The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1610

Chapter 1610 

Eric died, leaving no trace behind, like a gust of wind that 

came and went, taking nothing with it, disappearing without a 

trace. 

Stella didn’t ask where his ashes were scattered, or in which country and sea, she just stared at the grave without even a memorial image, motionless for a long time. 

It wasn’t until the rainwater in the Imperial Capital poured down, sheltered by Andre’s umbrella, that she slowly snapped back to reality and said, “Let’s go” to Andre… 

She returned to Arcadia and resumed her busy life, treating patients, occasionally working in pediatrics, looking after pups, and taking care of Henry… 

She seemed the same as usual, except that she needed medication to fall asleep at night and never dreamed of Eric… 

Every time she dreamed, she was shooting a gun, and each shot would startle her awake, leaving her staring blankly at her own hands… 

After it happened multiple times, she increased her medication to suppress these nightmares. 

patient consultation, she saw Eric, elegantly dressed in a white coat, stepping out of an ambulance… 

He looked just like he did when he was alive, meticulously combing his long hair back to reveal a smooth forehead. Under his picturesque brow, there were deep blue eyes that hid his emotions… 

Looking into those blue eyes, Stella’s heart suddenly stopped beating. She took hesitant steps towards the owner of those eyes… 

“Eric…” 

Eric heard the voice and lowered his gaze to Stella, who was much shorter than him. 

“I’m here.” 

When he said those words, his lips curled up into a gentle smile. 

Seeing that smile, Stella’s eyes uncontrollably turned sad. 

She rushed over and hugged Eric with all her strength, using every ounce of her body’s energy to hold onto him. 

The doctor being embraced felt a slight stiffness, then awkwardly patted Stella’s back. 

“I’m Alex.” 

Those words brought Stella back to reality. She quickly let go of the doctor she had embraced, unable to believe it. She stared at Alex’s face and, once she recognized who he was, Stella lowered her head, said “Sorry,” and hurriedly ran into the restroom. 

She turned on the faucet and desperately splashed water on her face, repeatedly warning herself, “Stella, you don’t love Eric anymore. The way you feel now is just guilt after learning the truth. You’re hallucinating because you miss Eric…” 

She deceived herself like this, but suddenly felt a pair of warm hands wrap around her waist from behind and pull her into an embrace. 

Startled, she turned her head and saw Eric with a both domineering and mischievous expression… 

He held her tightly and slid his fingers up her waist until his index finger touched her chin. He applied a slight force, then curled it up… 

Stella, forced to look up, stared at Eric as he lowered his head. She fixated on his dark red eyes, gazing at his eyelashes, his

eyes, and his skin, but she didn’t dare reach out to touch him, unsure if the person in front of her was real or a figment of her imagination… 

She allowed Eric to hold her without resistance, not moving or avoiding him like she used to, just looking up at him. 

Seeing her behave so obediently, Eric’s mood seemed to improve. He gently touched her face, then grabbed her hand and placed it on his lower back…
