Chapter 1337
Harper was also puzzled. In theory, if she didn’t provoke Preston, he shouldn’t have laid a hand on him, right?
At this moment, Jayden had already put away his smile and looked at Harper with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
“Maybe he just doesn’t like me. He threw away the fruit I gave him and didn’t want the flowers I sent…”
No explanation, just a casual remark, but it spoke volumes.
Because earlier, Harper didn’t provoke Preston, but he still knocked over the fruit basket.
So now, even if Preston wants to hit Jayden for no reason, it’s understandable.
Preston had never encountered a man like this before, so angry that he couldn’t even speak. After a while, he finally managed to say:
“Wait until I recover, I’ll show you how I’ll deal with you!”
The tenderness in Harper’s eyes for him gradually turned into a murky darkness.
“Jayden was just kindly visiting, even if you’re angry, there’s no need to take it out on him, right?”
When Preston heard these words, he shook with anger, his
eyes turning crimson!
“Do you know what he said to me just now, he…”
“No matter what he said, I believe him.”
Jayden felt wronged by Preston’s anger, but Harper’s words surpassed that.
Preston’s angry eyes gradually dimmed, filled with despair.
The pain from his injured spine tugged at every nerve, causing his heart to convulse and his whole body to tremble.
“Get out with your fiancé, I don’t want to see you for the rest of my life…”
He didn’t want to see her for the rest of his life.
Preston had never said such words before.
His face was pale, but his eyes were crimson, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Harper wanted to ask for clarification, but Jayden held her
hand.
“Preston is probably emotionally unstable due to his severe injuries. Let’s go first and let his girlfriend comfort him.”
If not for Jayden’s reminder, Harper would have almost forgotten that Preston’s girlfriend was still sitting here.
After Harper quieted down, she glanced at Preston before shifting her gaze away and followed Jayden out.
As soon as they left, Preston curled up in pain, and eventually the monitoring device alerted the medical staff.
Elsie saw Preston being so angry that his eyes rolled back and he fainted, and she panicked, frantically calling for a doctor.
Preston ended up in the emergency room again that day, but he managed to survive.
When he woke up again, the anger inside him was gone, replaced by a sense of hopelessness.
Elsie looked at Preston lying on the hospital bed, his face pale, feeling a mix of pity and resentment.
“You used to like me when we were young, but now after so many years, how did you fall in love with that old woman?”
Even a blind person could see how much Preston loved Harper, which was why he was so angered by her words that
he fainted.
“What does she can do besides making you angry?!”
