Chapter 1456
Anthony didn’t answer him, he just raised his hand and waved casually.
It seemed as if he was saying that life is long and everything is predetermined. He’s not going to
struggle anymore, whatever happens.
Preston lowered his despondent eyelashes, staring at his own shadow on the ground, lost in thought.
Anthony and Edith were once in love, but he and Harper never loved each other. Their life paths won’t
follow Anthony and Edith’s because there’s no love story between them…
He took out his phone and opened the photos sent by his assistant. For a moment, he wanted to take

presented evidence to Harper, would she believe it?
Preston couldn’t afford to take the risk. He was afraid she wouldn’t believe him, and even more afraid
that she would forgive Jayden once she did. It’s ridiculous, he found himself feeling inferior in front of a
doctor who was nowhere near his level, and this inferiority was bestowed upon him by Harper…
Edith’s mother, Kate, and father, Edward, sat down on the living room couch after finishing their meal.
Kate called a beautician to take care of her skin, while Edward lowered his head and looked through

“Edith, what’s wrong with you?”
Kate and Edward quickly got up, approached her with concern, and held her hand, only to find that she

“Did something happen?”
used her own hand to wipe the rainwater off Edith’s face, but Edith turned her head aside.
Kate paused, seemingly understanding something, and when she looked into Edith’s teary eyes, a
sense of guilt surged within her.
Edith pushed away the hands of the couple without even entering the house. She stood under the
porch, red-eyed, looking at them.
“Why did you treat me like this, and why did you treat Anthony like this?”
