The entire operating room soon only had Preston, exuding a cold aura, and Harper lying on the operating table.
"Why?" The man standing next to them didn't say anything extra, he just asked this one question.
Harper glanced at Mandy standing outside the operating room, frowned deeply, and then looked at Preston, who had a furious expression on his face.
"There's no why..."
She knew that Preston had come and the surgery couldn't proceed. She immediately got up from the operating table, but Preston grabbed her wrist tightly.
His grip was strong, so strong that his fingers deeply indented into her skin. Harper winced in pain, her face turning pale, but she bit her lip and didn't make a sound...
Her silence and refusal to look at him made Preston suddenly angry.
"Harper, is this your answer to me?"
They had agreed that she would give him an answer after returning home, but her answer turned out to be secretly aborting their pup.
When Preston received Mandy's phone call, his heart, which had been filled with anticipation to mate Harper, suddenly turned cold.
He had chased after her so desperately, but his efforts were shattered by Harper's repeated rejections.
"Tell me why. After I have the answer, I will never come to find you again."
Harper lowered her gaze and slowly raised her eyelashes, looking at Preston, who was filled with despair.
There needed to be closure between them, and they needed to have a clear conversation...
"I don't believe that you and Elsie didn't have a relationship."
Preston, who was staring at her intently, darkened his face.
"She explained it very clearly, it was her own manipulation. Why don't you believe her?"
"Because she gave me a recording pen afterward. Her so-called explanation was just a forced confession from your mother."
"Harper, I don't know about my mother's forced confession, and I don't know about Elsie's recording. I only know that I haven't slept with her."
He raised his hands and grabbed Harper's shoulders, staring into her eyes with utmost seriousness.
"I'm saying that I haven't done it. Do you believe me?"
Harper shook her head.
"No, I don't believe you."
