Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 455

Judy’s POV

My heart weighed heavy in my chest as I stared up at Gavin. He had a scowl on his face and he looked like he wanted to punch something at the thought of his sister. Gavin hadn’t told me much about her, but I knew she fell on hard times. She wasn’t like the rest of the Landry’s. She cut ties with them a long time ago though from what I hear; nobody knows what truly happened to Cassandra Landry. She stopped appearing in newspapers and magazines. It was almost like she never existed and everybody kind of just moved on with their lives.

Matthew was only 1 year old when he went to live with Gavin and his family and nobody questioned it. They all assumed he had a kid with someone if they saw glimpses of Matt, but for the most part, Gavin tried hard to keep him out of the limelight because of that.

“Why does she want to see Matthew?” Gavin finally asked as he worked to compose himself.

“Because she’s his mother and she hasn’t seen him in years,” Donna replied, narrowing her eyes at Gavin, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world and she was shocked he would even ask such a thing.

“Matthew barely even knows who she is,” Gavin said, his lip curling up in disgust. “This would disrupt his life and I’m not going to put him through that.”

“Or maybe it won’t,” Donna said with a shrug. “He knows his mother is your sister; he’s a smart kid, Gavin. He knows his mother had fallen on hard times and that she’s working to get better.”

“Is she though?” Gavin asked, folding his arms across his chest. “Because you know I keep regular tabs on her progress and her doctors are saying she’s not willing to work with them. She’s erratic and has manic episodes. I’m not letting Matt get hurt… not again.”

“I visited with her and she was really heartfelt when she spoke about Matthew,” Donna said, a frown marring her lips. “She’s sorry for what she put him through when he was a baby.”

Gavin growled, stopping his mother’s words. She stared at him with wide eyes, shocked that he had the audacity to growl at his own mother.
