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

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.

In his eyes, she saw her reflection….

she had also shown this kind of look.

Seeing him feign ignorance, Harper felt more and more disappointed in Preston.
That night, when Elsie asked him if he was comfortable, he responded, but now he acted as if he knew nothing.
“It’s impossible between us. Don’t come 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.
“Explain 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.
