“I know you don’t want to see me again, but please rest assured, I won’t come again after this.”
Preston’s hand, which was placed under the blanket, tightened. slightly, but then seemed to relax quickly.
“What do you want from me?”
Seeing him speak calmly, a trace of apology appeared in Harper’s eyes.
“I already know about the misunderstanding with Jayden, I’m sorry for letting you be misunderstood.”
This belated apology from Harper made Preston’s nose tingle with sourness.
Despite feeling extremely aggrieved, he forced himself to act as if nothing was wrong.

“I’m not a pup, I won’t eat it…”
Preston tightly pursed his lips and awkwardly
But when Harper tried to put it in his mouth several times, he obediently ate it.
Actually, he was just a pup, easily placated with a piece of candy.
Harper knew this, but she had never done it before. He felt truly aggrieved.
Harper stared at Preston as he leisurely ate the candy, unable to hold back her tears.
