The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1620

Chapter 1620 

His frail and weak body trembled uncontrollably, as if struck by thunder, the pain spreading from within, permeating every inch of him. Even the tips of his fingers throbbed with an unbearable ache. 

Ilis body was too weak to stand, so he had to crawl on his palms to reach Stella. He was almost afraid to touch her, but couldn’t help but raise his hand and gently brush her face… 

The icy coldness he felt confirmed what Henry, a doctor himself, quickly realized: Stella was truly gone, the woman he loved most 

was gone… 

Henry’s face turned paler by the second, and tears poured down like raindrops on a window, uncontrollable and endless… 

Not wanting anyone to see his despair, he kept his head lowered and silently, without a word, took Stella from Taya’s hands. As he cradled her in his arms, his fingers tightened slowly, as if holding a priceless treasure, using every ounce of strength. 

With his cheek pressed against Stella’s lifeless face, he softly caressed it twice, reluctantly pulling away as if afraid to apply too much pressure… 

When he lowered his gaze, tears fell onto her face, right into Stella’s empty eye sockets. The glistening tear drops remained motionless, seemingly melding with her skin, as if to say, Henry, 

don’t cry…. 

But Henry couldn’t help but cry uncontrollably, the pain in his heart causing his tear ducts to flow freely… 

After confirming that Henry, the man silently shedding tears, was indeed Stella’s lawyer, someone approached him and handed him a handwritten letter… 

“This was written by Stella herself, asking me to personally deliver it to you.” 

Henry lifted his tear-filled eyes and glanced at the envelope. Slowly, he extended his hand and touched the smooth surface of the paper with his fingertips, feeling as if he had touched a heavy mountain that took his breath away… 

He held the letter in his hand without immediately opening it, holding it tightly along with his emotions, as if it were his last chance, refusing to let go… 

But he couldn’t hold on any longer. The body needed to be taken away, and the police had given Griffon enough face by not moving the body without proper procedures. However, any further delay would be against the rules. 

Normally, as a doctor, Henry should remain calm, but this time he was even more crazed than Taya and Harper. He refused to let go of Stella, holding on tightly 

As a group of police officers desperately tried to drag him away, he remained unmoving like a statue, sitting by the 

Hoor-to-ceming window, mieless, silently watching the person in his arms… 

In the end, it was Griffon who approached, kneeling in front of Henry and patting his shoulder, saying, “Stella is going to find Eric. Don’t let her wait too long.” 

It was this sentence that made Henry let go. It was a cruel sentence, enough to make him collapse, but it was also the truth. Stella had to wait for her ashes to be scattered into the sea, drifting along with the waves, to coincidentally meet Eric, who was also drifting. Everyone understood this symbolic meaning. 

Stella had been sent for cremation, but Henry didn’t go. He sat there, leaning against the spot, and opened the envelope in his hand. As he read the first few words, tears streamed down his face once again… 

“Henry, I want to apologize to you countless times. 

I promised to mate you, but I didn’t fulfill that promise. 

I also promised to send Eric to jail, but I failed to do that too. 

It seems that since I met you, I haven’t followed through with anything I said or promised. 

I feel so sorry that being with me only brought you temporary happiness, without any real rewards. I truly apologize. 

I also admit that I’m a failure. I said I hated Eric, but it seems that after he died, my hatred disappeared, leaving me empty 

inside 

Even though I know he’s dead and I can never find him again, I still want to find him in my own way. 

I know the person I hurt the most is you, Henry. But I don’t want to deceive you anymore, and I don’t want to deceive myself either. So, I can only apologize countless times.
