Chapter 65
Ethan nodded , his eyes dark and I could see that he was pissed , but he was biting his tongue .
Yes , Alpha , he rasped out .
He quickly left the parlor and went into the kitchen .
Judy stood her ground , her eyes finding mine , searching for something … but I wasnt sure what .
Are you proud of yourself ? I asked her ; I couldnt help but look at her with disgust .
Was that your goal ? To prove that you still had him in the palm of your hand ? She blinked at me .
30 Are you serious ? She asked , raising her brows .
I didnt ask for that to happen .
He attacked me ; he kept me pressed against the wall despite my efforts to get him to release me .
He wouldnt let me go .
And you expect me to believe that ? I asked , shaking my head .
It seems every time I turn my back , you and Ethan find your way back to each other .
Is that a coincidence ? She pressed her lips together and stared into my eyes I didnt ask for that to happen , nor did I want it to happen , she said slowly .
But you can think what you want .
She started to walk away but I grabbed her arm .
We arent done here- 1 Just as I was about to say more , the door swung open , and Irene walked in with Ethan and Matt behind her .
She paused when she saw us and she frowned , stating between the two of us before her eyes landed on my hand still wrapped around Judys forearm .
Am I interrupting something ? She asked , raising her brows .
I released Judys arm as if she had just burned me .
No , I said sharply .
We were just talking .
Is everything okay ? Irene bit her lip and then nodded .
The dinner was burnt pretty badly , she said , tucking a strand of hair behind her ear .
The maids said they can cook another meal for us , but itll take some time to prepare .
Tell them not to bother .
We can just go out to dinner tonight , I told her .
Her eyes grew large , and she glanced over her shoulder at Matt who was bouncing in his shoes excitedly .
Like a family dinner ? Matt asked .
I nodded ; its been a while since I took my family out to a meal in public .
It would be a nice change ; I suppose by default , Id have to take Ethan as well though .
Thats a great idea , Irene said , a sweet smile on her ps .
Judy , you should come too .
You havent eaten all day , and you must be hungry .
Chapter 0065 Judy frowned as she looked at each of us ; we all stared back at her , waiting on a response .
I knew she was going to try and get out of this though .
The last thing she wanted was to be stuck at a dinner table with the Landry family and her ex .
No , it- Yes , Judy will come along as well , I said , interrupting her before she could decline the invitation .
Judy .
gawked at me .
I should be getting home … You need to eat , I told her firmly .
Its just dinner , Judy .
She looked as if she wanted to protest , but Matt eagerly ran to Judy and wrapped his arms around her legs .
He immediately started to babble about how excited he was about this outing .
We went to an Italian restaurant in the Silver Crescent pack ; Irene gave Judy one of her dresses to wear so she wasnt underdressed .
I hated how much skin she was showing , but I hated even more how beautiful she was .
Her long slender legs drew my attention when she walked and when she leaned forward in her seat , her cleavage nearly spilled out of the gown .
I swallowed the lump in my throat , my Adams apple moving slightly .
She was seated beside me , and Matt was seated on the other side of me .
Irene and Ethan were seated in front of us , and Ethan was directly in front of Judy .
I couldnt help but notice him looking in her direction periodically and Judy did everything she could t avoid his eyes .
Curiosity got the better of me and I wondered what was truly going on between the two of them .
Irene was completely oblivious of the tension between her fiancé and his ex .
She kept sipping on her wine and nibbling on the breadsticks , mindlessly listening to Matt talk about what a badass Judy was during their sparring practice .
The waiter soon arrived with our meals , which silenced Matt .
Judy slowly started to eat her chicken parm and she let out a soft moan as she tasted the food .
The sound immediately went straight to my cock , and I cursed under my breath .
Damn her ! Dad , are you okay ? Irene observed from across the table .
You seem off .
I forced a smile and said , Im fine .
Just eat your food .
She looked at me thoughtfully for a moment , and then her attention was taken off me when Ethan brought a meatball to her lips .
She smiled at him and bit into the meatball off his fork , chuckling as sauce got on her cheek .
He wiped off the sauce with his finger and then licked it off .
I glanced at Judy who was watching them as well , her jaw tight .
I couldnt help myself , I leaned toward her and whispered , Dont they make such a nice couple ? Lets not ruin it for them , okay ?
