134-The Brothers And Their Girlfriends.
“I cannot believe this is what has been happening behind everyone’s back. Does her mother even
know what her daughter has been doing behind her back? Or did she put her up for this?” Lady Sofia
has been constantly shouting ever since she dragged me downstairs to speak to the brothers about
what she saw.
“You have just arrived. Tell me, how are you?” Akin taunt- ed, steadily getting between us, and then
held my arm to see the bruise his mother left.
“How do you think I am after seeing such a thing?” Lady Sofia muttered, watching her son hold my arm
to examine the bruise and then pull away from me after he disapproved of his mother’s behavior with
me.
I was standing in the corner with my hands tied over my chest and looking all guilty. I didn’t know she
would come to visit the mansion because I thought she and Lord Vasquez were on bad terms.
“Don’t give her a hard time. She is nice enough to stand here and not say anything back to you.
Otherwise, you know girls these days,” Akin continued to take my side while walk- ing around the living
room. I noticed how cold he was towards his mother.
“I don’t care. She can try to talk back to me,” Lady Sofia squared up, giving me an attitude. I was only

of them. Besides, they were tak- ing my side and arguing with their mother for me, so I didn’t need to
speak for myself.
“But what is bothering you so much?” Helel walked back into the living room with a glass of fresh
orange juice that he had squeezed out for me.
He handed me the glass and eyed me, telling me not to bother his mother and to enjoy the drink.
“I saw her with my son, holding a – – – I don’t even want to say it,” Lady Sofia was watching her sons
act like I was all they cared about, and I could tell she wasn’t liking it very much.
“Then don’t say it,” Helel said, standing beside me with his hands in his pants.
“Beatrice! Go back to your room,” Akin said when he no- ticed I wasn’t able to take a sip because of the
stress his mother was putting me under.
“No! She is not going anywhere. I want to know why she was holding a dildo in my son’s face.” Lady
Sofia questioned again. I felt weird every time she said that in front of them.
Everybody looked my way and then at their mother.
“Mom! Why would you automatically assume something nasty?” Helel cleared his throat and took my
side again. I was surprised he didn’t ask me to explain myself. Instead, he want- ed his mother to not
repeat those words.
“She is a bit shy type, mom! Try not to offend her by giv- ing it a wrong look,” Akin described me in kind
words, making me clasp my fingers around the glass even tightly this time.
“What is happening here? Did you not hear what I said? Why would a stepsister give her brother a
dildo?” She finally raised her voice once she was done trying to instigate them. It was clear at this point
that they were not going against me.
“She did not. I was being mischievous!” Maddox finally walked into the living room to clear the air.
“I threw that thing on her to tease her. She was only react- ing to it in anger,” he lied, placing his hands
on his waist to challenge his mother.
“You are taking the blame to save her ass?” Lady Sofia yelled. The look she gave when Maddox stood
against her was more violent than how she was responding to the other brothers. With Maddox, it
seemed more personal.
“Mom!” they all said in unison, calling her out once again for using such a tone for me.
“I am telling you I was at fault, yet you are targeting her.” Maddox stubbornly stood beside me despite
his mother’s at- tempts to turn him against me.
“Beatrice! You can leave for your room,” Helel then called for me once again.

with me. They knew Sofia would make it difficult for me to sit and eat with them, so he wanted me to
have some snacks in my room.
“Thank you,” I said, trudging towards the exit.
“I cannot believe this,” Lady Sofia grunted at her sons.
“It is like I mean nothing to you all now. You have made your own happy little family with your new
stepmother and stepsister,” she said, sounding hurt. I couldn’t blame her for feeling that way, but it
wasn’t like she and Vasquez were to- gether when my mother started dating him.
“It is not like that. We still love and respect you the same way. It is just that Beatrice is a bit naive and
innocent. Don’t attack her for what her mother had done.” I was shocked when I heard Helel say it to
his mother. It was a huge flip from their side. They used to think of me as this evil person, but now they
all look at me like I am the purest one alive.
“Fine. I will see how much you all love and respect me when I tell you I have found girlfriends for you
all, and I want you all to give them a chance by taking them out on dates.” As soon as Sofia explained
why she had come over, my heart missed a beat inside my chest. I know I have said it many times that
I don’t care about the brothers anymore, but then why did a sad pout form on my lips just at the
mention of them having a girlfriend?
More specifically, I was confused as to which brother among Helel and Maddox I was feeling for.
