Chapter 520
Taya’s face turned as red as a tomato. She was about to
argue with Harper when a familiar figure appeared on the
video.
The man in the white suit reached over and took the cigarette from Harper’s hand, crushed it, and
threw it into the trash can
before looking down at her.
“How many times have I told you not to smoke? Why don’t you listen?” he argued.
When Taya saw Preston suddenly appear on the other end of the video, she froze in place.
Harper was even more surprised than she was. She didn’t
expect Preston to come to the nightclub, let alone speak to
her.
Since their last unpleasant encounter at the nightclub, they
hardly spoke to each other. It seemed like they had become
strangers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut after several months, Preston had condescended to visit
her nightclub again and had taken her cigarette just like
before.
This made Harper feel puzzled…
In fact, she had seen him at the hospital with a beautiful woman who seemed pregnant. Him being
extremely careful to support her was a clear sign that he had impregnated her and was accompanying
her to the gynecology to have an abortion. Although he changed girlfriends frequently, he was always
very focused on his current girlfriend. Why would he come to her if he already had someone new?
Harper was full of doubts, but Preston didn’t show any expression. He just glanced up at Taya on the
video. “Taya, I’m going to borrow your friend for a bit.” He hung up the phone as soon as he finished
speaking. Taya slowly came back to her senses as she looked at the end call screen… The situation
between Harper and Preston was complicated to say the least. Taya had asked Harper about her
thoughts on Preston, but she had only said that it was a chance encounter.
But after few years of being together, was it really just a chance encounter?
Taya thought about it, and decided that she should not
interfere.
She put down her phone and supported herself on the revolving staircase as she went downstairs. Her
body was almost falling apart these past few days. Her going down the stairs even made her legs ache.
Step by step, she moved to the living room downstairs and found two serva nts who were cleaning.
She began asking them about some shops nearby. When the ser vants noticed that she wanted to
leave the villa, they hurriedly asked her, “Ms. Palmer, what do you need? We can go buy it for you.”
Taya knew that Griffon must have instructed them not to let her leave the house alone. Thus, she didn’t
say much and just told the se rvants everything she needed for her drawing. After hearing her list, the
serva nts respectfully replied, “Ms. Palmer, Alpha Knight’ study has all these things, you can just go
there to get them.”
After hearing that everything she needed was in the study,
she thanked the serv ants and headed towards the study.
When she opened the door to the study, rows of bookshelves and cabinets appeared in her eyes. She
was shocked.
It seemed that Griffon was well-educated and knew many languages, which had a lot to do with the
cultural influence he had received since pup period.
After admiring for a moment, Taya walked to the bookshelf and searched for the drawing tools she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmneeded.
She couldn’t find them after a few rounds, so she turned and walked towards the row of cabinets,
opening them one by one and looking down to find what she needed.
She couldn’t find them until she opened the last cabinet.
The top shelf was filled with all kinds of drawings, pens, and
rulers that she needed.
She picked a few and was about to leave, but when she closed
the cabinet and noticed something familiar on the bottom
shelf.
Taya put down the tools in her hand and proceeded to open the bags. She noticed the things she had
lost before
immediately.
An album of her sister, Neil’s golden paintbrush, bank card,
and various sketches…
As these things appeared before her eyes, Taya was
completely stunned in place…
