The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 154

Chapter 0154 I … I apologize , Taylor said , lowering his gaze .

It was an oversight , and It wont happen again .

Ill make sure its fixed by the end of today .

What good does that do me now ?? Gavin asked , turning to face him fully , his eyes red with fury .noveldrama

My son was poisoned , and we have no camera footage showing us who was responsible .

Ill do what I can to investigate , Taylor assured him The good news is Matt is alive .

If I was a second later- But you werent , Taylor said , stopping his thought process .

You have to think on the positive side .

Gavins back was tense , and he released a shuttering breath that shook his broad shoulders .

Find out what you can , Gavin said , after a beat of silence .

Yes , sir , Beta Taylor said , nodding .

He glanced at me , giving me a wary look before retreating from the room , leaving me alone with a very fuming Gavin .

I wasnt sure what to say ; my entire body was trembling as I watched Gavin pace back and forth like he was on the hunt , and I was his prey .

He was looking everywhere but me though and it unsettled me even more .

The Gavin I was starting to know was nowhere to be found ; now he was just a giant ball of fury , and it left me feeling sick to my stomach .

He finally paused and looked at me , his eyes shining with difference .

You were careless with my sons life , he said through his teeth , his eyes narrowed .

Gavin- Alpha ! He roared .

I trembled and lowered my gaze .

.

Alpha … I repeated , my voice coming out with a breathy whisper .

I dont know what happened .

I- What happened was my son was fed peanut butter , and he had an allergic reaction .

I trusted you to care .

for him and you let me down .

No , I- Are you telling me you did ! Are you telling me you didnt hand him the sandwich with peanut butter ? Im saying I didnt know there was peanut butter in it … I said , tears spilling out of my cheeks .

He scoffed , curling his lips up in disgust and making the knot in my stomach tighten .

It was your job to check for these things before allowing him to consume anything , Gavin said slowly like I was incompetent of understanding him .

I opened my mouth to speak , not sure what to say , but knowing I had to say something to calm him , but he cut me off with his harsh tone .

Im not very hungry , I murmured .

She sighed and stepped into my room , shutting the door behind her .

I know you are upset about this move , she began gently .

But you have to understand , Im doing whats best for our family .

Once your father is out of prison and we are back on our feet , we can get a new house and move out of the Cash family mansion .

I just need you to be a little patent .

As upset as I was about this move , it was nothing compared to how upset I was because of Gavins distrust in me .

I wanted to see Matt in the hospital … I called the hospital the other day and asked if he was awake and able to have visitors , but as soon as I gave them my name , they told me I wasnt allowed to visit him and to not call again , right before they hung up on me .

Gavin wont take any of my calls and Irene blocked my number completely .

I was so lost … and I wasnt sure what I was going to do .

Come on , sweetie , my mom said , putting her hand on my back .

Lets get some food and then we can discuss what our lives will look like in the upcoming weeks .

I knew what our lives were going to look like … they were going to look like hell .
