Chapter 41. Darling of the crowd
Beauty's POV . When I posed at the center stage, all the flashes were at me, and everyone at the VIP stood up, applauding loudly. I smiled at everyone, but Drew's eyes held visible anger when we made eye contact. I forced a smile at him and to Beatrice beside him. My heart hammered so damn hard inside me, and Atticus brows creased as he looked at Drew. The two are facing each other, and probably Drew may be asking Atticus about the situation. I swallowed hard and whirled around. I paused for a few seconds, allowing the crowd to get a good look at my outfit and my body, before turning and walking back towards them. I know the rules. Atticus knows the rules, and so is Mamita. Drew Mondragon exclusively asked for it. But here I am, almost naked in front of the public.

"That was the perfect fina

Chapter 44. Trust
Beauty's POV I walked towards Drew's shut door without a plan. I looked around, and there was no one. I took a deep breath and was about to knock but changed my mind. I felt my flesh shaking thinking of Beatrice. I fisted my hands and took another deep breath. I stared at the door before me briefly and stepped back. I dialed Drew's number, and it rang a few times. He didn't answer it. I chuckled, feeling so annoyed now. Me to Drew: Drew, are you free to talk? I waited long enough for a response, but I realized he would never respond and probably chose to ignore me today. My blood rose to the limit of what I could handle. So, straight away, I knocked heavily on his door. It opened, and it was no longer a surprise for him to see me. He left the door open for me to enter and turned his back to me. I stepped in and looked around. The empty cups of coffee are still sitting on the coffee table. My brows furrowed at the thought of Beatrice being here a while ago. "Drew?" I looked beh

Today is the day I will also return with Mamita. I turned off my cell phone and have no plans of turning it back on."You, alright?" Mamita asked beside me.
