Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418: 418-My Stepbrother Is So Hot

Helanie:

"Huh?" he asked.

"Nothing. I’ll go back to the hostel now," I said, freeing my hand, but he wasn’t letting me go. He was holding me so effortlessly in place that he confused me with his strength.

"Come inside, we’ll talk first, and then you can leave," his commanding voice stirred something inside me.

I reluctantly followed him inside and entered his room. He locked the door behind us, causing my heart to miss a beat.

Then, he lit a candle, making me realize there was no electricity tonight due to the heavy rain and storm.

"Have a seat," he pulled a chair for me near his, then sat down on his chair himself. I took my seat and watched him put the decor on the table. It was an antique paperweight.

"So, what were you saying? I asked you that I would drop you to the hostel?" It wasn’t a threat or anything, more like him trying to recall ever saying that.

"You did," I said, and he cocked his head in bewilderment.

"I don’t remember." It almost came like a horror, the way he uttered it and looked around.

"I really don’t remember. I’m so sorry," he was genuine in his apology, but that didn’t change the fact that he might have not remembered.

"It’s okay, of course, you forgot. You had a busy day," I scoffed, feeling like a fool and too controlling of a person to be upset over something that I had no business in.

"Umm, something else. You have something on your mind that you’re unwilling to come clean about. Tell me, what do you mean by that?" He pulled my seat even closer by dragging it from the side of my legs and placed his hands on my seat’s armrests.

"It’s nothing really. It’s your life, and I have no business in it. I’m just upset that you didn’t remember your promise to me," I could only act like this in front of him. Whenever he would take care of me or do his little concerned gestures to convince me that I meant something to him, I would feel so much better.

"Helanie, tell me," he insisted, and in a miserable moment, I confessed.

"You were out and about with Sage on a date." The minute I said that, I shocked myself—and him too.

"I’m not intervening in your life, but you could have at least told me to arrange my own ride back home," I said, quickly trying to do damage control.

"Hmmm, so me dating Sage isn’t the problem then?" he shocked me when he bobbed his head. _{ƒrēewebnovel.com}

I could be reading him wrong, but it appeared as though he wanted to know my reaction to him dating her.
