Chapter 0137 Chapter 0137 Daddy ! Irene gasped , rushing to his side .


    Dont be rude to Ethans family .


    Im not the one being rude , he said through his teeth .


    It was a misunderstanding , Sophia went on to say , her wordsing out hoarse .


    We didnt know who you were .


    And that makes it okay ? Gavin asked , raising his brows .


    Do you call every gentleman that walks through the door a call boy ? Or just me ? Irene sucked in a sharp breath as she nced at Sophia and then at Ethans mother who was bowing her head , her entire body trembling .


    Kelsey looked as if she was about to get sick .


    Im d I came here when I did because who knows how much worse things could have gotten , said , his lip curling in disgust .


    Gavin It was a mistake , Alpha .


    We didnt recognize you , Sopha tried to exin .


    Please , dont take any of what we said the wrong way .


    How could I not- 10 Daddy , please ! Irene said , her eyes pleading with her father to drop the issue .


    Not here … please , dont make a scene … I hadnt realized that there were now bystanders watching everything happen , and my cheeks burned with embarrassment .


    My mothers eyes were wide as she stared at me , and I could hardly look her in the eyes .


    Gavin looked as if he was about to say something , but then he decided against it .


    He cleared his throat and straightened .


    Ill be taking my leave then , he murmured .


    Alpha , you are more than wee to stay , Meredith tried to say , but was interrupted by a male voice who simultaneously said , Alpha Landry , its a pleasure for you to be here … what seems to be the issue ? I turned to see Ethans father , Raymond , walking toward us with a frown on his lips .


    He was a nobleman and a good friend of my fathers .


    At least he appears to be a good friend ; I thought Meredith and Sophia were friends of my mothers until they spoke cruelly about her earlier .


    Now , Im not entirely sure if Raymond was the same as them as well , but he recognized Gavin immediately and came over to defuse the situation .


    Raymond , Gavin greeted , his tone icy .


    I was just leaving .


    But Alpha , you just got here .


    Why not stay ? The food is almost ready ; let the bartender fix you a drink , Raymond said , stopping beside his wife who suddenly looked incredibly small and vulnerable .


    It seems Im not very wee here , Gavin said , his eyes flickering to Meredith .


    Raymonds eyes darkened as he red at his wife .


    What exactly happened ? He asked , his aura darkening What had you done ? 1/3 Chapter 0137  443 Please , Daddy .


    Just let it go .


    They didnt mean any harm … Irene pleaded .


    Whatever my wife had said to you , Im sure it can be cleared up , Raymond said , his eyes still pouring into Merediths face .


    I apologize for any rudeness .


    Please stay for a little while and get some food .


    Its okay … I whispered for Gavins ears only .


    You can stay .


    He turned to look at me , his eyes narrowed , but they softened when he looked into my eyes .


    I want to take you home , he told me softly .


    Ill stay for a bit , I assured him .


    Im just going to clean up .


    He looked at me for a moment longer before nodding .


    didnt miss the looks that Meredith and Kelsey exchanged with one another , hearing some of the dialogue between us .


    Ill help you clean up , my mother said , draping an arm through mine .


    I hadnt even noticed she was nearby until she spoke , but I was relieved by her presence .


    I nodded and turned back to Gavin .


    Ill see youter , Alpha , I told him , a bit louder for those around us to hear .


    He gave me a curt nod before turning back to Raymond .


    Their conversation was drowned out as we headed into the Cash family manor and towards the bathroom .


    How could you make a scene like that ? my mother asked once we reached the bathroom .


    I wasnt the one making the scene , I murmured .


    She sighed as she grabbed a hand towel and wet it with some warm water .


    Look , I need you to know something , and I dont want you to freak out .


    I frowned , worry bubbling in my belly .


    Okay ? I urged her to continue .


    I spoke to Ethans parents earlier .


    Raymond went over details on how much I could get for the house , she exined ; my heart sank .


    Our house ? I asked her .


    She nodded .


    I could get a lot of money that could pay off a lot of the debt your father owes , she told me .


    It wont be enough to get him out of prison … but its something .


    If you are going to sell the house , then where exactly are we going to live ? I asked her .


    She was quiet for a moment as she attempted to clean the wine stain from my blouse while I wiped my face with another hand towel .


    Mom ? I asked after she hadnt answered .


    2 : 3 Chapter 0137 She sighed and looked up at me , her eyes soft and apologetic .


    Meredith and Raymond offered us their guest room , she told me gently .


    What are you saying ? I asked , my entire body feeling paralyzed .


    Im saying … we would be living here ; with the Cash family .
