Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Chapter 0230 Judys POV A … are you serious right now ?? Harper asked , taken aback by Chesters words .

He nodded and sighed .

Yes , Harper .

Im sorry , he murmured , and then he walked past her and back inside .

Harper stood frozen , her face red with anger and hurt all at the same time .

My heart hurt for her ; I knew how much she liked Chester .

I could see it on her face every time that he was around .

I knew how much it hurt for the guy you liked to not want you back… or to give you up so easily .

But I couldnt help but wonder if Nan was okay .

Im sorry … I told Harper , not sur what more to say .

I just dont get it … she whispered , staring down at her feet .

Everything was fine .

Then that girl walked in and … her voice trailed off .

you her ? think they are seeing each other ? I know Chester went on a date the other day .

Could that be I shook my head ; Nan would have told me if she went on a date with a man .

She would have told me all about it .

The fact that she hadnt mentioned it makes me wonder what this story was .

Im not too sure , Harper , I settled on saying .

Harper nodded and sniffed back her tears before she turned her back towards me .

Im just going to go inside .

If you need anything … Ill be in my room , she murmured .

Without another word , she walked into the mansion .

I stared after her for a brief while before I sighed and grabbed my phone out of my pocket .

I glanced at the screen , seeing that I had no .

Missed calls or texts .

Now I was doubt disappointed ; I was upset that Gavin hadnt reached out to me , but I was also upset that Nan hadnt texted me after she left to tell me that she was okay .

I brought up her contact and pressed the phone to my cheek .

It rang several times before I got her voicemail .

Hey , Nan .

Please call me , I said to her voicemail box Im worried about you … I added before I hung up .

Sighing , I walked back inside .

The mansion had gone quiet , and the kitchen was now completely empty .

I knew Chester had turned in for the night .

The food he made for us sat untouched on the counter .

I wasnt very hungry , but I figured I might want it tomorrow , so I put some plastic wrap over the container and stuck it in the fridge .

I also grabbed a sponge and washed down the counters .

I wasnt sure what else Chester and Harper had done here while no one was here earlier , and the thought made me queasy .

After I was done cleaning the kitchen , I retreated to my room .

I was sad that Nan left so suddenly ; I was looking forward to this girls night .

I went into the bathroom , brushed my hair back into a pony , and washed off the leftover makeup from my face .

I grabbed my toothbrush and put some toothpaste on it .

As I brushed my teeth , I let my mind wander for a few It was such a strange and out of ordinary reaction for Nan to have .

I thought about the party and how upset she was .

She hadnt mentioned it since , but she did say something about finding her mate .

My entire movement stopped as I stared at myself in the mirror , the toothbrush hanging from my lips .

Could Chester be Nans mate ? The thought left an unsettled feeling bubble in my belly and my eyes grew impossibly large .

It would make sense given both their reactions to one another .

Did that mean that Chester knew about Nan and yet he still chose to go on a date with another woman … not to mention make out with Harper in the kitchen earlier this evening ? If thats the case , maybe Chester wasnt as harmless as I thought he was .

I spit the water and toothpaste out of my mouth and rinsed the brush off before placing it in its holder .

I grabbed a hand towel and wiped off my lips before putting it back on the rack .

I sighed and leaned against the counter , feeling a wave of dizziness .

This whole thing was getting to my head and I just wanted to get some sleep .

After several deep breaths , I turned away , turned off the bathroom light , and stepped into my room .

It was lonely without Gavin .

I had started to get used to him spending his nights here even if it was out of the ordinary at first .

I checked my phone one last time and saw no missed texts or calls .

I sighed and tried calling Nan again , but I got her voicemail … again .

I put my phone on the charger , placing it on my nightstand before I crawled into bed .

I hated being alone right now … I wished I could reach out to Gavin , but I knew he was busy .

I wished I could get a hold of Nan … but she refused to answer my calls .

I had no idea what was going on , but I hoped that I could figure it out in the morning .

It took a while , but eventually , I was able to drift off to sleep .

When I woke the next morning , I felt restless and a bitnumb .

I grabbed my phone to see if I had a missed call and my heart skipped a beat when I saw a text message from Gavin .

It was sent early this morning .

I bit my lower lip as I opened the message .
