Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 766

Chapter 766: 766-A Mother Must Sacrifice

Author’s POV:

Charlotte took a deep breath while sitting in the car with her mother.

"Do you see what Helanie has been up to?" she asked Charlotte, who was fidgeting nervously with her fingers.

"Yeah, I don’t know. I haven’t paid attention to her," Charlotte said, half lost in thought.

Her mother had been noticing her for a while, and she couldn’t help but wonder what was going on with Charlotte. She would stay on long phone calls with Darcy. She would even visit Darcy without Emma, and Emma did not like it. She wanted to know what was going on because she did not trust Darcy at all.

"Charlotte," Emma extended her hand to place it on the back of Charlotte’s hand, gently nudging her awake. "What is going on with you? Is there something bothering you? Did Darcy say something to you?" Emma asked, worried that Darcy must have put some burden of responsibility on Charlotte that was making her so worried. She thought her daughter was too innocent to be dealing with that cunning woman alone.

"Actually, I have been meaning to talk with you, mother, about this issue," Charlotte said, gently placing her hand on her chest and then tucking her dress in her fingers, almost like hiding her cleavage. But she wasn’t wearing a deep neck. It was just the sense of suffocation she was feeling, or probably guilt.

"You know you can talk to me about anything, and I will never judge you," Emma said, happy that her daughter was finally going to open up about whatever was going on in her life.

"I wanted to know if I’m a bad daughter," Charlotte asked, and Emma was quick to shake her head to let her daughter know that not at all. She was the best daughter she could have ever asked for.

"You know who is the bad daughter?" Emma asked. "Helanie. Look how she is making her mother suffer. You, on the other hand, you are the best daughter. You always listen to me. You never got me embarrassed. But Helanie, she makes her mother suffer so much, always in a drama. It is one thing or another. I always tell everyone very proudly that I am so glad Charlotte is my daughter. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them," Emma said very proudly. But she noticed that her daughter still did not smile.

"Okay, now you are worrying me. At least just tell me," she insisted. And Charlotte let out a deep breath.

"You think Helanie is a bad daughter?" she asked her mother. And Emma was quick to nod her head.

"She is the worst. I would not even wish her upon my worst enemy." Then, she noticed how Charlotte moved her head and gently tapped on the shoulder of her driver.

"Can you please stop the car here?" she asked, stopping the car in the middle of the road, next to the woods.

"What is going on? Why are we stopping here? Is somebody coming here to meet us?" Emma started to bombard her with questions. Questions that were so hard for Charlotte to answer.
