189-Found À Genuine Friend.
I left early for work this morning. Staying in the kitchen was my only job, but it was very hard for me. I
have never cooked before, so now I am suffering.
"Flip it before you burn it," Maura walked in on me, zoned out and almost burning the patties.
"Oh! I am sorry,’ I said, biting my tongue and instantly flipping the patties over and letting out a sigh.
Thankfully, I didn't burn them.
"You look exhausted today," Maura said, watching me with a smile covering her lips. "Do you miss
him?" she asked, her eyes holding concern for me.
"There will be no day when I don't miss him. But the reality is that I have lost him," I nodded to myself,
taking the patties off and preparing the buns now.
"I am so sorry that you had to see it all. It ¡S not easy to see your loved one in such a state." Maura
gave me a side hug before Pamela walked in on US. She had been acting a bit differently with me
since last night. However, her behavior with Pamela seemed pure.
"We have to prepare an order for Spade mansion," Pamela spoke directly to Maura because she knew
the mention of that mansion will hurt me.
"What for?" Maura asked, walking around and checking the order list.
"For the coronation of Flynn Winchester," Pamela addressed, and all the memories of that day rushed
back to me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI kept my head down and my eyes stuck at the buns as I prepared orders. My vision was so blurred
that I couldn’t even put a patty down properly.
"We should excuse ourselves." Maura's words compelled a gasp from Pamela's lips.
"Why?’ Pamela asked, talking in whispers with Maura this time.
"It is unfair what Lord Vasquez give that throne as a gift to Flynn. He is the worst example of an alpha
king. I would not want to be a part of that celebration," Maura grunted, as I have told her everything
since I joined the café.
"What happened that day is their business. We don't know exactly what happened. As for Alpha Flynn,
that poor boy had craved love and affection for years. He was given the surname Winchester, when in
fact he was a spade. Let's carry empathy for him.’ Pamela made me realize her smiles towards me and
my mother meant nothing.
She was probably just being kind because Akin had asked her to. Speaking of him, he had tried coming
around, looking for me, but so far, I have successfully hidden away from him.
"I know what Flynn had been through was not his fault but the others things he did to Beatrice and the
brothers. I am sorry! But tell Vasquez we are busy today." Maura sternly took her stand and joined me,
smiling at me to comfort me.
"Alpha King Zane will be very upset when he hears you have declined their request." Pamela made
one last effort to make Maura agree with her. But that's where she puzzled me. Why would she say
Zane's name to Maura?
"If you truly care about the alpha kings, why don't you go attend Alpha King Akin?" Maura changed the
subject, but I found out from her that Akin had arrived once again.
He would come by twice a day, hoping to catch me.
"Fine," Pamela sighed, walking out of the kitchen and leaving US behind.
"He had been sitting and waiting for you for hours. He asked me twice if I could bring you out. Beatrice!
Don’t you want to see him once? Just see what he has to say, please." Maura gently nuzzled my elbow,
trying to convince me to meet Akin.
"Helel was just like Akin-persistent. He would always appear out of nowhere to help me. I never
thought he would go that far to please me, but he did. I— don't want Akin to face the same wrath and
fate as his brother. Zane and Maddox will need the guidance of Akin now that Flynn is taking over
Helel's region." I mumbled as tears were ready to leave my eyes. The topic was such a burden on my
chest.
"I understand. I am sorry for bringing it up." Maura passed me a smile, but I saw her lips tremble and
knew there was something she was biting under her teeth.
"Is there something you want to talk about?" I asked Maura, who started fidgeting with her fingers and
looking all concerned.
"Remember when I told you my mother died when I was very little?" She began in hushed tones. Just
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe way she was constantly staring at the door to make sure nobody was listening to our conversation
was enough evidence that whatever secret she had could be the beginning of another mess.
"Yes, what about it?" I asked, watching her take a gulp and open her mouth to speak.
"S—,’ before she could share it with me, the door slammed open and her father barged in, looking
angry.
"Father!" Maura straightened her back when greeting that disgusting man. We had not talked about the
incident again, but I watched him eye US with nothing but lust. I understand I was a stranger to him, but
he would look at Maura the same way, and that would make me gag every time.
"Come to the storeroom with me," Ubel said, walking behind Maura and brushing his entire hand
against her ass.
My body shuddered in disgust, but I kept my silence since she didn't want to say a word.
"Okay," she said, but her response was met with a head shake from Ubel.
"I am not talking about you. I am talking to Beatrice." He turned to face me and forced a smile on his
dirty lips.
"My house is not very far. If we leave now, we will be back in two hours after collecting the stuff from
the storeroom," he said, making a demand that I follow him.
There was no secret that he was expecting something to happen today.
"If you want to keep your job, you will have to work hard." He commented before walking towards the
backdoor and holding it open for me.
