The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover by Caesar Erickson novel Chapter 1791

Chapter 1791

Looking at the despondent Taya, Johnny remained silent for a long time, so long that Taya thought he wouldn't respond.

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, everyone has different perspectives and thoughts," he finally said.

"Perhaps," Taya agreed, her eyes shifting to the window, her face filled with sadness, which tugged at Johnny's heartstrings.

Johnny didn't say anything more, he just sat quietly with her.

After a while of silence, Taya seemed to remember something and turned back to look at Johnny, who was sitting next to her. "You said something to me in lip language that day, but it was blocked by blood stains, I didn't see it," she said, holding the cup in her hand, looking at Johnny with a puzzled expression.

"What did you say?"

Johnny was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Taya to remember, and he blushed slightly.

"It's nothing," he said.

Taya tilted her head slightly, looking at Johnny with a skeptical look. "You'd better tell me, otherwise I'll keep thinking about it."

Johnny could have confessed 'I like you' to Taya, but he knew she would follow Griffon if he reached out to her.

In the face of such a life-and-death love, Johnny's feelings didn't really matter.

So, it was better not to tell her, to avoid burdening her in the future. "I told you to remember to send the bonus to my house," he finally said.

He thought she would say something touching, but it turned out she was only concerned about the bonus.

"Are you so short of money?"

Johnny, with red eyes, nodded slightly. "Yes."

He missed his only chance to confess love. It would be false to say he didn't regret it, but their current distance was just right.

Johnny turned away from the light, and Taya couldn't see the faint mist in his eyes. "Do you have paper and pen? I'll write down the address where Erebus will send the bonus, and you can go get it yourself."

"No rush," Johnny replied, putting away all the complex emotions in his eyes, taking the cup from her hand.

He placed the cup back on the bedside table and then took a clean cup, poured some warm water, and handed it to her.
