Chapter 0051
Gavin sat down at the table, and I hesitantly sat beside him.
One maid scurried into the room holding a bottle of wine and another bottle of apple juice. She immediately poured Irene a glass of wine and Matt a glass of apple juice. She walked around the table towards Gavin and filled his glass with wine as well. Once she got to me, she gave me a polite smile.
“Wine, madam?” She asked.
“I’ll take apple juice,” I said quickly.
There was no way I was drinking while here; I needed to keep a clear head and as of right now, I didn’t trust drunk Judy when it came to Gavin.
She looked startled but she nodded and poured me a glass of apple juice. After she left, Irene looked at me with a frown.
“You don’t drink?” she asked.
only on occasions,” I told her.
Before she could reply, another maid walked into the room rolling in a car filled with covered food items. They smelled so good, at this point, I didn’t even care what they were. She uncovered one and I gasped. at the large T–bone steaks on the platter. There were 4 of them, one for each of us, and they were still sizzling on the metal pan, bleeding and marinating in their juices. My mouth was watering as she put a steak on each of our plates.
She
uncovered another platter and saw a mound of mashed potatoes, seasoned with garlic. She scooped healthy portions on our plates. The next platter was mixed veggies, roasted in butter and seasoned with salt and pepper.
“Is there anything else I can get for you, Alpha?” She asked as she scooted the cart away from the table.
“That’s everything,” Gavin said, his eyes fixed on his food. “Thank you,” he surprised me by adding.
She nodded, beaming at his words before she turned and left.
“This looks incredible,” I breathed, taking in the different colors and scents.
“Our maids cook the best foods,” Irene agreed as she picked up her fork and knife
I picked up my own fork and knife and I started to digin; the steak was medium rare and cooked to perfection. It practically cut like butter and the flavors burst on my tongue as I chewed slowly. Both my stomach and my wolf were in complete contentment, which relaxed me immensely.
“How’s tutoring going?” Gavin asked, glancing at Math who was picking apart his steak and eating around the fatty edges.
He glanced at Gavin as if he was surprised, he was asking.
“It’s great,” he answered after a beat of silence. “Judy is the best. She teaches me things that no other tutor has ever taught me!”

“That’s because they probably didn’t know how to do those things,” Irene interjected. “I’m not sure where you found those tutors, Dad. But they were not it.”
Gavin hummed in response; like he was agreeing with them. My cheeks flushed at the compliment, and I put a piece of broccoli in my mouth, chewing on it slowly, nearly moaning at the intense flavor. I stifled the sound though, not wanting to draw attention to myself.
“Yeah, they were dimwhits,” Matt murmured.
“Language,” Gavin scolded calmly.
Matt blanched, but he didn’t say anything more.
We continued to eat, mostly in silence. Matt and Irene began a mindless conversation, but I really wasn’t paying much attention to it. Once I started to get full, pushed my plate away and leaned back in my seat. I was fully satisfied and now I just wanted to leave and get some distance between Gavin and me.
The maids soon gathered in the dining room and started to clear our plates.
“Dessert, Alpha?” One of the maids offered as she refilled his wine glass.
He glanced at me as if expecting me to answer for him.
“I should be going,” I told him, giving him a small smile. “But thank you for dinner. I truly enjoyed it.”
He stared at me for a moment longer, as if he wanted to say something, but then he chose not to and gave me a small nod.-
“Let Leroy give you a ride,” he suggested. “It’s late and you shouldn’t be out and about at this hour.”
I bit my lip and nodded.
“That would be nice,” I told him as I stood to my feet. He stood with me and then motioned for me to go ahead of him. I wasn’t expecting him to follow me to the door, but he did, and I could feel his eyes watching my every move.
Third Person POV
Neither Gavin nor Judy noticed Irene and Matt staring after them as they left the dining room. Irene had been curious about Judy because it was clear that Matt liked her. She was the first tutor he had ever taken to, and it made Irene wonder who Judy truly was and what made her so special.
She had to admit, from the small amount of time she spent with Judy, that she also liked her. She couldn’t help but think that she was hiding something though; a secret that Irene couldn’t figure out.
But as they had dinner, she noticed her father stealing glances at Judy as he ate, not even realizing he was doing it, she realized at that moment that she knew exactly what Judy was hiding.
Something was going on between Judy and her father
A smile formed on her lips as she watched after them; Matt was also watching them, and a hopeful look was in his eyes. When he turned to look at Irene, they both had the same mirrored knowing expression.
