Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793: 793-Betrayed While Pregnant

Helanie:

"What is going on?" I demanded, hands on my waist.

"Nothing," she insisted, but her voice started to break down.

"No, something is up. You guys need to tell me," I pressed again, this time with a lot more force.

"Nothing, I told you," Jenny stuttered.

So I turned to Lamar. "You told her not to tell me, right? What is it, Lamar?" I didn’t like that he was hiding things from me. The way he scratched the back of his neck made me believe it was something really serious.

"You’re pregnant and we don’t want you to worry about it. But you’re right. Maybe you should know," he muttered, closing his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose.

Whatever it was, it had to be serious or else Lamar wouldn’t have such a hard time telling me. We had shared so many secrets, so many painful memories, it made no sense he was this worried.

"You tell me," I pushed, trying to sound normal as if I was fine. He could share anything with me.

So he did.

"I think Professor Norman has been giving therapy to Lucy a lot ever since he returned," Lamar said with great pauses, raising the anxiety in my body. But the news itself broke me instantly. My smile faded, though I nodded, trying to steady my voice.

"Oh yeah, I know," I whispered. The two looked at each other and sighed in relief.

"Yeah, I know," I repeated.

However, I noticed Lamar’s relief started to fade.

"So, we’ll go and see what Gavin is doing. Do you want us to come inside with you?" he asked, already knowing I was going after Norman.

"No, I’ll do it myself." With a broken smile, I gestured to him that I would be fine. I turned and started walking toward the academy. I had a feeling I was about to see something that would either anger me or break me so much I’d never be able to trust anyone again.

With every step I took toward the academy, I felt anxiety build up in me. It didn’t make any sense. Why would Norman not tell me? I remembered when she kissed him on the cheek and he didn’t say anything. In relationships, things like that can cause a lot of trouble. You can’t just hide them for the sake of protecting your partner. Because if it happens repeatedly, then it’s not about protecting them, it’s because you’re guilty. And that is cheating.

I had so much going on, and with Cora silent inside me, I had no one else to speak to. I could talk to Norman’s brothers about it, but I didn’t want to go gossiping about him to them.

When I reached the academy, I saw it was dark since no classes were being held. The whole place looked abandoned and lonely. I took a deep breath and headed for the big office, where I could hear noises inside. Placing a hand on the door handle, I pushed it open with force.

And what I saw blew my mind. Norman was standing by the window, his back turned, his face toward the door where I stood. Lucy was in front of him, her hands behind her back, wearing denim shorts so short half her butt was showing.

Before I could reach her, Norman stepped between us, spreading his arms as if to stop me from touching her. It broke me right there. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
