Mated To My Stepbrother-Chapter 65
Mary pov
Despite how anxious and curious I was to find Aria, I decided to act cool and not rush to watch them. I could see they were the Mean Girls and any word I said might be used against me, so I calmly continued to listen to them, but they walked away, making me unaware of what happened.
I covered my mouth in shock, so this was what Aria passed through. I would not blame her if she never got to pick up my caller and saw my messages as I looked at this. She was brushed everywhere, and it seemed like her hair was burnt.
Does this mean that this is what happened to Maya? It was the same thing that happened to Aria. Who could have possibly done something like this? Someone must have taken revenge, but I know it cannot be Jaxon because no matter how badly Jaxon hates Maya, he still would not do anything to her for the day he gets to date her. That is the only thing someone like Jaxon would think about some things about only to sleep with girls all around.
I walked out of the hall immediately and went to the comment section of our school dashboard where the picture was posted, only to see people cussing at Aria. Some were even saying terrible and treacherous things to Aria, claiming that she had sneaked in and beat up Maya, but there were no words from Maya or her alliances like they were silently watching all the comments.
As I scrolled through the comments, I couldn’t find any response from Aria. Disheartened, I was about to log out when I saw Timothy’s comment.
His words left me stunned. How could he say something so terrible about Aria? I quickly took a screenshot, anticipating that he would delete it soon.
Timothy should know that Aria is unable to see the comments. Knowing how clean Aria is, how could he even suggest that she could have been responsible for what happened to Maya? Even if she was coerced into doing it, she would not know how to handle a tough situation.
Timothy was aware of this, yet he remained silent. I felt so betrayed that I immediately logged out and called him. He picked up right away and started to apologize, but I couldn’t hold back my anger. "You’re a terrible friend," I yelled at him, "is that how you talk about Aria? You didn’t even tell me that something happened to her so I could help her out. You just disappeared on me. And where is Jaxon?" I continued to berate Timothy, not giving him a chance to speak. He remained silent, but then I heard a voice that left me in shock - it was Maya’s voice. This couldn’t be happening.
Timothy was with Maya. Was this why he had made that comment? Did this mean that he was no longer supporting Aria?
Not for a minute, but I had just heard Maya’s voice, and from the looks of it, he seemed to be in her house because I could hear her other companion’s voices. He had also noticed I had heard Maya’s voice.
"Aria must not find out about this", he said, but I couldn’t help but chuckle. This was just unbelievable. I could not believe that something like this could happen.
I knew he cared about Aria and loved her so dearly, but that didn’t result in this.
"You’re telling me that Aria must not find out about this. How else will I tell Aria about your deceit if I don’t know where she is?" I said to him as I ended the call, but it wasn’t even up to two seconds before he called me back, I knew if I wanted to find the location of Aria I had to hold my anger and pick up the call.
"What do you want to say to me that I have not already heard," I said to Timothy.
"I thought if I pretended like I was on Maya’s side, then I would know why she was faking such an injury and get back at her. I tried to get to her weak point, but it seemed impossible. That was not what she wanted from me." He muttered to me.
I knew Timothy as someone who was very sincere, and just by listening to his words, I could tell when he was being sincere and when he was lying.
I decided to be a little bit calm. If I wanted to get a good answer from Timothy,
"you should have at least told me you should have let me know that both I and I are females and that we would understand each other. I know that Aria is facing a very critical condition, but you should have at least let me know what was happening and not kept me in the dark, for that, I am angry with you." I began.
"I feel offended, and I feel like you don’t take me as a good friend of Aria. Even though we were the best of friends, you still decided to do this to me."
"No matter how you’re trying to get to a weak point. do not be friendly with Maya because it makes things even worse".I said to Timothy as I tried to hold in tears, recalling how I had tried my best to help Aria, recalling how I had continuously called hospital by the hospital to find her. Still, there was no news, and yet, Timothy could do something like this to her. I am so sorry.
"It was just a kind of situation that I needed to take care of her first before letting you know, and she did not want anyone to find out about it. She felt so ashamed; she did not know how she would face you with what happened to her," Timothy said to me, and that was when I recalled the image of Maya and how the student behind me had said she looked just like the way Aria’s injury was. Was Maya’s hair burnt and does that mean that Aria’s Hair was also burnt down?
