The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 29

Chapter 0029 Judys POV I went to the student lounge after my morning class .

I just finished taking an exam and I was completely beaten .

I was pleased to see Nan seated near the window , snaking on a pop tart and studying .

When I approached her , she looked up from her book and smiled .

Hey , she said , sliding an iced coffee across the table .

I got you some caffeine .

You are a lifesaver , I said , taking the coffee and sitting in the seat across from hers .

I took a large sip of the coffee and sighed in contentment , What happened to you last night ? I thought you were going to call me ? She asked , closing her book .

I groaned as I took another sip of the coffee Sorry , I kind of ran a bit behind last night , When I got home , I crashed immediately , I told her .

She raised her brows .

What were you doing that caused you to be so tired ? I knew I had to be careful with what I said to Nan .

The contract that Gavin made me sign stated that Im not to mention him by name or whom Im tutoring .

Gavin and his family were famous in the werewolf world and if people knew that I was working for him , it could cause issues .

I trusted Nan , but I also couldnt risk breaking the contract .

This job was good money , and I couldnt lose it .

I got a job , I told her .

A job ? She asked .

What kind of job ? As a tutor , I answered .

Im tutoring a boy from the neighboring pack .

Its good money and itll help my family out a lot .

Thats awesome , Judy ! She gushed .

Tutoring is a perfect job for you .

There isnt anything you cant do .

I laughed .

You are being so extra , I chuckled .

She rolled her eyes , but I could see the playfulness on her face .

As if , she replied .

Name one thing you cant do .

I thought about it for a moment .

Im not great at knitting , I confessed .

She burst into laughter and shook her head .

But you can still do it even if you arent great at it , she resorted .

Haughed with her .

Goddess , it was good to laugh with my best friend and pretend everything was normal for once .

Thats not any of your business , Carol , I told her through my teeth .

Dont you have better things to do ? Nanasked , folding her arms across her chest .

Arent we a little too old for that mean girl act ? And if it isnt Nan the invisible sidekick , Carol muttered before turning back to me .

I also heard your father is in prison because he owes a lot of money .

Its really shameful for your family .

How are you ever going to pay for your next semester at college with your family going bankrupt and all ? Are you just trying to make up for the fact that Ive beaten you for the top student spot again this year by attacking my personal life ? I asked her , narrowing my eyes .

Her eyes grew wide , not expecting that I would hit her where it hurt the most .

Her face grew pale , and her friends .

were also silent .

Nan sat back in her seat looking proud .

It wont last , Carol muttered .

Soon enough , Ill knock you off your high horse .

Lets go girls .

She turned , her hair whipping around her shoulders , and then she walked off with her friends trailing behind her .

As soon as she was out of sight , I let out the breath I hadnt known I was holding That was awesome , Nan laughed .

Did you see her face ?
