Chapter 47: The Other Heir

Ace carries on with all the blushing and beaming for some time while Winter only stares at him in silence. 

Despite her impassive expression, she can't help but be dazzled by his bright, sunny smile. It's no wonder that many girls have fallen for his charms. Not only is he kind and friendly, but he is also quite the eye candy. 

Winter is merely being appreciative of Ace, though - she already had a fair share of experiences with handsome men, considering that she was already living with one and had even married another before. 

"You know, I'm really happy right now..." he started all of the sudden while still staring at the guitar pick she gave him. 

"Not only were you finally talking with me, but you also gave me something. I'm already glad enough that you didn't insist on putting your distance. After everything that happened yesterday, I thought we're going to drift further away from each other."
