The bodyguard couldn’t argue with him, so he took out a lighter, opened it, and held the sparks with his hand, pa*sing it to Preston’s lips.
“Young master, when you take the first puff, don’t inhale into your lungs, it can make you choke…”
“Cough, cough, cough…”
The bodyguard hadn’t even taught him how to smoke yet, but he had already inhaled it. He suddenly sucked it into his lungs and kept coughing
“Are you okay, young master?”
The bodyguard was so frightened that he raised his big, calloused hand and patted him on the back
He was afraid of patting him too hard and hurting him, so he just scratched his back, which had no effect.
After catching his breath, Preston picked up the cigarette and put it back in his mouth.
Why could Harper smoke, but he couldn’t?
Before he could even take a puff, a fair hand reached out and sn atched the cigarette from his mouth.
Preston looked up and saw Anthony, who was wearing a white suit and looked elegant and calm, and his expression turned uglier.
“Give it back to me!”
Anthony didn’t bother with him, and threw the cigarette into a nearby trash can in a parabolic path.
“If you do this again, don’t blame me for calling your big sister to come get you.”
Griffon, the Alpha of the Knight pack, wasn’t there, then he would have to ask his big sister to come and take care of Preston’s misbehavior.
Thinking of Rebecca’s stern and impartial face, Preston didn’t ask for another cigarette, but the anger on his face didn’t subside.
Anthony saw that Preston seemed to be furious, so he reached out to gently pat his shoulder….
“Listen to me, as someone who’s been there. If you love someone, cherish her and don’t fight with her. Let her have her way, don’t argue with her.”
“If you fight with her, if you’re stubborn with her, you’ll end up like me, on your knees crying, and she won’t even look at you.”
Anthony’s eyes shone like a galaxy, filled with an indissoluble melancholy.
It seemed like he was hating his past self, and at the same time, mourning for his past sorrows.
In the end, he just put away that heart-wrenching memory and patted Preston’s shoulder again
“Listen to my advice, don’t wait until you lose her before you wake up and regret it. It’ll be too late then.”
“I’m not like you.”
Anthony had been advising Preston for a while, but the response he got was just “I’m not like him”.
The helpless man raised his eyebrows slightly, “Alright, you’re the best, no one is like you.”
Anthony felt that Preston had never truly loved someone to the point of being heartbroken, so he wouldn’t be able to understand any grand advice He had to experience it himself. In matters of the love affairs, Anthony was the worst and has no right to preach to Preston.
Since Anthony couldn’t convince Preston, he didn’t say much except for a warning:
“Remember, no smoking. It’s best not to touch that stuff, or else I’ll tell Rebecca and Griffon.”
The only people who can control Preston in the Knight pack are Rebecca and Griffon, so threatening him with them is the best option.
After issuing the warning, Anthony cast a sidelong glance at the bodyguard.
“Be careful. If he dies from smoking, you won’t be able to afford the consequences.”
After being reminded, the bodyguard broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Anthony appeared in time to stop him.
If those in power found out that Preston had caused trouble while on a business trip in the capital, they would have to pay with their lives.
With deep gratitude, the bodyguard bowed to Anthony. “Rest a*sured, we will keep an eye on the young master.”
Anthony then turned around and went upstairs to see the other brothers. All he needed to know was that Preston hadn’t killed anyone.
Harper stood outside the bathroom door, waiting until Jayden had finished talking to the hospital before summoning the courage to
the door.
open
When Jayden turned around, he saw a serious expression on Harper’s face as he stood outside the door.
Jayden frowned and took off his noise-cancelling headphones, walking over to Harper.
“What’s wrong?”
As Jayden approached, he saw that Harper’s face was flushed and her lips were swollen, as if she had just experienced an intense kiss,
Harper didn’t know how to face Jayden, she lowered her head to try to cover up her unnatural complexion, but Jayden grabbed her shoulder.
“Did someone bully you? Tell me and I’ll go to fix him!”
Jayden’s gentle tone carried a hint of anger. It seemed that he didn’t care what Harper had done, but only cared if she had been bullied.
This made Harper feel even more guilty. Jayden was really good, how could she deserve someone like him? It’s better not to waste his
time.
“Senior, let’s break up.”
Harper took a deep breath, gathered up her courage, and spoke these words.
They had not been dating for long, just over half a month. They should break up as soon as possible if they had to
Harper didn’t want to waste Jayden’s time from finding a better mating partner.
But Jayden couldn’t accept the sudden breakup.
He stared at Harper’s swollen lips for a long time, and then asked.
“Is there something bothering you? Are you afraid of involving me, so you decided to break up with me?”
