Chapter 43

Ace's POV

The chirping of the birds broke my sleep as I inhaled deeply and opened my eyes and the first thing that came to my blurry sight was the roof and the light bulbs still on, even though the room was lit up by the outside light.

My hands reached up from the blanket and as I looked to my side, I was all of a sudden caught off guard when I saw Veronica sitting next to my bed on a chair in which my shirt was hung, staring at me.

"What the hell are you doing?" I asked, my voice sounded husky as I got up from the bed and pulled the cover-up. She seemed to snap out as she shook her head and looked elsewhere but for me.

"Nothing! I was just thinking about the wedding preparations. I'm yet to try the wedding dress too," she said while I rubbed the sleep off my face and sat properly.
