Seducing My Ex's Father In Law

Judy's POV

Gavin's mother lived in a manor on the other side of the pack; it was a smaller manor, but it was perfect for just one woman and her staff members to live there. Chester would speak about this home on occasions because sometimes he would be sent there to work in the kitchen when her head chef fell ill.

I felt the warmth of Gavin's hand enclosing mine, bringing me back to the present moment. I looked up at his earnest expression, and a small smile tipped the corner of his lips.

I bit my lower lip, nibbling on it nervously, and I nodded, trying to steel myself before getting out of the car.
