Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 608

“I can’t seem to stay away from you,” he whispered, closing the small distance between our mouths, kissing me like his life depended on it. Our kiss was anything but soft and sweet; it was heavy and filled with so much pent-up need. I felt the warmth going straight to my core.

My mind went completely blank, and for a while, I completely forgot why I was upset in the first place. It wasn’t fair that he had this huge effect on me; that he could make me comply with a simple kiss. His hands were on my hips, pressing me against him, and I felt everything he was willing to offer me in that moment.

The worst part was… I wanted it. I wanted it so badly.

Or maybe he was showing me what I couldn’t have because he had given it to somebody else. The thought was like a slap in the face, and I pulled back; we were both breathless, and he didn’t let me go.

“Gavin I—”

“Don’t,” he said sharply, cutting me off.

I blinked at him, confused.

“What?”

“Don’t push me away,” he whispered, pressing his forehead against mine and closing his eyes.

“You chose someone else…” I whispered.

His eyes opened, and they were dark, swirling with something I didn’t recognize. His hand reached up and he gripped my chin, keeping my gaze on his.

“Who told you that I chose someone else?” He asked.

My brows furrowed.

“Uh… your fiancé,” I told him.

He narrowed his eyes.

“My what?”

“Stop playing stupid, Gavin,” I told him, trying to wiggle out of his grasp. “I know you and Rachel are engaged. Congratulations, by the way.”

Even I could hear the sarcasm and bitterness in my voice.

“What?” He asked, the confused look in his eyes darkening. “You think I’m engaged to her?”

I froze and looked up at him, my brows dipped low as my own confusion practically consumed me.

“Aren’t you?” I asked.

“What makes you think that?” He asked. “Who told you I was engaged to her?”

I stared at him, my eyes wide.

He cupped my face in his hands, his thumb tracing my upper cheekbones, spreading warmth throughout my body.

“Judy, I never touched her. The baby she’s carrying isn’t mine, and she’s not my fiancée. I’m banishing her.”

My jaw nearly dropped.

“You’re what?” I gasped.

“I’m banishing her,” he repeated. “She’s been working for someone as a spy. She was trying to trap me into marriage so she could take ownership of my company. I’ve spent weeks gathering evidence, but I couldn’t let her think I was on to her, or she would bolt, so I played the part. I’m sorry if that hurt you, but I never thought you’d leave.”

My breathing grew shaky as realization dawned on me.

“She… she told me you proposed to her…” I whispered.

Had I been deceived?

A sad expression crossed his face.

“She lied to you…”
