SEDUCING MY EX’S FATHER IN LAW - Season 2 Episode 19

Judys POV

The Gala was just as beautiful as I imagined ; it was also incredibly crowded .

The moment our limo pulled up to the front entrance where everyone was lined up to get inside , the paparazzi were all over us .

Flashes of light nearly blinded me , and Walter had to take my hand and guide me through the doorway .

kept asking questions about what Irene was wearing and when they got a look at me , one of them recognized Ella Venutis design and started to ask me questions about it too .

The 1 I opened my mouth to answer them about where I got the dress , but Irene stopped me .

You dont want to talk to the press , she whispered .

They are nasty buggers and will twist anything you say .

I bit my lip and nodded .

We walked over to the security guards at the entrance , Ethan pulled out the invites for him and Irene .

The security guard looked at them for a moment before nodding and stepping aside for them to enter .

Walter handed the security guard our tickets next , and he looked them over before nodding and stepping aside from us as well .

Walter offered me his arm and I smiled thoughtfully as I took it .

The music was loud , and everybody was wearing dazzling gowns and suits ; I couldnt recognize anybody behind the masks , but I wasnt sure if Id be able to recognize anyone regardless .

This place is amazing , I breathed , staring up at the light streamers that danced across the ceiling .

Its beautiful .

First time at the Gala ? Walter asked , giving me a questionable look .

I nodded .

Is it that obvious ? I asked , feeling my cheeks warm under his scrutiny .

I guess its a new experience for us both then , he admitted .

I looked at him surprised .

Youve never been before either ? He shrugged causally .

Not to an American one , he told me .

Ive been to a few Galas in France , but nothing quite like this .

Im also way too busy with work , so I dont go out often .

So , what are we supposed to do at these things besides stand here and look pretty ? I asked , teasingly .

He smirked .

We drink and mingle with the rich , he replied .

When I chuckled , he grinned .

Can I get you a drink ? That would be great , I told him .

Anything besides champaign .

You arent a fan ? Chapter 01.19 Not really , I answered .

He nodded thoughtfully .

Ill make sure to remember that , he said , winking before he turned and walked towards the bar .

There you are , Irene said , draping her arm through mine .

Come on ; we have a reserved table over here .

I glanced behind her and saw that Ethan was already seated at the table .

I swallowed down the bile that rose in my throat as I willed my legs to move towards that table with Irene .

This was going to be one long night .

Gavins POV Mr.

Landry , how much are you donating for the Gala this year ? Mr.

Landry , who designed your suit ? Are you here with anybody special tonight ? I ignored the paparazzi as I often did , the second I reached the security guard , he nodded at me and let me in , without even needing my invitation .

As I stepped around him , I paused and reached into my pocket to grab my mask .

I slipped it over my face and then walked the rest of the way inside .

I truly wasnt a fan of these events , but as the person funding it , it was my duty to be here .

The staff were running around , trying to serve as many guests as possible .

Everybody was in their elegant attire , mingling amongst one another .

When they noticed me walking by , most women puffed out their chests , making their breasts look bigger , and batted their lashes .

I ignored them , just as I did with the paparazzi The first place I went to was the bar ; I paused when I saw Walter ordering a couple of drinks from the bartender .

If Walter was here , that meant Judy was here .

As if it was instinct , my eyes immediately found her .

She was seated rather uncomfortably at a table with Ethan and Irene .

It seemed that Irene was talking her ear off , and Ethan wouldnt take his eyes off Judy .

My blood boiled at the sight of it ; his eyes should only be for my daughter and no one else .

Was I seriously going to have to speak to him again about this ? And what was Judy thinking ? Wearing a dress like that knowing there were going to be unmated males around here and that she was going to be around her ex mate ? It was almost as if she wanted his attention .

Uncle ? Walter asked as he started to walk past , drinks in hand .

I turned my scrutiny onto him and nodded without uttering a single word .

Im glad you came , Walter said , a small smile on his face .

I hope that its okay that I took Judy here .

I know you had a thing about me dating one of your staff members .

But Judy is different .

I truly like her .

I might even be in love with her .

My blood went cold at his words .

Chapter 0119 In love ? Could Judy really be in love with this fool in return ? Walter had a history with women ; he fell in love too quickly , but he always ended up finding someone new and dropping his current love .

It really showed Judys incompetence for falling for a guy like that .
