Chapter 355
Maynard’s POV:
“I think they are tired. They should go rest.” Mom was quick enough to dismiss us. Usually, she would not leave
anyone alone until she dragged out a comment and made it a huge issue, but this time, she really didn’t want to
speak.
“No! I rested a lot. I am finally feeling much more relaxed and comfortable.” I shook my head as I refused to stay
silent for another minute.
“What is going on? Did I miss something?” Dad laughed nervously, looking between mom and me.
“Why don’t you ask your beloved mate about it?” That was it. It was a moment of truth. She looked my way and
then gulped nervously. Her body was visibly shuddering as she played with her fingers.
“I don’t know what is going on. I was so happily waiting for his arrival, and this is how he is treating me in front of
his mate,” she scowled, hugging herself and rubbing her arms to look like a victim.
“Maynard, say sorry to your mother and make amends. You are going to start anew with your mate. It is not
healthy to argue and ruin things with your mother.” Dad being unaware of all the horrible things mom had put his
son through, advised me.
“I think it is her time to start apologizing for her sins,” | commented, my eyes resting on my mom’s face, and my

turned to look at her in shock.
“What sins? What is he talking about?” dad asked, and she shrugged anxiously, pretending to be clueless.
“I will just go to my room since my son doesn’t want me here,” she tried to get up, but when I stretched my feet
and slammed them on the table, she sat down instantly.
“What is this behavior? You are scaring your mother.” Dad side-hugged her, and she hid her face in his chest.
“She is not what she looks like. She is the evil mother who ruined my whole life until I killed Geralt.” I was no longer
going to hide the truth. I have come back with the mindset of exposing everything to Dad.
“Hush!” Dad yelled. I know somewhere he knew I had killed Geralt hence why he waited to send me to the
academy, but he didn’t know why I had done that.
“There is no need to hide the truth from anyone anymore. Because I didn’t kill him out of jealousy. I killed him
because of her.” I pointed at my mom, and my father unwrapped his arm
from around her shoulder.
“What are you saying?” dad questioned me, his eyes staring at my mom.
“I don’t know what had gotten into him, but that is not true.” She knew it was over for her. I wonder how long she
thought she would be able to control me and keep her dirty sins hidden.
“Really? Then why don’t you tell Dad why I used to be scared
of my own shadow? Why growing up I was so weak that I could barely walk.” I was yelling now. Recalling my
childhood was just so painful.
There were days when I thought I wouldn’t wake up because of how much blood my brother drank from me. But
she didn’t care. She was happily watching Geralt grow and become stronger.
“What does he mean by that? I want answers right now,” Dad got up from the couch and yelled at mom, who was
shaking her head and rubbing her hands on her face in agitation.
“I am sorry!” she cried. “I didn’t have much choice.” She continued, and my dad’s jaw hung low. I bet he never
thought he was living with such a vile person.
“You hurt our son?” Dad gasped.
“She gave birth to me only so that she can save Geralt, dad;” || expressed my sadness over the fact that I wasn’t
even needed. I came into this world for the purpose of saving my brother and bearing the pain.
“I — I had no other choice. You were drifting away from me. In order to save our marriage, I had to give you an
heir. So when I gave birth to Geralt, you were back to loving me. But then he fell sick, and I realized the moment he
died, you would leave me. So I planned to get pregnant and use that other child to—- save Geralt. Somewhere deep
down, I saw Geralt as the child who saved my marriage. He was dear to me, more than —Maynard,”She said the
truth for the first time, and it felt like she stabbed me in the chest repeatedly.
“And I had no clue—,” Dad was shaking as he realized how

“But now I love Maynard.” She got up on her feet to convince her that her love for me has grown after Geralt died,
but wasn’t ready to take her lies anymore.
“Because I am the one who saved your marriage again. You never really loved anyone. Your love for this crown and
status made you commit all these crimes. I don’t understand how someone can be so heartless. Looking at me, you
are like the worst punishment ever.” I got out of my seat the instant | watched her run over to me and sit on my
feet.
“Since there is nothing left to say. I, the alpha of the pack, decide the punishment of imprisonment for the rest of
your life,” l announced, and a gasp heaved across her lips.
She rushed over to Christina this time, sitting on her feet and holding her hands. “Please, you tell him to forgive me.
I will not do anything wrong again. I have learned my lesson,” she was begging before the girl she had been bullying
ever since
she came to the pack.
“So now you are going to beg before her? Where did your hatred for her go?” | knew she wouldn’t ever learn, and
honestly, I didn’t want to give her another chance. She made me hate my brother and even helped him grow like a
monster.
Her fate was done and sealed.
