The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 

Jackson gazed over at Lena. 

His voice was deadly calm as he spoke, a hint of his Alpha voice coming out. 

“Miss Wilton, I brought my companion to your house as a guest, and you put your hands on her. Is this how you were brought up in your pack? Does the Wilton pack condone actions such as these?” 

Seeing that Jackson had found out so quickly that she had hit Taya, Lena’s heart skipped a beat. But her anger quickly dispelled it. 

He hadn’t even bothered to ask what had happened and was already defending Taya. This was too much! 

Lena couldn’t hold back her temper anymore, and her wolf’s 

hot–headedness rushed to the surface. “You didn’t even ask 

who hit her before blaming me. Is the Sterling pack always so quick to rush to judgments?” 

Jackson’s expression turned darker. “Are you saying that you did not put your hands on my woman?” 

“Even if I did, you didn’t ask me why I would do so. Why would your assumption be that she didn’t deserve it?” 

Jackson snorted. “I know Ms. Palmer very well. And there is nothing in her character that would warrant someone putting their hands on her.” 

Lena hadn’t expected Jackson to defend his companion like that, to defend a human so readily over another wolf shifter. She was so angry that her face turned pale. “Jackson, how can you do this to me-” 

*** 

Jackson wasn’t interested in Lena’s act. 

He promptly cut her off. “Apologize to Ms. Palmer!” 

Although Henry was his good friend, Lena meant nothing to 

him. They had only met a few times, and there wasn’t any 

history between them to make it necessary for him to treat 

Lena with the respect it was clear she believed she deserved. 

She might be a wolf and technically outrank Taya, but compared to Jackson, Lena was nothing. The Wilton pack might be wealthy, but they had no power. And they certainly didn’t wield the power the Sterling pack did. Frankly, they were lucky he had even come to this event.
