194-Accused!
I stayed there for a minute when finally, Maddox got distracted from her and looked my way. I lowered
my eyes and then forced my head up to give him a smile.
I felt bad for him.
He lost his brother, his girlfriend, and his mate too. He kept staring at my face while I kept giving him a
comfortable smile when he suddenly turned Reign around and cupped her face in his hands. He did it
while looking into my eyes.
He crashed his lips against hers, and my smile slowly started fading away. I realized he wanted me to
know I was not welcome in his life again.
I was not going to approach him and jeopardize his life anyway. I just wanted to comfort him, but I
guess he had already found his comfort zone, and I can't even blame him.
He kept deepening the kiss, and then slowly turned his eyes closed. He shunned me out of his sight
and his life. And maybe from his memory, too.
I took a deep breath, feeling bad for spying on their intimate kiss. Giving up on that part of my life and
walked into the café. The courage and confidence I had before coming here were shattered.
I walked in, rubbing my hands and looking like I was on the verge of crying. I am not saying he

"Beatrice!" Maura spotted me and ran over to hold my hand and pass me a sad smile. "I am sorry for
what happened yesterday. I am sure that bastard made an attempt, but I am so happy you taught him a
good lesson," she was talking and I was blankly nodding to her.
"I - have come to resign," I said, fidgeting with my fingers and trying to compose my posture.

"Dad is in the kitchen," she informed me. I walked behind her, making sure I was not alone, and indeed,
he was waiting for me in there.
"Ah!" He slammed the register down and straightened his back to glare at me. I felt Maura gently rub
my back to reassure me I was not alone. I didn't want her to suffer with me. I didn't want anybody to
side with me and get in trouble.
My slow and steady steps were due to all the stress I had been put under when I saw Maddox
purposely trying to hurt me. It made me wonder if he thinks I am responsible for everything.
But I am.
"I'm here to sign the papers and leave," I said as I emotionlessly walked near him.
"Resign? Do you think you are in power to do so? Your mother took money from me. Pay me that
money back, and then you can go to hell," he grumpily muttered while throwing the apron my way.
"How much money did she take?" I asked, and my eyes stuck to his face as he grimaced.
"Why don't you go ask her? And make sure you ask her why she got that money?" He had a nasty grin
on his face when mentioning that.
"But first, wear this apron and go take orders," he hurled at me and eyed me to get to work.
"If not. I'll call the cops on you and your mother," he added before he pulled out a cigarette and exited
from the backdoor.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't know." Maura looked extremely guilty about her father's behavior.
"I wasn't allowed to leave the kitchen previously. Now he wants me to go out and take orders.' I sighed
devastatingly at his attempts to bother me.
"He wants to lure in customers by making a beautiful girl walk around," Maura grunted at her father's
ways.
"Fine, if he wants everybody to hate his café for hiring me, then I can't do anything," I grumpily
muttered while feeling tears burn my eyes. Those were the tears of anger and frustration.
I grabbed the apron angrily, tying the strap behind my back, and walked out of the kitchen with a
notepad. I still couldn't believe my mom took money on my behalf.
"Yes sir? What ma—," I have reached the first table with my head down. So it wasn't until I lifted my
head that I saw the person looking me in the eye and waiting to get my attention.
"Yes! Me and my mate over here would love to order the best of your menu," Maddox forced a smirk
across his lips, introducing Reign to me.

When did that happen?
I never knew they were mates. But then again, we all had our secrets that we kept from each other.
"Oh! I didn't know you work here," Reign seemed to be caught off guard. She looked at Maddox and
then at me in confusion. I also noticed how tired she looked. There were a few bruises on her neck as if
somebody had tried to strangle her. I am sure she will feel better when she transitions.
"How would you know? Her job is to sleep with the alphas, so seeing her here might be a little
confusing," Maddox's comment rooted from when I slept with Flynn for him.
"What would you like to get?" I asked, after gulping the guilt down my throat.
"A loyal and decent mate, who isn't running around taking pictures of someone else just because she is
jealous," He continued to pass a taunt at me.
"I will get roasted asparagus with poached eggs." Reign murmured awkwardly, probably feeling some
type of way because of the comments he was passing on to me.
"Go on! Take My Luna's Order!" Maddox snapped his fingers at me when ordering. I had mixed
emotions, but I showed none because I knew it wouldn't matter to anyone.
"Blueberry pancakes for me," Maddox ordered with an attitude.
I gave him a nod, and just when I was about to walk away, he said something that made me scream
internally.
I wonder if she planned it all to hand over Hefei's crown to Flynn."
