Chapter 1449 Girlhood’s memories
It seemed like Anthony could read Edith’s mind as he stood at the bottom of the slope, facing the dim streetlights, and
smiled at her.
“I have nothing to say!”
She had let it go, telling her the truth would only create rifts
between her and her parents, so why bother?
Let her remain oblivious and live her life happily.
With this thought, tears welled up in Anthony’s eyes, causing him to instinctively turn away.
“If you don’t say it tonight, you’ll never have the chance again.”
“If I tell you, will you forgive me?”
“No.”
A tinge of bitterness appeared on Anthony’s face.
“Then I won’t say it.”
He waved his hand casually.
Looking at that dwindling figure, Edith recalled the first time she saw him.
Back then, Anthony was sitting in the Nightshade box, lazily leaning on the couch, smoking alone.
This man hidden in the dim light was completely different from the bustling crowd around him, as if filled with loneliness.
Good girls always couldn’t resist this type of man, even though her friends warned her that he was a player, not to fall in love with him.
But she still wore a bright smile and said in her heart, “Sorry, but I fell for him at first sight. Your advice came too late!”
Later, Anthony got closer to Paul and she often saw him
entering and leaving her brother’s house…
Every time young Edith saw him, she felt her heart was filled with honey. She always hid behind the door, secretly watching
him.
After her courage grew, she would bring coffee, fruit, snacks,
and other things, and push open her brother’s door to get
closer to him.
Back then, Anthony, who was playing games, would
occasionally glance at her.
His gaze was neither cold nor indifferent, as if he didn’t have much interest in this young girl.
Edith would then chase after Rebecca and ask how she could grow up faster.
Rebecca would pat her little head and say, “You’re only sixteen, just starting high school. Why are you so eager to grow up?”
Edith smiled and didn’t say anything, she searched for information online and learned about weight loss and makeup.
She had been paying special attention to managing her own image since she turned sixteen.
Later, when she found out that he had received an
acceptance letter from a prestigious university abroad, she
studied even harder.
