Love Slave to My Devil CEO Boss 18+ novel Chapter 324

My poor little heart couldn’t help but skip a beat and I had to turn away a little to hide my blush. Ace let out a soft laugh which made me feel even more shy and self-aware than before.

“I didn’t think that you two would search for inspiration in the company’s old archive but I have to say that the ideas you two came up with wasn’t at all bad. Seems like it was worth the effort of digging through all those old files,” Ace commented.

I smiled a little at him before Ace turned to focus his eyes back on the road ahead. The traffic was unusually light for rush hours during a weekday. While watching the attractive view of Ace’s side profile, I wondered if he knew that all his old works were actually quite carefully stored in the company’s archives. More accurately, I figured that Ace probably wasn’t at all aware because he did mention that he threw everything out. While I had no idea why he did that to his precious work documents, I was as equally curious about who had saved his work and stored them in such an orderly fashion in the archive.

“Did you know that a bunch of your past works are kept in the archive?” I asked after deciding that it probably wouldn’t hurt to bring it up.

“My work? Really?” Ace asked with clear surprise after a moment of silence.

The car conveniently got stuck at a red light and that gave Ace the opportunity to turn his attention to me. His soft brown eyes searched my face as if he could find the reason why his work ended up there. I wished I had the answers to that as well.

“Yes, really. You didn’t know?” I asked in return.

“No…” Ace replied with a blank look.

“Well, I have to say that it’s great that all your work hasn’t been lost. To me, they’re sort of like a treasure that should be discovered and rediscovered over and over again,” I said before beaming a smile.

It was hard and I couldn’t help but enter into my fangirl mode. Ace laughed awkwardly and I picked up right away that this topic seemed to be making him uncomfortable; however, I didn’t quite understand why. I opened my mouth to ask him about it but then closed it again when I realized that now wasn’t quite the time.

“It’s all in the past. Not everything down there is going to be useful to you, so I don’t recommend that you go down there often. A lot of things that are outdated shouldn’t be used anymore,” Ace said with a clear hint of warning in his tone.

“I’ll keep that in mind. It’s a little hard to resist taking a peek at your old work papers,” I admitted truthfully.

“A guess a peek is fine…” Ace muttered.

What if…I took more than a peek at it?

That was what I wanted to ask but I managed to hold my tongue and ended up commending myself for doing so. I thought Ace would be a little bit more interested or exciting at learning that his old works were still safe and stored in the company’s archive; instead, he didn’t seem at all impressed. I guess being the creator and owner of the work, he probably favored his old works a lot less than the newer ones just like some artists who are more proud of their new work because of all the learning and polishing that they’ve done to their skills.
