But stay here, just in case.
Will do, Taylor said as he watched me get out of the car and walk towards the front doors.
The butler opened the door before I reached the top step of the porch.
Alpha Gavin Landry, its an honor to have you in my home and having dinner with my family and 1,1 Raymond said with a broad smile.
I have to admit though, I was quite curious about the reason behind this meeting.
Theres no reason, Raymond.
I figured if my daughter is going to marry into this family, I need to get to know you a little better.
After all, we are all family now, arent we? I said, raising my brows at him.
He looked nervous and had a small trail of sweat on his forehead.
Yes, of course, he said, nodding his head.
I apologize.
Im glad to have you here.
Well, hello there, Alpha, Kelsey, the 18 year old Cash daughter said as she made her way down the stairs.
When I heard you were joining us for dinner, I had to get the perfect dress for the occasion.
Do you like it? It was a shimmering gold dress that sparkled under the crystal chandelier.
Hmm, I murmured.
Meredith and Kelsey will take you into the dining hall, Raymond said.
I have a quick call to make and then Ill join you shortly.
I nodded and went with the girls into the dining hall.
I paused when I saw a woman seated at the table.
She was wearing a casual evening gown, and her dark hair was pinned out of her face.
She looked up at me with familiar warm eyes and a smile tipped the corner of her lips.
# Alpha Landry.
Its so good to see you again, she said Mrs.
Montague, I said, taking her hand and bringing it to my lips.
She chuckled at the gesture but when she saw the scowl that Meredith was sporting, her smile to into a deep frown as she pulled her hand away.
Shelly, I didnt think you were joining us this evening.
You know we were expecting an important guest, Meredith said with a fake plastered smile.
Michele Montagues face reddened as she glanced at her empty plate.
Im sorry ; nobody informed me that I wasnt invited.
I have been eating dinner with your family every ir night these last few days, she said softly.
I can go Id like it if you stayed, I said sharply.
Please.
She looked surprised, as did the others.
But nobody would go against me, an order.
Of course, she said, relaxing in her seat.which was why I spoke it like Its not a problem at all, Meredith murmured.
Please, take a seat, Alpha She motioned for the spot directly next to Kelsey, who kept staring at me and batting her lashes.
I felt sick being this close to her, but I took my seat anyway.
Seeing Michele here was proof that Judy was also here.
It wouldnt be much longer before she also joined us for dinner.
Raymond entered the room shortly after and whispered something to one of the maids.
She nodded and went with a few others towards the kitchen.
Sorry for the delay.
Shes going to start bringing out our meal now, Raymond said as he took his seat at the head of the table.
1 frowned.leing that ther But not everyone is here yet, I said, glancing around the table and wasnt an empty chair left..
Oh, were you expecting someone else, Alpha? Raymond asked with a frown.
I wasnt aware.
Your Beta didnt inform me … I glanced at Michele Montague who looked a bit sheepish.
I got the feeling that she knew who I was talking about.
She bit her bottom lip and stared down at her plate, refusing to meet my eyes.
I guess not, I murmured, still confused, keeping it quiet for right now.
Soon, the maids were returning with our food, and they served us both the meal and wine.
Daddy, the maids have been working so hard.
I think we should give them the rest of the evening off, Kelsey said as she nibbled on her steak And who will clean up after dinner? Raymond asked raising his brows.
Ill take care of it, she said, shrugging.
Its honestly no problem.
Its the least I can do.
Raymond thought it over carefully before relenting and nodding.
Okay, he said, taking a big bite of his food.
If you dont mind.
She grinned as she continued to eat her food.
We spoke casually for most of the meal ; I couldnt help but worry about Judy though.
She was somewhere in this manor … I could smell her as if she was right next to me.
Her mother kept avoiding my gaze and continued to eat without contributing to the conversation.
