Chapter 1462
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, Kate 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.”

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…
