BEATRICE:"Thank God you finally answered, little one," Josh said on the other line, relief clearly evident in his voice. "I've been trying to reach you, but you won't answer, little one. Are you still mad at me? Please don't get mad at me. I don't like it when you get mad at me," he begged. His voice seemed to be sincere. Even the wolves wore sheep's clothing, Beatrice. They made others believe that they are kind and when everyone lowered their defense around them, that was the time when they will attack. Josh attacking me? Was he capable of doing that? Remember the rumors around his ex-husband? What if he was only wronged? What if…“Little One? Are you still mad at me?” he inquired, bringing me back to the present. “Why? Do you want me to pretend that I am not scared of you right now? Let me make it clear to you. At first, I really didn't want to answer, Josh. Do you think I could trust you after everything?" I asked. “I will win your trust, I promise. You were able to forg

BEATRICE:"HEY," I called Drake when we finished eating. He was the one who cooked. After the talk with Josh over the phone, we never went back to sleep again and instead cooked some breakfast. I tried to make him talk to me, but he was stubborn like a rock. “I'm talking to a wall,” I muttered while rolling my eyes. “Earth to Drake. Please have mercy on me. I don't want others to think that I am crazy. I am not, so please answer me.”He did not even spare me a glance and went directly to the kitchen and put all the dishes. Grayson went to the living room and waited for us while I went after him going to the kitchen carrying used plates. "Are you deaf?"He did not answer. Instead, he grabbed some sponge and put some soap in it and started washing the dishes. "Put everything there. I will wash the dishes," he said. I did as I was told. This was the first time that he had talked to me after answering Josh's call. The latter no longer called me again. For now. But Josh was not like t

BEATRICE:A gasp escaped my lips when I realized what I just said. I confessed my feelings for him! Why did it feel as if I said the most heinous crime of all? It was because you were never used to expressing your feelings to Drake. You were scared that it would be another painful experience from him. I averted my gaze, hoping to escape his questioning, but he held my chin and forced me to look at him. "Doll…You...do you love me, doll?" he asked as if he was going to cry from now on. “Please tell me I was not hearing things, doll. Please don't make my hopes high only to be crushed again,” he begged. My heart quickened while my cheeks burned. For how many years, I had been hiding my feelings for him. In the past, he believed that I did not want divorce because of the family tradition. But it was not the real reason. It was because I loved him so much that I did not want to lose him in my life. Why don't you tell your feelings, Beatrice. How long will you keep on hiding what you f

BEATRICE:My parents, whom I had not seen for a couple of years? My stomach churned over. “W-Why would you see them?”If he was truly seeing them, I admired his courage. Meeting my parents after the divorce was not something I was now ready to face. When will you ever get ready? He gave me a shrug as if it did not matter to him. “It's undeniable that your parents are one of the wealthiest families in the country. Plus, your brother's company is successful too. Your family has the money, doll.”Was he aware that it sounded wrong on so many levels? “So you're willing to meet them? Will you beg Mom to finance your business?” I asked. “Mom is not a saint, Drake. You know how she is. She's ruthless sometimes.”Meeting Mom…I never thought about that. I was willing to forget about them to make everything easier for them. They were disappointed at me for breaking the family's decision and I was already fine with that. “That's your Mom, doll. You're badmouthing your Mom,” he reminded.

BEATRICE:My heart hammered against my chest as I latched my arms on my ex-husband. My head was asking if I could handle this or if this was the best thing to do. “Are you sure about this, babe? I can still go back or maybe it’s best to stay in your car and wait until the meeting will end?” I offered an explanation.He shook his head. “That’s nonsense. We are here. I am also dying to let everyone know about you. You deserved that the world knows about you, doll.”“I don’t care if they will not know my face, alright? It’s no big deal for me,” I explained, hoping he would buy it. But he did not when he said that there was no turning back already. That I already made a commitment. We entered Drake's building which I only saw on televisions in the past. Back then, when I saw it, I would automatically turn off the television, hating the fact that why did he keep on being successful when he was an asshole in real life? That he did not even know how to love his family? Yeah. My heart was

BEATRICE:Yes, I was jealous of my niece for having the attention of her grandparents. It was not the child's fault, but I also wanted my child to experience the love of my parents. Would that be a crime to ask for that?Sometimes, Grayson would ask me about his grandparents and would sometimes ask for their pictures. I did not have any. So I would just say that they were deleted on my phone when some kind of virus entered my phone's system."Drake...do you think...""They will love Grayson, doll. I am sure they will. In fact, my family is waiting for me to bring him to them. But of course, with your permission. I don't want you to give me any headaches. Though Grayson is both our son, I wanted to respect your decision. Please tell me if you allow me, so that I can arrange a meeting directly with my family.""Would they be happy to see him even if he is my child? Mom hated me to the point of disowning me. Do you think Grayson will be hated because I am his mom?”"Doll, my family? The

BEATRICE:DADDY?I admit that this woman could pass as Drake's daughter. They looked so much alike. Their nose. Their eyes. The shape of their faces. Maybe she was the one whom he was talking to in the past? About having a child but then his partner never let him see them?She looked so young. She looked after Drake. The resemblance between them was undeniable. My eyes shifted back to Drake and the newcomer. "Zereka. Will you stop playing pranks? Beatrice might believe that you are my child. You always fool a lot of people already. Quit doing that right now. This is a company and not your playing ground. What are you? A child?” Drake scolded. The child did not say anything at all. Instead, she laughed out loud while holding her tummy. "Drakey! You should have seen the look on her eyes. She looked as if she had seen a ghost. Oh, my goodness. Your woman is so gullible. I don’t like her anymore."I faltered. A child who did not know how to filter her words was the best of all. "St

BEATRICE:If Drake was here, I would never know why Zereka was here. If Drake was here, she would keep on pretending to be the sweet little sister of his. She could fool anyone with that sweet face of hers. "I'm sorry, but you don't have a say on that, too. We have chosen ourselves to love each other and even if a million people would be against our path, our love will remain strong. That includes you, by the way."It was a cheesy statement. I never thought the time would come when I would say those words, but here it was.She threw back her head and laughed. "Love? Are you freaking kidding me? Don't tell me that kind of bullshit. Love does not exist. Only lust." I was taken aback at her curse. My forehead knotted seeing how she bawled her palms into a fist. "Are you perhaps..." Did she perhaps not experience how to be in love? That she did not know how it felt? That she believed it was all lies? Right. I remembered. This woman was Drake's half-sister. And Drake's family had n

BEATRICE:Relax. Don’t fret. Control yourself, Beatrice. You will not lose your control because of that woman.“Did you hear me? She pulled my hair!”“Why would Beatrice do that, Zereka? She’s not the type to—”She sniffed. “You never listened to me, Drakey. You always believed that I was making a scene. That I am lying to you. How could I do that? I love you so much that I will never ever lie to you,” she declared, cutting off his words before he could even finish it. Rude. Every time she said that she loved her brother, the hair on my arms would always stand. It always felt like it had a double meaning. “Do you know what she called me? A bitch, Drake. I’m only eighteen years old and someone already called me a bitch!”“Beatrice. Is that true?”“What do you want to hear, Drake?” I asked. “Tell me so that I will tell you right away. Don’t waste my time anymore.”“Doll… I’m not saying anything wrong. All I wanted is you to tell me your side. I don't want to take sides as much as pos

BEATRICE:“Beatrice? Are you still there?”What a bastard.He knows that Christina had her miscarriage, yet he called her?“Yes, I am here. What is it again?”“Is there no chance that the two will reconcile?”Exhaling, I inquired, “Did you call because he asked you?”“I was about to call you even if he did not call. But he got the right timing. He called me first before I was able to call you.”“Christina, the next time he calls you, don’t answer it.”“Why?" she asked, her voice full of curiosity. "Did something happen between you two that I was not aware of?"I bit the inside of my cheeks, debating if I should tell her or not.She's still not fully recovered, Beatrice. what if she will be sent to the hospital again, because of stress?There was a point, there. "N-No. Nothing happened.""So why are you evading him as if he is bringing the plague?""I-It's because of Drake. I have decided that I will give him a chance."I heard her mutter a few curses in the background. With a faint v
