hapter 0189 If Judy wanted to play games , then frene could play ten times better .<\/p>\n
And what does this Judy have that I dont ? Skyla asked ; she had noticed that Gavin barely spared her a second glance and ignored her subtle advances .<\/p>\n
Now she knew the reasoning behind that \u2026 it was because of Judy .<\/p>\n
Nothing .<\/p>\n
Irene murmured .<\/p>\n
Judy is my age \u2026 shes too young for him .<\/p>\n
My father deserves a real woman .<\/p>\n
Not to mention you are way prettier .<\/p>\n
Skyla smiled at that thought .<\/p>\n
That was perfect ; that meant she still had a fighting chance .<\/p>\n
She wasnt going to let this Judy girl win Gavins heart .<\/p>\n
Skyla , we are waiting for you ! Chanse called to her from the parlor .<\/p>\n
I need to be going , Skyla told Irene .<\/p>\n
But thank you for this helpful information .<\/p>\n
Im going to make sure your father chooses the right woman .<\/p>\n
Irene smiled , her plan in motion .<\/p>\n
Thats all I ask , she said innocently .<\/p>\n
Ill do my part and maybe try and get Judy to walk away as well .<\/p>\n
Skyla nodded ; she pegged Irene all wrong .<\/p>\n
She thought Irene was a spoiled little princess who could do no wrong and had no evil bone in her body .<\/p>\n
Maybe she was a spoiled little princess \u2026 but she was no saint .<\/p>\n
If things worked out with Skyla and Gavin , she might enjoy being a stepmother to this girl .<\/p>\n
She said a hasty goodbye before she retreated and went to the Parlor , pleased to see Gavin already there , She used that opportunity to sit beside him and make her move .<\/p>\n
Meanwhile , Irene waited outside the parlor door , knowing that Judy would be here soon .<\/p>\n
Her father told her to let Judy know that the tutoring session would be moved to a new location for today because of their last minute meeting .<\/p>\n
He was busy and wasnt able to text her himself , so he asked Irene to do it for him .<\/p>\n
She told him she would , but she didnt .<\/p>\n
She wanted Judy to come to the parlor and see Skyla with her father .<\/p>\n
She wanted her to see what a good couple they made .<\/p>\n
Telling from the paling expression on Judys face , her plan had worked wonderfully .<\/p>\n
Now she had it in her head that Gavin was moving on with someone much better than her and it wouldnt be long before she left .<\/p>\n
She didnt want to break her fathers heart , but she knew Skyla could put the pieces back together .<\/p>\n
Plus , Gavin was the strongest man that she knew \u2026 he wouldnt let a simple fling weaken him .<\/p>\n
Thats all Judy was \u2026 a fling .<\/p>\n
I overheard Skyla talking last night , Irene went on to tell Judy who appeared frozen as she stared at Skyla and Gavin communicating .<\/p>\n
Shes very interested in my father .<\/p>\n
Im already starting to think of her as a stepmother .<\/p>\n
I see \u2026 Judy said in a breathy whisper .<\/p>\n
She looked utterly crushed and , in a way , it kind of surprised Irene .<\/p>\n
She thought that Judy was only using Gavin to get close to Ethan and that she wouldnt be as hurt as she was .<\/p>\n
But seeing the many rays of emotions crossing her face , gave Irene some pause .<\/p>\n
Then , she shook the thought out of her head \u2026 It Chapter 0189 was only an act .<\/p>\n
She had been acting since the moment they met , and she was good at it .<\/p>\n
There was no way Judy was actually hurt over seeing Gavin with another woman .<\/p>\n
She was only upset that her plan to get close to Ethan was failing and now she was going to have to come up with a new plan that didnt involve Irenes father .<\/p>\n
Irene was determined to expose all her plans though ; she wasnt going to let Judy win .<\/p>\n
Im sorry \u2026 Judy said , stepping away from the parlor I think Im not feeling well .<\/p>\n
Can you apologize to Matt for me and tell him that our session will be moved to tomorrow .<\/p>\n
Irene gave her a fake concerned frown .<\/p>\n
Of course , she said with fake sweetness .<\/p>\n
Is everything okay ? You are looking pale .<\/p>\n
Judy nodded numbly and pulled her eyes away from the parlor door to look at Irene .<\/p>\n
She froze when she saw the tears in Judys eyes .<\/p>\n
She was trying hard to hide them , but they were clear as day .<\/p>\n
Judy was hurt and upset \u2026 , but that didnt make any sense .<\/p>\n
Why be upset over something like this when she didnt truly want Gavin in the first place ? It was Ethan she wanted \u2026 Yes , Judy said , turning her face away .<\/p>\n
It was good to see you , Irene .<\/p>\n
With that , Judy left without another word , leaving Irene confused<\/p>\n
