The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 198

Chapter 0198 Irene hadnt meant to spill that secret like that , especially with Ethan being right there .

But she didnt know that Ethan was about to walk in .

She was planning on meeting him later , so it would have been a nice surprise for him to show up at the Villa announce .

However , at this moment , Irene was mortified .

She stared back at Ethan who was staring at her like he was a deer caught in the headlights .

His eyes were impossibly big , and he had no idea what to say at this moment .

He hadnt expected Irene to know about him and Judy , even though nothing was going on between them right now , she was still never supposed to find out that they were in fact fatedmates .

Had Judy told Irene this information ? How would she have found out ?? I didnt mean to cause a scene , Irene said , standing to her feet and wiping at her eyes .

But Judy lied but it was to me from the beginning .

She told me that nothing was going on between her and Ethan , b nothing but a lie .

Gavins eyes found Judys and they darkened .

He was furious and that much was obvious to everyone involved .

Irene wasnt exactly sure which part he was mad at though .

Was he mad that Judy had and betrayed Irene , or was he mad at the fact that shes been sleeping with Ethan ? Maybe now her father will see that she is not the woman he thought she was , and he can leave her behind .

Skyla is the much better choice anyway .

Irene , Baby … Ethan finally said , breaking the silence between them as he stepped closer to her and around Judy .

He didnt even spare Judy a look and it made Irenes heart swell a little .

He looked so distraught and frightened that it tugged at her heartstrings .

I would never do anything to hurt you .

I just didnt want to worry you but Judy and I are indeed mates … but we broke up … theres nothing more to it than that .

Irene wasnt sure if she should believe him or not .

She stared at him with a hurt expression ; tears filling her eyes .

She bit her trembling lower lip , trying to understand what was going on .

I dont know what to trust anymore … Irene admitted , staring down at her hands .

I know … Ethan said softly , reaching his hand out to her like was trying to tame a wild animal .

And its my fault .

Im so sorry .

But I love you , Irene , and I would never do anything to purposely hurt you .

You have to believe me , baby .
