The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 87
The next morning, my leave from work was over.
It was hard to believe that the time had gone by so fast, and so much had happened.
I still needed to go into the Midwest Packs Corporation offices to wrap things up, but I was struggling to get out of bed. I was so
exhausted, and all I wanted to do was lie there and sleep
more.
After breakfast and taking my medicine, I felt a little better, but my face still looked pale.
I slathered on heavy makeup to cover my sickly condition, grabbed my purse, and left for work.
As soon as I entered the office, Brielle and Margaret came
over and asked, “Taya, did you quit?”
“Yup, I have.”
Brielle’s face showed her confusion. “But why? What happened for you to resign so quickly?”
Margaret also looked puzzled. “What are you going to do

after this? No one else pays as well as MPC.”

I forced a smile. “The salary and benefits are great here, but I have other plans.”
Margaret narrowed her eyes. “Did the Knight pack poach you to work directly for their contracts team?”.
“Oh my god!” Brielle’s big eyes got even bigger. “That’s the
one place that pays more than here. That’s HUGE to be able to work for them. They never hire non-shifters.”
Brielle’s cute look amused me. “No, I was talking about my personal plans unrelated to work.”
Margaret’s jealousy turned into information gathering-most likely so she was full of gossip to spread to everyone. “So, are you
not planning to work anymore?”
I shook my head. “No, I’m not going to be working anymore.”
Margaret was fishing for more, but I wasn’t giving her what she wanted. And she wasn’t a fan of that. When she didn’t
get the response from people that she wanted, she had a
tendency to turn catty.
“It seems like someone’s managed to marry above their station, apparently,” she sneered. “Or...do you have a wealthy
benefactor maybe?”

And that was exactly what I would have expected to come from Margaret.

But now, I didn’t have to try to appease her, and it was about time I stood up for myself.
“My plans and who they do or don’t involve aren’t any of your
business.”
