Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58: 58-The Two Handsome Hunks

Helanie:

"I don’t even need her apology. I don’t like making anyone feel low or disrespected. But since she’s shown no respect for my job, I suppose it’s fine. I’ll accept her apology," Prim forced a weak, triumphant smile, trying to look both innocent and full of herself.

"What are you babbling about?" Emmet groaned at her.

"I didn’t ask her to apologize to you. I’m telling you to apologize to Helanie for your mistreatment of her and for causing her stress when she should be resting," Kaye asserted, his tone clear and leaving everyone in shock.

Prim’s mouth dropped open, her gaze fixed on Kaye.

"But why would I apologize? I didn’t even do anything wrong," she replied in a softer tone, but I could tell that neither of the brothers believed her.

"So, you checked on her multiple times, right? And all the party leftovers, the movies left on the TV, the mess in the living room and the kitchen—those must all be Helanie’s doing too, right?" Kaye faced her, calling her out.

"Umm, we were just bored, so—" she stammered, flinching as Kaye slipped his hands into his pockets.

"If you were doing your job properly, Helanie wouldn’t have had to break the glass to get your attention. Yet you still had the nerve to belittle her and make her look bad when your job was to look after her. That amazes me," Kaye stepped closer, towering over her. Emmet leaned against the wall, smirking.

This was the first time I’d seen Emmet take pleasure in someone’s misery.

"You’re fired. All of you are," Kaye enunciated each word, and chaos erupted among the group.

"But we didn’t do anything! It was the nurses—they were bitter about having to care for a wolf-less girl," one doctor protested, now trying to shift blame as their jobs hung in the balance.

"Oh, really?" Emmet turned to the nurse, who gasped.

"We didn’t do anything! It was only Prim who spoke badly about the patient," one of the nurses, who had earlier complained about me bothering them, quickly tried to cover herself.

"She has a name—Helanie," Emmet corrected her sharply before adding, "You’re all fired. You heard my brother. Now get out of here."

He raised his hand in a dismissive wave, not even looking at them, as though exhausted by the topic being dragged out. The doctors and nurses looked devastated as they were ushered out of the farmhouse.

"We need to hire better staff for our people," Kaye remarked, stepping closer to my bed, only to be unintentionally edged aside by Emmet, who leaned in before him.

"Helanie! They really put you through a lot," he murmured, bending down and gently lifting my chin with his finger to examine my face. His touch was so gentle, and his gaze lingered on my features with such intensity. Did he even know how incredibly attractive he was in our realm?

"What about the exam?" I asked as he straightened, clearly disheartened by my injuries.

"Of course. But to do that, you need to heal first," Emmet said, placing his hand gently on my head, petting it like one would a small, beloved puppy. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}
