Chapter 1656
When Kate saw the bloodstains on Preston’s socks at the hotel,
she was startled and immediately called for a doctor. Preston, who showed no reaction no matter how the doctor treated him, curled up on the couch, closed his eyes, and sulked alone. Seeing her son in such a state, Kate naturally felt heartbroken. She sat down beside him and tried to comfort him in a gentle.
voice.
“Preston, if she doesn’t want to mate you, just let it go. Don’t ruin your health over a woman like her.”
Preston didn’t want to listen. He turned away, facing the
couch.
Looking at his tall figure from behind, Kate sighed heavily.
“If she loved you, she wouldn’t have hurt you so recklessly.”
Preston got a little angry and clenched his fists.
“What do you know?”
Harper did love him, just not as much. Maybe only 30% of her love, which was why she didn’t hesitate to hurt him.
“I may not understand, but if it were me, I would never go
back to Harper.”

tightly.
“Mom, I don’t want to go back to her either, but I love her so
much and can’t let go.”
Since he became aware of his love for Harper, he couldn’t
control his emotions anymore.
He missed the old Harper, who would forgive him no matter
what he did wrong or said if he begged her.
He also missed when she used to curl up in his arms like a little
kitten, asking him if he had feelings for her.
He missed that Harper and wanted her back.
But he had been begging her for many years, and she still
didn’t want to come back…
Preston’s nose tingled, and he instinctively covered his eyes.
“Many years ago, when she asked for a breakup, I shouldn’t have agreed.”
If he hadn’t agreed, that Harper from back then would never
have left.

Hearing the choked voice, Kate’s heart sank subconsciously. Did he love Harper this much?
Preston didn’t give an answer, but his actions showed her that he loved Harper to the extreme.
Seeing Preston lying in the hotel, refusing to go back to the country and refusing to eat, Kate also felt sad.
“It’s pointless for you to act like this. You can’t win Ms. Duke back, so why torture yourself?”
He was causing a scene here, but she couldn’t see it. Why
torment himself?
Preston ignored her, looking outside when his eyes were open. and sleeping when they were closed, like a walking corpse.
Looking at Preston, who couldn’t eat or drink, Kate’s heart
grew even more resentful towards Harper.
But deep down, her subconscious told her that it was because of her interference that Preston and Harper ended up like this.
If it weren’t for her, Preston might have already mated smoothly, so why would he lie in a foreign country waiting to die?
Feeling increasingly guilty, Kate asked the bodyguard to watch over Preston and went to the hospital to find Harper
with her bag.
Coincidentally, Harper had just come out of the ward when she met Kate. She originally wanted to avoid her, but Kate directly stopped her.
“Ms. Duke, would you have time to have a cup of coffee?”
4/5
Compared to their first meeting, Kate was much more polite
this time, but Harper still refused.
“I need to buy a wheelchair. I don’t have time.“”
Kate took a step forward and blocked her way.
“It’s just a few words. You don’t have to resist so much.”
Harper stopped and raised her cold gaze, looking at the wealthy woman in front of her.
“I rejected your son. You should take this opportunity to cut off his feelings instead of coming to chat with me.“”
Compared to their first meeting when she was humble, Harper was more sharp–tongued this time.
She really didn’t want to mate Preston, so she no longer pretended to be polite. Was she still playing hard to get?
5/5
Kate had reservations about this, but her heart leaned more
towards the former.
“My initial intention was for you to reject my son, not to ruin his life.”
