Chapter 0175 Judys POV Later in the evening , we had dinner in the dining hall .
I told the kitchen staff and Harper that on the days Gavin isnt here , Ill just eat in the kitchen .
They seemed to have understood ; so far , everybody here was very nice .
The food was delicious as well .
I glanced at Gavin who was cutting into his steak and when he felt me staring at him , he glanced in my direction .
I need to talk to you about something , I said quickly as I put down my fork .
Go on , he said , raising his brows ; he was trying hard not to smile , and I could tell because the corner of his lip twitched .
I need my best friend , I blurted .
I need to be able to talk to her about stuff and I hate lying about whats been going on in my life .
Shes going to ask questions once she realizes Im no longer living at the Cash family manor and Id like to tell her the entire truth about … well … this , I said , motioning between me and him , and then gesturing to the mansion .
He studied me for a moment ; I was holding my breath as his eyes scanned my face and then he put his fork down .
His face was shining with indifference , and it made a knot form in the pit of my stomach .
I worried about what he was going to say ; maybe I was looking way too into this and there was nothing to tell .
Either way , I still wanted her to know that I was living in the Landry mansion .
But what if he said no then I would have to continue lying to her .
… My mind was spiraling , and I was very aware of that , but then he cleared his throat , bringing my attention to his face .
Is it that girl that works at the Carter resort ? He asked .
I was surprised he remembered her , and I felt a strange sense of jealousy rising in my chest , but I swallowed it down and nodded .
Yes , I told him .
Nan .
We grew up together and I usually tell her everything about my life and vice versa .
Shes my best friend .
He studied me a bit longer , neither of us saying anything and I started to squirm in my seat , feeling uncomfortable .
Then , after what felt like an eternity , he nodded .
Okay .
I raised my brows , watching as he grabbed his fork and continued to eat as if this conversation hadnt happened .
Okay ? I asked him , wanting clarification .
Hmm .
I can tell her ? I asked , not satisfied with his short response .
He glanced at me , the corner of his lip twitching again ; he was finding this amusing I realized .
He liked watching me squirm and giving me +25 BONUS Chapter 0175 indifferent answers .
Yes .
My heart swelled with excitement .
I was going to call Nan first thing in the morning and invite her to lunch with me so we can talk properly .
I would have jumped across the table and kissed him , but just then , one of the kitchen aids walked in and started to clean some of the mess off the table .
I was expecting Gavin to spend the night with me , but he had to return to his Villa .
I couldnt blame him .
His children were there after all .
But that didnt stop him from rocking my world another time before he left .
I ended up falling asleep before he officially left , so I didnt get to say goodbye .
But when I woke up the next morning , I felt a sense of loneliness .
The bed where he was once lying was cold and I felt my chest becoming empty .
I sighed and got out of bed ; the sun was rising in the distance and a smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I watched the different rays of colors expand across the Silver Crescent pack .
I went info the bathroom and spent some time utilizing the giant whirlpool tub .
It was the best thing Ive ever experienced .
It was like a hot tub in the middle of the bathroom .
By the time I was finished , my entire body felt like Jello , and my mind was put at ease .
I had never felt more relaxed in my life .
I was surprised that breakfast was ready when I reached the kitchen .
Good morning , mam , the head chef said with a polite smile .
Breakfast is ready for you .
You can call me Judy , I assured him .
Then , you can call me Chester , he replied .
Chester looked to be in his late 30s and was honestly not bad to look at .
The female kitchen staff certainly made their interest known because they blushed every time he spoke to them .
I wondered if they were new because they didnt seem quite used to him yet .
Its nice to officially meet you , Chester , I said , grabbing a fork out of the silverware dish .
