Chapter 0261
She nodded and stared down at her hands , tugging her fingers nervously .
I knew it was now or never , I needed to ask her the question weighing on my mind .
1 What exactly did you see earlier , Irene ? I asked .
You said you saw Judy shooting him ? She nodded and turned to face the .
She did it on purpose .
I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair .
I knew Judy and I knew she would never hurt spite .
She wouldnt do that , I murmured , shaking my head .
Irene folded her arms across her chest and glared at me .
She cant be trusted , Daddy , Irene stated simply .
What do you have against Judy ? She blinked a few times like she was trying to adjust her eyes .
What ? She asked .
Matt , especially out of You used to be friends , I reminded her .
Then you found out shes mated with your fiancé .
That cant be all that happened .
What do you have against her ? She was never my friend , Irene murmured .
She lied to me and betrayed me .
Her only crime was not telling you the truth about her and Ethans past .
She still wants him … Irene complained .
Ethan told me that- Ethan also lied to you , Irene , I told her firmly .
If you are to be mad at Judy , then you should be just as mad at him as well .
Its not fair to her that you are treating her like she did something wrong .
She didnt want to hurt you , thats why she didnt tell you .
Theres nothing more to the story than that .
But … she tried to say , but I held up my hand .
I need you to lay off her , Irene , I said , narrowing my eyes at my daughter .
Its not healthy for either of you to keep this grudge going .
Matt was injured badly- That wasnt my fault ! She said quickly .
Im not saying it was , but for right now , we need to start thinking about him and not about our selfishness , I told her .
Do you think you can get over yourself for the sake of your brother ? Hes going to need you these next few weeks while Im gone , and Id like to leave knowing your head is in the right place .
She sucked her bottom lip into her mouth and stared at the ground .
She said nothing for a while , but then she sighed and nodded Okay , she whispered .
So , tell me .
What did you see ? I asked again , hoping her answer would be different this time .
She was quiet for a moment , still fixing her eyes on the ground but then she lifted her gaze to look at mine , tears filling her blue eyes .
It was a mistake , she whispered .noveldrama
Judy was the one who pulled the bow back and shot the arrow into his leg , but she was looking at the target .
Her timing was off … I dont think she would hurt him on purpose .
12 Chapter 0261 I sighed and nodded ; I needed to speak to Judy and make sure she was okay .
Now that I knew with certainty that Matt was okay , my anger was subsiding and now all I felt was worried .
It was strange , but it was bubbling inside me and seconds away from boiling over .
Im going to sleep now .
Goodnight , Irene said as she left the parlor .
I grabbed my phone and dialed Judys number .
It went straight to voicemail ; that didnt surprise me .
So , I called Leroy instead .
I knew he must have taken her home .
Hello , Alpha , Leroy greeted me on the other end .
Leroy , I replied .
Has Judy made it home ? Yes , Leroy said .
But then she left again .
What do you mean she left ? I asked , my wolf officially on edge again .
I mean she got into another car , and it drove off .
