Sharing Beatrice A Luna to her Stepbrothers

Chapter 189

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.

I 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. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"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 the 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.
