The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1317

Chapter 1317
“I have convinced my younger brother to hand Jocelyn’s case over to you. What do you plan to do once the case is settled?”
He was asking about this case, which had no direct relation to Edith. Even if Anthony helped Griffon to win, Edith wouldn’t say ‘thank you’ to him for it.
Anthony, however, smiled bitterly and said, “At least I can use it as an excuse to have a few words with her.”
In other words, he just wanted to find a way, a thread, that will
lead him to a chance to communicate with Edith normally.
He raised his eyes and looked at Preston again. “After the
lawsuit is over, please organize a gathering. There are some things I want to clarify with her.”
She had completely let go of him now. If he told her the truth at this time, her parents shouldn’t blame him anymore, right?
Thinking of this, Anthony reminded Preston again,
“Remember, please invite everyone!”
She wouldn’t come to see him alone. He needed everyone
there so that he could find a peaceful way to communicate.
In fact, Preston thought that Anthony was going to great lengths, but then he remembered that Edith would never give Anthony a chance to talk to her alone. So he nodded and said, “Alright, once the matter is settled, I’ll take care of everything.”
Anthony said ‘thanks’ and then looked at Edith and Dylan again. “Do you think they will get a hole in one?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Edith jumped up in excitement. “Wow, Dylan, you’re amazing! You actually got a
hole in one!”
Dylan, standing behind her, put his hand in his pocket and looked in the direction of the golf course, smirking. “I saved you fifty thousand. How should you thank me?”
Edith’s youthful face was filled with a joyful smile. “Since your helped me practice golf these past two days, how about I
treat you to bungee jumping?”
Dylan glanced up and down at the petite and slender Edith. “Miss Knight actually likes extreme sports. I really couldn’t tell.”
Edith, with a baseball cap on her head, tilted her head and
smiled sweetly. “I didn’t like it either, but there used to be
someone who often took me to play these kinds of activities…”
Mentioning this, Edith seemed to remember something, and
the smile on her lips stiffened.
Dylan noticed the change in her expression and said, “That was the person you liked, right?”
Edith held onto the golf club, hesitated for a few seconds, and
nodded. “Yes, but that’s all in the past now.”
Dylan nodded, indicating his understanding.
Seeing that he didn’t seem to care about anything, Edith couldn’t help but ask, “What about you? Have you ever had
someone you liked?”
Dylan didn’t hide or dodge the question and openly admitted, “At my age, I must have had someone.”
“Then why didn’t you end up together?”
“She got mated. How could we be together?”
