Chapter 178

“I would never do that, Judy,” she told me. “You can trust me.”

I knew she was right and that I could trust her. So, I relaxed in my seat.

It felt good to talk about everything and share my feelings. I was really thankful to have Nan by my side. I knew I could trust her with what I was going through.

“So, you moved in with him,” Nan said, curious about my new living situation.

“Really?” she asked, raising her eyebrows.

“Yeah, apparently he has another mansion in his collection,” I replied.

She didn’t seem surprised; she just nodded thoughtfully.

“He’s Gavin Landry, of course,” I continued.

He owns several properties. This might not even be his only mansion, she told me.

“He went to the Cash family manor for dinner to get to know them better. While he was there, he saw me being treated like a slave. He was shocked.”

“I was really angry and he ordered me to move into his mansion,” I explained.

She looked like she was about to scream again, but then she stopped herself and cleared her throat. I kept telling her the story about how I ended up in this situation.

I wanted my mom to come with me, but she insisted on staying behind. However, she wanted me to go. Nan listened carefully while we continued to sip our coffees.

“So, he doesn’t know about the financial problems?” she asked.

I shook my head but then thought about it for a moment and shrugged.

“He knows I need the money,” I said to myself. “I’m sure he suspects my family is struggling. But I don’t think he really understands how bad it is. He doesn’t know about my father.”

“I’m in jail,” I told her.

“I don’t get it. Why not tell him? You know the Landry Corporation funds most of the businesses in the Wolf Kingdom, right?”

I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair.

My father is a proud man. He didn’t want to accept any help from the Lycans. A long time ago, he had a business plan that he presented to Alpha Gavin, but it was rejected. After that, he never tried again.

“I murmured. He wanted to do this on his own and prove that he was worthy. In the end, he made a deal with some loan sharks and borrowed much more money than the business was worth. Naturally, the business did well…”

He was doing okay, but not well enough to pay back the loan sharks. They had charged him a lot of interest, so now they wanted the money he borrowed plus the extra interest. Unfortunately, he didn’t have it. Because of this, they accused him of theft.

“Why not tell Gavin about this?” she asked. “He could help you easily, and I’m sure he would if you asked him.”

I shook my head and bit my lip, thinking it over.

“I’m embarrassed,” I admitted. “I don’t want him to think badly about my family. Plus, I don’t think he remembers rejecting my father’s business plan. He’ll ask questions about why this business wasn’t successful.”

“I don’t really have answers for him,” I admitted.

“You’re just like your father,” Nan said with a smile. “Too proud for your own good.”

I nodded because she was right.

“I knew it,” she said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “I can’t wait to see this mansion! You’ll invite me over sometime, right?” She raised her eyebrows, eager for my response.

“Of course,” I promised her. “Now that you know everything, you can come over whenever you want.”

“Come over whenever you want,” she said with a smile.

She clapped her hands together excitedly.

“Okay, let’s move on to some other exciting news,” she continued, leaning forward. “Did Gavin tell you about what’s happening next week?”

I frowned and shook my head.

I shook my head. I hadn’t spoken to him in a long time, especially not in the last few days, so I had no idea what was happening.

“What’s going on?” I asked her.

“He signed a contract to let a film crew…”

“Come to his pack and film an entire movie!” she said excitedly.

Working at the most famous resort in werewolf territory, I wasn’t surprised that Nan knew this information. People, especially rich ones, love to gossip, and Nan has a knack for hearing everything.

“That’s actually really awesome,” I told her, lost in thought. I wondered what the movie would be about.

“That’s not even the best part,” she replied quietly. “The…”

“Star of the movie is Skyla Sinclair, Judy!”

I almost dropped my jaw when I heard her say that.

“What, what?” I asked, my eyes wide and my heart racing in my chest.

She nodded excitedly, her smile bright.

“Yes!” she exclaimed excitedly. “She’s coming here next week!!”

Next week? The most famous and beautiful movie star and model will be coming here?

To Gavin’s pack?!
