She put her seatbelt on, and I did the same. Then, she put the car in drive and drove off toward Gavin’s Villa.
“I’m sorry if my brother is too much,” she said after a beat of silence. “He’s chased off every tutor he’s ever had. I’m not sure what’s wrong with that boy.”
“He seems great to me,” I told her honestly. “I honestly think he just craves attention and will get it any way that he can. With Gavin being a busy Lycan chairman and Alpha of his own pack, and you being… engaged… I think he feels a bit lonely.”
I stumbled when I said the word “engaged“, it was weird talking to Irene about this, but she didn’t seem to notice my hesitation.
“I suppose I have been preoccupied with this wedding,” she sighed. “I just love Ethan so much that spending any time away from him is upsetting to both me and my wolf.”
I blanched at her words; I definitely did not want to talk about this with her. But then something she said caught my attention.
“Your wolf?” I asked her.
She let out a small laugh.
“Yeah; don’t get me wrong, we both know that Ethan is not our fated mate, but he’s been so sweet and tentative towards us since the day we met that it doesn’t even matter. My wolf claimed him as ours and I would have to agree with her.”
I felt sick to my stomach hearing her confession. I stared at my hands, not sure what to say. She seemed to have sensed this because she glanced at me as we stopped at a traffic light.
“Have you ever been in love?”
I was startled by her question and when I looked up at her, saw her watching me with a small frown on her lips and curiosity on her face. I didn’t want to lie to her, but couldn’t tell her the whole truth either. If I did, it would make this weird, hurt her, and it would ruin my chances at this job.
“I thought so,” 1 admitted. “But he didn’t love me in the same way.”
I could see a flash of sadness in her eyes. The honk coming from the car behind us alerted Irene that the light was now green. She pressed the gas, and we continued towards the Villa; I could see it in the distance. It was large and gorgeous. We neared the pack borders, and the Silver Creserit pack guards didn’t bother stopping us, recognizing Irene’s signature car. They bowed their heads at her and she gave them a polite smile as she drove past them and onto Gavin’s parklands.
“He’s an idiot for not loving you,” Irene told me after a bear of silence. “You seem like a great girl and any guy would be lucky to have you.”
I didn’t respond to her kind words; I stared out the window and watched the buildings and trees pass by. It didn’t take long to reach the villa. Irene parked the car and we boll got dut.

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
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....

You can tell this book was written by a man trying to think like a woman. There are so many plot holes and loose ends. They’re clearly dragging it on way more than they should as a money grab. And now we’re in for probably 50 more chapters while they hunt her down. I’m sure someone will end up drugged and SA’d by the end of it. So frustrating that we’re reading in circles. I’m out....
Same! Short chapters going backwards now!...
Is he a spy though? or is this gonna be a Fatal attraction? He wants to mark her for himself, & she's going to have to try to escape.. but dies she have her wolf still, i forget...
Girl Im dropping this shit 🥰...
