Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Chapter 0055 Ive known you for a while , Judy .

You cant bullshit me .

What do you expect me to say , Ethan ? That Im not okay ? That my mother is depressed and barely eats ? Isnt this what you wanted ? For me to suffer ? So why are you acting like you care right now when we both know you dont ! Judy ! My mother shrieked from the doorway , her eyes large and alert .

How dare you speak to him like that ! Mom … Hes going to be our Alpha , and he deserves our respect , my mother continued to scold .

Its okay , Mrs.

Montague .

How about you go and sit on the couch ? Ill cook you some dinner , Ethan offered .

vay of My mother beamed at him ; the first smile I had seen from her in a while .

Ethan always had a way bringing that out of her .

How very thoughtful of you , Ethan , she said sweetly .

Thank you .

She gave me another look before she turned and left the kitchen .

I spun around on my heel to glare at him .

What are you doing? I asked him , my tone dry .

Despite what you might think , I actually care about your mother and its hard to see her like this .

Its hard to see you like this too , Judy .

Go into the living room and spend time with her .

Ill cook you both dinner and then afterward we can talk .

I furrowed my brows at him , trying to figure out the gamme he was playing .

But I was too exhausted to think too much about it , so I sighed and walked out of the kitchen .

I didnt bother telling him that I already ate dinner because then he would just ask me innecessary questions .

My mother was curled up on the couch , staring at a picture of my father with tears in her eyes .

I saw beside her , and she was startled at my presence .

Why cant you just do what he wants so we can get your father back ? She asked me , taking me by surprise .

I looked at her in disbelief ; if only she knew what it was he was asking me to do .

Because we dont need his help , Mom , I told her for the hundredth time .

I have us covered .

How ? That tutoring job is hardly enough to pay off your fathers debt , my mother told me , her voice pleading .

We need him to come home , Judy .

I covered my mothers hands with mine , trying to provide her with some type of comfort .

And he will , I assured her .

I promise .

Not before long , the room was filled with the scent of garlic from the pasta sauce .

Had Ethan made pasta 1/2 cha Chapter 0055 sauce from scratch ? He didnt need to do all of that ; I just needed my mother to have a little something in her system .

I , on the other hand , wasnt hungry because I had already eaten a large meal at Gavins house .

Soon , Ethan was walking into the living room with a couple of plates .

He handed me one and I set it on the table , and then he handed my mother one .

My suspicions were confirmed when I saw the gourmet- looking meat sauce on the pasta .

You didnt need to do all of that , I told him .

The jar of sauce would have been fine .

He rolled his eyes .

I wouldnt even feed that to a dog , he muttered .

Im not sure I can eat , my mother admitted , staring at the food sadly .noveldrama

Please try , Ethan asked her , sitting on the seat across from the couch .

It would mean the world to me .

if you até something .

She looked at him for a moment before she nodded .

He glanced at me and narrowed his eyes .

You should eat too , he said , motioning for the plate on the table .

Im not hungry , I told him flatly .

He frowned at me .

Can you stop being so stubborn for once and do what youre told ? He asked , narrowing his eyes at me .

I remained silent , not justifying that with a response .

Ethan gave up after a moment and turned his attention to my mother .

I watched as my mother nibbled on the food while having a mindless conversation with Ethan .

I thought Ethan would have left after dinner or picked a fight with me about the same things as usual , but he didnt .

He stayed and cleaned the dishes ; he cleaned up the rest of the kitchen as well .

Once he was done in the kitchen , he tidied up the living room while I kept my mother company .

Then , he proceeded to go into my mothers room and clean up her space as well .

He picked her out some comfortable pajamas and drew her a bath .

I helped her get into the bath while Ethan remained in the living room .

I was expecting , along with hoping , he would have left while my mother was in the bath .

But when I returned to the living room after successfully putting my mother to bed , he was waiting for me .

I had to admit , I was grateful that he was able to help my mother this evening .

Im not sure she would have eaten anything or taken care of herself if he wasnt here .

Thank you , Ethan , for your help , I told him .

It honestly means a lot .

It doesnt come without a cost , he said , raising his brows .

Now , Im hoping that you can return the favor .
