Chapter 0199 Irene gawked at him ; she suspected as much , but hearing Ethan confirm it was mind boggling .<\/p>\n
What ? She asked in a breathy whisper .<\/p>\n
Shes using my father to get pet to v you ? Yes , of course she is , he said , rolling his eyes .<\/p>\n
Why else would she be hanging around him like this ? Its pathetic if you ask me .<\/p>\n
Shes flirted with me so much since she started working here and I keep telling her that Im not interested .<\/p>\n
Shes not the person you thought she was , Irene .<\/p>\n
You should be careful around her .<\/p>\n
Irene knew this , but hearing it was different .<\/p>\n
Anger coursed through her ; she started to hate Judy just a little more and now her poor Ethan was a victim to her Ethan closed the gap between them , seeing this as his opportunity to comfort her .<\/p>\n
He wrapped her in his arms and kept her close to his body .<\/p>\n
His wolf wasnt exactly happy about this \u2026 but he needed to comfort Irene if he wanted his plans to work out .<\/p>\n
I love yo you , Ethan murmured , kissing the top of her head .<\/p>\n
Im so sorry that you got hurt .<\/p>\n
But I promise , Im not hiding anything more from you .<\/p>\n
15 Irene nodded against his chest and let out a breath of relief .<\/p>\n
She felt better after this talk , she now knew who her friends were and who were her enemies and Judy was no friend .<\/p>\n
Judys POV Gavin pressed the warm cloth to my nose , wiping away the excess blood on my face .<\/p>\n
We hadnt spoken since Irene and Ethan went upstairs .<\/p>\n
I was hoping that she would have told Ethan to get lost and not take him back .<\/p>\n
But that didnt seem to be the case ; the moment she took his hand , I knew she was going to forgive him .<\/p>\n
I was honestly surprised Gavin was even allowing that to happen ; he knew what scum Ethan was .<\/p>\n
Yet , hes still letting his daughter marry him .<\/p>\n
Were you the one who told her ? Gavin asked , breaking the silence between us .<\/p>\n
I looked up at him , surprised by the question .<\/p>\n
No , of course not , I told him .<\/p>\n
I wouldnt do that .<\/p>\n
I wouldnt want to hurt her like that .<\/p>\n
Then , how did she find out ? Gavin asked , his tone accusatory .<\/p>\n
I frowned at him .<\/p>\n
I dont know , I said slowly .<\/p>\n
I have no idea how she found out , but it wasnt from me .<\/p>\n
He studied my face for a moment before nodding and returning his attention to the blood on my face .<\/p>\n
You shouldnt have fought with her .<\/p>\n
1 narrowed my eyes at her , shocked by his words .<\/p>\n
She threw the first punch , I told him .<\/p>\n
I barely fought back .<\/p>\n
You know I could have- You should have walked away before it got to that point .<\/p>\n
Chapter 0199 His words were like a slap in the face , and I wasnt sure what to say in response .<\/p>\n
We both remained silent for a while and once he finished wiping the blood on my face , he leaned back and studied me even more .<\/p>\n
to I think until the filming is finished , you shouldnt come villa , he told me .<\/p>\n
Ill send Matt to you at the mansion .<\/p>\n
I raised my brows .<\/p>\n
You arent worried about Matt finding out that Im living here ? I asked him .<\/p>\n
He shook his head .noveldrama<\/p>\n
Matts only been there a few times himself , Gavin admitted .<\/p>\n
If he asks any questions , we can just tell him that you needed a place to stay , and I offered the mansion .<\/p>\n
Theres nothing more to it than that , right ? I bit my lip , feeling hurt , but I nodded .<\/p>\n
Right , I murmured .<\/p>\n
And I think its best if you stayed away from Irene .<\/p>\n
At least until things cool down , he murmured .<\/p>\n
He didnt have to tell me twice ; Irene made it perfectly clear where I stood with her .<\/p>\n
As much as it hurt to lose a friend , it was probably better if I didnt hang out with my exs fianc\u00e9 anyway .<\/p>\n
I nodded again , hating how red my face was getting .<\/p>\n
You should go , he concluded as he stood to his feet .<\/p>\n
I wont be there tonight , but Ill try to swing by tomorrow .<\/p>\n
Its okay , I said softly .<\/p>\n
I get it .<\/p>\n
He didnt reply , but I could feel his eyes on me .<\/p>\n
C \u2026 can you tell Irene that Im sorry ? I asked him , peeking up at him through his lashes .<\/p>\n
His jaw clenched and unclenched , and he nodded .<\/p>\n
Sure , he said .<\/p>\n
I gave him a faint smile , but I turned and left , unable to spare him another look .<\/p>\n
