Chapter 0090
Judy’s POV
“He kissed you?!” Nan shrieked on the phone the next afternoon. I had to pull the phone away from my ear at the sound of her loud voice.
“Yes,” I told her. “It was unexpected.”
The Uber driver parked the car outside of Gavin’s villa. I thanked him before handing him his tip and got out of the car.
“Nan, I have to go, I just got to work,” I told her, rushing her off the phone as I ascended the steps that led to the front door.
“Okay, but you have to call me later. I need all the details,” she told me.
“Will do,” I assured her, and then I hung up the phone.
Truth be told, there weren’t many details to tell her. The kiss was decent enough, but it wasn’t anything to write home about. It didn’t ignite my passion or leave me feeling breathless… it didn’t even make my legs weak. It was nothing like the kiss I’ve shared with Gavin in the past.
My cheeks warmed at the thought.
Why was Gavin popping up in my head at moments like these? I should not be thinking about Gavin or his kisses. That was the last thing I should be thinking about right now. But even during my date last night when I was with Walter, I couldn’t help but wonder what it would have been like to be with Gavin. To have Gavin’s arms wrapped around me while we danced under the moonlight to beautiful jazz music. What it would have been like to have his lips pressed against mine during the heat of the passion and to know that I was the only one he wanted to be with.
I needed to get a grip on myself because those thoughts were ridiculous. Those things could never happen. He was my boss and nothing more. Just because we almost had sex that one time, doesn’t mean he has any type of feelings towards me.
If anything, he felt the opposite. He thought of me as a showgirl. Someone he can have one–night stands with and never see again.
The thought left an unsettled feeling in my chest that swallowed down.
Adam stood at the doorway with an indifferent look on his face. I knew he was still upset with me for making him look foolish in front of his boss. Now, he wasn’t even allowed to speak in the presence of Gavin. It’s not like it was my fault; Adam was the one who was trying to get me fired the moment I got the job. I still didn’t understand why that was; I mean Adam was the one who invited me to apply for this job in the first place.
“Master Matthew is waiting for you in the parlor,” he told me. “He’s already gotten a head start on his homework. I think he’s eager to spar this evening.”
I smiled at the thought.
“Thanks, Adam,” I said to him, trying to be polite.
I glanced at Matt who was still busy doing his homework before I turned back to Irene.
“I don’t mind,” I told her.
She looked relieved and relaxed back into the loveseat. I went to Matt and sat beside him. We spent the next hour doing the rest of his homework and going over the stuff that he had already done. Once completed, we went out back to practice combat and defense. As we walked outside, I was surprised to see that Irene was following us. Her nose was still buried in her phone, and she was barely paying attention to where she was walking, but she was following after us.
Once we reached our destination, Irene sat at one of the lounge chairs that was set up and she continued to type away on her phone. I furrowed my brows at her, but she didn’t notice.
“Her and Ethan got into another fight,” Matt whispered. “She’s been sulking all day.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
3 days no update? I hope all is well with the author and the right amount of chapters are uploaded when able :/...
I’m confused about the chapters as they only seem to be a page long if that, one other books the same...
They have up to chapter 640 uploaded on the “Good Novel” app...
Maybe they took the long weekend off and decided not to upload? I hope then upload at least 6 chapters then....
Nope…no uploads...
Does anyone know what's going on? I haven't seen any new chapters yesterday or today....
Ermmm is it just me or there hasn’t been an upload …...
No comment...
Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
