“What are you doing here?” I asked, staring between him and Nan.
Nan had a slight blush on her cheeks, and I had to fight to keep from smiling.
“What do you think I’m doing here?” He asked, raising his brows. “You gave me an address; did you think I wouldn’t use it?”
“You couldn’t wait until we returned?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. I approved of him being here, but at the same time, I knew Nan came here to escape him and get some space.
I tried to gauge her reaction, but she was hard to read.
“No,” he said, his eyes meeting mine. “It couldn’t wait.”
I stared at him for a long time, seeing the sincerity in his eyes, before turning to Nan.
“Can we talk?” I asked her; she lifted her gaze to meet mine and then nodded; a flicker of relief went through her eyes, and I knew she was grateful for the distraction. I told Sammy I’d be back before I grabbed Nan by the hand and pulled her along with me to a private area, away from wandering ears.
The second we were alone, I turned to face her. After a beat of silence, I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her into a tight hug, one I knew she needed desperately. She waited no time, hugging me back, her shoulders shaking as she cried.
“I can’t tell what’s happening, Nan. Are you happy or sad?”.
“I don’t know,” she admitted. “I’m terrified. I’m not sure why he’s even here. He saw Tyler put his hands on me, and then he lost it… nearly killed him. I brought him to the suite so I could clean up, and we started talking. I asked him if he wanted to reject me, and he straight up said he doesn’t know.”
My eyes grew wide as a wave of anger washed through me. How could he say such a thing to her?
I pulled away from her but kept my hands on her arms; tears were spilling out of her eyes.
“Oh, Nan,” I whispered, not sure what more to say.
She sniffled and wiped the tears off her cheeks with the back of her hand.
“After that, the conversation kind of got awkward, and we were both having trouble breathing. I found this garden the other day, and I thought it would be a nice place to continue this conversation. So, here we are… making awkward small talk and not discussing the real problems. That’s pretty much when you arrived.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
Chapter 340 It seems that the author has not finished this story. She did this post about it last spring or summer....
Ch.-22. She needs to get a backbone. She should've screamed for her Mom when he was assaulting her and when he answered his phone with Irene on the phone, she should've screamed out "Ethan get out of my room, your engaged "!!...
Ch.17-I hope Gavin is secretly doing something to expose Ethan to Irene because if not, he's not looking like a very, good father to allow Ethan to date his daughter while knowing that Ethan's flat out lying and keeping stuff from Irene. Also, does Irene not know that he was mated before? I mean, Judy keeps mentioning that her mark on her neck is still there and will be until Ethan marks another. Does he not have a mark? If he does what did he tell Irene? Maybe I'll get my answers soon. So far I have enjoyed reading this novel....
This story is unreadable now that the screenshots won’t load...
these updates always have only half of the original chapters. Its quite frustrating coz I always have to go find the rest of the chapter on one of the reading apps. For instance, this chapter doesnt show the part at the end where "Tabby tells Judy that she always found Sammy weird during the competition, always disappearing for weird phonecalls, how she's in contact with all Gavin's enemies. How the 3 of them decided to investigate her and found tham Sammy's home life has wiped out on all platforms and had lied about a boyfriend that does not exist." Thats so much important parts of the book that we just miss out on...
Anyone know why didn’t see the text on print? I can see just question mark. :(...
I have really enjoyed this book, looking forward to more chapters!...
Can we get updates when a new chapter is up?...
You said gavins mum and Judy haven’t met but they did around the time of the ball and then said at the restaurant that they just met and when she met her previously she wasn’t mean just interfering...
Hi there when will more chapters be released waiting for new chapters is excruciating.......
