Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 507

Judy’s POV

My entire body was frigid as I heard what this woman…a woman I had never even heard of before, saying that Gavin was in the shower. My entire body shook, and I could feel my heart shattering in my chest. I barely registered her words next because I was so numb from the inside out.

My hearing had faded, and all that was left was just me inside the little bubble I created around myself.

I pressed the “end call” button as she was speaking and I shoved my phone back into my pocket, not wanting to hear what more she had to say.

I’m not sure how I ended up outside of the student lounge; my body was working on overdrive, and I wasn’t in control anymore. I felt paralyzed as the world passed around me, swallowing me into a black abyss. I didn’t realize where I was until I heard Nan’s voice from beside me.

“Judy, what’s wrong?” She asked, studying my pale face.

I looked at her… really looked at her. I saw the worry lingering in her eyes and the way the corner of her lip tipped down into a concerned frown. Her brows were pinched together as she stared at me, the question lingering on her lips as I thought about what to say to her.

I felt so stupid; here I was, thinking this guy might actually like me… thinking he had developed genuine feelings for me as I had him… but instead he was off with another woman, playing house with her… letting her answer his phone… taking her on dates…ignoring me and wondering what it was I did wrong.

I didn’t realize that I was crying until Nan wrapped me in her arms and pulled me into a tight hug.

“It’s okay,” she whispered, but I didn’t feel like things were okay. I felt like I was breaking apart, and there was nobody around to pick up the pieces. My wolf was whimpering and howling inside of me, feeling and feeding off my pain, matching it with her own. “Tell me what happened, Judy. Please… I hate seeing you like this.”

“I called Gavin…” I heard myself whisper. “And another woman answered.”

She let out a breath and closed her eyes as she continued to hug me.

“That asshole,” she whispered. “He doesn’t deserve you if that’s how he’s going to treat you. Just because he’s a Lycan, he thinks he can play with your emotions. It’s not fair.”

At that point, my phone chimed. I pulled out of her arms and glanced at my phone, sighing.

“Who is it?” She asked, eyeing me carefully.

“Beta Taylor is here to pick me up,” I muttered.

‘Not Erik?” She asked with raised brows.

“Does he have any new business partners or someone working with him on the project?” I asked,

He was quiet for a long while; his jaw was ticking, and he clenched and unclenched it. He finally glanced at me through the mirror.

“That’s not for me to say,” he admitted, his voice coming out softer than I thought it would. “It’s probably better if you spoke to him directly.”

“I would if he’d talk to me,” I muttered.

Beta Taylor looked as if he was about to say something else, but before he could, my phone started to ring. Aggravated by the interruption, I huffed as I pulled my phone out of my pocket. I saw Irene’s name on the screen and big my lips as I answered the call.

“Hello?”

“Judy! I need your help,” Irene practically shouted into the phone. “It’s Emalyn… she’s sick. She won’t stop crying. Please hurry!”

She hung up without another word, leaving my stomach in knots. I looked at Taylor, who was still focused on the road, his mind a thousand miles away.
