The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson Chapter 401

Chapter 401

Seeing that she was thanking her, Stella felt even more guilty. She still remembered what had happened back then.

But in front of Jackson, even if there were a lot of things she wanted to tell her, she was not in a hurry to speak.

After a brief chat with Taya, she went to do a leg check-up on Jackson, mainly to check the atrophy.

He had nerve damage in his legs, and it was difficult for him

to stand up again. His main priority now was to prevent his legs from atrophying too much.

After the examination, Taya couldn’t wait to ask, “Stella, how’s his leg? When can he stand up?”

When Stella was about to tell the truth, the person in the wheelchair clenched one hand into a fist, pretended to cough, and motioned her with his eyes not to tell the truth.

Stella frowned. She didn’t understand why Jackson would hide it from Taya. After hesitating for a moment, she said to Taya,

“You can ask him.”

She didn’t want to hide someone’s illness anymore. If she

encountered such a thing in the future, she would leave it to

the patient.

Taya looked back at Silas and saw that he was avoiding her

gaze, so she knew that he was lying to her.

She didn’t expose Silas and just looked at Stella, asking, “Stella, can his legs still be cured?”

Stella still looked at Jackson. It was not until he nodded that she told Taya the truth. “I can’t cure him.”

The cruel answer made Taya’s face turn pale, and the guilt in

her heart became heavier.

Seeing her like this, Silas quickly comforted her. “Taya, don’t worry. I’m used to sitting in a wheelchair. It’s fine.”

Hearing this, Taya took a deep breath as if she had made up her mind. She promised him, “Silas, no matter how long you sit

in a wheelchair, I will stay by your side and take care of you for

the rest of my life.”

When Stella heard this promise, she frowned slightly. If Ms. Palmer had to spend the rest of her life taking care of Silas, what about Alpha Knight?

Silas was stunned for a moment. His expression was complicated, but he didn’t know how to face it.

He knew in his heart that her desire to take care of him was

just out of guilt towards him.

He knew that guilt was not equal to love, but he was selfish

and wanted to keep her by his side.

This ambivalence trapped him, making him once again surrounded by darkness, fall into an endless black hole,

unable to extricate himself.

་

In the end, he loosened his clenched fists and chose not to say a word. He had loved her for so many years, so let him be

selfish once.

Taya did not notice the change in his mood. She picked up her phone and smiled at him. “Silas, before that, I have to deal with someone. When I’m done, I’ll bring Harper to see you.”

After saying that, she planned to go back and negotiate with Amon. Seeing that she was about to leave, Stella quickly followed her with the medicine cabinet.

After the two of them walked out of the villa side by side, Taya said to her, “Stella, I’ll take a taxi back. I’ll see you at the hospital when I’m free.”

Stella held down her hand that was holding the phone and

said with a smile, “Taya, please take my car. I’ll send you back.”

Taya seemed to know what she would say after she got into her car. She quickly shook her head and refused, “No, I’d

better take a taxi.”

Seeing that she insisted, Stella did not insist. Instead, she asked softly, “Can you listen to me for a few words?”

After ordering a taxi, Taya looked up at Stella and said, “If it has something to do with Griffon, you’d better not say it. I

don’t want to hear it.”

Seeing that she was so resistant, Stella felt a little embarrassed, but she still said cheekily, “In fact, Alpha

Knight…”

“Stella.”

Taya interrupted her. “I’ve already made it clear to him. Don’t

mention him again.”
