Chapter 118

She was always marking her territory, constantly playing little games to make the four brothers choose between her and Miranda. Unsurprisingly, they always picked Arabella.

Miranda was perpetually the one ignored and cast aside, all to satisfy Arabella's vanity and secure her position within the Hawke family.

Miranda's response made Lysander's expression flicker slightly. Arabella frowned too, but she wasn't worried.

She was confident that even if Miranda claimed the Hawke brothers as her own, they would never acknowledge it for her sake. Miranda was, in her eyes, a slut, someone the brothers would throw under the bus if it meant saving Arabella. They definitely wouldn't recognize her.

At that moment, the three other Hawke brothers, watching from behind the scenes, were all subtly focused on the situation. There was even a hint of hidden anticipation.

Since Miranda's release from jail, she hadn't once acknowledged any relationship with them. Her disdain and resentment infuriated them, especially since she refused to recognize them, yet called Caius her brother.

Though they didn't want to admit it, they were undeniably jealous. So when Miranda answered, they were keenly interested in what she'd say.

Dorian spoke with a casual drawl, "If she names us, then maybe she still considers herself part of the Hawke family. If she still sees herself as our sister, I might just forgive the impact she's had on Bella. Worst case, we can reveal the truth about the real and fake heiress situation and bring her back." Alistair nodded in agreement. "Just have her apologize to Bella, and we're good."

Orion frowned. "If she's willing to admit her mistakes and return to the Hawke family, I'm also fine with revealing their identities. Though it might cause Bella some distress."

They hadn't even noticed how, over time, their favoritism towards Arabella wasn't as strong as it once was.
