Chapter85
"Ace-"
"Quiet."
He got on the couch and in between my legs. I tried to sit up but he stopped me. I lay down speechless and breathless, staring into his eyes right above mine.
Fuck whosoever. There was no turning back!

Sawyer's POV:
I walked through the corridor of my floor, I had just eaten. On my way to my office, I met Rob.
"Hello, Rob," I smiled.
"Hello, Sawyer. Is Heather around??"
"Yeah why? Any problem?"
"No, no, but I want to talk with her. Please, can you take me to her office?"
"Sure."
I led him to Heather's office. I reached her door and turned the knob. But it didn't open. I heard a little noise inside.
"Heather?? Open up!!"
"She's not there?" Rob asked.
"No, she's inside. She locks the door at times so I don't bother her, " I continued to knock, "Open up! Rob's standing here to talk to you!"
"C- coming! Hold on!" I heard her reply. I turned to rob.
"She'll receive you. She's probably changing or something. Let me go back to my office."
"Okay. Thanks."
I turned and left.
Heather's POV:
Ace and I quickly got dressed. We hadn't even started yet. Luckily.
We'd been passionately kissing on the couch. His shirt was already off and my shirt and bra, too. Phew. As we quickly adjusted, he chuckled a little.
"You're laughing?" I whispered, amused.
"Yeah, it's quite funny," he chuckled.
"Shut up and get behind the door!"
"Right," he gave me a quick kiss, "We'll continue this later."
"Good idea."
I struggled to put my shoes. He gave me playful spank on the ass and went behind the door. I went to open it.
"Uncle Rob. How are you?" I asked happily, quickly taking him in my arms, "Long time!" I held on to him while Ace sneakily left the office behind his back. Phew! I let him go and closed the door.
"Long time? We met last week," he said, taking a seat.
"Oh yea? Forgot." I sat down myself.
Ace's POV:
I laughed to myself after leaving Heather's office. That had been a close one. Both sawyer and Rob could've walked in on us. The catastrophe would've been huge! That little moment was a hot one though. I still had a boner painfully straining against my trousers. I made sure it wasn't visible. I would control myself till my next meeting with Heather.
Heather's POV:
"Are you alright?" Rob asked me.
"Yes. Why?"
"You're flushed. Your cheeks are red and your breathing is a little uneven."
Of course! You interrupted a feverish session.
"Really?? Well, I don't know. But I've not been well. So, you have something to tell me?"
"Yes," he leaned in with a serious expression, " I guess you already know about your mother's financial situation. The company's situation exactly."
Hmm. This might be interesting.
"Yes?"
"Heather, I want you to convince your mother to sell this company."
I acted surprised.
"Why?"
"She's crashing. The products aren't selling. Before this company dies, she has to sell it! To save it! She can then use that money to start another family business with you both."
False! Both of you will use the money to run away.
"You're very right, Rob."
"Yes. Better she sells it now. Because the more it declines, the harder she'll find potential buyers."
"I get you uncle. I'll do everything to convince her."
He seemed relieved.
"I knew I could count on you."
"And you were right."
He smiled and stood up.
"Thank you."
We shook hands
"I'm happy you care about our mom's wellbeing," I lied.
"You're welcome. You are all family to me. Okay, I'll leave now. Keep me updated about what she'll say."
"Okay."
"And remember, we never had this conversation."
"Mouth closed!"
He smiled and left the office.
"Dumbass," I stood up to leave the office. I was going to tell Sheridan about our conversation and to finish what we'd started. Half of my mind was on it while I spoke to Rob.
I left my office and locked the door behind me. I was about to head for his office when another employee caught up with me.
"Ma'am?"
What now?
"Yes, Lara?"
"Your mother wants you in her office."
I rolled my eyes.
"Now?"
"Yes now, ma'am. She said it's important."
I felt like grumbling or whimpering. My legs were still quite weak. I couldn't wait to get to Sheridan. But I had to go meet my mother first. What was so important?
Ace's POV:
I looked at my watch. What were they talking about?
I was anxious and impatient at the same time because I wanted to know what he had to tell her and because I needed to make love to her. I went to my windows and looked at the city.
Sawyer's POV:
Strange things were going on in the company. A lot of employees had quit. The sales had dropped so much.
Seemed like mom had money problems. Serious ones.
I leaned into my chair. Phew! Thank goodness I had another job.
With time, I'd started a little modeling carrier. I was well paid. I wasn't as known or popular as Heather yet, nor had I begun going for international fashion shows. I was still a starter. But the money I was already getting was alright. I believed things would be easy for me because I had an international super model as elder sister. So in case the company was destroyed, I had my own money. Plus, I had Kevin on the side to provide for me, foolishly.
Heather's POV:
I entered my mother's office. She smiled at me. I didn't smile back. I loved her and hated her at the same time because of the type of human being she was.
"Good afternoon, darling."
"You called for something important."
"Yes uh, please sit."
I lazily took a seat.
"As it is evident, the company's not well. I'm even losing some employees. Aiden left this morning."
