SEDUCING MY EX’S FATHER IN LAW - Season 3 Episode 47

Judys POV

My phone rang , interrupting my sparring lessons with Matt 1 grabbed my phone out of my gym bag that sat under a tree When I looked at the caller ID , my heart was in my throat .

It was Eliza at the hospital .

With a racing heart , I swiped the green talk button and pressed the phone to my cheek .

Hello ? I said , trying not to sound as nervous as I felt .

Hey , Judy .

Its Elizabeth , she said on the other end .

Im calling regards to Nan Rugby .

Hi … I said , swallowing the lump in my throat .

Is everything okay ? Yes , everything is great .

She pulled through nicely .

Shes awake now and is on antibiotics .

She will be leaving tomorrow afternoon to return home .

Will you be able to escort her ? Of course , I said quickly .

Ill be there tomorrow .

Thank you so much .

Of course .

Im glad I could help her , Eliza said thoughtfully .

See you tomorrow .

With that , she hung up .

I let out a breath I hadnt known I was holding .

Everything okay ? I spun around when I heard a nearby voice , my heart hammering against my chest .

My eyes grew wide when I saw Gavin walking towards me .

I didnt even know he returned home and when his eyes found mine , a small smile tipped the corner of his lips .

I could see concern in his eyes as he studied my face , but for the most part , he kind of looked pleased to see me .

Was I being ridiculous to think for a minute that maybe he was pleased to see me ? Maybe this was more than what I initially thought it was ? I mean , we had barely seen each other in days … this was the first time we were able to actually speak to one another , so maybe I was a fool .

Yeah , I managed to squeak out as I shoved my phone into my pocket .

It was just Elizabeth … Hows Nan doing ? He asked , stopping only an inch away from me.

I heard she had food poisoning My cheeks flushed ; did he check up on Nans condition ? Or maybe Taylor had told him .

I swallowed the lump in my throat and nodded .

Yeah , she did .

But Eliza said shes going to be fine .

She made it out of surgery and shes awake .

Shes resting now and should be ready to come home tomorrow .

He nodded thoughtfully You should have her stay with you at the mansion , he suggested , surprising me .

She lives alone , right ? Maybe it would help her to be close to someone in case she needs something .

I thought about it for a minute ; I wasnt sure if Nan would even want to stay at the mansion with Chester being there .

He was the reason she was driven to drink in the first place .

I didnt want to tell Gavin that information though because it wasnt my story to tell and plus , I didnt want to get Chester in trouble .

So , I pressed my lips together and nodded .

Ill ask her , I told him .

Chapter 0247 He gave me a small nod , his eyes never leaving mine .

After a heartbeat of silence , Gavin cleared his throat and shifted in his shoes, almost looking uncomfortable and a little boyish .

It was oddly cute and I had to bite my lower lip to keep from smiling up at him .

So , Ive been thinking and- He started to say , but he was interrupted by another presence nearby .

Daddy ! We both turned to see Irene walking towards us .

I had to stifle a groan ; I should have known she wouldnt be far behind .

If Gavin was talking to me , Irene was bound to interrupt .

Thats all she seemed to do lately .

She was determined to make it so I got zero alone time with her father … and it was working .

My chest tightened at the sight of her ; I expected her to look at me with smugness like she normally does , but when I saw her red face and puffy eyes , my heart dropped .

Something was seriously wrong this time ; she didnt look comfortable , and she didnt look pleased that she was biterrupting us .

She had her arms wrapped around her body like she was trying to hold herself together and a tear slipped out of one of her eyes .

She quickly wiped it away with her fingers and sniffled , her eyes shifting downward .
