    Chapter 1339


    Jayden turned around and left the security aisle.


    Harper returned home, unable to sleep as she thought about how Preston looked so distressed with


    red-rimmed eyes.


    She got up and went to the terrace, lighting a cigarette.


    At that moment of smoking, she suddenly remembered Preston, who would always take the cigarette


    out of her mouth.


    “Smoking is bad for your health. Don’t smoke again next


    time…”


    The mostmon thing he said to her was to advise her not


    to smoke.


    Looking at the lit cigarette between her fingertips, Harper extinguished it for the first time.


    Then, she grabbed a jacket, quickly got in the car, and headed to the hospital.


    Elsie wasn’t there at the moment, and there was only Preston.

    in the hospital room.


    When he saw here in, Preston remained calm and nced at her.


    Seeing his gaze, Harper paused, as if just remembering that he had said he never wanted to see her


    again.


    She stood at the doorway, staring at Preston. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gathered the


    courage and walked


    over.


    “Are you… okay?”


    Harper hade to ask about what happened during the day, but when she saw Preston’s pale face,


    she involuntarily expressed concern.


    The person lying in the hospital bed ignored her, seeming to have no intention of speaking to her or


    seeing her again, with his eyes closed.


    Seeing him like this, Harper didn’t know how to start the conversation. She stood in front of the hospital


    bed, feeling awkward for quite a while before finally mustering the courage to ask him.


    “I came to ask you, why did you hit Jayden?”


    This usation undoubtedly struck Preston’s heavy heart like


    another


    “What, I hit Jayden and you’re indignant on his behalf?”


    “I’m not indignant on his behalf, I’m afraid that you…”


    “Afraid that once I’m better, I’ll go and hit him?”


    Preston stared coldly at Harper.


    “Don’t worry, once I’m better, I will definitely teach him a


    lesson!”


    From the time he was young until now, Preston had never


    endured this kind of humiliation!


    Even if Harper stood up for Jayden, he would make him pay the price!


    The killing intent that shed in Preston’s eyes made Harper


    tremble inwardly.


    “Don’t do something foolish.”


    “Whether or not I do something foolish, it has nothing to do


    with you.”


    Preston lifted his gaze and looked towards the direction of the


    door.


    “Leave, don’te see me again.”


    Harper’s heart ached for a moment, but when she felt the coldness in Preston’s eyes, her courage


    wavered.


    She had already rejected him so heartlessly, causing him to have an ident and end up in the


    hospital. It would seem hypocritical to show concern for him again.


    After advising him to rest well, Harper picked up her pace,


    turned around, and left.


    As she walked out of the hospital room, she ran into Elsie. When Elsie saw hering out of the room,


    she instinctively nced at Preston inside.


    Elsie noticed that both Preston and Harper didn’t look good, and instantly knew that they hadn’t


    resolved their issues. She


    breathed a sigh of relief.


    “Come with me.” She reached out her hand and beckoned


    Harper with her finger.
