Chapter 0079
“Sorry, what were you saying, Darling?”
Her frown deepened.
“I’m going inside with Matt,” she snapped, her eyes dark with anger. She turned away and started to walk inside with Matt beside her. Ethan’s face paled when he realized his mistake.
“I think you should go after her, lover boy,” I said, folding my arms across my chest.
He didn’t humor me with a response, but he quickly ran after her, attempting to explain himself. I shook my head at their retreating backs.
“Why do I get the feeling there’s history between the two of you?” Walter asked, turning my attention to him. If Gavin saw us talking alone together, he would be furious. I honestly thought Walter went back inside while Ethan and I were having that stare–down. I was surprised and maybe even a little startled to see that he was still here with me.
Even though I just met him, there was a part of me that trusted Walter. But I didn’t think I should tell him the truth about Ethan and me because I’m not sure how close he was to Irene. Telling from what I saw in the parlor earlier, with the two of them laughing and hugging, I would say they are very close.
“There’s not,” I lied. “He’s just Irene’s fiancé. I never really talk to him.”
He cocked his head to the side as if he was trying to read my thoughts and then he nodded, not asking further questions about Ethan and me.
“I’m sorry if I made things weird between you and your boss,” he told me, kicking the dirt on the ground like he was a small child who just got scolded. “He can be intense.”
“That’s an understatement,” I teased. “You don’t need to apologize, Walter. You didn’t do anything wrong”
He shrugged and then lifted his gaze to meet mine.
“I hope he didn’t scare you away from me though,” he said softly.
I raised my brows at him; not sure what he meant.
“Wasn’t it you that he threatened?” I asked.
“He can take away whatever he wants,” Walter murmured. “I never wanted to be an Alpha. It’s what my father wanted for me. I just want to run my business and continue to expand. All the money that I have has been earned by me. I am wealthy because of my successes, not because of the Landry fortune. Uncle Gavin can’t truly take anything away from me.
“I fear that’s not true, Walter. He’s a Lycan Chairmen and you know the Lycan’s rule over the werewolf population,” I reminded him. “Your uncle has all the power in the world.”
“I’d like to see him try,” Walter murmured, folding his arms across his chest.
I frowned at him as I went to collect my belongings. I grabbed my phone out of my bag to check my text messages, ignoring the weight of Walter’s gaze on me as I did so. I was about to put my phone back in

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!...
