The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 622
The tears that flowed down in torrents stung Eric’s heart deeply. His hand that was behind trembled uncontrollably.
He clenched his fingers and walked towards Stella, only to be stopped by Harper and Taya who were both rushing out of the villa.
Harper held Stella and looked down at her face to check for any injuries, while Taya stood in front of Stella and frowned at Eric.
“What are you doing?”
Taya didn’t quite understand Eric. He obviously cared about Stella, why did he have to resort to violence against her?
Eric ignored Taya’s question. His dark red eyes were confused and lost, staring tightly at Stella.
Stella, who was still covering her face, was also looking at him. The emotions she disguised in her eyes faded away, leaving only disappointment.
After a moment of eye contact, Stella was the first to speak. “Eric, when I said I loved you and wanted to mate you all these years, it
was all a lie. I don’t love you, and I don’t want to mate you…”
Eric’s handsome face turned pale at her words.” What are you
saying…”

Stella lowered her hand and revealed a face that was badly swollen. She tugged at the torn corner of her mouth and continued, “You hurt me in the past, and now I’m hurting you once. We’re even now. This is where our relationship ends.”
After she finished speaking, she grabbed Harper and Taya’s hands, leaning on their support, and turned around.
Eric watched her graceful back, feeling his heart ache.
“Stella, have you never loved me?”
Was everything just for revenge?
Stella stopped in her tracks, turned around, and looked at the figure that had accompanied her for half of her life. All of a sudden, a smile appeared on her face, “I loved you, very very
much…”
Since the year she was fourteen, the moment he, the young man.
she called Eric since pup period, bravely rescued her from the sea,
she had fallen in love with him.
Such a strong love made her follow him no matter how he bullied
or beat her. She never wavered in her affection for him, and even
hoped that Eric would fall in love with her. But…
Stella cried again, “Do you know that I studied medicine Becaus of you? It was because you once told me that if I could become an excellent doctor like you, you would mate me. It was just a joke to you, but it made me spend my whole life learning medical skills that I don’t even like…”
Eric heard her words and was even more pained, finding it difficult to breathe. “You never told me…”
Since she was young, she was silent. She would only follow him, unable to express emotions or even laugh. Faced with his teasing and mocking, Stella would only look at him quietly. Stella, who couldn’t be driven away no matter how hard he tried, was it
because she loved him?
Stella’s eyes were filled with tears, but she smiled as she looked at Eric. “On the night of my eighteenth birthday, I wanted to tell you that I had feelings for you. But Eric, what did you do that night? You sent people to gang-r*pe me. There were so many people holding me down on the ground. At that moment, I kept shouting your name, hoping you could come and save me. But you just sat in the car and did nothing!”
Stella raised her chin and pushed back the tears in her eyes.
When she looked at Eric again, there was no love in her eyes, only
hatred.
