The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 231

Chapter 0231 Gavin : Sorry I couldnt come over last night .

Id like to see you tonight though .

Dinner tonight ? I couldnt help the smile that lit up my face .

I pressed the reply button and typed out my own message .

Me : That sounds great ! I pressed send and then I quickly got out of bed .

I didnt bother changing out of my pajamas as I left my room and went down the stairs and towards the kitchen .

My stomach was growling considering I hadnt eaten last night .noveldrama

I hoped Chester was well enough to cook breakfast ; if not , I guess Ill just have to cook it myself .

I was honestly surprised when I saw him hard at work in the kitchen .

There was no one else with him though .

I glanced around the kitchen , wondering where the kitchen adds were but when I didnt see them , my eyes found Chesters .

He had paused his movements behind the counter , and I could see that he was contemplating asking me something , but then he changed his mind and turned his attention back to what he was doing .

Where is everybody ? I asked as I walked towards the breakfast nook and took a seat .

I told them I wanted some space today and to take the day off , he told me , without even glancing in my direction .

I watched him as he moved effortlessly around the kitchen Is everything okay ? I asked , raising my brows at him .

He finished plating the food and then he slid it across the counter and in my direction .

He was quiet as he walked over to the coffee pot and started to pour some into a mug for me .

At first , I didnt think he was going to answer my question .

But then he brought me the coffee , along with the sweeteners and cream , and he leaned against the counter , looking defeated .

Can I ask you a question ? He asked .

I nodded and started to sweeten my coffee and poor cream into the black elixir .

Of course , I answered .

I was honestly just glad that someone was at least talking to me .

I would answer any question he had for me at this point .

Youre 20 , right ? he asked .

I glanced up at him and nodded .

Yes , I answered .

Why ? Usually , people find their mates at the age of 18 , he murmured .

I held up my hand to stop him .

Thats a myth , I told him .

You can find your mate at any stage of life .

It doesnt have ot be at 18.

How old is too old ? I furrowed my brows .

I dont believe there is such a thing as too old , I told him But 35 ? He asked .

Chapter 0231 1 took a sip of my coffee , eyeing him carefully over the rim before I set the coffee mug down .

I licked my lips and picked up my fork .

The cat was out of the bag … Irene knew the truth and she was honestly the only one I didnt want to know about this .

Chester lived in this mansion , which meant he saw almost everything .

He knew about my relationship with Gavin , so didnt matter if he knew even more details .

Yes … I finally answered .

He glanced up at me with a frownL What ? I found my mate , I told him .

When I was 18.

I had known him for a long time prior and admittedly , Ive always had a little crush on him throughout our childhood .

We are from the same pack … so we were always around each other .

When I turned 18 we discovered that we were mates and then he marked me almost right away .

I brushed the hair away from my neck to show him my mark and he gasped when he saw .

Youve been marked ? He asked , his eyes wide with horror .

I nodded and sighed .

H Yes , I replied out loud .

I stared down at my plate , a wave of sadness washing over me .

We were supposed to get married .

So , why didnt you ? He asked .

What happened ? 1 bit my lower lip , remaining quiet for a moment , and then looked up at him .

He left me for Gavns daughter .
