Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 351

Judy’s POV

Sammy and I went through the front foyer of the resort, where she saw Tyler dragging Nan. My heart was pounding against my rib cage at the thought of something happening to her. I never trusted Tyler, and I should have tried harder to get her to cut ties with him, but I stupidly didn’t listen to my intuition.

My sense of urgency to get to my best friend was real. The sun hadn’t set yet, so at least there was enough daylight where it would be easy to spot them. I just hoped it wasn’t too late when we got there.

“That stupid bitch,” I heard a familiar voice saying as soon as we got outside.

I glanced at Sammy, and we both had identical frowns marring our faces. We looked around, trying to find the source of the voice.

“I can’t believe she had the audacity to leave you.”

“And look at your face,” another familiar voice said. “We should seriously sue them for this.”

“Just forget it,” a male voice growled, anger evident in his tone. “I won’t let either of them get away with this.”

I think I knew those voices well, and if I was right, then I’ll find out where Nan is.

When I rounded the corner, I paused when I saw Mac, Kelsey, and Tyler.

Tyler was badly beaten to the point where I barely recognized him. Though it was evident that his wolf was healing him as they spoke. Kelsey was still applying bandages and cream to his face, though, while Mac paced back and forth, furious.

Mac was actually the one who saw me first, and her eyes narrowed, a deadly look in them.

“Are you here to finish the job?” She spat. “Hadn’t my cousin gone through enough?”

“Not sure,” I shot back, my eyes locked on Tyler’s swollen gaze. “Has he?”

I wasn’t sure what he did, but something in me was saying he deserved it.

“Your bitch of a friend got someone to beat the shit out of him,” Kelsey hissed, her eyes red with fury, much like Mac’s eyes. “Who’s going to pay for his medical expenses? We should seriously sue.”

“My friend?” I asked, letting out a breath. “Are you talking about Nan?”

“Who else?” Kelsey growled.

My heart fell into my stomach; something happened with Nan.

“What did he do to her?” I asked, my tone growing deep and with a hint of deadliness in it.

“Nothing,” Tyler spat, clearly lying.

“Better than the stuffy hotel suite,” Nan said softly.

I inched closer, trying to get a read on the guy’s voice. I motioned for Sammy to keep quiet, and she nodded, also intrigued.

“It wasn’t stuffy, but fresh air was a good idea. The conversation got heavy, and I was having trouble breathing.”

Nan let out a breathy laugh but swallowed it almost immediately.

“Yeah,” she breathed. “I was also having trouble breathing.”

The small talk was awkward and didn’t come easily to them. I’m assuming that the man was the one who beat Tyler till he barely looked like himself.

I wondered what could have provoked that, but then I heard the guy laugh lightly as he said, “In a way, I’m glad I ran into you when I did for two reasons. One, that guy was a jerk, and who knows what he would have done if I hadn’t shown up… and two, I wasn’t sure where I was going to stay if I didn’t find either you or Judy.”

“Wait…” I said loud enough to interrupt their conversation just as Nan let out another soft laugh. Sammy looked at me with wide eyes as I marched around the corner, my hands on my hips. “Chester??”

Chester and Nan sat on the crystal fountain in the middle of the resort garden, their eyes wide when they saw me. Chester had Nan’s hand in his, and he was playing with her fingers absentmindedly.

I hadn’t spoken to Chester since we arrived last week; though I didn’t think he would, I was almost hoping he would appear and try to get Nan back.
