Judy’s POV
My heart weighed heavy in my chest as I stared up at Gavin. He had a scowl on his face and he looked like he wanted to punch something at the thought of his sister. Gavin hadn’t told me much about her, but I knew she fell on hard times. She wasn’t like the rest of the Landry’s. She cut ties with them a long time ago though from what I hear; nobody knows what truly happened to Cassandra Landry. She stopped appearing in newspapers and magazines. It was almost like she never existed and everybody kind of just moved on with their lives.
Matthew was only 1 year old when he went to live with Gavin and his family and nobody questioned it. They all assumed he had a kid with someone if they saw glimpses of Matt, but for the most part, Gavin tried hard to keep him out of the limelight because of that.
“Why does she want to see Matthew?” Gavin finally asked as he worked to compose himself.
“Because she’s his mother and she hasn’t seen him in years,” Donna replied, narrowing her eyes at Gavin, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world and she was shocked he would even ask such a thing.
“Matthew barely even knows who she is,” Gavin said, his lip curling up in disgust. “This would disrupt his life and I’m not going to put him through that.”
“Or maybe it won’t,” Donna said with a shrug. “He knows his mother is your sister; he’s a smart kid, Gavin. He knows his mother had fallen on hard times and that she’s working to get better.”
“Is she though?” Gavin asked, folding his arms across his chest. “Because you know I keep regular tabs on her progress and her doctors are saying she’s not willing to work with them. She’s erratic and has manic episodes. I’m not letting Matt get hurt… not again.”
“I visited with her and she was really heartfelt when she spoke about Matthew,” Donna said, a frown marring her lips. “She’s sorry for what she put him through when he was a baby.”
Gavin growled, stopping his mother’s words. She stared at him with wide eyes, shocked that he had the audacity to growl at his own mother.
“I won’t let her have any access to him. He is no longer her son… she signed away all rights and I signed the adoption certificate years ago. He is legally my son, and I know what’s best for him.”
I was surprised by this information; I had no idea that Gavin actually adopted his own nephew, making him not his nephew, but his real son. It made sense; he wouldn't be able to keep the fact that Matthew wasn’t his son a secret if he didn’t have actual proof that he was his son.
Donna opened her mouth to say something more, maybe to argue with him further, or to give up and cut her losses. However, one of the maids entered the parlor and bowed her head to Donna.
“Dinner is being served in the dining hall,” she announced.

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?...
