Chapter 0222 Matt looked up at me and a grin spread across his face .
I wanted to get this done quickly so we can spar outside ! He told me.
I kind of wish we were still at the mansion though .
I liked it over there .
Your father thinks its better if we worked here because of the paparazzi .
Until he takes care of it , its better if you didnt go over there , I told him .
I just hoped that they would be cleared by the time it was time for me to go home .
The last thing I wanted was the stay here … not with Irene under the same roof .
I knew she didnt like or trust me right now and I didnt want things to continue being awkward between us .
I think spending the night with her father would make things even more awkward .
He nodded thoughtfully and then he grinned again .
So , are you going to be my mom ? I nearly choked on my spit as I sat down beside him .
Im sorry , what ? I asked him , snapping my eyes in his direction .
He shrugged as if he didnt just ask me that question so casually .
I saw the news reports .
I dont live under a rock , he told me , eyeing me suspiciously and making my cheeks burn even more .
Im not upset if you are going to be my mom .
I would really like it if you were .
Oh , Matt … I said , my heart squeezed in my chest .
The last thing I wanted was to disappoint and hurt him , but I certainly didnt think I was going to marry Gavin .
Maybe we should talk about this later ? His face fell a little , but he nodded .
He wasnt stupid , he knew I was avoiding the subject .
But he was polite enough to not say anything .
We continued with his homework and then we spent time sparring in the backyard .
Now that the film crew was done , it was nice having the space to ourselves again .
I hadnt noticed someone else had joined us in the training grounds until Matts eyes wandered and then grew large .
Oh , hello Miss Sinclaire , Matt said .
I turned and my jaw nearly dropped when I saw Skyla approaching us .
She gave Matt a small nod and then her eyes shifted into my direction .
My cheeks bumed under her scrutiny .
H … hello , I said to her , hating that I stuttered .
Can we talk for a minute ? She asked me .
My eyes grew large ; what could she possibly want to speak to me about ? I glanced down at Matt , and he seemed to get the hint because he nodded and quickly went to finish practicing with the bow and arrow .
I turned to Skyla , forcing a smile in her direction .
Whats this about ? I asked her .
I think you know what this is about , she told me , raising her perfectly trimmed brows .
Its about you and Gavins relationship .
Chapter 0222 +25 BONUS My cheeks burned even more .
I wanted to tell her that we didnt exactly have a relationship ; at least not like that .
But the words wouldnt leave my lips .
My wolf wouldnt allow me to say those words to her because she didnt want them to be true .
I wasnt sure what that meant exactly , but I found myself clamping my lips shut and listening to more of what she had to say .
If I had known he was already committed to someone , I would have never pursued him , Skyla continued to tell me .
I just wanted you to know that Im not a homewrecker and I cant have the paparazzi thinking that I am .
I was surprised by her words .
I dont think anyone is calling you a homewrecker , assured her .
I kissed him on camera , she said , her cheeks reddening slightly .
At some point, they will start talking about it .
They are so focused on his new relationship that they havent put any of the pieces together yet .
I know Gavin is working on getting the stories pulled , but I worry about my reputation .
Well , if it comes down to it , I will tell them that our relationship is new and that he was single when he met you .
The words left my lips before I could stop them , and I immediately regretted them .
Was I really planning on telling the paparazzi that I was in a relationship with Gavin Landry ? As if things werent hard enough as they are .
Skyla also looked surprised ; she thought about it for a moment before she nodded .
Just dont make it seem like he left me for you , she told me , winking as if she were telling a funny joke .
But I knew she was serious .
Look , Im really sorry for any misunderstandings I may have caused .
I was under the impression that his fling with you wasn t serious .
I wouldnt have pursued him if I knew .
Its okay , I reassured her .
Its not your fault .
We were keeping things secret .
Thats not on you .
Her face softened and she nodded .

י Well , thats all I wanted to say , she told me and turned to leave but then she paused for a moment .
Oh , and Judy ? Yes ? Hold onto him tightly , she told me .
Hes a good man … and he deserves someone who will stick by his side no matter what .
