Chapter 437 Gavin's POV The last person I ever expected to see here was my mother. I stared blankly at her for a long while as her eyes darted betweenand Judy.
Judy stood frozen beside me, now a fair distance fromand it took everything I had not to reach out and brought her back into my arms, holding her tight and not letting her go. But I restrained myself because my mother was standing in front oflooking atlike had just slapped her. I hadn't spoken to my mother since she tried to setup with Daisy for the hundredth time. That was almost a month ago. Now as she stood in front of me, I knew there were going to be questions that I would need to answer, but right now, I was on a date, and she needed to respect that.
"I wasn't expecting to see you here," I told her, raising my brows. "I didn't think fairs were your thing." "I could say the sto you," she said, folding her arms across her chest. "I would ask you what influenced you to cto a place like this... but I see the answer is standing right beside you. It's nice to see you again, Judy." Nice to see you again.

She was finding it hard to keep her gaze from wandering over to my mother. She was staring at the ground, nibbling on her lower lip, a nervous habit I started to understand she does.
"It's good to see you too" she murmured, though I knew that was a lie. I could tell from the way Judy was avoiding her gaze, and her cheeks were flushing that their last encounter was not a pleasant one.
"I wasn't aware you two knew one another," I said bluntly, trying to get one of them to talk and explain themselves.
"Oh yes. We met at the Whimsical Whisk the other day," my mother explained. "We exchanged spleasantries in passing." My jaw clenched; I knew the look my mother had on her face. Their exchange was anything but pleasant wanted to drill her and find out exactly what was said, but I kept my mouth sealed. I would ask Judy about it later and get the details. As of now, I needed to get Judy away from her because she looked as if she was about to pass out at any moment.
"Oh, Gavin. It's great to see you," another voice said, stepping beside my mother.
I froze when I saw Daisy; she handed my mother a bottle of water and turned to face us, a smile lighting up her face but then it faltered when she saw Judy standing by my side.
"And Judy... I shouldn't be surprised to see you hanging onto his arm like a lost puppy," Daisy remarked, narrowing her eyes at Judy.
"That's enough," I said, stepping in front of Judy to block her view of them and their view of her. I wasn't going to let them ridicule her and embarrass her. "What are you two doing here? This isn't Landry owned soffigured you had no business here." "Can't we just go to a fair because we enjoy it?" Daisy asked, raising her brows. "I happen to love roller coasters and cotton candy." I couldn't help but roll my eyes at her words and then I turned back to my mother.

"We are here to enjoy ourselves, just like you are. It's a complete coincidence that we all happen to be here at the stime." "The firework display is about to
begin," Daisy said to my mother. "We should go and get good seats. We see you later, Gavin She started to walk past as she brushed past Judy and paused. "It was so good to see you again, Judy. I do hope we can talk again soon."
My mother also started to leave, but not before givinga quick hug and a peck on the cheek. She turned to on the ot Swor Judy and I swore I saw Judy flinching as if she expected my mother to strike her or something. "I'll see you soon," she vowed before she turned and started to follow Daisy away.
I stared after them, a scowl on my lips as they disappeared through the crowd. Once they were out of sight, I turned to look at Judy who was pale En in the face. Her breathing had gotten a lot worse and for a second, I thought she was about to have a panic attack. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
