Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 138

Chapter 0138

Judy’s POV

“Mom, you can’t be serious!” I gasped. “How could you agree to such a thing.”

“I know it’s not the ideal situation but-”

“Not the ideal situation?!”

“Don’t raise your voice at me, Judy,” my mother scolded, “We need the money, and I am running out of options.”

“If they are so keen on you selling our house for the money, then why not let us borrow money? I thought you were going to ask them!” I exclaimed, shaking my head at the logic. “It doesn’t make any

sense.”

“I couldn’t bring myself to ask them. Especially after Raymond explained how he made some risky investments and he’s worried about the turnout,” she explained, sighing. “Plus, my pride wouldn’t allow me to ask them for handouts.”

“But you have no problems having me ask Ethan for handouts?” I countered, raising my brows.

“That’s different,” she murmured. “He’s your fated mate and you were supposed to marry him.”

“Isn’t Meredith your friend?” I asked her, giving her a pointed look. “Why not ask her for money?”

She bit her lower lip and stared down at the towel in her hands.

“I just can’t bring myself to do it. This is the easiest solution, and I’ll still have my pride. Living here won’t be so bad. They were kind enough to open their doors to us and I’m going to accept their offer.”

“Is living here not damaging to your pride as well?” I asked her.

She sighed and lifted her gaze to meet mine.

“It’s different,” she told me gently. “I’m sorry for upsetting you, Judy. But if you can’t get the money from Ethan, then this is the next best solution. I’m not sure what else to do, but after selling the house, we will be a little closer to helping your father. That’s all that matters to me right now.”

Tears filled my eyes before I could stop them; I didn’t want to cry here while I was in the Cash family manor. I didn’t want to cry at all, but this couldn’t be helped.

“I can’t live here, Mom…” I whispered.

“Oh, sweetie. If this is because of Ethan and Irene, they won’t be living here. They will be living in the packhouse after Ethan becomes our Alpha. You won’t have to see them every day,” she assured me.” Besides, once he marks and mates with Irene, your mate bond will officially be broken, and you won’t have to endure the pain of the severed bond any longer.”
