Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258: 258-Rayden’s Humiliation

Helanie:

"What is going on, Rayden? What is she saying?" I was sure Dewitt would never have confronted Rayden in front of all of us under normal circumstances, but now that his daughter had made it a public matter, he had no choice.

Rayden walked forward at an excruciatingly slow pace, his eyes darting around to everyone in the room.

"This is getting interesting," Emmet remarked, quickly turning back to his seat and settling in as if he were watching a show. Malarkey and Dewitt noticed his actions, and their expressions soured even more.

"I don’t know what she’s talking about. I’ve been at home," Rayden responded, his voice subdued, especially since it was about the alpha’s daughter.

"Dewitt, maybe we should go home and discuss this privately," Malarkey suggested. This wasn’t the kind of public humiliation they had hoped for.

"No!" Jenny abruptly pulled away from her father’s embrace, yelling, "I’m not going back home to talk about this! You all always dismiss my concerns."

Her voice was so loud that even the maids rushed out to see what was going on.

I could tell Rayden wanted to silence Jenny forcefully, but with her brother and father standing in his way, he didn’t dare.

"Daughter, I will not dismiss your concerns," Dewitt said softly. But it seemed he had already lost Jenny’s trust; she shook her head and stepped away from him.

"We would have talked about it if I had cheated on you. But I didn’t, so—" Rayden clenched his jaw but quickly changed his tone, trying to sound composed.

He sounded more annoyed than anything, as if the questioning itself offended him.

Emmet sat with his arm bent, fist under his chin, watching the scene with an excited sparkle in his eyes.

"But you did," said a new voice, calm yet sharp.

The voice belonged to a stunning redhead who walked in wearing stilettos. Everyone turned to stare at her and then at each other.

I recognized her. Lamar had told me about her. It seemed the alphas knew her too, judging by the number of times she’d been invited to pack parties to dance.

"Rona. My name is Rona," she introduced herself with a hand on her hip and a snarky smile playing on her lips.

"I don’t know her!" Rayden shouted instantly, trying to shut down any ideas forming in people’s minds.
