CHAPTER 31

The next day, I woke up without Superior Vlad beside me. So I got up and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. After I wiped my wet face I tied my hair in ponytail style and looked at the clothes I was wearing. They still looked fine, so I decided not to change them. When I feel contented, I opened the door and went out the room.

When I got to the stairs I slowly walked down to it, but also stopped in the middle when heard some noise downstairs.

I barely peeked down to see where the noise was coming from. And just as I thought, it came from the living room.

"Wahhhhh! You're ugly! That's why you only got Zakya because you trick her hahahaha!" the man said while laughing out loud. Then he immediately received a slap on the neck and it was from the woman next to him who looked like a bully because of her posture. But I admit, she's cool. I like her.

"Stop it, Emerson, I might throw you out of this house." The woman said.

"Ouch babes." the man said while looking at the woman who hit him. I think it's his girlfriend.

"Baby what's Emerson saying?" asked the innocent-looking woman and looked at the man next to her whom she called honey.

"F*ck you Emerson go to hell." the man named Beckett said in annoyance.

"Bwahahaha. Beckett, it's really hard when the girlfriend is innocent hahaha, it's good that I went with babes. " that Emerson said while laughing at Beckett.

Baby what 'F*ck you' are? " I saw how they were stunned when the woman next to Beckett suddenly asked. Beckett looked even worse at Emerson.

Suddenly, Emerson squeeze at his girlfriend. "Ivy babes don't let that man hurt me." he said childishly.

While Beckett just turned his gaze on her girlfriend and smile. "Don't think about it baby." he said, then kiss his woman on the forehead.

I turned my gaze and rested it to the single sofa where a man was sitting. Then suddenly, it look at the stairs where I am. I think he just notice that I was looking at him.

I heard and saw him whistled. "Wow Chicks" the man said while looking at me from head to toe with a pervert smile playing on his lips. And one by one, the other turned their attention to me. I have no other choice, so I just went down and walk towards where they are.

When I'm close enough, I stopped and spoke at them.

"Where's Superior Vlad?" I asked.

"Who are you Miss Beautiful?" asked the man named Emerson. He then, immediately received a slap on the neck from his girlfriend.

"Ouch babes. I'm just asking." he said, looking at his girlfriend while touching his nape.

"I'm Ace." I said sparingly in front of them.

"Ohh you're probably the one that boss is referring to. And whom will live here in his house, it's good that finally someone will replace his broken feelings." the man on the single sofa laughted.

"BTW, I'm Griffin." he said then slightly raised his hand for a shakehands. With a shameface, he immediately put his hand down when I just look at him emotionlessly and didn't take his hand.

"Bwahahaha! Good for you, I'm Emerson and this beautiful girl next to me is Babes Ivy Jean." Emerson said, I just nodded.

"Hi! I'm Zakya Brikson, Beckett's girlfriend." the innocent-looking woman said while smiling at me, I just give her nod as well.

"Where's Vlad" I asked at them again.

"He's in the kitchen. I think he's done cooking. Let's go, so we can eat breakfast." Zakya answered.

I let them take the lead while I'm just following them. When we got to the kitchen everything was ready. The dining table, the foods—even the chairs. All we have to do is to sit and eat. I turned my sight into Vladimir who's busy taking off his apron. He's only wearing a sleeveless shirt so I could see his muscles without any difficulties.

When noticing that someone is looking at him, he turned his sight to me and smiled.

"Hey let's eat" He said So I went to a chair and sat down, he also sat next to me. He is also the one who spooned what I was going to eat.

"Taste it. I cooked it all. " he said and feed me the adobo soup. I almost close my eyes when I taste the adobo. It's very delicious. I knew he was waiting for my reaction but I didn't show him anything, instead I just nodded to show that I like it.

I noticed that the others also sat down and served their girlfriends. Except for Griffin who is already eating.

We were all quiet in the middle of our meal when suddenly someone rang the doorbell. And it looks like no one intends to stand up to open the door, so I just went out of the kitchen and walked to open whoever came.

When I opened the door I saw a woman standing at the door step and she's very beautiful. But I was stunned to see the same emotion that we show. This is impossible!

THIRD PERSON POV

When Ace opened the door, a woman in a black hoodie, black pants and white shoes appeared before her. As it turned to look at Ace without emotion.

Even though Ace was shocked, she still managed to spoke with her cold voice.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"Its none of your business, let me see Vladimir Moon." the woman answered coldly as well.

Their voices are the same as well as the emotion their showing. The only difference is their faces. She noticed.

"And who are you to command me?" she asked in euectic tone.

The woman was about to speak when someone suddenly spoke behind Ace.

"Ace, who's there?" Zakya innocently said behind Ace and peeked outside the door. And when Zakya saw the woman, she smiled.

"Hi! Who are you?" she asked.

"I'm Bella" the woman said coldly. When Ace heard that, she stiffened in his stance. Maybe it's because its name sounds familiar to him. While Zakya just smiled because she didn't know the woman's face.

With a happy face, Zakya pulled the woman inside the house and made her sit on the sofa, while Ace was left standing at the door.

"Your name sounds familiar to me." Zakya said and acted as if she was thinking of something, when he didn't remember it she stood up.

"Wait. I'll just call the others, maybe they know you." Zakya said happily and ran towards the kitchen. When she arrived, she immediately spoke.

"Guys we have visitors, she said she's Bella." she said with a wide smile.

And everyone gets stunned, well except for Ivy, who's just kept eating because she didn't care.

The men hurried out and Vlad took the lead. As you can see his eyes full of longing.

When they came out of the kitchen Vlad stopped at what he saw. He is now looking at the woman sitting on the sofa.

"W-wife." He stammered as tears rolled down his cheeks.

"Miss me" Bella said while smirking but her face had no emotion to show.

Vladimir was slightly surprised. He is not mistaken, this is the usual aura of the woman he loves because he can see that her expression is still the same like it used to before.

He didn't waste any time and quickly approached the one he loved then hugged it tightly.

From that moment, Vladimir forget that Ace still exists around him while just staring at them.

Ace couldn't deny that her heart seemed to be squeezing over and over by ehat she just witnessed.

"W-wife — you're alive!" Vlad said happily and kissed his wife on the lips. Ace was hurt even more. But despite everything, his eyes remained emotionless.

While the others approached and asked Bella various questions.

"Aren't you dead already?" Griffin asked in disbelief.

"H-how come you're here and alive?" Beckett asked as well.

"Boss, maybe she's haunting you, boss, I think she got up from the pit." Emerson said jokingly. "Just a joke." Emerson immediately said while scratching his head when Vladimir gave him a death glared.

While they were talking, Ivy came out of the kitchen. She looked at Ace and approached her.

"What do you think?" Ivy asked smirking at Bella. "Looks like we have a toy now." she added while looking at bella who was next to Vladimir.

"Let her pretend. She's digging her own grave." Ace said coldly to Ivy as if they knew each other for a long time. Ivy just smiled.

"Id love this game." Ivy said in her mind while giggling.
