Filed to story: I Got Married Without You
However, Eric understood Kate and even though he didn’t approve of her forcing Anthony, he still tolerated it.
Now, with his wife misunderstood and blamed by their two children, Eric felt both powerless and heartbroken for his wife.
Kate buried her head in her husband’s shoulder, her regret and guilt shining through her teary eyes.
She sat in the living room, unable to sleep all night. The next day, she personally went to Anthony’s mansion.
After pressing the doorbell for a long time, he finally opened the door. When she saw the blurry-eyed man in front of her, Kate’s expression darkened. “Anthony, you…
Anthony, with his drunken eyes, leaned against the doorway. When he recognized who she was through his blurred vision, his gaze slightly changed. “What do you want?”
At this point, his tone remained calm, without a hint of hatred, despite the cruel words and actions she had said and done to him in the past.
The most severe incident was when he saw Edith cutting her wrists and was devastated, kneeling on the ground begging Kate not to continue this way, that Edith would kill herself. But Kate ignored him and slapped him, saying that she would only die if she was with him.
Kate remembered how she used to hit and scold Anthony. Her heart skipped a beat, as if she was afraid of his retaliation, so she stood outside the door and didn’t dare to go in. “I came here to apologize to you.”
With that, Kale handed the expensive and valuable gift to Anthony.
“I didn’t know that your grandmother passed away because of me. I’m really sorry.”
Anthony didn’t take the gift, he just looked at her indifferently.
Seeing that he didn’t take it, Kate awkwardly placed the gift in the foyer.
When she straightened up and looked at Anthony again, there was a hint of nervousness and guilt in her eyes.
She said, “Edith had a falling out with me last night. From the way she looked, she still cares about you. Maybe you two could…”
Anthony interrupted her. “She had a falling out with you to seek justice for my grandmother, not because she still loves me. We’re…” Anthony took a deep breath, his swollen eyes filled with heartbreak.
After a short pause, he uttered, “It’s all over between us.”
Edith could love someone passionately and could also walk away when she didn’t love this man anymore.
No, she had never walked away, she was forced to leave.
It was his cruel way of forcing her to leave that made it impossible for her to come back.
Kate didn’t expect this to be the ending between them. She wondered why couldn’t they start over.
Anthony didn’t give her an answer, he just bent down and picked up the gift she had left in the foyer, placing it back into her hands.
“You don’t need to apologize to me. You are her mother. You’re afraid she won’t be happy and might do something out of line. I understand. As for my grandmother, she just felt sorry for me, that’s why she committed suicide. If you wanna blame someone, blame me then. I’m so sorry for not having the ability back then.”
Kate looked at Anthony in astonishment, unable to believe that a young junior like him could say such broad-minded words.
She suddenly realized that her past self was narrow-minded after all…
Because of this narrow-mindedness, she harmed her own daughter and someone else’s grandmother…
“I’m sorry.”
Kate bowed to Anthony and apologized.
Looking at the figure of the elegant lady, Anthony remembered how she used to hit and scold him, and his eyes turned red. He lifted his chin, held back the tears, turned around and closed the door.
Kate stood up and looked at the door for a while. When she wanted to take a step to leave, a low, hoarse voice came from inside.
“She is kind-hearted, so it won’t take long for her to understand you. I hope you won’t resent her. Please take care of her in the future. Take care of her, love her more for me.”
Kate heard these words, her eyes filled with tears, and she couldn’t say anything. She quickly left this place that made her feel guilty and suffocated.
Anthony sat down slowly against the wall inside the gate. The photos in his phone’s album were automatically playing, showing the sweet moments he had with Edith.
He had seen them countless times and could vividly remember every detail of each photo. Unfortunately, the woman in those pictures no longer wanted him. Anthony stared at Edith’s face, smiled, and then started crying again…
Their story had come to an end, but he couldn’t move on.
After visiting Anthony, Paul suddenly drove to Eva’s mansion. He hesitated for a while, staring at the lit living room inside, then took out his phone and was about to get out of the car and push the door open.
However, he saw that the front gate was open and Jayden walked out, after they talked something, Jayden kissed her forehead, but Paul couldn’t see her expression clearly as Jayden’s figure blocked her. He only saw her covering her forehead.
Paul shifted his gaze from the two of them to his phone, finding the photos inside ironic.
Before leaving, Jayden smiled and reminded Eva, “Don’t forget our date tomorrow night.”
Eva nodded, waved goodbye to Jayden, and felt someone staring at her. She turned around, looking around but saw nothing…
The next day was Eva’s birthday, not her actual birthdate, but the day she entered the orphanage.
The director set the birthdays for these orphans as the day they entered the orphanage, symbolizing their rebirth.
Eva rarely celebrated her birthday, but Jayden booked the rooftop restaurant at the Hilton Hotel.
The rooftop restaurant at the Hilton Hotel was quite expensive, but Eva told Jayden not to spend so much money on her.
However, Jayden said it didn’t matter how much money he spent, he just wanted her to be happy on her birthday.
Eva thought that her birthday was the day she was abandoned by her parents, so how could she be happy? But she didn’t argue with Jayden.
Close to 7 o’clock in the evening, Eva finally left the nightclub, carried her bag, and drove to the rooftop of the Hilton Hotel…
Before the elevator doors opened, her phone vibrated.
Then, from an unknown number, countless photos were sent to her…
The photo showed a woman holding a child, who appeared to be about one year old. Eva looked at the photos, thinking they must have been sent to the wrong person because she didn’t recognize anyone.
But as she scrolled down, she saw Jayden’s figure in the photos, and she froze in place. What does this mean?
She furrowed her brow, wanting to ask the other person, when a text message popped up in the chat box: [This is Jayden’s ex-girlfriend, Bernice. They have a child together.] Jayden has an ex-girlfriend and a child?
Eva was shocked, and then the other person sent her an audio recording.
She stared at the recording for a few seconds before tremblingly clicking on it.
Jayden’s voice came through: “If she’s not clean in her personal life, how can she withstand your questioning? Why do you still doubt her?”
