Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 175

Chapter 0175

Judy’s POV

Later in the evening, we had dinner in the dining hall. I told the kitchen staff and Harper that on the days Gavin isn’t here, I’ll just eat in the kitchen. They seemed to have understood; so far, everybody here was very nice.

The food was delicious as well. I glanced at Gavin who was cutting into his steak and when he felt me staring at him, he glanced in my direction.

“I need to talk to you about something,” I said quickly as I put down my fork.

“Go on,” he said, raising his brows; he was trying hard not to smile, and I could tell because the corner of his lip twitched.

“I need my best friend,” I blurted. “I need to be able to talk to her about stuff and I hate lying about what’s been going on in my life. She’s going to ask questions once she realizes I’m no longer living at the Cash family manor and I’d like to tell her the entire truth about… well… this,” I said, motioning between me and him, and then gesturing to the mansion.

He studied me for a moment; I was holding my breath as his eyes scanned my face and then he put his fork down. His face was shining with indifference, and it made a knot form in the pit of my stomach. I worried about what he was going to say; maybe I was looking way too into this and there was nothing to tell. Either way, I still wanted her to know that I was living in the Landry mansion. But what if he said no

then I would have to continue lying to her.

…

My mind was spiraling, and I was very aware of that, but then he cleared his throat, bringing my attention to his face.

“Is it that girl that works at the Carter resort?” He asked.

I was surprised he remembered her, and I felt a strange sense of jealousy rising in my chest, but I swallowed it down and nodded.

“Yes,” I told him. “Nan. We grew up together and I usually tell her everything about my life and vice versa. She’s my best friend.”

He studied me a bit longer, neither of us saying anything and I started to squirm in my seat, feeling uncomfortable.

Then, after what felt like an eternity, he nodded.

“Okay.”

I raised my brows, watching as he grabbed his fork and continued to eat as if this conversation hadn’t happened.

“Okay?” I asked him, wanting clarification.
