Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 485

“It was worth a shot,” I sighed.

His shoulders shook with suppressed laughter.

Taylor pulled into the driveway and put the car in park before turning to look at me.

“I know it’s hard to see, but the Alpha truly does care about you, Miss Judy,” he tells me gently, his eyes softening. “He’s not great at expressing his feelings… he never has been. But he does the best he can. Cut him some slack.”

My heart was heavy in my chest as I thought about what he was saying. I found myself nodding and nibbling on my lower lip.

“When can I expect my car?” I asked, not wanting to talk about it anymore.

“Give me a few hours,” he told me. “I’ll have it sent here soon.”

I nodded as I got out of the car, slamming the door shut behind me. Taylor didn’t leave until I was securely in the house, which I found to be odder than usual. I wondered if Gavin ordered him not to stay outside the house until I was inside.

I seriously didn’t understand what was happening, but I pushed it aside so I could have a normal family dinner with my parents.

I told my mom what had happened with Sammy at the mansion, and she was shocked to say the least. My father agreed that it was best if I stayed away from them for a while. He didn’t want more trouble for the Montague family, and that’s what it seemed like was happening… trouble.

It took a couple of hours, but soon, Gamma Eric was bringing me my car, and another Gamma was picking him up. My mom, in her motherly fashion, while he waited for the other Gamma to arrive, kept offering him food, but he politely declined, saying he was planning on going out later that evening for food.

“A date?” I asked when my mother finally went inside.

We were sitting on the porch; having Eric being my main driver over the course of the year, we became friends of a sort.

He grinned.

“Maybe,” he said. “Guess we will see how it goes.”

His ride appears, and he nudges my shoulder.

“It’s no problem,” I told him. “I didn’t want to make a fuss out of it. I can grab it. I left it upstairs.”

Thankfully, he didn’t argue with me. He let me go upstairs, and I pretended to walk towards Gavin’s room, where I had been staying these last couple of weeks, but instead, I headed towards the guest wing. I picked up Sammy’s scent right away; I had always been good at picking up on scent, so it didn’t take long to find her room.

I knocked on her door, thankful there weren’t any guards outside of it. When she opened the door, I was even more relieved that it wasn’t locked, but I saw an ankle monitor on her leg, making me frown.

“What is that?” I asked her, stepping into her room.

“I can’t leave this room, or Alpha Gavin will be alerted. He also took my phone,” she murmured, shutting the door.

She looked drained and defeated; despite everything, I still felt bad that she was going through this. There had to be an actual explanation for all of this. There was no way she was lying from the very beginning.

Then Sammy asked, “What are you even doing here?”
