“You should have seen the look on my ex’s face when I told him I was leaving,” Sammy said, shaking her head after her second glass of wine. “I thought he was going to start crying.”
“Has he tried calling you?” Nan asked.
Sammy shrugged.
“I blocked his number so who knows.”
We all chuckled.
“What about you, Nan?” I asked her curiously. “How’s you and Chester ever since your first date disaster?”
She smiled, a small blush creeping along her nose and cheeks.
“We’ve been good these last couple of days,” she admitted, nibbling on her lower lip. “He’s been really great… tentative. I haven’t seen him flirting with anyone… I think this could actually work.”
I felt relieved hearing her say that; I knew Chester could man up and get his head out of his ass if he really wanted to.
“I’m glad to hear that,” I tell her, resting my head on her shoulder as I grab another mozzarella stick off the plate. “You two are going to make beautiful food together,” I tease, a little wine tipsy.”
She chuckled, taking another long sip of her wine before pouring another glassful.
“Yeah, I think so too. He wants to help me with my cooking endeavor,” she explains. “Which is awesome. I never had anyone who wanted to help me like that before. But Chester is different. He’s been through all this already, so he knows what needs to be done.”
I nodded.
“He’s your fated mate; he was made for you. Chosen by the Moon Goddess for you… it’s supposed to be a match made in heaven,” Sammy said thoughtfully.
My heart twisted at her words; as much as I wanted to believe that what she was saying was true, part of me didn’t believe in the concept of fated mates anymore. Not since Ethan came into my life and then destroyed my vision of happily ever after. He was my fated mate; the one the moon Goddess had chosen for me. He was supposed to be my match made in my heaven, but it turned out he was just a manipulative asshole who only cared about himself. He wasn’t my perfect match… he was someone I wished I never met.
“I’m surprised you didn’t invite Irene to this girl’s night,” Nan said with a frown.
I thought about inviting her, but I knew she had her own shit to deal with, and plus, our relationship was a little weird right now. I wasn’t sure where we stood with our friendship. We hadn’t really talked since coming back from the competition and I wasn’t sure if the bond we shared while in a different country was even real.
“Maybe next time,” I settled on saying as I took another long sip of my wine before pouring myself another glass.
“So, what’s going on with you and Gavin?” Sammy finally boldly asked, her eyes narrowed at me.
My cheeks flushed at her words.
“He can hook up with whoever he wants,” I told her.
Nan and Sammy exchanged knowing looks.
Soon, the front door opened, turning our attention in that direction. My heart dropped when I saw Harper staggering into the room.
It’s obvious she’s been drinking.
Her things were all still there and though Taylor had packed her things up already, she hadn’t come to collect her things. I’m assuming that’s why she was here, but her being drunk was questionable.
“Harper, what are you doing here at this hour?” I asked, glancing at the clock. It was 11 pm at this point.
She pauses when she sees us sitting on the couch and then her eyes narrow at Nan, a scowl clear on her lips.
“You fucking home-wrecking bitch. You are going to pay for this,” she growled and then before I could react, she was lunging at Nan.

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
This story is all over the place. i'm trying my best to keep going because he would be so good The writer and editor communicated at least a little. (Yes I understand its 1 maybe 2 people writing and tending to the story) However, everyone needs to be on the same page. The characters names continue to change: Rachel at first then her name changed to Rebecca, Ethans sister name is now jenna. some times they talk in 3rd person which I'm sure is a accident when its in that characters POV. How did we do a time jump 5 years making Matt 13 with Judy's son being 5 years old but when we get to the Blackwell story line he's nine again and she's still pregnant using her time with matt to gain experience with her son. What happened to the time jump....
Is it just me, or do they add chapters daily for one week then leave you in suspense for a week before they start posting again? The book is amazing, but it's frustrating being in such high excitement and thrill then being left with your mind boggling....
Thank you for continuing to write this story! Trying to be grateful for the recent 2 small chapters a day, however due to enjoying it so much, wish they were more and longer....
Could the author please get the names correct…CHESTER is Nan’s mate —NOT Chuck. I don’t know who is writing these chapters, but I do not think it is the original author. Considering the original author has quite a few ongoing stories, she must have handed this one off to someone else. Very disappointing!...
Has the author forgot her own story? Didn't lila/Racheal date gavin when he first got Mathew? Meaning that she's the same or similar age as gavin! Now it's changed that she's born on the same day as Judy......
This book has gone off the rails. First there was a Five Years Later chapter where everyone had kids and Irene was marked and pregnant by Chuck and now they're not mated and Chuck is a slime ball. Make it make sense....
I don't understand thus story. Didn't she just win 5 million in the gamma games? Why is she living with people and not in her own place?...
No updates/new chapters since 10/14/2025???? This is so frustrating for those of us who have followed this book/author from the beginning! So disappointing!...
Why no updates posted since 9/20/25????...
Well that.....sucked. That can't seriously be the ending? Tf?...
