Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 231

Chapter 0231

Gavin: Sorry I couldn’t come over last night. I’d like to see you tonight though. Dinner tonight?

I couldn’t help the smile that lit up my face. I pressed the reply button and typed out my own message.

Me: That sounds great!

I pressed send and then I quickly got out of bed. I didn’t bother changing out of my pajamas as I left my room and went down the stairs and towards the kitchen. My stomach was growling considering I hadn’t eaten last night. I hoped Chester was well enough to cook breakfast; if not, I guess I’ll just have to cook it myself.

I was honestly surprised when I saw him hard at work in the kitchen. There was no one else with him though. I glanced around the kitchen, wondering where the kitchen adds were but when I didn’t see them, my eyes found Chester’s. He had paused his movements behind the counter, and I could see that he was contemplating asking me something, but then he changed his mind and turned his attention back to what he was doing.

“Where is everybody?” I asked as I walked towards the breakfast nook and took a seat.

“I told them I wanted some space today and to take the day off,” he told me, without even glancing in my direction.

I watched him as he moved effortlessly around the kitchen

“Is everything okay?” I asked, raising my brows at him.

He finished plating the food and then he slid it across the counter and in my direction. He was quiet as he walked over to the coffee pot and started to pour some into a mug for me. At first, I didn’t think he was going to answer my question. But then he brought me the coffee, along with the sweeteners and cream, and he leaned against the counter, looking defeated.

“Can I ask you a question?” He asked.

I nodded and started to sweeten my coffee and poor cream into the black elixir.

“Of course,” I answered.

I was honestly just glad that someone was at least talking to me. I would answer any question he had for me at this point.

“You’re 20, right?” he asked.

I glanced up at him and nodded.

“Yes,” I answered. “Why?”

“Usually, people find their mates at the age of 18,” he murmured.

I held up my hand to stop him.

“That’s a myth,” I told him. “You can find your mate at any stage of life. It doesn’t have ot be at 18.”

“How old is too old?”

I furrowed my brows.

“I don’t believe there is such a thing as too old,” I told him

“But 35?” He asked.

“What?”

“I found my mate,” I told him. “When I was 18. I had known him for a long time prior and admittedly, I’ve always had a little crush on him throughout our childhood. We are from the same pack… so we were always around each other. When I turned 18 we discovered that we were mates and then he marked me almost right away.

I brushed the hair away from my neck to show him my mark and he gasped when he saw.

“You’ve been marked?” He asked, his eyes wide with horror.

I nodded and sighed.

H

“Yes,” I replied out loud. I stared down at my plate, a wave of sadness washing over me.“We were supposed to get married.”

“So, why didn’t you?” He asked. “What happened?”

1 bit my lower lip, remaining quiet for a moment, and then looked up at him.

“He left me for Gavn’s daughter. ”
