NovelEnglishChapter 0068 Judy's POV I could not believe I actually agreed to this. I stared at myself in the mirror with a frown. I was wearing a female business suit that seemed to have ageda few years. Matt was right when he said that I could pull off being his mother. For a moment, I had doubts that I could be too young, and the teachers would never fall for it. But those doubts slipped away when I grabbed one of my mother's business attires and slipped it on. I glanced at the clock and sighed; I only had a few minutes before my Uber arrived and tookto Matt's school. I wasn't even sure what it was he did that got him in trouble. I should have asked so I could better prepare my response. It had to be the response of a parent though; I had to be angry with him and give him a stern talking to. I ran my fingers through my hair, wondering if maybe I should put my hair in a low ponytail instead of leaving it down. I swallowed the lump in my throat and shook my head; no... if I can't pull off being his mother, then my next bet is to seduce the teacher. Or so Nan would tellif I were to tell her what I was up to today. The honking outside indicated that my Uber was there I took a deep breath before giving myself one more look in the mirror. Satisfied with my attire, I grabbed my purse off my bed, shouldered it, and quickly left the room. I was surprised that my mother was in the living room when I got downstairs; and even more surprised when I saw that she was sipping on a cup of coffee. When she saw me, she gavea small smile and motioned for the kitchen with her head. "I brewed scoffee if you'd like some," she offered "You brewed the coffee yourself?" I asked. She raised her brows at me. "I'm capable of brewing coffee, Judy," she told me, her tone flat. 1 blinked a few times. “I didn't mean it like that, Mom. I just meant you haven't really been up to doing anything lately is all," I told her. "I'm glad you're out of bed." "I figured it's tthat I start making schanges in my life and I can't do that if I'm stuck in my room all day, can I?" She asked, taking another sip of her coffee. I smiled and walked around the couch to hug her. As I wrapped my arms around her, her body seemed to have stiffened. But it only lasted a moment because soon she was relaxing and resting her head on my shoulder. Then she lifted her head to look atwith a frown. "Are you wearing my clothes?" She asked. I swallowed and gave her an awkward laugh. +25 BONUS Chapter 0068 "I have an interview," I lied. “I needed something professional to wear." "Would this job be good paying?" She asked. I nodded. “Maybe even enough to pay off Dad's debt," I told her. Her face lit up. “I have a meeting with his lawyers today to discuss sother options they may have found," she told me. "I'll keep you posted on what I find out." I nodded. and w "I'll be ha little later can talk then," I assured her. The honking outside grew more constant and I knew if I didn't go outside right now, the Uber driver would drive away without me. "I have ot go," I told her, kissing her cheek. "I love you." "I love you, Judy," she said thoughtfully. I quickly ran out of the house and into the backseat of the Uber. The ride was quiet as we reached the school and as the Uber driver parked, my anxiety only grew more intense. I thanked him and slipped out of the car. When I walked into the school, the halls were quiet. I assumed most students were in class. It didn't takelong to reach the main office because it was near the school's front entrance. The receptionist, a young blonde woman, was typing away on her computer, barely paying attention to anything going on around her. She barely spareda look as I stepped in front of her desk. I had to clear my throat a couple of times for her to acknowledgefinally. She sighed and lifted her gaze to meet mine. "Can I help you?" She asked, raising her perfectly trimmed brows. "Yes, I'm here to speak with the principal," I said, taking in the blonde in front of me. "And who might you be?" "Judy Landry," I lied. "I'm Matt's mom." She narrowed her eyes at me, takingin from my toes to my head before she let out a bark of laughter. She had to sit back in her seat and hold her stomach while she continued to laugh; my checks burned hot. She could see right throughbecause if I was Mrs. Landry, that meant I was married to Gavin Landry, and everybody knew that Gavin was an eligible bachelor and a playboy. I should have thought that through before speaking, but now that the lie was out there, I couldn't exactly take it back.
