Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Chapter 0019 I I assure you my relationship with Ethan is over .

Im only interested in my job as Matts tutor .

I thrive on professionalism , and I promise to remain ethnically loyal , I told him , well aware that I was rambling , but I couldnt help myself .

He intimidated me .

He stared at me for a heartbeat , making me even more nervous .

Rest assured that no lines will ever be crossed , 1 added .

istone And what about me ? He asked ; he didnt sound condescending .

He had more of a boyish curiosity in his and his gaze was almost soft .

My heart skipped a beat , and felt my cheeks heating .

No lines will ever be crossed with you as well , I promised him sincerely .

Gavin was silent for a moment as he assessed me and then he gave me a short nod I hope you can remember to honor that , he said , almost daring I was about to reply , but the waitress returned with our wine .

Gavin then switched the subject to my schedule , and we agreed upon a schedule that worked for us both .

Then , he took out the contract and placed it on the table .

He stated that the contract was just a formality about employment and salary .

Its also stated that you arent to tell anyone who you work for , he continued .

Its for safety .

Yours and mine .

I make all my staff agree to the same terms .

I nodded ; it made sense , so I didnt argue .

He handed me a pen and after I looked over the contract , I filled in my basic information and signed each line he pointed at Soon after , the waitress returned with our food .

This looks delicious , I said before taking my first bite of the delicious salad .

Gavin got a rare steak with mashed potatoes and roasted veggies .

We both ate in silence and gradually sipped on our wine .

When I was just about done , I could feel the wine had gone right through me .

I need to use the restroom , I told him as I slid out of the booth .

Ill be back .

He nodded and I took off towards the bathroom , walking by a stunning woman with auburn hair and the most dazzling green eyes I had ever seen .

As I walked by her , she brushed her shoulder against mine , making me pause .

I briefly wondered if she did that on purpose ; she didnt even apologize ! 1 brushed the thought out of my head though and quickly went to the bathroom .

When I returned , I noticed that Gavin was now standing , and his arms were folded across his chest .noveldrama

He was speaking to the woman who bumped me a few minutes ago .

She looked upset with him and when I approached , I heard her words clearly .

So , this is why you havent called me back ? Because you been with another hussy ?? Thats enough , Daisy , he said , his voice low and threatening .

Just answer the question , Gavin .

Are you seeing her ? She asked , hurt evident in her tone .

Gavins eyes flickered to me as if he could sense that I was nearby .

Without answering her , he walked over to me .

My eyes grew large as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders and pulled me close .

I was immediately entranced by his scent and warmth ; electricity flared across my flesh from his touch , his face Chapter 0019 buried against the nape of my neck .

The woman , Daisys , eyes followed him , and she looked utterly pissed .

And if I am ? Gavin asked ; I could feel his breath against my cheek and my heart hammered wildly in my chest .

Youll soon tire of her , Daisy sneered , folding her arms across her chest .

You always do and then you come crawling back to me .

How long do you plan on being the third wheel on our date ? Gavin asked .

My breath hitched from his words , Daisy scowled .

This isnt over , she muttered before giving me a nasty look and storming off .

As soon as she was out of sight , Gavin released me .

I nearly fell to the ground from how weak my legs were .

I could hardly speak as Gavin walked back to the table and resumed his food as if nothing had happened W …what was that ? I stammered breathlessly , hating how weak I sounded .

Gavin glanced at me and shrugged a shoulder .

That was Daisy , he murmured .

Shes a noble Lycan and my late wifes sister .

I was stunned by his remark .

Oh , I managed to say .

My mother has been wanting to pair us together as a second chance for me , he continued .

I didnt want to reject her too bluntly .

Im sorry for using you like that .

My cheeks were still on fire and Im sure he noticed but he didnt mention anything about it .

I nodded in reply and said nothing more .

We finished our meals and Gavin paid .

Gavin had the driver take us back to my house and I thanked him for the meal and the job before I got out of the car and walked to the door .

The car remained until I was inside and then I could hear it driving off .

I let out a breath I hadnt known I was holding .

But the slight relief didnt last long because I could hear my mother speaking to someone in the living room .

The minute I reached the entryway , my entire body froze when saw who was sitting on the couch , chatting away y with my mother .
