After casually muttering those words, even Preston himself hesitated for a moment. At the same time,
Harper was left
stunned in place. He was facing the couch, so it was impossible for him to see her.
Harper lowered her head, remembering that when they were together, the first thing Preston said after
waking up from a hangover was to ask her for hangover medicine. It was her habit to feed him
hangover medicine to relieve his stomach, and it was his habit to rely on her care. That was why he
muttered such words.
After a moment of daze, Preston chuckled self-deprecatingly. Harper didn’t pay much attention to him
anymore, so how could she take care of him? It was just wishful thinking.
He threw the pillow in his hand and turned around, only to see Harper holding a glass of water

Startled after recognizing Harper’s figure, Preston exclaimed,
“What are you doing here?”
“Griffon asked me to come pick you up,” Harper replied.
After saying that, Harper bent down and brought the glass of water to Preston’s lips. “There’s no
hangover medicine here. Drink
some water to ease it for now.”

handed him. Feeling a mixture of surprise and joy, he opened his lips and slowly drank the glass of
water.
And Preston found it strange that mineral water never had a taste, but at this moment, he could taste a
hint of sweetness. Could it be that the water in the capital city was better than in Arcadia?

she was exerting strength to support his tall body. “Thank you…”
Harper shook her head. “Where did you park your car?”
With a pounding headache, Preston turned to look at his coat, wanting to bend down and retrieve the
keys from inside. However, due to his instability, he suddenly fell backward onto the couch, with Harper,

her waist.
“Harper…”
He called her name, but didn’t say anything. The desire that flickered in his eyes was undeniably
obvious.
He had wanted her for two years, but there hadn’t been a successful attempt. He could only suppress
this desire deep in his heart.
Perhaps it was the accumulation of pent-up emotions, or perhaps it was due to drinking too much that
Preston couldn’t control himself. He held the back of Harper’s head, slightly tilted her chin, and kissed
her.
The moment his lips met hers, Preston’s heart raced uncontrollably. He even tightened his grip on her
waist instinctively.
