NovelUpdateChapter 0062 Judy's POV "Oh, hey Judy," Irene said as she recovered from Ethan's hold. Her cheeks were flushed and that smile never left her lips. She ran her fingers through her hair and gavea sheepish look as she stepped into the parlor.
Matt lifted his gaze from his homework to look up at his sister.
"How are things going in here?" She asked, taking the loveseat across the room, Ethan sat beside her, his fingers entwined with hers. They were all lovey-dovey and close to one another. I I wondered if she knew that he was over at my house last night while she was desperately trying to call him.
"Great, just finishing up sAlgebra," I answered, turning back to Matt. I tried my best to ignore Irene and Ethan while he whispered sweet nothing into her ear, making her giggle.

"Thank you, Maria," Irene said politely.

"Gag," Matt muttered, rolling his eyes. "Can't you do that somewhere else?"

I pressed my lips in a thin line and glared at him; he was doing this on purpose to get a rise out ofand I wasn't going to let it work. "You don't have to watch us," Irene snapped back.
She snuggled into Ethan who kissed the top of her head.
Not for the first time, I wondered if Ethan had something to do with the fact that my dead found out about my dyslexia. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if he did something as cruel as that to try and pushout of college. The thought made my stomach twist and turn and was suddenly feeling sick.
I turned away from them and drowned myself in Matt's work. We worked tirelessly for the next hour while Irene and Ethan continued to snuggle and flirt on the loveseat. It's almost like they didn't have anything better to do with their time.
