The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 1235
When Taya looked puzzled, Alice gently patted her hand and
said with a serious tone:
“I am sorry for your mother’s death. I have always wanted to apologize to her, but I never had the chance. So, I am trying to make amends by finding her daughter. I don’t want to carry any regrets or guilt to the afterlife.”
Upon hearing this, Taya furrowed her brows slightly and asked, “Did you kill my mother?”

Alice shook her head and said regretfully, “No, I didn’t harm her. When she came to me asking for money with her pup, I refused to lend her any. Actually, I could have helped her, but my parents didn’t allow it. They said whoever dared to lend money to Sumasa would have their legs broken. The Carmine pack’s rules were strict, and no one dared to disobey my parents…”
As Alice spoke, the light in her eyes was no longer gloomy but tinged with a hint of remorse. Taya felt that Alice was not lying to her.
However, she had no right to speak for her mother. So, she sat in front of the sickbed, looking at the woman who was half-leaning on it, pale and bloodless, with a complicated expression.
Alice held Taya’s hand tightly, as if she had caught her mother’s
hand, and never let go. “Sumasa and I were only a year apart. We were close sisters since pup period. But because I was too obedient to my parents and refused to lend her money, it indirectly caused her death. Every time I think of this, I feel extremely guilty and can’t sleep at night…”
Speaking of this, she looked into Taya’s eyes, with glistening tears, “I’m sorry for your mother. That’s why my son has been searching for her daughter all over the world, just to make up for the regret of the past. Don’t think too much about it…”
Perhaps guessing that Griffon had already uncovered the truth, Alice’s emotional words were mostly true, without any falsehood. Unfortunately, Taya wouldn’t believe her just like that. “The person is already gone. You found her daughter just to say sorry. What’s the use?”
