Chapter 0055
“I’ve known you for a while, Judy. You can’t bullshit me.”
“What do you expect me to say, Ethan? That I’m not okay? That my mother is depressed and barely eats? Isn’t this what you wanted? For me to suffer? So why are you acting like you care right now when we both know you don’t!”
“Judy!” My mother shrieked from the doorway, her eyes large and alert. “How dare you speak to him like that!”
“Mom…”
“He’s
going to be our Alpha, and he deserves our respect,” my mother continued to scold.
“It’s okay, Mrs. Montague. How about you go and sit on the couch? I’ll cook you some dinner,” Ethan offered.

My mother beamed at him; the first smile I had seen from her in a while. Ethan always had a way bringing that out of her.
“How very thoughtful of you, Ethan,” she said sweetly. “Thank you.”
She gave me another look before she turned and left the kitchen. I spun around on my heel to glare at
him.
“What are you doing?” I asked him, my tone dry.
“Despite what you might think, I actually care about your mother and it’s hard to see her like this. It’s hard to see you like this too, Judy. Go into the living room and spend time with her. I’ll cook you both dinner and then afterward we can talk.”
I furrowed my brows at him, trying to figure out the gamme he was playing. But I was too exhausted to think too much about it, so I sighed and walked out of the kitchen. I didn’t bother telling him that I already ate dinner because then he would just ask me innecessary questions.
My mother was curled up on the couch, staring at a picture of my father with tears in her eyes. I saw beside her, and she was startled at my presence.
“Why can’t you just do what he wants so we can get your father back?” She asked me, taking me by surprise.
I looked at her in disbelief; if only she knew what it was he was asking me to do.
“Because we don’t need his help, Mom,” I told her for the hundredth time. “I have us covered.”
“How? That tutoring job is hardly enough to pay off your father’s debt,” my mother told me, her voice pleading. “We need him to come home, Judy.”
I covered my mother’s hands with mine, trying to provide her with some type of comfort.
“And he will,” I assured her. “I promise.”
Not before long, the room was filled with the scent of garlic from the pasta sauce. Had Ethan made pasta

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
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 🥰...
I cannot read this anymore; and these short chapters that doesn’t even give anything concrete. How ridiculous!...
