The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1218

Chapter 1218
Johnny, who was about the same height as Griffon, looked up and met his gaze. He was struck by the clear, watery eyes that seemed to hold a stream of emotions. Johnny’s heart ski pped a beat, and he instinctively looked away.
“I just met her. She brought a lot of people with her and said. they were going to your house to take the pup…”
“Then I have to go back and check!”
Taya pretended to be nervous and quickly got up, but Griffon held her waist.
“Harper needs to see you urgently. You go see her, and I’ll go back and check.”
Griffon probably couldn’t stand Johnny’s lame excuse, so he made up one himself to get rid of him.
Suppressing the urge to laugh, Taya took Griffon’ hand and pretended to be worried. “If it weren’t for the urgent matter, I would have gone with you.”
Griffon patted her hand and reassured her, “It’s the same for me to go alone. Besides, with me there, Jocelyn won’t dare to cause trouble in our house.”.
Seeing Taya nodding without any trace of acting, Griffon picked
up his coat and got up.
Johnny didn’t expect to fool Griffon so easily. The corners of his mouth slowly curved upwards.
Before he could even raise his eyebrows and show a victorious smile, Griffon, who had walked halfway, suddenly turned back.
“You’re quite familiar with Jocelyn. Why don’t you come with me?”
Johnny frowned. “Why should I follow you, I am an outsider, to deal with your business with Jocelyn?”
Griffon put his coat in the crook of his arm, put his hands in his pockets, and stared at Johnny with a half-smile. “Who knows if you’re deliberately trying to get rid of me and then kidnap my wife?”
