Chapter 0217 Gavin's POV I stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel, wrapping it around my waste. By the tI left the bathroom, Judy wasn't in bed anymore. I frowned at the messy bed and glanced around the room; my brows furrowed. I hadn't even realized she was awake I grabbed my clothes and quickly put them on, not bothering to do anything with my wet hair. I left the bedroom and went down the stairs, only to see Harper walking around the corner.
"Is Judy in the kitchen?" I asked as I adjusted my shirt into my pants.
Harper glanced up atwith a frown.
"No, Alpha. She said she had to get to school early this morning and left," Harper explained, halting my steps.
I turned to look at her, my eyes narrowed.
"She left?" "Yes, sir," Harper answered before she turned and hurried away. A low growl escaped my throat; how could Judy just leave like that? She didn't even say anything toabout it. I wondered if she mentioned something to that Chester character. I couldn't stand Chester; I'm not sure why I've kept him around. He's always been like this... a flirt. He cares more about making the women around him melt than he does his actual job.
Even though I had to admit, he was pretty good at his job too. His food was always delicious, and it was the one thing I looked forward to when I cto this section of the pack. Well, it wasn't until Judy started to live here.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe kitchen smelled amazing when I walked in and I wasn't surprised to see Chester behind the counter, cooking away and making his kitchen aids chuckle with his witty banter and smooth words.
I rolled my eyes.
"Stop flirting with your coworkers," I said as I walked in, making him freeze.
When he glanced over his shoulder at me, he flasheda smile.
"Sorry, Alpha. I can't help myself. Maybe you shouldn't have hired such beautiful women to work for you," he said, winking.
I rolled my eyes, knowing exactly what he was doing; made the women in the kitchen swoon and their knees buckle.
"I don't pay you to flirt," I muttered, sitting at the counter. “I hired you to cook." "Can't I do both?" He asked.
"Don" "Don't you have a thing with Harper?" I asked, narrowing my eyes, and making him frown.
I'm sure he wasn't expecting I would know about that make it a point to know everything about +25 BONUS Chapter 0212 everything. I see the way Harper looked at him and on more than one occasion I would hear them in the supply closet, or in his bedroom while I was walking by. I also noticed the glant hickey Harper was sporting... I wasn't an idiot.
"We are friends with benefits," he murmured. "She knows what this is..." I didn't believe him; if the way Harper looked at him on the daily was any indication, I would think she was head over heels in love with the fool. He was brealding her heart and soon, she would probably quit because working in the sspace as someone who broke your heart is nearly impossible.
I shook my head at him.
"This is why you don't mess with your coworkers," I muttered.
He looked a bit awkward, but he said nothing more as he turned away and finished cooking breakfast. He plated the food and slid it across the counter and into my direction.
"Is Judy coming down soon?" He asked.
I frowned and shook my head; I thought he would have known she left already. I guess I got the answer to my question.
"Nok, she left early this morning," I answered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe stared atblankly for a moment.
"Without any food?" He asked. "Why would she leave so quickly without even saying good morning to me? That doesn't sound like her." "Harper said she had to get to school early and was running late or something," I said, taking a bite of the food. It was delicious and I hated how good it was; but damn it, he was phenomenal at his job.
"She spoke to Harper and not me?" Chester asked, sounding offended.
"Yes," I answered. "She is her handmaiden after all. You are only her chef. She doesn't need to report to you." Chester folded his arms around his chest and stared at me.
"Well, seeming you got this information from Harper, think it's safe to assshe didn't tell you. either, Alpha," he retorted.
I glanced up at him and saw that he was smirking. Normally I would have ripped someone's head off fan m speaking tlike this, but honestly, Chester sort of madelaugh. I wasn't going to show it though, so I bit the inside of my cheek and glared at him. After a moment, he cleared his throat and pointed at the sink.
"I should probably clean those," he said awkwardly.
"You think?" I nearly barked.
The second he turned his back, I let my guard down and smiled, shaking my head.
After I finished eating, I left the mansion to go straight to my Villa. The filming should be wrapped up Chapter 0217 +25 BONUS
any day now and I'll finally have that space to myself again. I had been avoiding Skyla ever since she kissedand let the press think something was going on between us.
