Preface

The Mondragon Billionaire's Boys Club. MBBC1-Matured content-***Drew's POV."We are all gathered to cherish our main founder, Don Ricardo Tunner-Mondragon Sr," the speaker speaks, and everyone claps.I looked at everyone around, and I saw the same thinking they had in mind. I shook my head while looking at my father.He holds an admirable power. Known as the ruthless dragon beast who can tame a wild lion. My father inherited his power and wealth from his generation.We do this once a year and catch up with everyone together. Everything was provided, from sky-high luxuries to the Island of temptations—pyramids of businesses worldwide.Name it. You have it.We are the Mondragon blood royalty, The Mondragon Billionaire's Boys Club.My father's speech was no longer new in all aspects. Telling us to become wise and ruthless at times. Even though I managed my businesses around, I couldn't escape from his gasp. He always plans for everything around us."Can't wait to get out of here," Li

Chapter 1. Force

Love is like a fart. If you have to force it, it's probably shit.***Beauty's POV. "Please, Beauty." My sister Amalia pleaded. She almost knelt before me to make me agree with what she wanted. "Sis, you know that I know nothing about that job! I'm a model, big sis. A MODEL!" I confidently said, emphasizing each letter. Her eyes grew more extensive, and she stood up and hit my head using her hand. "What model? A model of baby diaper and mineral water!?" She shouted."Ouch! That was harsh." I ducked. Yes, I'm a model endorser of diapers and mineral water. My printed Photoshop face is on the tarp of our water merchant neighbor. I got a one-time payment for endorsing their water business, and my face is on every plastic bottle sticker. I am also a model endorser of baby diapers, napkins for menstruation, and whatever! If there's a new launch of sanitary products, I'm always in! That's fine, and I'm okay with it. One year supply of sanitary pads. Where else can you

Chapter 2. Wasted

Every second you spend with the wrong person is a second wasted in the search for true love.***Beauty's POV."I'm sorry, Beauty... please forgive me.""Jerk!" I pushed him away to get out. I forgot to lock our gate, and the jerk got in."Beauty, I didn't love Donna. I only need her for sex, and that's all.""What? You jerk! Get lost! Go to hell for all I care!" I shouted and locked the gate.Jasper is drunk. It's been three weeks, and the repeat calls and messages harasses my days, and I'm over it!I had enough. I wasted a lot of opportunity because of him. I didn't accept a job offer in Dubai and Singapore because of him. He doesn't want me to go overseas. I obeyed him for two years, and that's it. I'm over with everything. I realized I didn't really love him. I was only holding onto him because I had nothing."I love you, Beauty. I will not give up!""Oh, shut up! I don't love you anymore!" I said, step inside the house and shut the door. Part of me wants to listen to him, and th

Chapter 3. Kiss

Can I borrow your kiss? I promise I'll give it back.***Beauty's POV.There was no one inside when I entered the room. There's a massive drink on the table consumed. The song was paused on the big screen. I chuckled when I saw the music title on the big flat-screen TV. I shook my head."Too bad I can't do both. I can't sing and dance." I shrugged my shoulder.I shifted my body and noticed the other door that led to a small room was halfway open. I strode closer to check what was inside. But I paused, and my body froze when I heard a woman's voice moaning. I stepped backward and swallowed hard.Shit. I need to get out of here. Ceilo told me about this, and a lot of times, she remind me not to accept invites.I was almost at the door, but I froze at his presence. My heart pounded hard the moment our eyes met. He perplexly looked at me, and his brow furrowed."What are you doing here?" He asked, leaning his body on the side of the door's frame. I could no longer get out.If you come to

Chapter 4. Office work

I still remember the feeling I felt when we first kissed. -- Beauty's POV I woke up with a headache. Thank goodness it's Saturday today, and I have two days to fix myself in this mess. I stood up and went straight to the kitchen for a coffee. Oh my God! I nearly let go of my cup when I remembered what happened last night. My whole body felt cold when I remembered the kiss. I shook my head and laughed a little bit. That wasn't me. I'm a very reserved person, but the hell, yes, I was crazy. All I have is beauty but not brains. As I sipped my coffee, I found myself silently cursing while imagining his kisses that had the power to melt me. Oh, God! What's wrong with me? Oh, hang on, I forgot something. . . Ceilo! I grabbed my phone and dialed her number. "Ceilo? My goodness! Are you okay? Did you get home safely? I'm sorry I forgot about you." She laughed in the line before talking. "Don't you know that you are like that? Whenever you get drunk, you suddenly disappear. Wossh!"

Chapter 5. Dropped

'The best relationships usually begin unexpectedly.'***Drew's POV.Everything was running fast like a clock when it came to Monde. I'm glad I had the right people in these jobs. Xavion managed the rest during my absence, and now that I am back, the pile of paperwork has made me like a prisoner for two days. I'm glad that it was all sorted out."How did it go? I saw you with someone two nights ago. Who is she?" Xavion asked in the line.I grinned with mischief as I fixed the button on my polo shirt before answering him. "My new secretary.""Your —what? Where's Amalia?""She's on a holiday for two months. Her sister, Beauty Acuesta, will cover for two months." A thin smile crept onto my face when I received all her details the other day.I was ready to forget about her because of work, but her exquisite lips and addictive scent lingered in my nostrils. It's weird because it hasn't happened to me since, and her name, Beauty, suits her perfectly.I didn't expect that Beauty would be my

Chapter 6. Embrassed

Ninety percent of true love is acute - ear burning, embarrassment.***Beauty's POV.I could no longer put my best smile on, and I could no longer open my mouth. No matter how hard I try to speak, my tongue just retracts. He slightly frowned as he watched me and smiled a little bit—his index finger sliding on the table, playing like a piano, checking for dust."Beauty Acuesta," in his deep baritone voice.I composed myself once more and bit my inside cheek as we stared. I felt like melting at this moment. There was a dominant demand in how he looked at me, and I swallowed hard."Tell the heads for a meeting resume in thirty minutes," he calmly said.Meeting Resume? Have they started already without me? Is that why all the staff stood at their desk when I arrived? Oh, God, I'm doomed!"Y-Yes, Sir." I stammered and looked away, avoiding his gaze. I spun around to exit the room, but he called my name before I could reach the door."Hang on, Beauty.""Yes, sir!" I respond promptly, turni

Chapter 7. Only us

Believe in yourself a little bit more. *** Beauty's POV . Drew has a perfectly toned masculine physique that is quite impressive. I felt the tingling sensations crawl on me when I remembered our kiss. I shook my head slightly, attempting to clear my mind. Drew Mondragon has a reputation for maintaining a professional relationship with all his employees, so I was relieved he didn't bring up the incident. I must remind myself that he is my boss here, and I'm just nothing. With a snap of his fingers, he can quickly fire me. "Is that the best you can present? Do you want this company to disseminate?" Disseminate? I looked straight at Bobita and the rest of the head management. Their heads dipped halfway, avoiding eye contact with him. Drew Mondragon is not happy. I kept clicking the laptop's keyboard without a sentence. I am figuring out what to write. I was only away for six months, and the company is struggling. What kind of leadership do we have? Is this all you can do?" Drew

Chapter 8. Reckless

'Love is reckless, not reason. Reason seeks a profit.'***Beauty's POV.The food we ordered was served, and we began to eat. I was hungry, alright, but my first bite took a turn inside my stomach.I can't chew my food properly, and I'm having indigestion already. It's awkward, pretending not to know each other, and it's killing me. I hope today is not my last day.We've been so quiet eating, and the only noise I could hear was him clearing his throat now and then. I drank my water, trying to ease the tension I felt inside.Oh God, I want this to end. Come on, Universe, do me a favor, please. Take me out of here!I swallowed hard again, and Drew cleared his throat, dabbing his lips with a tissue before speaking."I want you to call me by my name when we're alone, Beauty," he said formally.Confused at what he meant by that, I raised my head to meet his gaze."What do you mean, Sir?" I blinked."I have a name, Beauty."Drew's jaw tightened as we both continued to stare at each other.

Chapter 9. Annoyed

I like you even though you annoy me more than I ever thought possible. But I want to spend every irritating minute with you.***Beauty's POV.As soon as I arrived home, I carelessly tossed my sling bag onto the couch.Who wouldn't get annoyed with my situation?Mr. Drew Mondragon returned half of the paperwork to me earlier, asking me to revise it.Darn him!That was a week of work for me. How come he couldn't understand anything? Is he doing this on purpose? I bet he is.If only I weren't late today, he'd probably be a little bit gentle with me about this. But no, not! He is a Mondragon, a closer cousin to a 'dragon'; cunning, vicious, temperament, sly, and extremely dangerous.I stopped pacing, now looking at the thick pile of papers. How am I going to finish this all overnight? Oh, God help me."Hello, Beauty? How's everything, my beautiful sister?" my sister Amalia asked in the line.I twisted my lips, and my shoulder deflated. I sat on the comfortable chair and raised both of m
