Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 154

Chapter 0154

“I… I apologize,” Taylor said, lowering his gaze. “It was an oversight, and It won’t happen again. I’ll make sure it’s fixed by the end of today.”

“What good does that do me now??” Gavin asked, turning to face him fully, his eyes red with fury. “My son was poisoned, and we have no camera footage showing us who was responsible.”

“I’ll do what I can to investigate,” Taylor assured him “The good news is Matt is alive.”

“If I was a second later-”

“But you weren’t,” Taylor said, stopping his thought process. “You have to think on the positive side.”

Gavin’s back was tense, and he released a shuttering breath that shook his broad shoulders.

“Find out what you can,” Gavin said, after a beat of silence.

“Yes, sir,” Beta Taylor said, nodding. He glanced at me, giving me a wary look before retreating from the room, leaving me alone with a very fuming Gavin.

I wasn’t sure what to say; my entire body was trembling as I watched Gavin pace back and forth like he was on the hunt, and I was his prey. He was looking everywhere but me though and it unsettled me even more. The Gavin I was starting to know was nowhere to be found; now he was just a giant ball of fury, and it left me feeling sick to my stomach.

He finally paused and looked at me, his eyes shining with difference.

“You were careless with my son’s life,” he said through his teeth, his eyes narrowed.

“Gavin-”

“Alpha!” He roared.

I trembled and lowered my gaze.

. “Alpha…” I repeated, my voice coming out with a breathy whisper. “I don’t know what happened. I-”

“What happened was my son was fed peanut butter, and he had an allergic reaction. I trusted you to care. for him and you let me down.”

“No, I-”

“Are you telling me you did!

“Are you telling me you didn’t hand him the sandwich with peanut butter?”

“I’m saying I didn’t know there was peanut butter in it…” I said, tears spilling out of my cheeks.

He scoffed, curling his lips up in disgust and making the knot in my stomach tighten.

“I’m not very hungry,” I murmured.

She sighed and stepped into my room, shutting the door behind her.

“I know you are upset about this move,” she began gently. “But you have to understand, I’m doing what’s best for our family. Once your father is out of prison and we are back on our feet, we can get a new house and move out of the Cash family mansion. I just need you to be a little patent.”

As upset as I was about this move, it was nothing compared to how upset I was because of Gavins‘ distrust in me. I wanted to see Matt in the hospital… I called the hospital the other day and asked if he was awake and able to have visitors, but as soon as I gave them my name, they told me I wasn’t allowed to visit him and to not call again, right before they hung up on me.

Gavin won’t take any of my calls and Irene blocked my number completely. I was so lost… and I wasn’t sure what I was going to do.

“Come on, sweetie,” my mom said, putting her hand on my back. “Let’s get some food and then we can discuss what our lives will look like in the upcoming weeks.”

I knew what our lives were going to look like… they were going to look like hell.
