Chapter 0213
Judys POV I was so embarrassed .
I couldnt believe I allowed myself to get drugged last night and then threw myself at Gavin .
I hated that I could remember most of what happened last night .
It was no wonder he left in the middle of the night .
He could barely stand to look at me .
I was surprised when I saw the Tylertol and water on the bedside table though .
I knew Gavin had left that stuff and I found it incredibly sweet that he cared enough about me to do that .
But still , if let mortified that I let myself get drugged in the first place .
I wanted to scream and cry but I refrained from doing so .
I was stronger than that and I needed to get a hold of myself .
I grabbed my phone off the nightstand after I was done taking the medicine and I glanced at the screen , sighing when I saw Nans name lash across the screen from a new text message .
I swiped the screen on and opened the message .
Nan : I barely remember last night .
Did you get home okay ? I pressed the reply and typed my own message .
Me : Yes .
Gavin took us both home .
How are you feeling ? Nan : Like shit .
But Im glad youre okay .
Did I do anything stupid last night Me : Not at all .
Just get some rest today and we can talk later .
I put my phone back on the nightstand and sighed ; it was better if she didnt know how she threw up all over the place .
She also mentioned to me about finding her mate .
I didnt want to worry her too much about the things she told me , so I chose not to tell her right now .
But that didnt mean I wasnt going to grill her later .
I needed to know every detail about this supposed mate of hers .
From the sounds of it , he went on a date with another woman last night and it drove Nan to drink way more than she would have normally drunk .
I couldnt blame her for it ; Im sure it wasnt easy .
A mates betrayal was heart wrenching .
I quickly threw on some clothes and made my way downstairs .
I was starving after last night and I was eager to see what kind of food Chester made this morning .
When I entered the kitchen , I saw him slaving over the stove .
Harper was also in the kitchen , and she looked like she was talking to him , but he was barely paying attention to what she was saying .
She was looking upset over the ordeal and folded her arms across her chest .
Im not sure why you are acting like that , she hissed Because you were the one who said we needed to keep our felationship professional , so thats what Im doing , he told her sounding way harsher than I ever thought Chester was capable of sounding .noveldrama
Everything okay ? I asked as I entered the kitchen and sat at the counter beside Harper .
Chester is acting like a jerk , she murmured , narrowing her eyes at him .
Im not sure what I didnt deserve that treatment … Chester spun around his spatula in hand .
Chapter 0213 You wanted to keep this professional , Harper .
How am I the bad guy here ? He asked her .
Professional while we were working ? We werent working this morning when I was trying to talk to you , she replied .
Okay then start talking .
Whats so important ? He asked , raising his brows .
Her cheeks turned pink , and she glanced at me briefly before looking at him .
I Its kind of a private thing and I dont really want to discuss this right where while we are working , Harper said , biting her lower lip .
Then maybe you should stop asking about it , he murmured , turning away from her .
Chester , you are acting strange .
Everything okay ? I decided to ask .
Yeah , sorry .
Just didnt sleep too well , he muttered .
Thats a lie , Harper said , folding her arms across her chest .
I went to the room last night and you werent there .
Why did you go to my room ? Chester asked , his frown deepening .
Her cheeks reddened again .
Because I wanted to talk to you last night , but I couldnt find you … she muttered .
Chester turned his back on her and continued to cook the food .
After a moment , Harper excused herself and quickly hurried out of the kitchen .
I wanted to go after her to see if she was okay , but I chose to stay and make sure Chester was okay instead .
It was nice focusing on other dramas instead of my own for once .
Chester was in the middle of making veggie omelets and my mouth was watering at the sight of them .
He was so focused on his cooking that he barely noticed I was staring at him the entire time .
That is until he finished and then turned to put the omelet on my empty plate .
He froze when he noticed my eyes following him .
Everything okay ? He asked me , raising his brows .
I could be asking you the same thing , I said .
Whats up with you and Harper ? He shrugged .
We slept together a couple of times to scratch each others itch and now shes acting all clingy , he muttered .
One minute she doesnt want anything from me and the next she wont leave me alone .
Its confusing and Im sick of being there only at her convenience , know what I mean ? I nodded as I picked up my fork .
I think she likes you but is afraid to admit it , I told him .
