Mated To My Stepbrother-Chapter 39

Aria pov

Just as I was about to speak up for both of them, Jaxon beat me to it by speaking up.

"You should shut up, Maya, and stop saying things you know nothing about. If you don’t know something, then hold your mouth."Jaxon warned Maya, and she kept silent and stepped back.

"I was not saying something I didn’t know. I was saying exactly what I know, and you now are trying to prove me right." Maya said while Tim just stood there, unable to say anything.

Maya noticed my attention was on Tim, and then she turned her attention to him. "You can even see Tim, speechless, staring at Aria, which shows how in love he is with her," Maya said to Jaxon, who turned to Tim and aggressively dragged him with his collar as they both gave each other a death glance.

"You said leave while I am nicely begging you to leave," Jaxon said to Tim angrily, but Tim did not seem moved and just stood there. He didn’t even bother dragging Jaxon’s collar, but I could see he was provoked because his hand’s nylon seemed to have ruffled due to how tightly he squeezed it.

He stared at me for a few seconds and then back at Jaxon. I tried to stand up, but I could not understand why I felt so paralyzed since Maya entered. I felt like I could not move. Even though it was my head that felt all the pain, my body still felt like I was being paralyzed.

Tim pushed Jaxon away as Jaxon staggered a bit, then angrily slammed the thing on his hand and turned to me.

"You wanted Jaxon to come back, right? Have fun with him," Tim said and stormed out.

I felt so bad as Tim left because I did not want him to leave. Tim had been the only person to stand by me, and now he was leaving so easily.

I felt so pained but decided to keep quiet, for I could not stop him. Not that I wanted Jaxon to leave either. I did not want both of them to leave. If anyone could ask me what my opinion was, it would be that Maya and her friend should just get the **** out. Still, it seemed that as the team left, Jaxon became a bit calmer as he picked up the things Tim had bought and began to open them up. As he adjusted the table for me to sit down and place the dish right there,

"You need to eat for you need the strength to face what I am about to tell you," Jaxon said to me.

I felt reassured by Jaxon’s words, but turning back to Maya and her friend, who were still staring at us. I felt uncomfortable, and immediately Jaxon understood and turned to the mire.

He stood up quickly and went towards the door as he opened it widely. Maya and her friends could understand that he was chasing her out, and she just smiled before silently walking out.

I felt like she would make life a living hell for me again by walking out so silently, but I still thanked Jaxon for standing up for me again without him and Tim.

I don’t know what would have happened to me. I think I would have almost killed myself out of embarrassment for what happened to me. Jaxon closed the door and crossed checked again before working towards me. As he sat beside me, he noticed I had not touched the fool as he stared at me.

"Sadly, you need to eat it if you need to be strong. I know that Maya has a hand in this, but you know the kind of person Maya is. We cannot just point fingers at her till we have proof, and there is no proof and something else." Jaxon said as he hesitated at the last part.

I felt so anxious and scared simultaneously, but I wanted to know what Jaxon had to say.

"Talk to me Jaxon tell me what I said to him".

He seemed sad but boldly faced me, "the doctor. I went to see the doctor a few minutes ago before coming in, and the doctor told me that my hair had been damaged badly. Your scalp has been wounded badly, and he needs to treat it but to treat it, you need to cut down your hair", Jaxon said to me.

I felt so scared that I mentally healed my hair in my hand as I gripped the head tightly. I wasn’t going to let go of my hair. Yes, I knew it was damaged, and I imagined I would have to cut it, but no matter how many times I pinched myself, it was still not a dream and was a reality. I still had to cut the hair off.

I turned to him with an awkward face. "Why don’t you tell the doctor to find another way? I cannot give up my hair so easily." I said to Jaxon who moved closer to me and he hugged me tightly.

"I know you cannot do that. I pleaded with him for other ways, but he told me that was the only way that he needed to treat my scalp if I ever wanted another hair to grow from it."He muttered to me, and I couldn’t help but began to cry.

Even though Jaxon Woods was trying to sound encouraging, he still could not understand how broken I was to hear this from him. I was not going to easily give up on the only thing I love the most in my body so easily. Jaxon continued to caress my back as I couldn’t help but continue to cry. This was all Maya’s fault. I wish I could get back at her. All I wanted at this stage was nothing but revenge.

I knew Jaxon wanted an answer for me, so I decided to speak up finally. "I will cut the hair."
