Chapter 1467
After Jayden’s words, it did seem like Preston had done it on
purpose.
But Harper had been with Preston for three years, and she knew he wasn’t that kind of person.
“Don’t speculate about Preston’s character. He’s not you, and he wouldn’t do these things behind my
back,” Harper defended Preston firmly for the first time in front of Jayden.

he was.
“Ultimately, you only care so much about what I say because you can’t let go of Preston,” he habitually
shifted the blame. Harper couldn’t see it before, but now she found it laughable.
“Believe whatever you want, but I trust what I hear and see,” she said in a tone devoid of emotion,
seemingly prepared for a breakup, so she had nothing to lose.
Without waiting for Jayden’s response, Harper continued to ask, “Secondly, do you condone your
mother interrogating me because I’m a powerless orphan you think can be easily bullied?”
Jayden didn’t think that way, but in his heart, even if his beloved the girl couldn’t compare to his mother.
“You heard it too, I reprimanded her,” he said.
“Yeah,” Harper laughed again.
“You always explain things afterward, just like when your friend bad-mouthed me last time, you said
you were distracted and didn’t hear it,” she interrupted Jayden’s attempt to explain.
Jayden frowned, wanting to explain, but Harper interrupted him again, “The first time I met your

perception of me is the same as your mother’s.”
Just like Natalic, he thought she had a dirty personal life, no background, no education, unmated, and
not worthy of him.
“I told you about these issues before we got together, and you said you didn’t mind. Why be hypocritical
now?” she looked disappointed, and Jayden’s eyebrows furrowed with a twinge of pain.
“I really don’t mind. It’s just because she’s my mother, so I…” Jayden lowered his head, realizing he
had made a mistake.
“This is my fault, I’m sorry,” he finally apologized, but Harper wouldn’t forgive him like she used to.
“Actually, I don’t care what you think. I asked you this question just to tell you…” Harper took a deep
breath, her eyest unnaturally red, on the verge of tears.
