Chapter 0090 Judys POV He kissed you ?! Nan shrieked on the phone the next afternoon .


    I had to pull the phone away from my ear at the sound of her loud voice .


    Yes , I told her .


    It was unexpected .


    The Uber driver parked the car outside of Gavins vi .


    I thanked him before handing him his tip and got out of the car .


    Nan , I have to go , I just got to work , I told her , rushing her off the phone as I ascended the steps that led to the front door .


    Okay , but you have to call meter .


    I need all the details , she told me .


    Will do , I assured her , and then I hung up the phone .


    Truth be told , there werent many details to tell her .


    The kiss was decent enough , but it wasnt anything to write home about .


    It didnt ignite my passion or leave me feeling breathless … it didnt even make my legs weak .


    It was nothing like the kiss Ive shared with Gavin in the past .


    My cheeks warmed at the thought .


    Why was Gavin popping up in my head at moments like these? I should not be thinking about Gavin or his kisses .


    That was thest thing I should be thinking about right now .


    But even during my datest night when I was with Walter , I couldnt help but wonder what it would have been like to be with Gavin .


    To have Gavins arms wrapped around me while we danced under the moonlight to beautiful jazz music .


    What it would have been like to have his lips pressed against mine during the heat of the passion and to know that I was the only one he wanted to be with .


    I needed to get a grip on myself because those thoughts were ridiculous .


    Those things could never happen .


    He was my boss and nothing more .


    Just because we almost had sex that one time , doesnt mean he has any type of feelings towards me .


    If anything , he felt the opposite .


    He thought of me as a showgirl .


    Someone he can have one night stands with and never see again .


    The thought left an unsettled feeling in my chest that swallowed down .


    Adam stood at the doorway with an indifferent look on his face .


    I knew he was still upset with me for making him look foolish in front of his boss .


    Now , he wasnt even allowed to speak in the presence of Gavin .


    Its not like it was my fault ; Adam was the one who was trying to get me fired the moment I got the job .


    I still didnt understand why that was ; I mean Adam was the one who invited me to apply for this job in the first ce .


    Master Matthew is waiting for you in the parlor , he told me .


    Hes already gotten a head start on his homework .


    I think hes eager to spar this evening .


    I smiled at the thought .


    Thanks , Adam , I said to him , trying to be polite .


    1/2  Chapter 0090 I didnt want any bad blood between us , but that also depended on him as well .


    He nodded and I went on my way to the back parlor where Mathew was buried in his book and taking notes in his notebook .


    I smiled at the sight , but then my smile faltered when I saw who was seated on the loveseat across the room , scrolling through her phone .


    When I entered the room , she looked up and gave me a wry smile .


    Hello , Judy , she greeted ; her voice sounding almost sad .


    Hey , Irene , I replied , trying not to sound too bothered by her being here .


    At least she was alone this time ; I wanted to ask her where her fiancé was , but I had a feeling her sour mood had something to do with him .


    Maybe she didnt like the fact that he dragged her to the galleryst night .


    Walter told me that they had been fighting a lottely and she didnt want to go outst night , so I was surprised when I saw the two of them there when we returned from our walk .


    I thought for certain Ethan would try and talk to me at some point during the evening , but surprisingly , he kept his distance .


    Maybe he was finally getting the hint that I wanted nothing to do with him .


    Or maybe he just didnt want his precious Irene to feel insecure and worried that his mind was elsewhere .


    Is it okay if I sit with you while you tutor ? She asked .


    I need to get my mind off stuff .


    I nced at Matt who was still busy doing his homework before I turned back to Irene .


    I dont mind , I told her .


    She looked relieved and rxed back into the loveseat .


    I went to Matt and sat beside him .


    We spent the next hour doing the rest of his homework and going over the stuff that he had already done .


    Oncepleted , we went out back to practicebat and defense .


    As we walked outside , I was surprised to see that Irene was following us .


    Her nose was still buried in her phone , and she was barely paying attention to where she was walking , but she was following after us .


    Once we reached our destination , Irene sat at one of the lounge chairs that was set up and she continued to type away on her phone .


    I furrowed my brows at her , but she didnt notice .


    Her and Ethan got into another fight , Matt whispered .


    Shes been sulking all day .
