The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209
Taya could only vaguely hear Damian, but she heard enough.
She stood there and didn’t move. When Damian opened the
door and saw her, his handsome face froze.
“Taya…”
After a moment of hesitation, Damian quickly reacted and pointed to his phone. “One of my pack members has a problem with something, and I’m trying to negotiate with
them to give me more time…”
His explanation was reasonable, but he didn’t make clear what he meant by “It’s too obvious if I visit too frequently…”
Taya didn’t intend to question him directly, so she said calmly, “Why are you explaining so much to me? I didn’t even hear
what you said.”
Damian’s tense expression relaxed. “I’m just afraid you’ll
misunderstand, so I want to explain it clearly.”
Taya picked up the plate and walked to the kitchen. “I was just about to open the door when you opened it. What a
coincidence!”

Seeing her put the plate in the refrigerator, Damian’s doubts. were dispelled.
She must have come to the kitchen to put things away and
didn’t mean to eavesdrop on him.
Damian nodded and walked out.
Taya turned around to look at Damian’s back, feeling uneasy.
She hesitated about whether to tell Harper.
If she told Harper about this, it might affect their relationship. But she would feel guilty if something was happening and she didn’t tell Harper.
After hesitating, Taya finally took out her phone and sent a message to Harper, telling her everything she had just heard.
She didn’t question Damian directly just now because she didn’t have the right to do so. Besides, she didn’t want to alert him to anything amiss. Damian was so nice to Harper that he didn’t seem to be the kind of person who would let her down. And they were still newly mated.
It was better to just tell Harper and let her deal with it
however she wanted to.

Harper quickly replied. [Okay, I’ll secretly check his phone tonight.]
Taya knew that Harper had always been calm regarding relationships, so she wasn’t too worried about her.
[Let me know what you find.] Then, Taya turned off her phone.
When she walked out of the kitchen, Harper was just coming out of the bathroom, and the two of them exchanged glances.
Usually, when Harper encountered something bad related to
Taya, she would explode, her wolf rushing to the surface to
protect Taya.
However, she was pretty good at hiding her emotions regarding her own affairs.
Seeing Harper leave to go home calmly, her arm linked with
Damian’s, Taya felt a heavy weight in her heart.
She was very afraid that Harper would find something on her
mate’s phone.
Taya didn’t dare to fall asleep. She sat on the sofa, hugged
her phone, and waited for Harper’s message.
At about two o’clock, her phone dinged.

[I’ve checked, It’s just a pack member who needs help, and it’s a man.]
When Taya saw the message, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She quickly typed back, [I’m sorry, Harper. I was too
suspicious.]
