Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352: 352-She Changed Faster Than A Weather

Maximus:

I had told Helanie to take her time but to let me know when she made her decision. I was really excited to be with her. Every time I saw her through the crowd, I felt at home. She was so charming, beautiful, smart, and loyal.

There was so much about her that I wanted to learn more about—her smile, her eyes, her dreams, and wishes. I could sit and write a book about them, even though I don’t like writing books.

I laughed to myself and strolled into my room to change.

I had called my mom to talk to her about Kaye, but her beta told me she was in the restroom. I didn’t ask too many questions because she’s an adult, but the fact that her beta was always by her side made me raise an eyebrow.

Mainly because she always complained that Dad moved on and she didn’t. I didn’t want to be involved in their drama anymore. Especially because Ursula was Helanie’s mother, and hurting her or saying anything bad about her would upset Helanie.

"I heard you called," Mom said from the other side as I answered her call. I needed to change my clothes, and I couldn’t tell where my AirPods were, so I just put my phone on speaker for a while.

Now that I was in my room, I received another call from my mother.

"Yes, Mom, I was calling you, but your beta said you were in the bathroom," I responded, taking off my shirt and throwing it on the bed.

"Yeah, I was. Tell me, is Helanie buying your act of being in love with her?"

The minute she asked me that question, my mood soured.

I stopped dead in my tracks while reaching for the closet and placed a hand on my forehead, trying to figure out what to expect next.

"Yeah, Mom. I told you I’d let you know when there’s progress. But rest assured, she is in love with me and has fallen for my lies."

I knew I had to respond because Mom was waiting for me.

But I didn’t mean a single word. A few weeks ago, Mom had asked me to make Helanie fall for me so that she could stir up tension between my dad and Helanie’s mother.

I didn’t accept her plan—until I started falling for Helanie myself.

At first, I flirted with her just to see what would happen, but after the first time, I was already falling for her. She was so amazing. And then I told my mom I would do it.

Just so she wouldn’t find out from someone else that I was with Helanie and try to ruin it for me. So every time her trusted men told her they had seen me with Helanie, my mom would let it slide.

My plan was simple.
