tsk! I would be scared if Ace’s the one who said it.” I barely laughed. “If you’ll pretend again, make sure you won’t get caught right away. And one more thing, it’s impossible for you to be the real Bella because that’s a big nonsense.” I told her seriously. She was about to kick me when I precited and kicked her in the stomach, reason why she fell back slightly and caught blood a little.
“Your nothing compared to me when it comes to fighting.” I said coldly to him while smiling.
“Not someone like you will ruin my plans.” she said emphatically to me.
“Don’t worry, it’s my tend to interfere in other people’s plans.” I told her. Then go back inside the house. If she thinks she’s going to win the game she started, then she’s wrong.
When I returned inside, Emerson welcomed me.
“Babe what did you take in the car? I didn’t see anything?” he asked in wonder. I showed him the earphones I used to have in my pocket. So that he doesn’t have to ask any more questions.
Soon Bella came back and gave me a sly glare. The she came over to Vladimir’s side and wrapped her hand around his. I just give her a playful smirked.
