Chapter 419 The Humbling Of Elsie

• After Harper left, Griffon’ cold gaze swept over the nearby staff. “Get her out of here,” he repeated. The staff immediately understood and gestured for Elsie to leave. “Miss, you are not welcome here. Please leave immediately.” Elsie couldn’t believe that the Alpha of the Knight pack really wanted to kick her out! She was so angry that she almost lost her temper, but she restrained herself in front of Preston. No matter what, she couldn’t ruin her good image in Preston’s heart. Only by maintaining this good image of her first love, she had a chance to mate Preston. Thinking of this, Elsie lowered her head and pretended to be humble, saying to Preston, “Preston, I’ll leave first.” When Harper left, Preston nodded absentmindedly. “Yeah, you go ahead.” Elsie thought that by saying this, he would hold her hand and leave with her, but he actually let her go first. Elsie looked incredulously at Preston, who was still looking in the direction of the old woman leaving, and her pretty face twisted in anger. She was furious, but she clenched her fists and left without showing any emotion. Just wait and see, she would find a way to make that old woman back down. After Elsie left, the mating ceremony reception was still going on. The Knight pack members, Griffon’ friends, and others were still in the dining area, drinking wine and chatting. As the bride and groom, they had to wait a little longer before the guests left. Griffon was a little impatient, but he forced himself to endure it. Seeing many people raising their gla*ses to Griffon, Taya pulled Stella to find Harper. Harper was sitting on the lawn, eating snacks. Her face didn’t show much emotion, but Taya, who knew her well, knew that she was not feeling well. She lifted her mating ceremony dress and sat down next to Harper, saying, “Don’t take what Preston said to heart. He’s just being foolish.” Stella also sat down and patted Harper’s shoulder to comfort her. “Yes, Preston is playful and has bad taste. Don’t lower yourself to his level.” Harper felt warm inside when she saw her two friends worrying about her. “I’m fine. I’m just thinking, why are all the men I meet like this? Can’t I find a good one?” Stella smiled and said, “When I go back to my country, I’ll immediately hold a ball. There will be ten good men for you to choose from!” This made Harper feel much better, and her eyes lit up. “Can I have many men at the same time?” Stella teased her, “Why? Do you want a lot of them?” Harper nodded without embarra*sment. “Yes, I aspire to have many men.” Taya, who was confused, asked, “What ball?” Stella briefly explained, and Taya said regretfully, “Too bad, I’m going on my honeymoon, otherwise I could join you guys.”” This scared Stella, who waved her hands and said, “Even if you’re not on your honeymoon, I wouldn’t dare invite you to the ball. Don’t say such things in front of me again, it’s scary!” Taya wanted to say that Stella was exaggerating, but Neil and George, who arrived late, rushed over to her. “Sorry, we were robbed on the way here and delayed…” George, who was out of breath, pointed at Neil and complained, “It’s all his fault. He insisted on taking the ferry and we were kidnapped by a group of strange people…” Neil felt upset upon hearing this and even though he was out of breath from exhaustion, he retorted to George, “It’s true that I suggested taking the ferry, but you didn’t refuse and if it weren’t for you flirting on the ferry, would we have fallen into the trap?” George was so angry that his lips were trembling, “You, you… didn’t you also go to strike up a conversation?” Neil firmly corrected, “Let me say it again, I didn’t approach her, she approached me!” George gritted his teeth and said, “What’s the difference? It’s just because you didn’t take the plane and insisted on taking the ferry, which caused trouble!” As the two were about to argue, Taya stepped forward and pulled George back, saying, “If you follow Neil out, be prepared to be robbed.” George saw that she seemed experienced like she had found someone to confide in. She looked sad and said: Being robbed is bad enough, but he only took ten thousand dollars with him when he left. The robber only asked for nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars, but he insisted on getting one dollar back from the robber, which resulted in me getting beaten up as well. “Harper, I finally unders stingy.” Harper looked at Neil and said, “Did you finally get it?” Stella nodded repeatedly, “Yes.” Neil didn’t want to argue with them, so he asked Taya, “Taya, has the mating ceremony started yet?”
