Chapter 1324
Locked in the car, Harper glared at him, furious and angry.
“What do you want?”
Preston took a bottle of water from the car, unscrewed the
cap, and dampened a tissue. He then approached Harper and pressed it against her, gripping her face
with one hand.
With his other hand holding the tissue, he forcefully wiped
Harper’s red lips…
“Clean it properly, so there won’t be any other man’s scent…”
“You’re crazy!”
Harper turned her head away, refusing to let Preston wipe her, but he held her chin, rendering her
immobile.
Preston, intoxicated, had bloodshot eyes, yet his grip was strong as he continuously wiped her lips.
It seemed as if by doing so, he could erase the mark left by Jayden and wipe away the memory that

insane…
“Clean yourself up, and we can be good again, okay?”
Initially, Harper struggled, but upon hearing those words, her heart suddenly ached.
She lifted her hand and touched Preston’s face, as well as his
teary eyes.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for you to see that…”
She thought he had left, but little did she know he was still
there.
If she had known he was there, Harper would have rejected Jayden.
As her hand touched her own cheek, Preston lifted his head
slightly.
It seemed as if he didn’t want her to see his vulnerable
emotions, and there was no place to hide in this cramped
space.
“How many times did you kiss when I couldn’t see?”
If they had kissed too many times, would he still be able to
clean her?
Harper stared into his eyes, sincerely shaking her head.
“Not many.”
Preston’s tense body suddenly relaxed, but then he hugged
Harper and rested his chin on her shoulder, looking somewhat aggrieved.
“Harper, you’re not lying to me this time, right?”
“No…”
He held her tightly, his cold cheek buried against her face.
“Then, can we be good again?”
Harper, now calm, slightly turned her head and looked at Preston, who resembled a pup begging for
candy.

to mate him.”
This was the first time she called him by his name.
It sounded nice and it pierced his heart.
“Even if I tell you that I love you, and want to mate you, is it too
late?”
When he expressed his feelings before, he only said he liked
her, never that he loved her.
For the first time, Harper felt that he truly loved her, but unfortunately, it was too late.
“It’s too late.”
She gently pushed Preston away.
“I’ve been waiting for you to grow up. Many times, when I met
you, I hoped you wouldn’t be so thoughtless, because I also have feelings.”
His words of getting tired of her, of never mating her in this lifetime, and questioning her worth, had all

pain.
“I’ll change. I won’t say hurtful things to you anymore, okay?”
