Chapter 1323
Harper hesitated for a few seconds, then walked towards the
figure holding the car keys.
“What are you doing here?”
Hearing her voice, he froze, gripping the tree trunk.
Preston trembled as he took out a handkerchief from his
pants pocket, wiping the corner of his lips before standing up to face Harper.
“Is it not allowed to be in the wrong place?”
When the strong smell of alcohol filled the air, Harper couldn’t help but frown.
“Why have you been drinking so much…”
She knew his respiratory system wasn’t great and would usually advise him to drink less.
Now that they were in this situation, Harper didn’t have the right to say such things anymore.
Preston remembered how in the past, when he got drunk,
Harper would make him sobering tea and massage his stomach, caring for him gently. But now…
She just looked at him silently, even with a hint of disgust, taking a step back. Her dislike for him had already been evident in the smallest details, but he refused to believe it.
“Come here for a moment…”
Just as Harper took out her phone, intending to call his assistant to take him back, she saw Preston leaning against the tree, weakly beckoning her.
Sighing, Harper put her phone back in her pocket and
walked towards him. Before she could steady herself, Preston
suddenly reached out, grabbing her waist and pulling her into
his embrace.
“What are you doing?!”
Preston always hugged and held onto her like this, no wonder Jayden would get angry.
Harper thought about the promise she had made to Jayden earlier, to keep some distance from Preston.
But now he was embracing her again, what was this supposed to mean?
Let go
Harper struggled to push Preston away.
The man who held her refused to let go.
“Your lips have kissed someone else, and I won’t touch them
again!”
One sentence left Harper stunned.
“Then why are you holding me?”
Preston stared at her lips for a while before lifting her onto his
shoulder.
“What are you doing?!”
Hanging upside down on Preston’s back, Harper clenched her fists and pounded his back crazily.
“I have a boyfriend now, and you’re still like this. How can I face Jayden?!”
“If you’re not being faithful to him, does that mean you’re being faithful to me?!”
Filled with anger, Preston forcefully opened the car door and
shoved Harper inside, then quickly got in himself and locked
the doors.
