    Chapter 1654


    As soon as these words were spoken, not only Preston, but


    even Kate couldn’t understand.


    She had alreadye to apologize in person, so Harper didn’t need to y hard to get anymore, right?


    1/5


    However, Harper wasn’t ying hard to get at all. She really


    didn’t want Preston anymore.


    She grabbed Kate’s hand, stuffed the ck card into it, and quickly walked away.


    Seeing this, Preston went crazy and chased after her, grabbing her and pulling her into his arms.


    “If you think my mom’s apology isn’t sincere enough, just tell me. I’ll make her apologize again. Don’t


    say you won’t mate


    me.”


    Preston’s embrace was like a vine, wrapping around her,


    making it difficult for Harper to break free and also causing her pain.


    He had embraced Elsie, Ka, and countless other women.


    before, and she used to not care, but now she felt dirty.

    She didn’t even want to talk to him, just struggling to pushi him away, but Preston held onto her tightly,


    as if he would disappear if he let go.

    “Harper, it was my mom’s fault. She realized her mistake and


    came to apologize, which means she won’t stop us in the future. Please calm down and don’t reject me


    because of this.”


    Harper, unable to break free, smelled the fragrance on


    Preston’s body, reminding her of the pungent smell of alcohol. that night. It made her feel nauseous


    and pushed him away frantically.


    “Let go of me!”


    But Preston wouldn’t let go, holding onto her tightly.


    “I finally see you, how could I let go of you!”


    His tight embrace was like a shackle, binding Harper, keeping


    her locked in.


    She couldn’t control her emotions and suddenly exploded –


    “Don’t touch me, don’t touch me, I said don’t touch me!”


    The deafening roar and hysterical shoving frightened both


    Preston and Harper herself.


    Chapter 1654


    She slowly lifted her head and looked at Preston…


    In his eyes, she saw her reflection….


    Not the gentle and elegant appearance from before, but a distorted and resentful expression.


    3/5


    She was afraid of bing a shrew, but because of that 50% love, she had be the person she


    feared.


    In the end, she had be such a shrew…


    Her strong resistance made Preston slowly release his grip.


    “Don’t be afraid, I won’t touch you…”


    Preston’s tone was gentle, but there was a hint of fear in his eyes when he looked at her.


    Seeing this, Harper felt uneasy. When Damian cheated on her,


    she had also shown this kind of look.


    She could imagine how ugly she looked when she got angry, to the point where the guilty party would


    be afraid to see her.


    She hated this version of herself, extremely hated it, but she was also stubborn and unwilling to show


    her vulnerable side


    to others…

    She lowered her head and said “sorry” before trying to run


    away, but Preston stopped her again.


    This time, he didn’t dare to touch her, but maintained an appropriate distance.


    “Harper, what’s wrong with you?”


    That night, she responded so tenderly to his touch. It had only been a while, so why was she now so


    resistant?


    Harper kept her head down and remained silent. Her calm andposed appearance made Preston


    even more worried than when she was angry…


    “Is it because of my mom that you…“”


    “It has nothing to do with your mother.”


    “Then why?”


    Were there other factors besides his mother’s interference?


    As Harper calmed down, she slowly lifted her chin and looked


    at the man blocking her path, but keeping his distance.


    “You know it yourself. Why do I have to point it out and


    embarrass us both?”


    Chapter 1654


    These cryptic words left Preston scratching his head in


    confusion.


    “What do I know?”


    5/5


    What was he supposed to know?


    Seeing him feign ignorance, Harper felt more and more disappointed in Preston.


    That night, when Elsie asked him if he wasfortable, he responded, but now he acted as if he knew


    nothing.

    “It’s impossible between us. Don’te looking for me


    anymore.”


    She left these words behind and turned to leave, but Preston, who was still in a daze, chased after her


    again.


    “Exin yourself clearly. Even if you won’t mate me, at least


    tell me the reason.”


    Was it because of his mother or something else? He had to


    know the reason.
