She had never paid attention to something as subtle as her brother's cologne, and the fact that Raymond had been so aware of it made her realize how deeply Raymond's feelings for Bruno ran.

"Wait," she said, processing his words.

"You're saying Bruno had a feminine fragrance on him?"

Raymond rolled his eyes in frustration.

He didn't want to go into details, he felt jealous of that strange woman out there.

"Yeah. And it wasn't faint, either. It was all over him. His clothes, his skin...everything."

He glanced down, fidgeting slightly.

"Whoever she is, he must've been really all over her. I also suspect that the hoodie is not his. Bruno never wears anything apart from gray color and black colored"

"This is unbelievable".

Bruno was known for being reserved and keeping to himself, never one to flaunt any relationships or even hint at having a romantic life.

If what Raymond was saying was true, it meant Bruno had a secret female lover and Abigail had no idea.

"Are you sure?" she ask

    "Why do you hate me? You've always loved your little sister when we were young, but now you hardly listen to me! It's sad...it's heartbreaking...it's so hard for me...please open the door, don't lock me out... I will die".She faked crying.Sighing in frustration, he reluctantly walked to the door and opened it, trying to keep his expression neutral. "You should leave modeling, go into the movie industry and show off your talent".Bruno told her.Abigail immediately stopped her acting and dried off her tears. Without warning, she leaned in and sniffed the air like a bloodhound, her nose twitching."Did you just... sniff me?" Bruno asked, incredulous.Abigail ignored his question, raising an eyebrow. "You smell different."Bruno frowned, stepping back instinctively. "I don't know what you're talking about.""Oh, don't play dumb, Bruno She gave him a knowing look, her curiosity piqued.

    Monday morning, Beauty arrived at the company with a heavy heart, her usual brightness was dulled by the storm of emotions swirling in her mind. She couldn't stop thinking about her conversation with Jessie last night. Jessie had sounded so excited when Beauty asked her to go ahead with Bruno, yet it wasn't from her deepest heart.Beauty knew she shouldn't feel this way because Bruno wasn't hers, after all. But the thought of Jessie getting closer to him, and even pursuing him, twisted her insides in ways she hadn't expected.As she stepped into the designer's office, her eyes darted around, instinctively searching for Bruno. She told herself to calm down and act like nothing happened."Don't be jealous! Beauty. It's just Jessie. She's your best friend. You can't be upset about this".She scolded herself internally.But no matter how much she tried to reason with herself, the pain was undeniable.The thought of someone else getting close to Bruno, let alone her best friend Jessie

    Beauty wasn't her usual self.Normally, she'd greet him with a smile or a shy blush, her eyes lighting up whenever their gazes met. Even before they ever had a conversation. She was always smiling whenever they made eye contact."Perhaps the same with the rest of them".He thought as he noticed the female staff smiling and giggling at his new look.However, he attracted him in a different way. But today, she didn't even acknowledge his presence. She kept her head down, busying herself with whatever task was in front of her, avoiding any eye contact.Bruno's heart felt like his heart just got ripped out of its chamber.He tried to catch her eye, by intentionally walking In Front of her desk with the hope of sparking even a small greeting, but she barely glanced in his direction. She looked...determined to avoid him at all means, like she was deliberately putting up a wall between them.*What's going on? Did I do something wrong?*Bruno thought, feeling the sharp sting of anxiety prick

    Eric, a tall, handsome and well-built man with smooth brown skin that glowed under the soft office lighting. His curly hair and honey brown eyes complimented his skin color.His chiseled jawline, perfectly trimmed beard and that perfect dentition was easily noticed by the female staff in the room. They giggled softly, their voices low, but their eyes never left the handsome newbie.He is an attractive one for sure.Eric had approached Beauty's desk with a soft smile, clutching a few files in his hand. He was still getting used to the company's workflow, and Beauty to him appeared to be the kindest and easy going although today, she seemed unusually moody and not the approachable person he had expected. Despite this, Eric gathered his courage and stepped forward. The pretty privilege can come to his aid this time.Beauty was reading an email to her inbox about the School Reunion."Beyoncé Robin? She is the main sponsor?"She cursed as remembered the particular incident where the sc

    Eric smiled back."Thanks, Beauty. I sincerely appreciate your help," Eric said, his smile widening as he caught her gaze. "I've been struggling to get the hang of things around here, and you've made it so much easier... You're as beautiful as your heart. Thank you".Beauty chuckled softly, waving off the compliment, her cheeks flushed."No problem, Eric. I'm happy to help."As she spoke, she unconsciously brushed a lock of hair behind her ear, and Eric's eyes flickered to the movement, admiring the small, graceful gesture. Bruno saw it too, and something in him snapped. The way Eric was looking at her...like she was more than just a helpful co-worker...made Bruno feel like he was going to explode. She hadn't even looked at Bruno today, but here she was, smiling and laughing with Eric like nothing was wrong.He had to turn the monitor off totally, and rushed to get a chill glass of water from the water dispenser."Maybe I should respect her choices, she doesn't belong to me, why can

    Beauty stared at the floor, her eyes welling up with tears she had tried so hard to hold back. She bit her lip nervously, trying to suppress her emotions.Unfortunately, her emotions are now like a tangled mess, and she felt like she was about to break."Talk to me," Jessie said, her tone softer now. "What's going on? What did I do?"Beauty took a shaky breath, and finally, unable to contain it any longer, the dam broke. "I... I am sorry Jessie, it's just ... . I am shamelessly jealous of you. That he liked you back, I am sorry. I shouldn't feel that way. He is never mine...not like it could ever be possible. You are beautiful and all that, and I am not a competition" she confessed, her voice barely above a whisper.Jessie was speechless, her expression softened instantly. She had been expecting drama, of course but didn't expect her to be this hurt.Beauty wiped her eyes, sniffling as she continued.

    Beauty let out a long breath, feeling like a heavy weight was lifted off her shoulders in playful anger. "You're such a brat, Jessie! I was going crazy thinking I lost my chance!".Jessie grinned sheepishly. "I know, I know. I didn't mean to push you that far. Forgive me?"Beauty laughed, wiping her face again. "I'll think about it," she teased, though her smile showed that all was forgiven."Good because I'd hate for us to fight over some guy,you know. Not like we are certain about his sexuality. I have a lot of trust issues these days" Jessie said, putting her arm around Beauty's shoulders."He is not gay...stop it, Jessie".Beauty frowned. "Alright, alright. I hope so, too. If he is into women, it's obvious Bruno's more into you. I mean, come on, girl, have you seen the way he looks at you? He interacts with you more. He saved you the other day from getting bullied," Jessie pointed out.Beauty sighed. "You think? It maybe a pity attraction, nothing else".Jessie rolled her eye

    Her palms were sweaty, and her heart raced as Bruno's eyes stayed locked on her, as if waiting for her to approach.She swallowed hard, feeling the eyes of every coworker on her. Jessie nudged her forward, whispering, "Go on. He's waiting for you.""What if he fires me?" Beauty whispered back, her voice trembling.Jessie shrugged but gave a reassuring smile."I doubt that. He's sitting at your desk, remember? I think he's here for something else. If it's to fire you. He would have invited you to his office".Jessie whispered back.Beauty's feet felt heavy as she tried to lift them off the ground. Jessie's Apple Watch beeped."Oops, time for my schedule".She told Beauty. "Meet you at lunch break, good luck, tell me all about it".Beauty nodded slowly, but her heart still raced at the intensity of Bruno's gaze."Hey! Mr. Bruno, nice haircut. You look damn hot with that expression on your face! Who got you mad with our reserved young boss?"Jessie announced, swinging her hip like she

    Mr. and Mrs. Hills were cooking together in the kitchen, talking about their daughter, Beauty, and her boyfriend, Bruno. But their conversation was interrupted by the doorbell ringing.Mr. Hills stood up quickly and volunteered to get the door.The door rang again."Hold on!"He shouted and walked to the door. He thought it was Beauty or maybe her friend Jessie, who had come to check on her, just like Eric.But when Mr. Hills opened the door, he froze on the spot.Standing there was a young woman who looked exactly like his daughter, Beauty. She had the same pale skin, the same eyes, and the same long, shiny hair.She looked just like Beauty, except she was thinner. Where Beauty was soft, rounded in places with a natural, effortless beauty, this young lady was slimmer, her features sharper but still very identical.It was like looking at a mirror image of Beauty.She also seemed more into fashion and glamorous accessories and could pass for a supermodel, Mr. Hills thought.He blinked,

    Beauty was seated between Bruno's mother and sister, Abigail, with a young boy, around eleven years old, seated across from her. He had a funny look on his face as he tried to get her attention.Next to him sat a stunning elderly woman who looked much younger than her age, her long white hair plaited into two thick strands that cascaded down her shoulders. Despite the visible age in her hair, her face suggested she was in her late fifties.But she's the oldest in the room; she must be older than that. Maybe Bruno's grandma, Beauty thought.She gulped hard, nervously.But the real discomfort came from the presence of her ex, Nathan. He was seated opposite her-the man who had engaged her and dumped her the same day. From the way he looked at her, it was clear he was enjoying the torment he was causing her.Why me?Why today?Why here?Beauty tried to catch her breath, but every time Nathan's wife's elder sister, who was the mother of the boy, glared at her and whispered something to him

    Beauty stood in her room, her heart racing with excitement as she applied a light coat of lip gloss. She reached for the body spray, misting it over her shoulders and collarbone before slipping into her wine-colored lingerie. The silk fabric hugged her curves, accentuating her figure. She pulled a satin robe over it, the soft material brushing against her skin as she tied it loosely at her waist.Taking a deep breath, she moved toward the door, her footsteps light and quiet. But as she reached for the doorknob, pulled the door open only to see her mother in front of her door... about to knock.Her stomach dropped."Mo... Mom!" she gasped, her voice trembling.Mrs. Hills stood in the dimly lit hallway, her eyes puffy with sleep yet sharp with curiosity."What... are you doing here, you scared me!"Mrs. Hills crossed her arms, her gaze traveling from Beauty's flushed face to her barely tied robe."Where are you going? It's 1 a.m.""To... to the guest room. I was going to... check on Bru

    Just then, Mr. Hills walked into the kitchen, looking bewildered."Son, what in the world... What happened."Eric, standing off to the side, tried to hide a grin, but the corners of his mouth were twitching."Well, this is... awkward.""Stay out of this," Mr. Hills told Eric with a coldness that surprised even Beauty."I'll be in the living room," Eric said awkwardly and walked away from the kitchen.As Beauty and Mr. Hills stood there, assessing the damage with their eyes. Bruno stood awkwardly, still holding the blackened tray with the burnt wings. He looked as if he might collapse from the embarrassment.But to his surprise, Mr. Hills, with a soft chuckle, clapped him on the back, making Bruno's heart jump slightly."Okay, so it's not a total disaster," he said, his voice light with a touch of humor, trying to ease the tension. "You've got some good ones left here."He grabbed a few of the less-burnt wings off the tray."These will do just fine. Don't worry about it, son. You trie

    Bruno turned to her with a helpless expression on his face."I've got this. I just... need to decide what to make," he stuttered.Beauty bit her lip to keep from laughing."You don't have to do this, you know...""I've made up my mind. I will impress your dad with my skills."Beauty rolled her eyes."There are two Rolls Royces outside, Babe... They're already impressed. You're setting the bar too high. What would I do to impress your parents?"Bruno said nothing, focused on the food.Seeing his determination, Beauty sighed and walked over to the fridge, pulling out a pack of chicken wings and some basic seasonings."Here, start with these. Wings are a safe bet. I'll set everything out for you."Bruno nodded."Thanks," he muttered.Beauty laid the ingredients on the counter, tied a kitchen apron around him, and smiled proudly."How do I look?"Bruno asked posing."A chef's kiss," she said, demonstrating with a gesture then she took a picture of him.They both laughed."Here."

    Bruno scoffed, shaking his head."I don't like him. And I'm not gay."Beauty blinked."Is he gay?""Who knows?"Bruno shrugged. Beauty rolled her eyes."What does being gay have to do with this? You don't have to like him like that. I mean, get along with him as a normal person.Maybe even be friends."Bruno frowned."I don't want friends, Beauty. You know that. I'm not the type to...hang out with random people. I'm an introvert, remember?""I know, my love. But you need a friend. And Eric... you can't just glare at him the whole time. My parents are watching. Please, just try. Not as close friends, but... try to be friendly and get along with him."Bruno exhaled sharply, rubbing the back of his neck. He met her gaze and saw the pleading in her eyes. Finally, he relented with a grumble. "Fine. I'll try. But if flirts with you, jokeor not ..then I will..""He won't dare".Beauty assured him with a smile.Bruno rolled his tongue and nodded, then pulled her for a kiss."Come on, let's

    OutsideAs soon as they were out of earshot, Bruno grabbed Eric roughly by the arm, pulling him a few steps away from the door. His jaw was set, and his eyes burned with barely contained anger."What's your deal, huh? What the hell are you doing here? Did you get paid to ruin my day with Beauty? Or is this just some pathetic attempt to get her attention? I warned you before ...she is mine...what games are you playing?"Eric raised his hands in surrender."Relax, man. I'm not here to steal your girl. I just wanted to welcome her. Thought it'd be a nice gesture."Bruno's eyes narrowed in irritation."A nice gesture? Showing up uninvited, with flowers, to my girlfriend's parents' house while I'm here? That's not a gesture,you are intentionally trying to get on my nerves,today is supposed to be an important day for us...you have no place here".Eric smirked, crossing his arms." Look, I didn't know you'd be here. I came for Beauty, not you. What's your problem? Feeling a little overprotec

    Mrs. Hills glanced at the living room. Beauty's expression said it all."I'm sorry... but I don't think Beauty will want to...""Pardon me, Mrs. Hills, but I'm well aware of her relationship with Bruno Hathaway. We're just friends."Mrs. Hills' eyes widened in surprise."Oh, I see. Well, come on in, dear."Eric stepped inside, his eyes scanning the room until they landed on Beauty."Beauty! It's good to see you," he said, then glanced at Bruno.Seeing the jealous expression on Bruno's face, Eric smirked to himself.Beauty stared at him, dumbfounded, her mouth slightly open."Eric? What... why are you here?" she muttered."Who is this?" Mr. Hills asked, but before Beauty could reply, Eric interjected."Hey, is that the new Barcelona jersey?" Eric said, referring to the polo Mr. Hills wore.Mr. Hills perked up, his smile widening."Sure is. I'm a big fan of the team."Eric grinned and gestured to himself."Same here!

    As Mr. and Mrs. Hills guided Beauty and Bruno to the dining table, Mrs. Hills beamed uncontrollably."I made this especially for you two. Please, take a seat," she said warmly.Once they were all seated, Mrs. Hills placed a hand delicately on the edge of the table, tilting her head as if piecing together a puzzle."Forgive me, dear," she began, her voice gentle but curious, "but you look so familiar. I feel like I've seen you before, but I can't quite place it."She addressed Bruno, who gave her a nervous smile. Beauty glanced from Bruno to her parents, thinking fast.Mr. Hills nodded, leaning forward slightly."Same here. Have we met before, son?"Bruno managed a polite smile, but before he could respond, Beauty cleared her throat, her cheeks tinged with a slight blush."Actually, Mom, Dad, you probably recognize him because...that must be because he brought me home with his car sometime ago, he's Bruno Hathaway. He's my boss's son."The room fell silent for a moment.Mrs. Hills' eye
