Seducing My Ex's Father In Law by Caroline Above Story

Judy's POV

Gavin's body tensed at the sound of his mother's words; his hand gripping mine tightly. He turned to look at her; she stood in the archway of the sitting room, her arms folded across her chest. She wore a gorgeous evening gown, making me think she was just heading out. Her hair was perfectly curled and tied up into a bun, and her makeup looked professionally done.
