Nan was seated on the couch in the far side of the room and Chester’s eyes widened.
“Ladies have a couch in their bathroom?” Chester asked, amazed. He shut the door behind him and locked it so they wouldn’t be disturbed.
Nan didn’t bother retorting; she stared at her hands thankful that the tears finally stopped flowing so Chester didn’t see how broken she was over this whole thing. Little did she know, he could feel it.
He stepped closer to her, wanting to give her space and yet wanting to close the distance between them with a desperation he didn’t understand.
“Nan…” he finally said, his tone soft and filled with compassion. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean for any of that to happen. She won’t be a problem for you anymore, you have my word.”
Nan glanced up at him and his heart broke when he saw that her eyes were red with unshed tears.
“She knew so much about you, Chester. You love her—”
“NO,” he said quickly as he stepped closer to her. “I’ve known her for a long time, that’s why she knows so much. But I don’t, nor have I ever, loved her. She was saying what she believed to be true, but it wasn’t how I felt.”
“She’s never going to leave you alone…” Nan whispered, tears starting to spill down her cheeks.
He sat down on the couch beside her and took her face in his hands, wiping away the tears with his thumbs.
“You have my word, Nan. She won’t be a problem anymore. I’m so sorry our first date was ruined. I’m sorry this happened. But I promise you, it won’t happen again. Please, don’t hate me…”
There was desperation in his voice, and she found herself drawn to his sincerity. She closed her eyes, letting more tears fall and he wiped them each with his thumbs.
“Why does this have to be so hard?” She whispered. “I thought it’d be easy once I found my mate…”
He let out a soft chuckle.
“Yeah, I don’t think there’s anything easy about mating,” he murmured. “But I want to give this a chance… a real chance. Please, don’t close the door on us just yet.”
She sniffled and nodded her head once.
“Okay,” she whispered. “I won’t close the door.”
Relief flooded him as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his chest. She was surprised by the gesture, but the moment her head touched his chest, she melted into him, feeling at ease for once in her life. He felt himself melting as well, loving the feel of her in his arms.
“Can we go somewhere else?” He asked. “Maybe a walk. I’m done with this place.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
Anyone Know where we Can Read all of this book 2 chapters a day is a joke And waiting is killing me I’ll just want to end this book !!...
I never really read these books, but came across this one and annoyingly got hooked. Do these books just go on forever with no resolution? As if so, I’m going to call it a day and write my own ending lol...
Lovely… I just found this book Friday and I’ve finished all that here. How often do they release more and how much at a time?! I’m invested....
So Spencer was “in love” before he even meet her? I used to wake up and read this book but now I let days go past before I read the chapters...
Well heres to the next 300 pages of this never ending story because now Gavin is going to have to save her before Spencer does something even more stupid because Judy is to weak to do anything for herself apparently....
3 chapters we didn't need. Already guessed Spencer was working with Levi and that the attacks were also Levi...
I think of all the things that bother me the most about the rushed writing is the inconsistencies. Judy and Nans room number was initially 606 when they checked in at the island resort for the Gamma Competition, but then was suddemly 906 - which turned out to be needed information later. When they first met, Judy went to Gavin's office the next day and told him about her father's imprisonment and her need for money, but then later the author made it sound like Gavin had no idea. She won 5 million for takimg first in the competition but then it was eluded to her not have much money and needed cash from the additional tutoring job with Lukas and the position in Levi's elite force. Honestly, the wishy-washy writing makes it feel like Gavin is less of a strong leader and more like he has so much personal drama he cant keep anything straight. It feels like Judy is weaker than the author has intended, as well. I feel like Rachel's return could have been tightened up with more details around her time Gavin instead of making Judy out to be a bit pathetic and desperate for just a sliver of Gavins attention. Her pregnancy was also disappointing because of the rushed plot, the author seemed to have forgotten that Judy gave her virginity to Gavin and no other sexual partners were introduced for her - so who the father of her baby was shouldn't have felt like such a surprise - it felt a bit insulting to her vibe and the character build throughout the hundreds of unnecessary chapters. I believe if the author spent a little more time and cleaned up some of the events with pertinent and necessary details and remove the oddities of over-the-top pieces (like the shower gel and cologne that appeared out of nowhere for Gavin in Judy's condo) this storyline could really be something great and intriguing for readers....
