Judy’s POV
“Matthew! What have you o
done?? ho
I heard Irene shrieking from the back porch steps. I hadn’t even known she
was there, and I wondered how long she had been watchingus for.
I watched as Matt’s face turned pale and his eyes grew misty with unshed tears.
“I’m so sorry, Judy,” he said, his bottom lip trembling “I didn’t mean to. I-” his voice trailed off as he hiccupped.
Sometimes I forget that he’s just a little boy until moments like these. My gaze softened and I gave him a small smile as I knelt
down in front of him.
“It was an accident,” I told him, putting my hand on his shoulder and giving it a gentle squeeze. “I know you didn’t mean to and
I’m not mad at you, Matt.”
“Dad is going to be so upset,” he said in a low whisper, his gaze shifting downward.
“Your father won’t have to know a thing,” I told him. “I won’t say a word to him. It’ll be our secret.”
“Really?” He asked, lifting his gaze to meet mine.
I smiled.
He wiped at his cheeks where a couple of tears had fallen and then he gave me a smile as he nodded.
“Okay,” he said gently.
He turned and walked back towards the villa. I sighed and stood up, brushing the dirt off my pants.
“You are really good with him,” Irene said as she walked towards me. “I’ve never seen anyone like that with him. It’s no wonder
he likes you.”
“I guess I’m just good with kids,” I said, shrugging casually. I turned towards my bag that was resting against a tree nearby. I
grabbed it and started to clean up my stuff, fully aware that Irene was watching my every move..
“I think it’s something more,” she said thoughtfully. “He sees something in you that he didn’t see in the others. It’s fascinating
honestly.”
I couldn’t help but smile at that thought.

“He’s a special little boy and deserves the world,” I told her I shouldered my bag and faced her. “I’m going an Uber and get
going.”
Her eyes widened.

“You can’t leave with your shirt like that!” She said, staring down at the shirt that was barely hanging on my body. Thankfully, I
was wearing a sports bra underneath, but still... I felt exposed and uncomfortable. “You are barely covered and the last thing you
want is a stranger looking at you. Come with me.”

Irene didn’t seem to care. She continued to pull me along with her down the hallway until we reached a door, I assumed was her
bedroom.

She pushed the door open and tugged me along with her until I practically stumbled into the room. She then proceeded to shut
the door behind me.
I wrapped my arms around my body, unsure of what to do or say. I felt a little uncomfortable in her room and the first scent that
slapped me in the face as soon as I stepped foot in here was Ethans. I stared at the bed that I knew they’d shared numerous
times in the past and my stomach twisted at the very thought.
On her nightstand was a picture of her and Ethan holding one another, looking into each other’s eyes like they meant the world
to each other. I would have to give credit where it was due. Ethan was a great actor. I knew he didn’t care about Irene; he was
only using her to solidify his role as Alpha
It wasn’t fair to Irene and a part of me wanted to warn her about him, but it wasn’t my place. It would only hurt her and there was
a big chance she wouldn’t even believe the
I turned away from the picture and watched as she rummaged through her closet.
“You really don’t have to do this,” I told her; I was seconds away from backing out of this room, not sure how long I could handle
being in here any longer.
“Nonsense,” she told me from over her shoulder. “It’s no big deal. Plus, you can’t walk around without a proper
shirt.”
