Chapter 95
Chapter 0095 Are you okay ? She asked .
I blinked a few times , confused by the sudden change .
I think so , I told her .
But can we go ? She frowned .
Not until we shopped until our hearts contents , she said , grabbing my arm .
Lets keep them busy .
I didnt want to stay in this place , but I didnt argue .
An hour later , we were leaving with arms of bags .
Thankfully , Leroy was still out front , so we were able to drop off our shopping bags with him while we continued to shop .
By the time we finished , I was exhausted and starving .
Can you two maybe go somewhere else for an hour while we eat ? I heard Irene asking her guards .
They both looked at one another .
We have orders to stay with you- One of them tried to say .
I know the orders , she said bitterly .
But we can manage dinner without an audience .
Please … I just need some space , and Id like to eat in peace .
Well , what are we supposed to do ? The other one asked .
I dont care .
Stay here with Leroy , she suggested .
That way youll be in range if anything happens .
They looked uncertain , but they soon relented with a head nod .
Okay , but the first sign of danger and we are getting you out of there , he said , folding his arms across his chest .
Irene smiled sweetly and turned on her heel , motioning for me to follow .
We went into a gorgeous small restaurant , and we were greeted by the hostess immediately .
She knew Irene and greeted her by name , barely sparing me a glance .
Irene ordered us each a glass of white wine and glasses of lemon water while we looked over the menu .
I finally settled on a BLT sandwich with a side of coleslaw and Irene ordered a Greek salad .
Once we put our orders in , we remained silent for a long while , sipping on our glasses of wine and staring at our empty plates .
Irene looked uneasy and I knew there was something on her mind .
She wanted to talk to me during dinner and I guessed it was difficult for her to bring up .
I sighed and cleared my throat , bringing her attention to me .
You said you wanted to talk about something , I reminded her .
She nodded and bit her lower lip .
Its about Ethan , she said in a whisper .
She looked around to make sure no one was listening to our conversation .
My heart felt heavy in my chest ; I had a feeling it was going to be about Ethan .
But I was hoping it +25 BONUS Chapter 0095 wouldnt be .
I sat back in my seat and watched her warily .
Go on , I said hesitantly .
I dont know how to ask this and Im sorry if Im coming off a bit weird … she began to say quickly .
But is there something going on between you two ? I raised my brows .
What ? I asked .
Are you sleeping with him ? She blurted .
I gasped at her erupt question and nearly shot to my feet .
But I kept my composure and just stared at her , dumbfounded .
Why would she think we were sleeping together ? Had I done something to make her think this ? When I didnt respond right away , Irene winced .
Im sorry , but I need to know if you are sleeping with my fiancé , Judy … Of course , Im not , I told her in a harsh whisper .
Why would you think that ? She bit her lip and chewed on it for a moment .
Because you both act strangely around one another , she answered .
You get weird and Ethan … well Ethan cant take his eyes off you .
I felt heat rushing to my cheeks .
She truly was observant .
Im not sleeping with him , I assured her .
I barely even know him .
We are from the same pack , so I knew him before you introduced us .
But I would never sleep with him knowing hes in a relationship with someone else , I assured her .
