The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 52

Chapter 0052 Third Person POV Later in the evening , Irene sat curled up on the couch , staring at her phone .

Ethan told her that he would call at 8 pm and now it was 9:30 pm .

She tried calling him a couple of times about a half hour ago , but he didnt answer .

She texted him as well , but her messages were left unread .

He had never disappeared from her like this before and she wasnt sure what to make of it .

Her stomach was in a tight knot , and she couldnt help the bad feeling she had in her chest .

She wishes that she had someone to talk to about this , but she doesnt have any actual friends .

She has some girls that she hangs around once in a while , but Irene was smart enough to know when shes being used .

Most of them only want to hang out with her because of her status as Gavin Landrys daughter ; they either want something from her , or they want to get close to her father .

The closest one she has to a friend right now is Judy and she doesnt have her number .

She isnt even sure if Judy wants to be friends with her .

She wrapped her arms around her body like she was trying to hold herself together .

Everything okay ? Her father asked as he walked into the room .

He was wearing his pajama bottoms and no shirt .

It was a rarity for Irene to see her father without a suit on ; he was always well dressed , even if he was just walking around the house , which he never really did .

Im worried about Ethan , she admitted , glancing at her phone .

He hasnt called me .

Gavin let out a huff that Irene knew way too well to be disapproval .

It was no secret that Gavin didnt like Ethan very much .

Irene wasnt sure why because Ethan had been nothing but kind to her from the very first moment they met .

He looked so handsome in his tux and his dark curls brushed out of his face as he scanned the room of the Alpha banquet .

Word had gotten out that Alpha Carter from the Redmoon pack had died during at battle and now all available Alpha candidates in the area were gathered around to impress Gavin Landry .
