Chapter 485 Unregretful Past
“For a very long time now. Even before we officially met during your job interview,” he replied before grinning at me.
Although I couldn’t deny the fact that I’ve seen the signs and some evidence along the way, I was still flat out stunned by the truth. With all honesty, I didn’t know what to say. All the emotions that welled up inside of me made my chest feel tight yet warm at the same time and I was at a loss for words. It just didn’t feel like any words that I could say would accurately tell him how I was feeling. I was surprised for sure, but at the same time, I didn’t fail to realize just how thankful I was that things turned out this way between us.
Somewhere and somehow, our fates were interwoven together and brought us together. I had no idea that we were somehow destined to meet and be together from such a long time ago. Although back then I had no idea who Ace was in person, the fact that I could relate to his work made me feel like I had a special connection to him. Of course, I did not realize until much later that he was the one behind the commercial that changed my life for the better.
At first, I was very scared and wary of Ace even though I had a lot of respect for him and his talent when it came to his work. Even though things definitely started changing between us after he overheard Kyle breaking up with me and after that steamy one night stand that I had with him, I never thought that we would grow even closer. I looked at Ace and realized that it was now very difficult for me to imagine my life without him in it. That was just how dear and important he had grown to be to me and also proof of the vast impact that he has had on my life.
“Honestly, everything slipped from my mind until I saw your name in the list of candidates. Back then, I just returned to the company to take over as the new CEO. Looking back, it does feel a little strange, but I recognized your name right away,” Ace said as he seemed to recall what happened on that day.
I had always thought that it might have been just a wild coincidence that Ace was there as part of the panel that interviewed me but perhaps that wasn’t the case at all. His eyes held mine while I remained silent. There wasn’t anything that I wanted to say. If anything, I wanted to listen to everything that Ace had to tell me.
“I don’t know if this will make everything just lose its charm and become less romantic, but it wasn’t truly fate or a coincidence that I met you at the park that day or that I ended up as one of your interviewers,” Ace said before he took a pause.
I could tell that he was gauging my reaction to what he had just told me. It felt like a confession, but at the same time, I didn’t sense any guilt from Ace. There was nothing for him to feel guilty about. I wasn’t sure how I should feel but l surely felt quite glad that he did what he decided to do back then. Looking back in hindsight, it was all of his reckless actions back then that somehow brought us together the way that we were now.
“Not at all. I still think that it’s fate and that it’s romantic...and reckless in its own way...” I murmured in response.
Ace must have thought that my comment was amusing to a certain degree because he started laughing softly. Talking about the past with Ace now felt like we were pleasantly reminiscing. It must have been because we have been through so much together that we could look back and smile and laugh about it.
“I thought you were so prideful and stubborn when you kept on insisting to return the money that I gave you. Back then, I just had the urge to help you out. I’m not quite sure what was running through my head at the time, but it seemed like you needed help. So maybe just like how your email helped to cheer me up and give me the courage to keep on believing in what I did, I wanted to help you out when you needed it,” Ace said, and he suddenly sounded very serious. noVe/lb-1n
I could still remember his sudden offer to help me on that day. I wasn’t sure if handing me so much cash was the right way to help me, but it must have helped in some way or another. At least, I was able to purchase a suit and shoes that were presentable for my job interview. I did have to trade a kiss for it, though.
“You have a strange way of helping people...” I muttered.
“Maybe you’re right about that. I have no regrets about what I did. If anything, it might have been better had I made you my secretary sooner,” he said before grinning my way.
“I don’t think we should regret the past...” I replied softly.
I knew well what Ace was referring to. After starting work at the company, I was just a newbie at the company on my very first job and he was the CEO. It felt like we were worlds away from each other and naturally never had the chance to run into each other for work or for anything else for that matter. During that time, I was busy adjusting to living in the big city and focusing on my first job. On top of it all, I started dating Kyle in secret and the thought of Ace all but slipped from my mind.
Sometimes I too wondered how things would have turned out had I begun dating Ace right away instead of ending up with Kyle. It was honestly hard to imagine that I could get together with Ace if Kyle
hadn’t dumped me, and I hadn’t gone out drinking like I did that night.
