CHAPTER 190 Learning Journey

  “Ace…” I called his name softly as I stood at his side.

  “What is it?” he asked but without much interest.

  “Thank you for working so hard for us…” I said softly but clearly.

  Ace turned to stare directly into my face before he smiled a little at me. Slowly his hand reached out and soon I felt its warmth against my cheek. He softly stroked my cheek with the pad of his thumb, and I smiled back in response.

  “Umm…I’ll head back to bed now…” I mumbled softly as I felt heat rise to my cheek.

  His loving caress made so much warmth flood my face and my chest.
