Chapter 0091 My heart lightened a little ; I felt bad for her .
She had no idea about the cruel jerk she was engaged to , but maybe she would start to understand things on her own .
I brushed the thought out of my head ; it wasnt my problem or concern .
I was here to do a job and that was it .
My main focus was on my father and getting his debt paid so he could return to my mother , and we could be a happy family once again .
Matt and I spent the next couple of hours sparring and practicing his defense moves .
Once we were finished , were both panting and covered in sweat .
Good practice , I praised , patting him on the back .
Youve been improving greatly .
I have a great tutor , he replied with a beaming smile .
Thanks for helping me , Judy .
.
You should get inside and shower before dinner .
Im sure the maids are in the process of cooking it as we speak , I told him , glancing at my watch and seeing that it was just past 5 pm .
He nodded and hurried inside .
My eyes wandered over to Irene who was no longer staring at her phone ; instead , she was staring at me .
She had an expression on her face that I couldnt quite read … maybe it was nervousness .
Like she wanted to talk to me about something , but she was too afraid to bring it up .
I figured if she wanted to talk , she would , so I turned away and started to clean up my supplies , shoving them into my bag .
I hadnt noticed , or heard her , moving from her seat , but by the time I was done packing up my things and turning back around , she was standing right behind me .
I nearly fell backward in shock .
Sorry , she murmured .

I didnt mean to scare you … She bit her lower lip and rubbed the back of her arm awkwardly as she stood in front of me .
I sighed , giving in .
Is everything okay , Irene ? I asked her .
You seem off today .
As if she was snapping herself out of her daze , she blinked a few times and then lifted her gaze to meet mine .
Im not really sure .
I guess Im just confused , she admitted .
Judy , do you want to go shopping with me tonight ? I raised my brows .
I dont really have the money to go shopping , I admitted , feeling my cheeks redden .
It would be my treat of course , she said hurriedly .
We can grab something for dinner too .
Just the two of us .
Is there a reason behind it ? I asked her , raising my brows .
No … I just need someone to talk to , she said softly , glancing at the ground .
Im not sure if Im the best one for that , Irene … I tried to say , but she quickly stopped me .
I dont have anyone else , Judy , she said quickly .
I could use some girl time … please … she pleaded .
+25 BONUS Chapter 0091 My heart tugged for the girl , and I found it hard to say no , so I relented with a sigh .
Okay , I told her .
I glanced down at my sweaty gym clothes .
I should probably change though .
I have clothes you can borrow ! She said , grabbing my arm .
Come on ! She pulled me along with her and when we got inside , we nearly ran straight into Gavin .
He froze at the sight of us and then his eyes darkened when he saw our interlocked arms .
What are you two doing ? He asked , staring between the two of us .
Im taking Judy to change her clothes , Irene answered before I could utter a single word .
We are going shopping and to get dinner .
He raised his brows at his daughter and then his eyes focused on me .
Is that so ? I bit my lip and nodded slowly , my eyes never leaving his .
Yes , I answered , my voice coming out way breathier than I wanted it to .
My heart was hammering in my chest and my wolf was immediately perking up being in the presence of Gavin Landry .
I had to fight to keep her under control ; she was embarrassing sometimes .
Irene started to pull me away but as we stepped around Gavin , his hand wrapped around my bicep , halting me in place .
His touch sent a shockwave through my system and goosebumps immediately formed on my flesh .
Irene frowned at her father .
Shell meet you up there , Gavin told his daughter .
She gave me a concerned look before glaring at her father again .
Eventually , she nodded and unhooked her arm from mine .
She quickly hurried up the stairs .
Iturned to look at Gavin who kept his gentle hold on my arm .
Can I help you with something , Alpha ? I asked him , trying to appear innocent .
I dont know what game you are playing , but leave Irene out of it , he said through his teeth .
I was a bit hurt by his words ; I wasnt trying to play any game , and it wasnt right that hed assume otherwise .
Im not sure what you are talking about , I told him truthfully .
You can pretend all you want , but I know women like you .
Youll step on anyone if it means getting what you want , he murmured , his voice low and threatening .
You already have my nephew wrapped around your finger , Im sure hes a part of your pawn as well .
If you hurt my daughter , Ill make your life a living hell .
