Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 332

Chapter 332: 332-I Know Your Truth

Helanie:

Sage and Rudy were gone after that. Lamar and I told Gavin all about the tenth floor so that we could look at Lucy’s case with a new motive and fresh ideas.

"That is creepy—so there is a survivor?" Gavin had been too shocked ever since he heard us tell him everything about the tenth floor.

"Yep! Seems like there was one. Helanie seems to have a weird magnetic pull that attracts these entities," Lamar joked, but it stuck with me.

He wasn’t wrong.

First Rune, and now the entity from the tenth floor.

"But finding the survivor would be difficult. You said Professor Norman promised to help you. Has he found out anything yet?" Gavin inquired, and I rolled my eyes.

"He is just full of talk. We will have to find out for ourselves. We’ll go to the library and check everything about the abandoned building that is now an academy," I suggested, watching them nod in agreement.

"But first, I want to go meet Lucy. I haven’t been able to visit her because I feel like if she hears me talk, she will be so upset," Gavin muttered, quickly finishing his sandwich to make it seem like he wasn’t crying.

Lamar and I shared a glance as we agreed with him. Gavin took a cab while I went to the hospital with Lamar.

"Lucy!" The minute Gavin entered her room, he broke down beside her bed. She was sleeping so peacefully, but she needed to wake up.

"Please just forgive me. I am ready for any punishment you give me, just please—," Gavin lowered his head, his tears wetting his palms.

I guess we all make mistakes, but this kind of punishment is hard to watch.

"You know, we grew up as friends. Her family was our neighbors. When my dad left me and my mom, her mother stepped up and did everything she could to help us out. And to think—I am the reason her daughter is in this state today. You know, she hates me. When I went back home, she was at the door, and she cursed at me," he sniffled, constantly trying to wipe his eyes with the back of his hand. "She said I will never be happy, and she is not wrong. I can never be happy," he continued.

"She said she wishes she hadn’t helped us so that I would have starved to death in my childhood. And who can blame her? She fed a monster, and then the monster grew up and fed on her daughter," Gavin was out of breath, hiccupping when Lamar patted his back and offered him a glass of water.

"We will find a way to bring her back, Gavin. Remember, we are going to look for the survivor? I’m pretty sure there will be some information in the library about it," I spoke gently, choosing my words carefully.

"And then Professor Norman might have some information for us as well," Lamar gave me a look, reminding me not to dismiss Norman’s help. At least it would help Gavin feel hopeful. _{fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm}

He was really in despair, and we needed him in a sane mind to do proper research. Besides, we couldn’t lose another friend.

"You heard me, Luce! I will find a way for you to wake up and be on your feet again. After you left the academy, nothing has been the same—" he was crying hysterically when my eyes moved to Lucy’s face.

"Is she—" I noticed some expressions forming on her face.

"Lamar—" I held his hand and shook it, signaling him to look at Lucy.

Lamar looked as shocked as I was.
