Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524: 524-Taking A Road With My Husband

Helanie:

"You seem very excited to stay at the hostel," Norman commented, watching me load some of my new stuff into the car to head to the academy for the weekdays. After I came home from the council meeting, I got a few calls from classmates who showed their support.

I didn’t talk to them—or anyone—about the council meeting again. I needed some time before speaking about it. There was something that had stuck with me since the battle day was decided.

"Yeah, Jenny is coming today," I grinned, trying to open the back door of the car when Norman quietly opened the passenger side door for me.

I didn’t argue and slid into the passenger seat. We argued a lot—like Tom and Jerry.

"And I’m so excited to see her," I babbled while he stood outside my door, fixing the seatbelt for me.

"She said she has some good news for me. I wonder what it is," I shrugged, getting comfortable as Norman handed me a water bottle.

He then walked over to his side, sat in the driver’s seat, buckled up, and hit the road.

"So... what exactly happened to Jenny?" Norman asked, showing interest in the gossip for the first time.

Usually, he only paid attention to what the leave application said. But maybe because I was talking so much, he decided to join the conversation.

"Do you ever listen to me?" I complained, folding my arms across my chest and grunting at him.

"This is the problem with people who talk a lot. You didn’t tell me anything—probably told someone else," he groaned.

I tilted my head, thinking back, and realized... I hadn’t told him.

He was right—and I hated that.

"Fine," I groaned and looked out the window.

"Now tell me. What happened to her? I’m all ears," his voice softened a little, so I turned back to him.

"Lucy says the entity from the tenth floor went inside Jenny."

As soon as I said that, Norman lost control of the car and almost ran into a tree.

Almost!

Thankfully.

"Norman, are you okay?" I shouted as he slammed the brakes, both hands tight on the steering wheel, eyes wide.

"What made her say that?" he asked, not even mentioning his near-death driving.

"She says she hears the entity speaking in crowds but can’t tell where the voice is coming from. But every time it happens, Jenny is always the one making eye contact with her," I explained, noticing how lost he looked. The way he was staring at my face really scared me.

"Then you shouldn’t be staying at the hostel," he said suddenly, starting the car again to make a turn.
