Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 709

Judy’s POV

My mouth nearly fell open at Gavin’s remark.

“Lila?” I asked, my brows furrowed. I wasn’t understanding what was happening, but all I knew was that Rebecca was standing in front of us, and she looked… different.

Her typical brown hair was no longer brown but blonde with pink streaks at the ends, entwining with curls that weren’t there before. Her features were all the same; she had the same brown eyes with long lashes and the same high cheekbones and rosy lips, only her makeup was a little different. Actually… it was the makeup that was different in general. Before, she didn’t wear any makeup, but now, it seemed she had a whole face full of it.

Like me, she wore a dress that hugged her figure and really brought out the size of her breasts, only I felt like she wore it better. She had her hands on her hips as she stared at me; the gaze turning into daggers that pierced my very soul. I was suddenly very uncomfortable being near her.

This was a woman who made me believe that she was sleeping with Gavin, having his baby, and about to get married to him. It was all a plan to get rid of me… Gavin caught on pretty quickly and spent way too much time tricking her into believing he was trustworthy while gathering information. During that time, I thought they were together, and I ran off to the Redcliff Pack.

I didn’t know it at the time, but it was all Levi’s plan to get rid of me… for what? I wasn’t sure. Maybe a distraction? Maybe to hurt Gavin? Maybe both? The thought sent a chill down my spine.

I thought Gavin had her on lockdown; she was supposed to be in a holding cell so they could decide on a proper punishment for her. Had they let her go free? I wanted to ask Gavin, but my mouth wouldn’t work, and my entire body felt rooted to the ground.

“Don’t pretend you aren’t happy to see me, Gavin,” Lila said as she batted her eyelashes up at him. “I know we had some tough times, but at the end of the day, it’ll always be me you want, and you can’t deny that.”

“I didn’t actually know anything real about you… So how could you say that I want you?” Gavin said flatly. “I didn’t even know your real name until recently. You led me to believe that your name was Rebecca this entire time.”

She swatted away his concern.

“Only because I wasn’t sure if I could trust you,” she said, lifting her shoulders. “But not everything was a lie…”

She reached out to touch his arm, and without warning, I grabbed her wrist, a snarl leaving my lips.

“Don’t touch my mate,” I hissed, my voice coming out primal.

He smiled down at her.

“No, I did not,” he told her before focusing his attention on Gavin and me. “I see you are joining us for the auction this evening. It should be an interesting event.”

“Yes, it should be,” Gavin replied simply. “I’m surprised that you came all this way for just an auction. Surely you have them closer to your own territory as well, no?”

“We do, yes,” Levi replied. “But this one has a particular item I’ve had my eye on for some time, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.”

Gavin’s jaw clenched.

“I guess I should wish you luck then,” Gavin said, his eyes never leaving Levi’s. I wasn’t sure what was happening or what Gavin’s plan was, but I had a strange feeling; a knot formed in the pit of my stomach.

Without warning, Gavin was guiding me away. We sat in our seats, his hand clasped in mine, and at that moment, I realized I was trembling. Whether it was from rage after our encounter with Lila, or nerves. Either or… I couldn’t seem to stop shaking.
