Chapter 0213 Judys POV I was so embarrassed .


    I couldnt believe I allowed myself to get druggedst night and then threw myself at Gavin .


    I hated that I could remember most of what happenedst night .


    It was no wonder he left in the middle of the night .


    He could barely stand to look at me .


    I was surprised when I saw the Tylertol and water on the bedside table though .


    I knew Gavin had left that stuff and I found it incredibly sweet that he cared enough about me to do that .


    But still , if let mortified that I let myself get drugged in the first ce .


    I wanted to scream and cry but I refrained from doing so .


    I was stronger than that and I needed to get a hold of myself .


    I grabbed my phone off the nightstand after I was done taking the medicine and I nced at the screen , sighing when I saw Nans namesh across the screen from a new text message .


    I swiped the screen on and opened the message .


    Nan : I barely rememberst night .


    Did you get home okay ? I pressed the reply and typed my own message .


    Me : Yes .


    Gavin took us both home .


    How are you feeling ? Nan : Like shit .


    But Im d youre okay .


    Did I do anything stupidst night Me : Not at all .


    Just get some rest today and we can talkter .


    I put my phone back on the nightstand and sighed ; it was better if she didnt know how she threw up all over the ce .


    She also mentioned to me about finding her mate .


    I didnt want to worry her too much about the things she told me , so I chose not to tell her right now .


    But that didnt mean I wasnt going to grill herter .


    I needed to know every detail about this supposed mate of hers .


    From the sounds of it , he went on a date with another womanst night and it drove Nan to drink way more than she would have normally drunk .


    I couldnt me her for it ; Im sure it wasnt easy .


    A mates betrayal was heart wrenching .


    I quickly threw on some clothes and made my way downstairs .


    I was starving afterst night and I was eager to see what kind of food Chester made this morning .


    When I entered the kitchen , I saw him ving over the stove .


    Harper was also in the kitchen , and she looked like she was talking to him , but he was barely paying attention to what she was saying .


    She was looking upset over the ordeal and folded her arms across her chest .


    Im not sure why you are acting like that , she hissed Because you were the one who said we needed to keep our ftionship professional , so thats what Im doing , he told her sounding way harsher than I ever thought Chester was capable of sounding .


    Everything okay ? I asked as I entered the kitchen and sat at the counter beside Harper .


    Chester is acting like a jerk , she murmured , narrowing her eyes at him .


    Im not sure what I didnt deserve that treatment … Chester spun around his spat in hand .


    Chapter 0213 You wanted to keep this professional , Harper .


    How am I the bad guy here ? He asked her .


    Professional while we were working ? We werent working this morning when I was trying to talk to you , she replied .


    Okay then start talking .


    Whats so important ? He asked , raising his brows .


    Her cheeks turned pink , and she nced at me briefly before looking at him .


    I Its kind of a private thing and I dont really want to discuss this right where while we are working , Harper said , biting her lower lip .


    Then maybe you should stop asking about it , he murmured , turning away from her .


    Chester , you are acting strange .


    Everything okay ? I decided to ask .


    Yeah , sorry .


    Just didnt sleep too well , he muttered .


    Thats a lie , Harper said , folding her arms across her chest .


    I went to the roomst night and you werent there .


    Why did you go to my room ? Chester asked , his frown deepening .


    Her cheeks reddened again .


    Because I wanted to talk to youst night , but I couldnt find you … she muttered .


    Chester turned his back on her and continued to cook the food .


    After a moment , Harper excused herself and quickly hurried out of the kitchen .


    I wanted to go after her to see if she was okay , but I chose to stay and make sure Chester was okay instead .


    It was nice focusing on other dramas instead of my own for once .


    Chester was in the middle of making veggie omelets and my mouth was watering at the sight of them .


    He was so focused on his cooking that he barely noticed I was staring at him the entire time .


    That is until he finished and then turned to put the omelet on my empty te .


    He froze when he noticed my eyes following him .


    Everything okay ? He asked me , raising his brows .


    I could be asking you the same thing , I said .


    Whats up with you and Harper ? He shrugged .


    We slept together a couple of times to scratch each others itch and now shes acting all clingy , he muttered .


    One minute she doesnt want anything from me and the next she wont leave me alone .


    Its confusing and Im sick of being there only at her convenience , know what I mean ? I nodded as I picked up my fork .


    I think she likes you but is afraid to admit it , I told him .
