Chapter 0160
Gavin’s POV
“Every last mald was investigated, sir,” one of my garmas informed me. “They knew nothing about the crime and was astonished she would do such a thing. None of them will vouge for her though, fearing banishment.
I nodded and tapped my fingers on my desk.
“And that maid is gone?”
“Yes, Alpha. Per your orders. We escorted her off pack property a couple of hours ago.”
“I just sent out a memo to other Alphas informing them of her crimes and that they aren’t to allow her in their pack’s either,” I said, leaning back in my seat.
“Yes, Alpha,” the gamma agreed. “Is there anything else I can do for you?”
Just as I was about to answer, the door to my office opened and Taylor walked into the room. He paused when he saw the gamma.
“That’ll be all,” I said to the gamma. “You are dismissed.”
He nodded and left, smiling warily at Taylor as he passed. Taylor shut the door after the gamma and turned to face me.
“Any new information?” He asked.
“None of the maids know a thing,” I murmured. “And the maid who did the crime is long gone. She isn’t to step foot in another pack.”
“Perfect,” Taylor said, a sly grin on his face. “She’ll probably be dead by sundown.”
“If we are lucky,” I muttered. “Were you able to speak with Judy?”
Taylor frowned, and suddenly, he looked uneasy. He stared at his feet for a moment, refusing to meet my eyes. I straightened in my seat and narrowed my eyes at my Beta.
“Taylor,” I said slowly, getting his attention. “What happened? Did you or did you not speak with Judy?” Taylor lifted his gaze to finally meet mine and then he nodded.
“Yes,” he answered. “I spoke to her.”
I let out a breath of air, leaning back in my seat.
“And? Will she return to the villa and continue her job as Matt’s tutor?” I asked.
Taylor looked even more uneasy.
“I didn’t get a chance to ask, but from the sounds of it. no,” he said, returning his gaze to the ground.
“What the fuck do you mean by that?” I asked, my temper rising. “Why wouldn’t she return to her job now that her name has been cleared.”

Taylor sighed and stepped closer to my desk.
“Look, she feels wronged, and she has every right to feel that way,” Taylor told me. “She wants you to apologize to her in person. I don’t think I should have been the one to see her in the first place.”
I sunk back into my seat; Taylor was right… I shouldn’t have sent him to speak with her. It should have been me. I was the one who kicked her out that night; made her feel worse than she already felt. I asked her to move in with me, and then treated her like a criminal. I ghosted her all week. I had all her calls sent to voicemails and her texts sent to spam. I was the one in the wrong and I sent Taylor in to speak to her on my behalf.
“You’re right,” I ultimately said as I stood to my feet. I’ll go to her house and speak with her now.”
Taylor looked uneasy once again..
“What else aren’t you telling me?” I asked, feeling even more annoyed now.
“She’s not at her house anymore,” he said as he pulled out his phone. He swiped around the screen for a minute until he found what he was looking for. “I did some research on my way back here and it turns
to move out that her mother actually did put the house up for sale. It was sold off last week and they had a few days ago.
“What?!” I growled; so, the phone conversation I heard was true. Judy’s mother truly did sell their family home and forced her and her daughter to move elsewhere. Why would she do such a thing? Was her family hurting for money?
