Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Chapter 0234 Judys POW +25 BONUS Gavin wanted to take me out tonight .

He texted me to tell me to be ready by a certain time and I was more than eager to go out with him .

After I left the kitchen this morning , I went straight to my room to take a long bath .

I needed to clear my head and wash away all the negative thoughts that had collected in my mind .

I tried calling Nan a few times this morning , but now her phone was turned off and it was going straight to voicemail .

I even sent her a couple of text messages , but they remained unopened .

My heart squeezed painfully in my chest , I hated that she was going through this .

I hated that Chester was putting her through this .

I knew I would see her at school tomorrow , but I needed to know now that she was okay .

As I stepped out of the tub and grabbed a towel , I wrapped it around my body .

I pulled the plug to the drain so the water would go down and then I turned to look in the mirror .

It looked as if I hadnt slept in days .

I sighed , it was going to take a lot to make me presentable for my date with Gavin tonight .

There was a knock on my bedroom door , and I quickly spun on my heel and hurried out of the bathroom .

There was a part of me that hoped it was Nan , even though I knew it wasnt likely .

I pulled the door open , and I stood surprised to see Harper standing at the doorway .

Her eyes were red rimmed , and her nose was pink ; it was clear she had been crying and my heart tugged at her as well .

I didnt know Harper all that well ; since my time here , she had been a good maid and started to slowly become my friend .

However , I found Chester to be more my friend than Harper .

But that didnt mean I wanted her to be hurting as well .

Hey , Harper … I said , uncertainty filling my tone .

Are you okay ? She wiped at her damp eyes and forced an obviously fake smile .

Yeah , sorry , she said softly .

I was just seeing if you needed anything .

Sorry , I havent been super tentative lately .

I shook my head , waiving off her concern .

You dont need to worry about it , Harper , I assured her .

Its honestly okay .

But Im worried about you .

Yesterday was really rough … Im okay … she said quickly .

I think I could just use a distraction .

I thought about it for a moment , and then I smiled .

Well , I have an idea , I told her , grabbing her arm and pulling her into my room , shutting the door behind us .

She looked startled and stumbled over her feet for a second , it made me laugh .

I have a date tonight .

She winced at my words , and I realized she probably didnt want to think about dating or anything like that .

Well , its kind of a date , Gavin and I arent exactly dating its complicated , I told her .

Harpers expression softened and she nodded .

I can understand complicated , she told me .

I figured you could , I told her .

But I havent seen him in a few days , and he wants to spend the night with me .

I want to make myself look hot for him but Im kind of torn look like I havent slept in years .

She studied me for a moment and then a smile tipped the corner of her lips .

I wasnt going to say anything , but yeah .

You kind of look ke crap , she teased .

+25 BONUS Chapter 0234 I frowned at her and narrowed my eyes .

You are one of talk , I teased right back .

Her cheeks grew red from embarrassment , and I nudged her with my shoulder .

Im kidding , I assured her .

I get it .

Honestly , I think we could both use the distraction .

You think I can help you get dressed for your not date ? She asked .

I laughed at her choice of words and nodded .

You have incredible style and Im honestly jealous of how well you can do your own makeup .

I was wondering if you could maybe do that for me ? She lit up at my words and nodded eagerly .

Yes , I can do that .

Thats actually the perfect distraction .

wanted to be a makeup artist for a long time , she admitted .

I frowned .

Why didnt you ? She shrugged .

School costs a lot of money and I dont have that kind of money yet .

Thats why Im working here … so I can earn enough to put myself through school , she told me .

I understood that better than anyone .

It made me respect Harper that much more .

I get it , I told her .

Thats kind of why I tutor Matthew .

Im putting myself through school too .

She raised her brows .

You are ? She asked .

Whats your major ? Combat and defense , I told her .

Im doing Gamma warrior training .

That explains why you train Matthew in combat , she said thoughtfully .

I nodded .

What makes you want to be a gamma warrior ? She asked I want to protect the werewolf Kingdom , I admitted .

Ive always wanted better for our kind .

Im even more determined since something terrible happened to my family recently .

I want to be able to protect them from anything ever happening again .
