Chapter 0138 Judy's POV "Mom, you can't be serious!" I gasped. "How could you agree to such a thing." "I know it's not the ideal situation but-" "Not the ideal situation?!" "Don't raise your voice at me, Judy," my mother scolded, "We need the money, and I am running out of options." "If they are so keen on you selling our house for the money, then why not let us borrow money? I thought you were going to ask them!" I exclaimed, shaking my head at the logic. "It doesn't make any sense." "I couldn't bring myself to ask them. Especially after Raymond explained how he made srisky investments and he's worried about the turnout," she explained, sighing. "Plus, my pride wouldn't allowto ask them for handouts." "But you have no problems havingask Ethan for handouts?" I countered, raising my brows. "That's different," she murmured. "He's your fated mate and you were supposed to marry him." "Isn't Meredith your friend?" I asked her, giving her a pointed look. "Why not ask her for money?" She bit her lower lip and stared down at the towel in her hands.
"I just can't bring myself to do it. This is the easiest solution, and I'll still have my pride. Living here won't be so bad. They were kind enough to open their doors to us and I'm going to accept their offer." "Is living here not damaging to your pride as well?” I asked her.
She sighed and lifted her gaze to meet mine.

I'm not sure what else to do, but after selling the house, we will be a little closer to helping your father. That's all that matters toright now." Tears filled my eyes before I could stop them; I didn't want to cry here while I was in the Cash family manor. I didn't want to cry at all, but this couldn't be helped.
"I can't live here, Mom..." I whispered.
"Oh, sweetie. If this is because of Ethan and Irene, they won't be living here. They will be living in the packhouse after Ethan becomes our Alpha. You won't have to see them every day," she assured me." Besides, once he marks and mates with Irene, your mate bond will officially be broken, and you won't have to endure the pain of the severed bond any longer." "That's not what this is about," I told her, shaking my head. "His family doesn't like me. They will make my life a living hell. I was only here for a few minutes and his sister already spilled wine on me." She sighed.
+25 BONUS Chapter 0130 "I'm sure it was an accident. Kelsey is very sweet; she's only a child," my mother tried to justify.
"She's 18, Mom. She's an adult," I reminded her.
"That's hardly an adult," she murmured. "I'm sure she didn't mean anything by it." "She toldthat Ethan deserved better than me," I whispered. "That I wasn't good enough for her brother." "She's only being protective," my mother said. She cleaned off the hand towel before putting it away. She turned toand put her hands on my shoulders. Ifted my tear-filled gaze to meet hers and I could see the worry she had in her eyes. She was scared for our future, and I wasn't making things any easier for her.
I swallowed the lump in my throat and sniffled, wiping away the stray tears on my cheeks.
"I'm sorry," I whispered. “I don't mean to sound ungrateful. I know you are trying your best.” She nodded and took a deep breath.

"I love you, Judy," she toldsoftly. "I'm sorry to spring this news on you so quickly. But if you don't think you'll be able to live here, then maybe Nan will have an extra room for you?" Read the latest chapter ther
Her words were like a punch in the gut; so, it was either I live with the Cash family, or I had to find another place to go. My mother made her el choice and like everyone else in my life....she wasn't choosing me. She was leaving, abandoning me; just like Kelsey had said. Did she know about this? Maybe that was why she brought up the fact that everyone in my life leaves me. I bit my lower lip, trying to will my tears to go away. I didn't want to cry any further, but I wasn't sure if I could hold them in either.
"How about we enjoy the rest of the barbeque," she said, lifting my chin so my eyes would meet hers. Oh, by the way, do you know Alpha Gavin Landry? It seemed as if he knew you." I bit my lip and shook my head. I hated lying to her, but I couldn't tell her the truth.
"Not really," I told her. "I work as a tutor in his pack, so I met him a few times. Nothing too serious though." I decided on the half-truth.
