Chapter 0274 My eyes scanned the email briefly until I found the room number .<\/p>\n
My heart was still .<\/p>\n
Room 906 .<\/p>\n
I was in the wrong room .<\/p>\n
What terrible luck 1 had ! My face burned with embarrassment as my eyes narrowed at the room number .<\/p>\n
I was in Gavin Landrys hotel suite .<\/p>\n
Suddenly , it felt as if I was going to pass out from this extreme humiliation .<\/p>\n
I could barely even look at him despite knowing he was staring down at me with a deep frown on his lips .<\/p>\n
He thought I was here to stalk him \u2026 he had no idea that I was in the competition , and I wasnt sure if I should even bother telling him .<\/p>\n
These last few weeks he couldnt care less about me or what I did \u2026 so why would that change now ? Well ? He asked .<\/p>\n
Are you going to reply , or are you just going to stand there ? I was at a loss for words .<\/p>\n
I spent the entire night in Gavins room , that meant Nan had been in our room all alone \u2026 all night .<\/p>\n
Oh Goddess , she must have been so worried about me .<\/p>\n
Here I was thinking she was out all night , but in reality , it was me who was out all night .<\/p>\n
I \u2026 I started to say , my voice trailing off as thoughts continued to consume me .<\/p>\n
L ..<\/p>\n
I have to go , I rushed out as I turned and hurried out of the room .<\/p>\n
I was only a few rooms down , but I didnt want him following me or finding me later .<\/p>\n
So , I headed for the elevator instead .<\/p>\n
I wasnt sure where I was going , but I knew I couldnt stay there .<\/p>\n
Gavins POV I couldnt say I had no memory of last night ; I got way too drunk and made some choices that I probably shouldnt have been making while screwed up .<\/p>\n
Waking up this morning , it was still a shock to see Judy on the floor of my hotel suite .<\/p>\n
She was the last person I thought I would see here .<\/p>\n
Thated how my body reacted to the sight of her .<\/p>\n
Even as a disheveled and naked mess , she was still beautiful .<\/p>\n
It wasnt good that she was here ; if Alpha Levi caught wind of my relationship with her , he would use her against me no doubt .<\/p>\n
I needed to make sure that he knew nothing about Judy and me .<\/p>\n
I searched for her in the halls , but she was long gone .<\/p>\n
There was no trace of her ever being here besides her lingering scent .<\/p>\n
I could find her easily if I wanted to , but I decided not to bother .<\/p>\n
I was bound to run into Levi or the paparazzi if I left right now .<\/p>\n
I needed to keep a low profile until the competition started Chapter 0274 1 grabbed my phone and brought up Taylors contact .<\/p>\n
Yes , Alpha ? Taylor asked as soon as he answered the phone .<\/p>\n
Based on his tone , he knew this was a business call and nota personal one .<\/p>\n
Did you know that Judy Montague was going to be here ? asked , my tone hard and filled with an underlying hint of betrayal .<\/p>\n
Had my own Beta known this fact and kept it from me ? For a second , he hesitated .<\/p>\n
No , he finally replied .<\/p>\n
I didnt know she would be there .<\/p>\n
But Adam told me she wouldnt be around for a bit .<\/p>\n
Adam ? I asked , the image of my butler coming into mind How the hell does Adam know anything ? He must have forgotten to mention it to you .<\/p>\n
Judy requested the next few weeks off .<\/p>\n
I felt a headache brewing in my temple from this talk .<\/p>\n
I needed him to get to the point and tell me something useful before I lost control of myself .<\/p>\n
Did she come here because she knew I was going to be here ? I asked through my teeth .<\/p>\n
Adam didnt give me a reason for her absence .<\/p>\n
I mean , its school break so I assumed she was just taking some time off for that .<\/p>\n
Its not like Mathew needs a tutor during the break .<\/p>\n
Its not like shes needed right now , right ? I clenched my fists.<\/p>\n
He was missing the point as usual .<\/p>\n
Judy must have figured Id be here , so she came to see me .<\/p>\n
Shes playing it off like that wasnt the case but thats the only explanation I have .noveldrama<\/p>\n
She was playing a dangerous game .<\/p>\n
