The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1371

Chapter 1371
Upon hearing her questioning tone, Jayden’s heart ski pped a beat. He quickly grabbed Harper’s shoulders and said, “I really love you. Don’t doubt my feelings for you because of this. I admit that my actions were selfish, driven by a desire to challenge authority. But I never considered the difficulties it would cause you, or how you would feel. It was my mistake.””
He took Harper’s hand and placed it on his cheek. “How about this? You can slap me a few times to vent your anger.””
Last time, Harper forgave him after he showed weakness. But this time, Harper remained indifferent. “Senior, how did you know that Preston was harassing me?”
Except for that time in the capital, when Preston mistakenly thought they were in a hotel room and barged in, causing a scene, he hadn’t come to find her again. This time, they encountered each other at the golf course and Preston went
crazy after seeing Harper and Jayden kissing. But Jayden
wasn’t there this time. How did he know?
When Harper asked this question, Jayden awkwardly avoided her gaze. The kiss at the golf course was intentional. He knew Preston wouldn’t have left, so he kissed Harper to prove himself and anticipated that Preston would cause trouble
afterwards.
Sure enough, Preston got into a car accident the next day. Jayden felt jealous of Harper’s concern for him, but he had to show magnanimity and urged Harper to go visit Preston at the hospital. Jayden followed closely behind, wanting to provoke Preston. After all, when they were in the capital, Preston made it difficult for Jayden to find him in court. They already had a grudge, so Jayden knew Preston wouldn’t let him off easily.
But how could he explain these thoughts to Harper? Jayden found a random excuse, saying, “I accidentally saw it…”
Harper persistently asked, “Where did you see it?”
Jayden couldn’t come up with an answer, so he quickly changed the subject. “Preston loves you so much, he must be bothering you all the time. Even without seeing it, I can guess.”
