The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 141

Jackson ignored everyone’s expressions and raised his chin at the senior executive explaining the PowerPoint. “Continue.”
The executive had no choice but to continue. However, I noticed that he skipped over one of the income slides. Instead of giving all of the figures, he gave more general percentages. I’m sure he was afraid I would share the information.
It was clear that the Sterling pack execs weren’t pleased with my presence in the meeting, so I sat still and quiet during the duration of the presentation.

And that wasn’t really saying anything. Most wolf shifter packs were wealthy if they weren’t a newer pack. Longer life spans equaled more time to build wealth to then pass on to the next Alpha.
