Chapter 0230 Judys POV A … are you serious right now ?? Harper asked , taken aback by Chesters words .
He nodded and sighed .
Yes , Harper .
Im sorry , he murmured , and then he walked past her and back inside .
Harper stood frozen , her face red with anger and hurt all at the same time .
My heart hurt for her ; I knew how much she liked Chester .
I could see it on her face every time that he was around .
I knew how much it hurt for the guy you liked to not want you back… or to give you up so easily .
But I couldnt help but wonder if Nan was okay .
Im sorry … I told Harper , not sur what more to say .
I just dont get it … she whispered , staring down at her feet .
Everything was fine .
Then that girl walked in and … her voice trailed off .
you her ? think they are seeing each other ? I know Chester went on a date the other day .noveldrama
Could that be I shook my head ; Nan would have told me if she went on a date with a man .
She would have told me all about it .
The fact that she hadnt mentioned it makes me wonder what this story was .
Im not too sure , Harper , I settled on saying .
Harper nodded and sniffed back her tears before she turned her back towards me .
Im just going to go inside .
If you need anything … Ill be in my room , she murmured .
Without another word , she walked into the mansion .
I stared after her for a brief while before I sighed and grabbed my phone out of my pocket .
I glanced at the screen , seeing that I had no .
Missed calls or texts .
Now I was doubt disappointed ; I was upset that Gavin hadnt reached out to me , but I was also upset that Nan hadnt texted me after she left to tell me that she was okay .
I brought up her contact and pressed the phone to my cheek .
It rang several times before I got her voicemail .
Hey , Nan .
Please call me , I said to her voicemail box Im worried about you … I added before I hung up .
Sighing , I walked back inside .
The mansion had gone quiet , and the kitchen was now completely empty .
I knew Chester had turned in for the night .
This whole thing was getting to my head and I just wanted to get some sleep .
After several deep breaths , I turned away , turned off the bathroom light , and stepped into my room .
It was lonely without Gavin .
I had started to get used to him spending his nights here even if it was out of the ordinary at first .
I checked my phone one last time and saw no missed texts or calls .
I sighed and tried calling Nan again , but I got her voicemail … again .
I put my phone on the charger , placing it on my nightstand before I crawled into bed .
I hated being alone right now … I wished I could reach out to Gavin , but I knew he was busy .
I wished I could get a hold of Nan … but she refused to answer my calls .
I had no idea what was going on , but I hoped that I could figure it out in the morning .
It took a while , but eventually , I was able to drift off to sleep .
When I woke the next morning , I felt restless and a bitnumb .
I grabbed my phone to see if I had a missed call and my heart skipped a beat when I saw a text message from Gavin .
It was sent early this morning .
I bit my lower lip as I opened the message .
