**BEAUTY'S POV**"What ,what ,gosh am dead!"I woke up following that loud scream from Bruno,only to realize that I had slept off,while typing those documents. I carefully removed a paper glued to my cheek ,slowly I glanced at the blurred image of Bruno opposite me."What's wrong baby"i asked and yawned tiredly. He ignored me for a minute, i became worried.I tried again praying I don't upset him."Baby..."."why didn't you wake me ,the time you done typing?"he fumed without looking up at me,moving the documents to and fro.I could tell he was really mad by that sound in his voice,I can't do all this to be over.I was careless and he is right to be mad at me for it,I just hope the damages won't be much. "Baby...when you slept off, I wanted to you rest,you've really worked tirelessly and..need to ..."Really?...oh please don't sound stupid Beauty!"he snapped,his brows arched and his nose expanded a little bit,he bit his lower lips and continued work the files."Baby I only wanted ..
