The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 896

Beryl's BOV:

I peeled my eyes open and pushed Arron next to me as soon as the door closed.

Arron didn't move, as if he had really fallen asleep, but his frowned eyebrows sold him out.

"Come on. I know you are awake." I reached out my hand and pinched his frowned eyebrows. I found it amusing how terrible he was at pretending to be asleep.

Arron kept his eyes closed and helplessly replied, "Listen to Mommy. Go to sleep."

"But Mommy is going to leave without you." I leaned close to his ear and blew on it haughtily.

Instantly, Aaron sat up and opened his eyes. With a scowl on his face, he looked at me and said, "That can't be true. Mommy said she would take us with her wherever she went."

I curled my lips and felt very unhappy, "That's a lie older people say to kids like us, and you believe that."

Arron didn't give a response. He was fiddling with the quilt's tassels, looking quite gloomy.

"Did you see when Mommy was talking about camping just now? Her eyes were fluttering and she nervously caressed the pulps of her fingers. She was obviously nervous. This is what she always did when she wanted to trick us. And she was way too happy when we agreed. Don't tell me you didn't notice." I crossed my arms on my chest and looked at my stupid brother.

Arron pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Obviously, he too noticed that something was off. But he was hesitating about being a good child or being a needy brat.

What a stupid brother.

I heaved a sigh, pointed at Arron, and added, cheekily, "I can tell you a little secret, but you have to help me finish the corn at breakfast tomorrow."

I'd always hated corns and when I saw it written in the menu for tomorrow's breakfast, I couldn't help but grimace. To avoid making Mommy think I was a picky eater, I had to ask my brother for help.
