The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 55

hapter 0055 Ive known you for a while , Judy .

You cant bullshit me .

What do you expect me to say , Ethan ? That Im not okay ? That my mother is depressed and barely eats ? Isnt this what you wanted ? For me to suffer ? So why are you acting like you care right now when we both know you dont ! Judy ! My mother shrieked from the doorway , her eyes large and alert .

How dare you speak to him like that ! Mom … Hes going to be our Alpha , and he deserves our respect , my mother continued to scold .

Its okay , Mrs.

Montague .

How about you go and sit on the couch ? Ill cook you some dinner , Ethan offered .

vay of My mother beamed at him ; the first smile I had seen from her in a while .

Ethan always had a way bringing that out of her .

How very thoughtful of you , Ethan , she said sweetly .

Thank you .

She gave me another look before she turned and left the kitchen .

I spun around on my heel to glare at him .

What are you doing? I asked him , my tone dry .

Despite what you might think , I actually care about your mother and its hard to see her like this .

Its hard to see you like this too , Judy .

Go into the living room and spend time with her .

Ill cook you both dinner and then afterward we can talk .

I furrowed my brows at him , trying to figure out the gamme he was playing .

But I was too exhausted to think too much about it , so I sighed and walked out of the kitchen .

I didnt bother telling him that I already ate dinner because then he would just ask me innecessary questions .

My mother was curled up on the couch , staring at a picture of my father with tears in her eyes .

I saw beside her , and she was startled at my presence .

Why cant you just do what he wants so we can get your father back ? She asked me , taking me by surprise .

I looked at her in disbelief ; if only she knew what it was he was asking me to do .

Because we dont need his help , Mom , I told her for the hundredth time .

I have us covered .

How ? That tutoring job is hardly enough to pay off your fathers debt , my mother told me , her voice pleading .

We need him to come home , Judy .

I covered my mothers hands with mine , trying to provide her with some type of comfort .

And he will , I assured her .

I promise .

Not before long , the room was filled with the scent of garlic from the pasta sauce .

Had Ethan made pasta 1/2 cha Chapter 0055 sauce from scratch ? He didnt need to do all of that ; I just needed my mother to have a little something in her system .noveldrama
