The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338 

A week after Taya died, Jackson returned to Arcadia. 

He went directly to see Harper and handed a thumb drive to her when she answered the door. 

“This is everything I have. I’ve transferred it all to you…money, real estate, the whole enchilada.” 

Harper was floored, speechless. She stood there staring at him blankly, her mouth hanging open. 

Jackson smiled calmly. “I promised Taya I would take good care of you. And I don’t want to come back here; I need to focus on being the Sterling pack’s Alpha.” 

A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. “I should have taken better care of you before…” 

Harper regained her thoughts and handed the thumb drive back to Jackson. “No. I can take care of myself.” 

Jackson’s wolf rose to the surface, and the Alpha command was heavy in his voice. “You will take it,” he growled. 

Harper didn’t know what to say after hearing that, and the Alpha command in his voice wouldn’t let her refuse. 

He turned to leave. 

 

“Where are you going?” 

Jackson looked back and smiled at her. “I’m going to the cemetery to see her.” 

For some reason, Harper felt uneasy when she saw his smile. 

 

She looked at his back and blurted out, “Silas, you’re my only relative in this world. Don’t do anything stupid.” 

When he heard this, his eyes darkened with sadness. 

He didn’t look back and just waved his hand at Harper. 

Jackson bought a bouquet of flowers on his way to the cemetery. 

When he arrived, a figure was kneeling on one knee in front of Taya’s gravestone. 

The wolf shifter looked so haggard that Jackson almost didn’t recognize him. 

Griffon’s appearance took him so much by surprise that Jackson gave the Alpha a minute before walking up and placing the flowers in front of the stone. 

The two men stood in front of the gravestone and looked at the photo of Taya on it. They did not speak, nor did they drive the other away. 

After a long silence, Jackson asked, “Did you love her?” 

Griffon felt a sharp pain in his heart and didn’t reply. 

Jackson continued. “Do you think she loved you?” 

Griffon finally raised his head and looked at Jackson with bloodshot eyes, his irises changing to amber with his wolf. 

Jackson took out a wedding photo from his suit pocket and placed it in front of Taya’s tombstone. 

When Griffon looked at the photo, his face turned paler. “You… Did you mate her?” 

Jackson couldn’t help but smile. “She’s mine. An elder performed the mating ceremony before she passed.” 

Griffon picked up the picture. When he saw Taya and Jackson’s happy smiles, something snapped. 

He tore the picture to shreds while Jackson calmly looked on.
