Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254: 254-I Make Him Uncomfortable

Helanie:

My stepbrothers coming to help me meant a lot, but I was still shaken by Dewitt’s hostility toward me. And then Rayden touching me had ignited a spark of anger.

To the point that I nearly jeopardized my position in the eyes of the Council. Now, as my stepbrothers walked over and stood in front of me, I couldn’t look past them. The way Norman had asked me what had happened gave me the feeling that no harm could get to me now. I felt safe. However, the issues were still unresolved.

But now my stepbrothers had to address Dewitt’s burning questions.

"Because it’s unusual for trainers to not only defend their student but also give her a place in their home, free food, therapy, and even—" Dewitt paused briefly before chuckling to himself. It sounded like a laugh of disbelief.

"Their own car and a driver, like she’s some kind of Luna," he scoffed as he finished, making my heart skip a beat.

I had a feeling those questions would surface once people noticed I’d been driving Maximus’ car. I should have been careful. I felt a sudden guilt for making my stepbrothers go through this because of my own carelessness.

"We don’t owe you any explanations, Mr. Dewitt. Anyway, we’ll take our student and leave now," Norman hissed, turning to gesture for me to follow him.

"She can’t leave without apologizing for assaulting—" Dewitt’s words were cut short by Kaye groaning.

"Sure, she’ll apologize," Kaye said, shocking even his brothers until he added, "and then you can send your warriors to the academy to pick up your kids and Rayden’s expulsion letter." The moment he said that, the entire kitchen fell silent.

"All this for a student?" Dewitt’s focus remained on the idea that something was suspicious about my relationship with my trainers.

"Yep! We woke up and chose justice. So tell us, what is it?" Maximus asked in a threatening tone.

I stayed hidden behind them, not even attempting to step out. Lamar casually strolled closer and nudged me with his elbow, giving me a knowing look that something was about to happen soon.

I didn’t understand it in the moment; I was too focused on what Dewitt might say next.

"Step aside. They’re leaving." Giving up on his demand for an apology, Dewitt ordered his warriors, who wouldn’t have been able to stop the brothers if they’d wanted to leave anyway.

The warriors backed off, and Norman turned, signaling for me to go first. I began walking out with Lamar, and the brothers followed us.

"The Tenth Floor, Helanie? Didn’t we already talk about this?" Norman began, his voice gruff and angry. I should’ve known he wouldn’t miss this chance to scold me. And honestly, this time, I felt like I might actually deserve it. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}
