Mated by Contract to the Alpha (Rebecca and Dominic) novel Chapter 91

Chapter 91

Rebecca’s POV

:

(63)

“Sir, I was just explaining how my sister-” Jason began, his voice losing some of its theatrical outrage.

“I heard what you said.” Dominic’s tone was conversational, almost pleasant, which somehow made it more menacing. “You’ve made quite a scene in my building.”

The words “my building” seemed to hang in the air. I watched as Jason took in Dominic’s imposing presence–the immaculate suit (the one I had given him, I realized with a flutter low in my abdomen), the confident stance, the aura of absolute authority.

My brother’s eyes widened slightly. “Your building? You’re—”

“Dominic Sterling,” he confirmed with a slight nod. “CEO of Sterling Group. And your sister’s employer.”

I could almost see the calculations running through Jason’s mind as he processed this new information.

Dominic took a step forward, and I noticed how everyone in the vicinity instinctively stepped back, creating space around him. Even Jason’s voice had notably diminished in volume.

“I understand family matters can be urgent,” Dominic continued, his voice reasonable but with an undercurrent of steel. “I’m sorry to hear about your father’s condition. Perhaps I can offer a solution.”

He turned to me, his expression softening just slightly. “Rebecca, why don’t we discuss this in my office?”

Before I could respond, Jason jumped in, his eyes suddenly alight with opportunity. “Actually, sir, that would be very helpful. Our father needs-”

“I was speaking to Ms. Brown,” Dominic cut him off, his gaze never leaving my face.

Heat rushed through me at the intensity of his stare. Despite the humiliation of the situation, I felt a surge of strength from his silent support.

My mother looked between us, clearly confused by the dynamics she was witnessing. “Rebecca, you didn’t tell us your boss was so… understanding.”

The situation was spiraling out of control. The last thing I wanted was for my family to see Dominic as a potential source of money. I took a deep breath, standing straighter as I gathered my courage.

“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Sterling,” I said formally, conscious of our audience. “But this is a personal matter

that I can handle.”

Dominic’s eyes flickered with something–surprise, perhaps, or approval–before he nodded. “As you wish.”

Jason, however, wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip away. “Actually, sir, we really could use your help. Rebecca mentioned you might be able to-”

“I said no, I interrupted firmly. I turned to face my brother and mother directly. “I’m not going to let you do this here, at my workplace.”

I pulled out my phone and quickly navigated to my banking app. With steady fingers, I made a transfer while they watched.

“There,” I said, holding up the screen so they could see the completed transaction. “I’ve just transferred enough for three months of living expenses and all of Dad’s medication. I’ve sent it directly to Dad’s account, not yours, Jason.”

My brother’s face clouded. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

“It means exactly what I said.” I met his gaze unflinchingly, my voice stronger than I felt inside. “The money is for Dad’s care and your living expenses. If you gamble it away or get scammed again, that’s it. I won’t send more.”

Jason’s face reddened with anger. “You don’t know what it’s like! Not everyone can get lucky and land a cushy job

like-”
