I followed after him.
“That’s it? No feedback?”
“You didn’t do anything feedback-worthy.”
I was stunned by his words and completely infuriated.
“Are you kidding me?” I nearly shouted. “I stayed here all night and remained awake.”
“That’s the bare minimum,” he murmured without looking at me. “You want me to praise you for not falling asleep at your post? You should have gotten proper rest so it wouldn’t be an issue in the first place.”
I grabbed his arm, trying to stop him from walking away.
“I stayed awake because I was waiting for you!” It was half the truth; it was also because of the Nan situation, but he didn’t need to know that.
He whipped around to growl at me, and I quickly withdrew my hand as if he had just burned me.
“You shouldn’t let anyone, not even me, keep you from performing well,” he said through his teeth. “You not sleeping is on you, not me. Don’t put that on me.”
He turned and started to walk again; my heart cracked hearing his words.
I didn’t bother going back to the gym where most were gathering.
Instead, I started to head towards the suite. I just needed to get some sleep and clear my head. I’ve had enough bullshit for a little while.
As I reached the elevator, I ran into Sammy, who smiled pleasantly at me.
“Hey, how was watch duty?” She asked as I waited for the elevator doors to open.
“Exhausting,” I admitted. “I spent the whole night with Gavin.” The words were out of my mouth before I could stop them, but I was too tired to take them back and rephrase what I meant, so I just left them in the air.
She can think whatever she wants. It didn’t really matter anymore, anyway.
She frowned and tilted her head at my words.
“Oh,” she breathed. “He was the Lycan on your watch last night?”
I nodded.
“Are you sure it was his room?” I asked; my stomach was in complete knots.
“Room 609, right?” She asked. “My boyfriend's room is nearby, so I was walking by when I saw her. I’ve seen him leave that room before, so unless that’s her room…”
“No, that’s his,” I said a little too sharply.
I didn’t bother explaining how I knew that with such certainty, the look on her face showed that she understood.
“Maybe it’s nothing?” She said thoughtfully.
I nodded, hating that tears were threatening to spill out of my eyes.
“Thank you for telling me, Sammy. You’re a good friend,” I told her as I headed back to the elevator.
“Are you upset/?” She asked, calling after me.
I didn’t bother replying; I stepped into the elevator and allowed it to take me to my floor. The second the elevator shut, the tears slipped out of my eyes and down my cheeks.

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
Is there something missing between the last two chapters??...
I need more 😭😭😭2 chapters is a tease😂...
update pls......
Please I'm begging you, and I'm addicted to this book emotionally....
Hey my name is Adelaide I'm from South Africa. Please write more chapters I really want to know if Levi will be able to threaten Gavins company and what will happen with him and Judy and the baby....
yes yes I love this story...
yes voicemails I agree and please more chapters it's so interesting...
Is the author on our side? “I wanted to call Nan and Irene and tell them what was happening, but that would mean admitting that I’m pregnant with Gavin’s baby, and I’d rather skip that part. I wanted to talk to someone who already knew that part of the story, so I didn’t have to repeat it.”...
Oh for goodness sake let them both find out already. We’ll need at least 8 chapters probably 20 for his POV, her POV, her to listen to the voicemails and realise she’s had it wrong all this time and more of each side having their own POV on a single sentence...
Hmmmm...
