Chapter 38
Chapter 0038 Gavins POV Her scent of Lavender and fresh vanilla was intoxicating .
Even drunk , she was oddly captivating .
But she was young , almost my daughters age and I wasnt someone who would take advantage of a young girl .
There was a reason she decided to drink so much tonight ; the last thing she needed was someone , old enough to be her father , to have his way with her .
I already saved her from one creep I refused to be another ..
I was almost grateful that my phone rang , interrupting wherever this was about to lead .
But when I saw the caller , I internally groaned .
I pushed Judy slightly so she would give me some space as I swiped across the screen .
Yes ? I said into the phone , ignoring Judys pout .
Is that any way to greet your mother ? My mother asked .
Im kind of in the middle of something , I told her , ignoring her comment .
Arent you always , she murmured .
Too busy to speak with your mother .
I gave birth to you and raised you , but you are too busy to take my calls .
Thats the thanks I receive ? I cant help but roll my eyes .
What is it you want , Mom ? I asked , trying to keep the annoyance out of my tone .
My mother had a way of bringing out my aggravation .
It wasnt that she wasnt a good mom ; we were pretty close growing up , though I was much closer to my father than anything .
My mother was always pushy though and she didnt stop until she got her way .
The day my father passed away , it only caused things to be worse .
She clung to me like I was her saving grace ; I suppose in a way , I was .
I was there for her when she needed me the most .
Its not like my sister , Sarah , really cared about anything or anybody other than herself .noveldrama
She was too busy drowning her sorrows in a bottle of whiskey and taking drugs her abusive boyfriend would give her Meanwhile , my younger brother , Noah , moved to a different country to be with his mate about 19 or 20 years ago , and the two of them are currently raising a new family together .
Noah checks in once in a while and Ive gone to visit with him and his family a few times .
Ive even taken Matt and Irene to visit with them a couple of different times .
But my mother never bothered to visit them ; she resented him for leaving for 20 or so years and nothing he said would ever change her mind .
My mother was a stubborn woman and since my father died a few years ago , Its only gotten worse .
I was only calling to remind you about our family dinner tomorrow , she told me .
Your grandparents , along with my sisters and brother will be in town Im cooking a meal to welcome them .
I sighed ; its not that I forgot about the event , but something terrible always happens when they all get together .
My mother doesnt get along well with her sisters and her mother does nothing but criticize her .
It makes my mother that much crazier .
Its always a shitshow .
She gets blamed for literally everything , including the fact that Sarah went off the deep end .
Ive remembered , I told her after a brief silence .
Ill be there .
You should bring Daisy with you , she blurted not too subtly .
Why would I do that ? Chapter 0038 Because she likes you , Gavin , my mother told me .
I always thought the two of you would make a good couple .
I think its about time you start dating seriously now , dont you think ? Enough with these one night stands and meaningless relationships .
Daisy is a proper woman and deserves to be treated as such .
My mother was a big advocate for Daisy Sparks , my late wifes sister .
I was never a fan of Daisy myself , but I understood why others were .
She was gorgeous and a famous fashion designer .
She was a strong and successful woman ; in another life , maybe I would give Daisy a shot .
But being around her reminded me too much of my wife .
They looked similar enough that it was unsettling .
My mother didnt seem to see it that way though .
I glanced over at Judy , and I saw that she had completely fallen asleep .
Her head was resting on the window and she was breathing heavily .
Im not interested in her , I said in a low tone .
I just want you to be happy , Gavin , my mother breathed , My romantic life isnt your concern , I told her , my voice firmed .
I will see you tomorrow .
Without another word , I hung up the phone .
Turning my attention back to Judy , she was still asleep .
Alpha , we have arrived , Leroy said as he rolled down the window separating the backseat from the front seat .
I nodded and slid out of the backseat , making my way to Judys side , I pulled the door open , catching her before she fell out of the car .
She weighed practically nothing when I lifted her into my arms as she rested her head on my chest and she made a satisfied noise , it went straight to my cock
