“I see…” I mumbled, although I couldn’t quite see anything in that situation.
“In the end, as you can see, the engagement was dissolved and our companies are still rivals with me as the CEO and Elizabeth as the new CEO of her company,” Ace concluded before he smiled at me.
“Right…” I said with a nod of my head.
“Why are you so speechless? Don’t worry too much. Elizabeth and I have nothing but respect for each other because we work in the same field. She’s still young and has many things to learn, though…” Ace said teasingly.
“Sorry, I honestly never expected this kind of outcome. You know, both for Project Alpha and also your relationship history with her…” I admitted honestly.
“That just sounds very misleading. I never had a relationship with her,” Ace corrected me with an amused smile.
“Right. Ok…” I whispered.
“You’re clearly still confused. Sleep over it. Let’s head back, I’m bored out of my mind,” Ace said.
