Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates - Chapter 110

Chapter 110: 110-They Found It

Helanie:

“Ugh! Where has everyone come from? The fucking woods or what?” she continued to scream, while her sister was cussing out too.

“Sydney! Settle down, you are not the class monitor,” Emmet cleared his throat to step up, causing the screaming twins to shut up and obediently tie their hands behind their backs.

“Prof Emmet, I think it’s time we chose a monitor, or two—,” Sydney suggested with a smile on her lips as she looked at her sister.

The two were so full of themselves.

“Why would we need two?” Emmet stood before them, tilting his head.

While Sydney was talking to Emmet, I saw Salem staring right at his gray shorts. And not just at his shorts; I could tell exactly where her eyes were. His bulge was noticeable, even though I could tell he was wearing underwear and wasn’t even excited. But that was enough to excite Salem. She even stared at the Calvin Klein underwear showing when he lifted his hands to gesture for everyone to gather in one spot.

“These are all here for big missions, so they need full attention,” Sydney didn’t want to outright admit that the two sisters wanted the same position.

“Okay then—I will choose the class monitors myself. You don’t need to tire yourself out,” he spoke roughly to her before turning to the class.

“You see this picture here? It’s a very well-known herb used for healing. I will make four teams, and whichever two teams find the most of these in the next two hours will choose one member from their team to be the class monitor,” Emmet shocked us when he introduced our first task.

It was quite windy here, so I was more focused on my health than any of the tasks. I didn’t want to be the class monitor either, so I wasn’t really bothered.

“Team A shall have Lucy, Gavin, Jenny, Penn, Roi, Mirret, and Helanie,” he finished and stared at me before moving on to Team B.

“Team B, Sydney, Salem—Lamar—” I didn’t hear the rest because Lucy came close to me and whispered in my ear.

“The devils are paired together. At least it means only one monitor will be from their team.”

She was right. Both the sisters being class monitors would have been the deadliest combination for all of our peace.

“Now come, get started,” he clapped his hands after giving us a paper with a drawing of the herb.

Emmet started wandering around while we began to look for the herb with tiny yellow leaves on top of a round green stigma.

“We have to make sure we have the most of these herbs,” Lucy kept yammering while looking for the herbs. She was also constantly reminding everyone that we needed to win so that one of the class monitors would be from our team.

We found a decent amount, and then we had to walk into the deeper part of the mountains, among the trees.

I watched Salem and Sydney go crazy too.

However, Lamar was everywhere. One second, he was next to us, and the next minute, he was far away. I could tell his basket was full of herbs too. He was really good at it, but I wondered if he wanted to become the class monitor or if he was doing this to make Sydney or Salem the class monitor.

We continued our search before I heard some commotion.

There were girls gathered around one spot, laughing a lot. Since Jenny was kept close to her brother due to Lucy’s hostile behavior towards us, it was just the three of us looking for herbs together.

Gavin was helpful, but he had been very distant and silent, as if he wasn’t entirely here.

“What are they laughing at now?” Lucy commented with a taunting tone.

“Let them be. Let’s focus on—,” I started to say, but I only tapped her arm to make her turn around and come with me when I heard Sydney make a comment that made me feel a little weird.

“Imagine the life of a single mother.”

The hair on the back of my neck stood up, and I turned to look at them. They weren’t looking my way, but they were constantly laughing over something.

“We have only five minutes. Let’s go back to the spot and meet up with our other teammates,” Lucy brought me back to reality. I nodded and followed her, still wondering why Sydney made that comment. It just sounded too personal.

We made it to the ground where Emmet had been waiting for us, and everyone stood in groups.

Sydney’s team arrived late, and they still seemed to be laughing their asses off for some reason.

Emmet had been doing push-ups and other workouts while waiting. So, when everyone arrived, his muscles were pretty pumped up. The cuts in his shoulders were crazy, and I couldn’t help but notice his hard abs when his shirt blew up a little from the wind.

But there was a frown on his forehead that I could tell came from the way Sydney’s team was laughing.

“Sorry, sir. Actually, we found something that made us giggle a little,” Sydney quickly explained after noticing Emmet’s harsh glare.

“What did you find?” Emmet asked with a bored expression and tone, knowing she wouldn’t stop until someone asked her.

“We found out that someone’s pregnant.” My heart skipped a beat, and everything around me turned cold when Sydney said that.

For a moment, I thought everyone was looking at me. My body began to feel cold, and my ears were ringing with a beeping noise.

I felt like I was going to collapse from fear and embarrassment.

“Huh?” Emmet scoffed loudly to get everyone’s attention back on him.

I noticed how everyone was laughing in the corners of their mouths. Was it really that funny?

I lowered my head and closed my eyes, my arms wrapped around my belly while she added, “We found a pregnancy test.”
