Chapter 53. Jealousy and Advice

Lillian’s POV

I was leaving the lounge when I came across Arsenio and Aldrich. They looked surprised, staring at me and the bouquet I had tossed into the trash.

They must have been surprised by Heckim’s proposal to me.

No one knows that we were mates. I haven’t even told Mom about it, that the Betas were my fated mates.

“Did you see all that?” I asked, rubbing the nape of my neck.

They nodded, and our voices had been a bit too loud for them not to hear what we said.

Aldrich hummed. “I was surprised by Heckim’s proposal. I didn’t think he would come here to do that.”

“I was surprised as well. We were both surprised.” Arsenio sputtered a bit, pointed a finger at his brother, then at himself. “We were just surprised.”
