I blinked, surprised at her candid words.
“Who are you to talk? You’ve been wallowing around all week, and you aren’t even wearing any makeup,” I shot back, folding my own arms across my chest.
She let out a short laugh, though the smile she had on her face didn’t meet her eyes, and it made my chest tighten even more. I knew she was trying to distract herself and get her own thoughts and feelings in check… but I also knew she was living with this intense pain, and she couldn’t get rid of it. I hated that it was happening to her, and I wished that I could make it better.
“Unlike you, I’ve already built a stable foundation for myself. I can afford to take a week or more off,” she told me, shrugging one shoulder. “Once you are known and loved around the world, then come talk to me about constantly wearing makeup.”
I let out a breath, my resolve cracking. I was happy she was acting like her old self, and I wanted to explore that a bit further.
“Okay, so what do you suggest I do?”
“You let me help you fully,” she said. “Let me be your life coach.”
“What?” I laughed. “A life coach? You?”
“Hey, just because I’m terrible at my own life, doesn’t mean I’ll be terrible at yours. Besides, you’re going through an issue I know way too much about. This is all about public image; at this point… It’s a popularity contest. It’s an easy fix if you follow along with the rules of the public.”
“Okay,” I said, taking a deep breath. “I’ll follow along.”
She smiled.
“Perfect,” she said. “First things first…we prove your innocence. Daddy might have to get these articles pulled.”
“I don’t want him to know about the protests,” I said, my brows furrowed. “He overheard Olivia saying she wanted to protest me, and I told him I had it handled. I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it, and I played it off as such. It would only upset him if he knew how far it escalated.”
“You aren’t going to be able to hide it from him,” she said, raising her brows. “It’s literally all over the news, and if we are going to the packhouse tonight, then he will see the protesters with his own eyes.”
“I’ll figure something out… but I just want to keep this from him for a little while. Maybe until tonight. I want to be able to tell him myself, and I want to have one last night of just nothing… no stress… no magic… just me and my mate.”
She looked at me a moment longer before she nodded.

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?...
