Kate lowered her eyelashes slowly upon hearing those words.
What was she really worried about?
In the past, she worried that Anthony, a person like him, was not worthy of Edith. She went to great lengths to break them up, only to discover that Anthony had his reasons.
Now, she worries that a woman like Harper is not worthy of Preston and wants to break them up too, but…
If one day, she suddenly realizes, like she did with Anthony, that Harper is not the person she thought she was, will she regret her actions today, just like she regretted breaking up Anthony?
As this thought arose, Kate broke out in a cold sweat, She hadn’t even reached that point yet, so why was she having such thoughts? Could this be the lingering aftermath of past
mistakes?
Thinking about how Edith looked devastated after losing Anthony, and how she cut off all ties with her after learning the truth, Kate felt a chill run down her spine. Did she not lose. a daughter already? Did she want to lose a son as well?

Seeing Kate lost in thought, Griffon seized the opportunity
to speak: “What if you let Preston mate Ms. Duke once? If Preston really is as you say, that he wants to mate Ms. Duke because he didn’t get you, then they will eventually unmated. By then, you can find a suitable daughter–in–law for Preston, and he won’t resent you. He will appreciate you as a mother who always looks out for him. But if you dampen his
enthusiasm now, not only will you ruin his chance at mating,
but you will also damage your relationship with him. Why
bother with such a thankless task?”
After listening, Kate had an epiphany. Yes, Preston was
different from Edith. He was the CEO of the Knight North
America division. Even if it was a second mating, there were plenty of women who would be interested in him. Why should she worry?
But the current situation, as Preston had said, was not about
whether she agreed or not. It was about her apologizing to Harper. The thought of Harper potentially becoming her daughter–in–law made Kate even more unwilling to apologize.
Kate couldn’t afford to lose face, so she chose to remain
silent, She thought that as long as she didn’t respond, Griffon wouldn’t be able to see her thoughts. But she didn’t expect Griffon, after observing her for a while, to suddenly bring the conversation back to its original purpose.

“In the café, you said Ms. Duke has no parents and looked down on her as an orphan. Did you forget that my wife also has no parents and is an orphan?”
Griffon knew where Kate had met Harper, what they talked about, and it made Kate extremely uneasy. “I was talking about Ms. Duke, not Taya. Don’t jump to conclusions.”

An impatient Griffon coldly said, “Kate, Ms. Duke is my wife’s
sister. Don’t make me repeat it a third time.”
He meant that Ms. Duke was his wife’s sister, and even if they
had no blood relation, they were still connected. He couldn’t help but identify with her.
Understanding what Griffon meant, Kate knew he wanted her
to come up with a solution herself. She suggested, “How about
this, I apologize to Taya.”
Griffon sneered, “Those words were said to Ms. Duke, so
naturally you should apologize to her first and obtain her forgiveness before seeing my wife.”
In other words, if she didn’t earn Ms. Duke’s forgiveness, she had no right to see his she–wolf. He was really arrogant.
With Griffon being so insistent, Kate suddenly realized that if it weren’t for him speaking up for Taya’s sister, he probably wouldn’t even bother looking at her, let alone argue with her.

tactics in a conversation, who could dare to do anything, who
