Chapter 42

Unice's PoV

"Are you going to your company today?" I said. Then Ace looked at me; we were still in bed and had quick sex this morning.

"Yes, it's time to work, I already have employees, and you'll wait for me here," Ace said, touching my cheek and making me smile.

"Of course, I'll wait for you; I promise I won't go anywhere," I said, and he got out of bed.

"Are you going to cook, or am I going to cook today?" Ace inquired.

"What would you like to eat? I can still stand," I said to him, and when I got up, I stood up, and he looked at me.

"Perhaps you're excellent because you're already used to my dick," Ace said unexpectedly, and I was taken aback.

I changed back into my pajamas and exited Ace's room. We went downstairs to the kitchen, and I opened the fridge to get some bacon and eggs. I got the nonstick pan and a kitchen apron, and I turned on the electronic stove to heat it up and put some olive oil in the pan.

"Inform me if Max is here, I'm going to take a shower," I heard Ace say, and he had his towel on his shoulder.

"I will," I say and cook the bacon and egg. The sunny-side-up egg is my favorite cooking style.

After cooking, I put some bacon and eggs on Ace's plate and some on mine, set it on the dining table, and made some coffee for him. I also make some hot milk for myself, wondering what I would do at his house today.

I heard a car stop in front of our house and honk, so I went outside and saw Max and Charlie talking. When I opened the door, they were taken aback.

"Are you still wearing your pajamas? Is Ace awake?" Max inquired as he entered.

"Why don't you go to the living room and wait for him while he takes a shower? Have you had your breakfast yet?" I asked, and they exchanged glances.

"Can we eat here because no one is preparing breakfast for us?" Max said, and I laughed before nodding.

"Go to the kitchen; there's a dining table there; I'll cook something for you two; I'll just notify Ace that you've arrived." They nodded as I spoke.

I knocked when I arrived at the bathroom, but it was not locked when I touched the door knob. Is he expecting me to come here? Is he going to tease me once more?

"Max and Charlie have arrived, and I have finished preparing our breakfast. But Max and Charlie have said they didn't have breakfast and would like to eat here; are you okay with that?" When I asked Ace, I heard him turn off the shower.

"Cook for them; it will take a long time if they eat," Ace said, and I smiled.

"All right then," I say, closing the door.

When I returned to the kitchen and saw Max and Charlie on their phones, I approached the fridge, thankful they didn't touch the food I cooked for Ace and myself.

I made some bacon with an egg again, and I also prepared a tuna sandwich for Ace because he has work today, and I think he needs to eat more. I put the plate on Max and Charlie.

"Many thanks, Unice!" Max thanked me, and I noticed Ace had arrived, dressed in a blue suit, and sat on the chair beside me.

We started eating, and Ace was beside me; I was surprised when he touched my legs while drinking his coffee. I didn't say anything; I just continued to eat. After eating, the three stood up and were satisfied with my breakfast.

"We're leaving now; if you want to go out, call Justin or Tom. Here's their number so they can guard you," Ace said, handing me a note with the numbers on it.

"I thought you didn't want me to leave your house?" When I asked him, he looked at me calmly.

"I look like a kidnapper to you if I don't let you do whatever you want. You already love me, and I love you; I don't want you to be sad. Take care if you decide to go out," Ace said, kissing my cheek before leaving.

I look at the paper with Justin and Tom's phone numbers; if I go outside today, I hope Edward, Ace's uncle, doesn't follow me. I walked out of the house and saw Ace get into his car, look at me, then smile at me, which is why I waved my hand as the car drove away.

As I entered the house again and went to my room, I placed the piece of paper in the drawer and went to the cabinet to select some casual clothes to wear. I want to see Zoey and ask how she is because I know she is concerned about me.

I went outside my room and went to the bathroom. When I got there, I realized I hadn't brought my towel, but I noticed Ace's towel was still hanging. I smell his towel, and I can smell him here.

Took off my pajamas and went to the shower; after the shower, I dried my hair with a hair dryer, wondering if I should buy a face cleanser and lotion for my skin. But Ace didn't leave some money. What am I going to do now?!

Maybe I can ask his men, Justin and Tom, to lend me money, and Ace will pay them back? I dressed casually in a green shirt and white shorts. I exited the bathroom and headed to my room to put on my sneakers.

When I got into my room, I heard a motor outside, and I had no idea who it was; I didn't call any of Ace's men, so who was outside the house? I put on my sneakers first, then rushed to the front door, and when I opened it, I saw Tom staring at Ace House.

"Did Ace send you here?" I asked him, and he had another helmet for me.

"Yes, Miss Unice, where are you going today? I have some money to lend you." He asked how he knew I didn't have any money. Ace could command him.

"Is it okay if I go to my friend's house? I want to pay her a visit," I told him, and he nodded.

"I believe you have not finished preparing, miss," he replied. I nodded before going inside the house to double-check everything before leaving.

I went back into my room to double-check and picked up my bag and phone. I noticed a text message from Ace.

From: Ace

I hope you have a good day today; I'll be home at 9 p.m.

To: Ace

Alright, Take care of yourself and work hard for our future.

After texting him, I smiled, and I was ready to go. I went out of the room to check the area of Ace's house before leaving, and then I exited Ace's house. I'm worried about how I'm going to lock the doors.

"Is it acceptable to leave the house without locking the door?" I asked Tom while he was getting the big bike ready.

"I can lock it; I have a spare key for our boss's house," Tom said, approaching the door and locking it.

"All done, let's go," Tom said, handing me the helmet I wear for protection. I jumped in, and he started the engine while wearing the extra helmet he had brought. Is Ace okay with me being this close to one of his men?

"May I inquire why Ace chose you to come here?" I inquired of him while he was operating the motor.

"Justin is taking care of something. Could you show me your friend's address?" Tom asked, and he came to a halt on his motorcycle. I told him the address, and he continued driving; thankfully, I still know my friend's address because Ace deleted everything on my phone when I met him.
