NovelEnglishChapter 507 Judy's POV My entire body was frigid as I heard what this woman...a woman I had never even heard of before, saying that Gavin was in the shower. My entire body shook, and I could feel my heart shattering in my chest. I barely registered her words next because I was so numb from the inside out.
My hearing had faded, and all that was left was justinside the little bubble I created around myself.
I pressed the "end call" button as she was speaking and I shoved my phone back into my pocket, not wanting to hear what more she had to say.
I'm not sure how I ended up outside of the student lounge; my body was working on overdrive, and I wasn't in control anymore. I felt paralyzed as the world passed around me, swallowinginto a black abyss. I didn't realize where I was until I heard Nan's voice from beside me.
"Judy, what's wrong?" She asked, studying my pale face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI looked at her... really looked at her. I saw the worry lingering in her eyes and the way the corner of her lip tipped down into a concerned frown. Her brows were pinched together as she stared at me, the question lingering on her lips as I thought about what to say to her.
I felt so stupid; here I was, thinking this guy might actually like me... thinking he had developed genuine feelings foras I had him... but instead he was off with another woman, playing house with her... letting her answer his phone... taking her on dates...ignoringand wondering what it was I did wrong.
I didn't realize that I was crying until Nan wrappedin her arms and pulledinto a tight hug.
"It's okay," she whispered, but I didn't feel like things were okay. I felt like I was breaking apart, and there was nobody around to pick up the pieces. My wolf was whimpering and howling inside of me, feeling and feeding off my pain, matching it with her own. "Tellwhat happened, Judy. Please... I hate seeing you like this." "I called Gavin..." I heard myself whisper. "And another woman answered." She let out a breath and closed her eyes as she continued to hug"That asshole," she whispered. "He doesn't deserve you if that's how he's going to treat you. Just because he's a Lycan, he thinks he can play with your emotions. It's not fair." At that point, my phone chimed. I pulled out of her arms and glanced at my phone, sighing.
"Who is it?" She asked, eyeingcarefully.
"Beta Taylor is here to pickup," I muttered.
'Not Erik?" She asked with raised brows.
She knew Erik was my typical driver that Gavin appointeda while back, and when it wasn't Erik pickingup, typically it would have been Gavin Taylor only pickedup if he needed to takesomewhere specific or in emergency situations. But this past week or so, it's been him picking up from school and bringinghome. Even when I wasn't tutoring Matt, it was still Taylor who pickedup.
"I have to go," I told her, my heart heavy as I walked towards the parking lot.
Nan watchedgo, shouting forto call her later. I didn't bother responding; my body was numb, and the words failed to leave my lips.
As I stepped out into the parking lot, I spotted his car almost right away. I got into the backseat, settling myself before my eyes found Taylor's. He was looking atthrough the mirror with a curious gaze, and when he noticedstaring back, he quickly returned his attention to the front, his eyes fixed on the road.
He pulled away from the school without another word, pulling onto the main road and driving towards the Redmoon pack lines.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Have you talked to Gavin?" I asked him, surprised that my voice sounded stronger than I felt.
He glanced atthrough the mirror again, and I couldn't decipher the look in his eyes.
"I have," he murmured, without offering much more information. "He's been busy with a new project for the Landry Corporation." I nodded, not believing a word he was saying.
"Does he have any new business partners or mone working with I asked, He was quiet for a long while; his jaw was ticking, and he clenched and unclenched it. He finally glanced atthrough the mirror.
"That's not forto say," he admitted, his voice coming out softer than I thought it would. "It's probably better if you spoke to him directly." "I would if he'd talk to me," I muttered.
Beta Taylor looked as if he was about to say something else, but before he could, my phone: Aggravated by ne started toring, m the the interruption, I huffed as I pulled my phone out of my pocket. I saw Irene's non the screen and big my lips as I answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Judy! I need your help," Irene practically shouted into the phone! "It's Emalyo.. she's sick. She won't ΕΠ stop crying. Please hurry!" She hung up without another word, leaving my stomach in knots. I looked at Taylor, who was still focused on the road, his mind a thousand miles away.
