Mandy woke up almost noon the following day. She saw a woman whose back was facing her.
"Mom," Mandy uttered in a hoarse voice.
Emma turned around when she heard Mandy.
Emma walked towards Mandy."Madam, finally you're awake. How are you feeling?" She asked.
Mandy did not answer as she felt a lump in her throat. Tears burned her eyes at the thought of her mom.
Yesterday, she wished to die to be with her mom. She wanted to break free from the pain and grief she's suffering. She thought that she would die. She felt so weak and tired that she could not even cry. She felt like her eyes were so dry and her whole body was numb that she became emotionless.
Mandy wept bitterly. She hated that she woke up. She does not want to feel the deep sorrow and pain caused by her mom's death.
"Madam, it's alright. You can cry all you want
Andrew curled his lips. He felt delighted when he heard Mandy asking him to kiss her.He gazed at her and slowly lowered his head to kiss her on the lips. However, as soon as his lips touched hers, Mandy dozed off.The next day, Mandy woke up with a bad headache. She went directly to the kitchen to get an ice pack."Madam, you woke up on time. I just finished cooking the hangover soup for you. I'll serve it in a while."
"Ms. Megan Brown, what are you doing here?" Andrew asked with his forehead furrowed. "Mr. Bradford, she's the new General Manager I was referring to earlier," Patrick answered. Andrew turned to Patrick. "Alright, you may leave now." Then, he said to Megan. "Have a seat." "Surprised?" Megan asked with a lovely grin as she sat down on the couch. Andrew did not answer her question. Although he was really surprised to see her, particularly when he learned that she was their new General Manager. He stood up, moved towards the couch, and sat down in front of Megan. "What can I do for you, Ms. Brown?" Andrew asked coldly. If not for Mr. Brown, he would not accommodate her. "I just want to say hi and let you know that I started working here three days ago. Unfortunately, you were on a business trip, so I took this
Mandy just gave Megan a faint smile even though she was a little puzzled by her statement. It was the first time she met her, but Megan seemed to know a lot of things about her. Suddenly, a scene flashbacked in her mind wherein she bumped into a woman during the wake of her mom. Now, she remembered where she heard her familiar voice. Mandy glanced at Megan. She could not remember her face clearly the first time she saw her in her mom's wake since she just threw her a glimpse at that time. But now, She was amazed at her beauty when she looked at her more closely. "Do you want to drink?" Megan asked when the waiter approached them with glasses of wine. She took two glasses and handed one to Andrew while the other one to Mandy. Mandy was going to take the glass from Megan but Andrew quickly grabbed it and gave it back to the waiter. "She's not allowed to drink." Andrew declared in a low but auth
Andrew walked in the direction of the mansion. When he came in, he ran into Megan, who was supposed to go out. "Andrew," Megan called him in a soft voice. "Did you see my wife and Doctor Taylor?" Andrew asked, annoyed. He was irritated at the thought that Mandy was with Marco. "Yeah, I'll take you to her. Mandy told us that she was feeling sick, so I suggested bringing her to the guest room. Marco was checking her up." Megan explained as she walked. Megan led Andrew to the guest room, where she left Mandy with Doctor Taylor. After a short while, they reached the room. However, when Megan opened the door, Andrew was shocked by the scene he witnessed. He saw that Mandy and Doctor Taylor were so intimate with each other. Mandy was lying on the bed while Marco was sitting on her side with his head bowed down, caressing Mandy's face. Andrew speedily en
Andrew halted his steps when he heard Megan's question. He turned and glanced at her. "I'm going back to work. Thanks for the meal." Andrew uttered, then he walked out of the pantry. Megan was left disappointed. Andrew did not answer her question, which means that he did not want to confirm nor deny it. But looking at his unconcerned reaction, she thought that she might be wrong. Another three days had passed, but Mandy and Andrew were still cold towards each other. They seldom saw one another since they were both busy with their own affairs. Until Friday afternoon, Mandy went home with red bulging eyes. Emma noticed it as soon as Mandy entered the living room. "Madam, are you okay?" Mandy felt a lump in her throat that she didn't manage to utter a single word. Tears welled up in her eyes again. "Madam, tell me. What happene
Andrew got some light on the mystery of Janeth Collins's death. However, he didn't understand. What's the motive and connection of the person in the picture to Janeth Collins? They all know that she was going to die soon, that's why the crime was performed perfectly. It only means that the person waited for the right time to execute the plan. Andrew leaned back against the chair as he held his forehead. He needed to get sufficient evidence to prove who the culprit was. He should think of ways how he would deal with it to find out the truth. However, he could not tell anyone, especially Mandy, about his suspicion and now, his findings of the real cause of death of Janeth Collins. Mandy was so emotional and impulsive. He was certain that she would not stop until she got justice for her mom. After a while, he stood up and went to their room. He saw Mandy sleeping soundly. He sat down beside the
Simon was agitated at how Andrew treated his wife. Charm was also disappointed. She thought that she was wrong when she assumed that Andrew loves Mandy. She also recalled the nasty side of him when she visited his mansion. Hence, she didn't stop Simon from what he's going to do.From the kitchen, Mandy was occasionally looking at the dining area. She suddenly felt anxious when she noticed that Simon was going in the direction of Andrew with a gloomy expression on his face.Startlingly, the sound of breaking glass was heard that caught everyone's attention. Charm and Andrew instantly got up from their seats while Simon halted his steps. Nonetheless, they had no idea that Mandy deliberately shoved the bottle of milk."Ouch!" Mandy blurted out as she automatically bent down when small pieces of broken crystals splattered into her legs while the milk spilled out onto the floor. But of course, she didn't mean to hurt herself.
Mandy could not believe it. She was so drowsy that she didn't open her eyes and thought that what was happening was merely a dream. Or did she really like what happened just now? She was only in denial about the reality that she was beginning to love every Andrew's move? Meanwhile, Andrew couldn't also believe what just transpired. It was the first time that Mandy didn't protest the time he kissed her lips. Surprisingly, she returned to his kiss affectionately, and what amazed him more was the moment she responded to his moves. The next morning, Mandy woke up late as she could hardly go back to sleep after what happened last night. She hurriedly took a shower and went downstairs to have breakfast. However, she was surprised to see that Andrew was still there sitting in the dining hall. "Good morning, Madam." Emma cheerfully greeted her. "G-good mo
