O
Genevieve’s voice was cold, but every word she uttered made him feel as if his heart was stabbed with knives.
Anthony was free, but Genevieve was not.
She might be alone forever, immersed in this indescribable sorrow.
For the child he had given up so easily, Genevieve had put the blame for the loss of this life on him and Rosalie
He could say indifferently that it was all over.
However, it was different for her.
That child was the real angel that had appeared in her life.
Now, he saved her life.
They were even.
That was what Genevieve told him.
Anthony was shocked and stood still when he heard that. His figure also instantly stiffened.
His face gradually turned pale and unsightly.
There was a long silence in the ward.
Then, Anthony’s rough and hoarse voice rang out.
“So, that’s what you think,” he said.
She still hated him, even if he saved her life.
That child was an insurmountable gulf between them.
For the first time, Anthony felt powerless. Even if he exhausted every means he had, they couldn’t make up for what he had
missed.
Panic and confusion flooded his mind. His fists clenched tightly, but he could never hold on to what he wanted.
Genevieve had a clear judgment between gratitude and grudges. She merely expressed her feelings calmly and rationally.
This offerin
She refused his offering to start over, and she refused to erase the past.
Genevieve looked out of the window and suddenly felt a warm trickle of tears falling out from the corner of her eyes. Before she could wipe it off, Anthony strode over and held her in his arms.
His chin was pressed against the top of her head. She used to be so attached to his embrace, so this felt as if she had

gone back to the past.
However, in the past, Anthony had never held her so tightly. His embrace was always perfunctory.

Genevieve’s nose felt sore, and the surging sadness instantly overwhelmed her. Her heart seemed to be pulled and torn by a thin thread, which was so painful that it was hard to breathe.
She tried to push Anthony away, but he held her wrist tightly.
Anthony wiped her tears and said in a deep and rough voice, “I know you won’t forgive me anytime soon, and I also know that you can’t let go of the things I did. I only hope that you can take care of yourself. I will always be waiting for you to come back to me.”
Anthony then lowered his eyes, hiding the emotions in them before adding, “If you need anything, just come to me. Don’t look for a substitute.”
Those words sounded a little cold
Genevieve narrowed her eyes, and the gloom in her heart suddenly dissipated. She felt a little angry and ridiculous. Just as she was about to say something, Anthony’s phone rang.
He didn’t avoid Genevieve’s sight and took out his phone. The name displayed on the screen was: [Rosalie.].
Genevieve’s mood instantly turned sullen. She took the opportunity to step back calmly, distancing herself, and recovered her usual cold and indifferent attitude.
‘He had the gall to say he wanted to reconcile with me to my face when he’s already had his first crush on him?‘ she thought.
Anthony’s eyebrows furrowed tightly as he glanced at Genevieve. He was hesitating for a bit when Genevieve sarcastically said, “I almost thought you were serious when you said that just now. You should have proposed to your sweetheart, and she will cooperate with your acting with tears in her eyes.”
‘It had been three years, and he still thinks saying a few sweet words can fool me?‘ Genevieve thought.
Genevieve was no longer a hopeless romantic. She thought it was pointless to compete with other women for men.
Only when there was no love in her heart could she face the man’s plea for reconciliation with a calm mind.
Anthony glanced at her with a complicated look in his eyes, and in a heavy tone, said, “She’s not my sweetheart. Everything I said just now was serious.”
As if to prove his words, he answered Rosalie’s call in front of Genevieve.
Before he could speak, Rosalie said in a gentle and sweet voice, “Anthony, when will you come back for dinner? Mal misses his daddy. Let’s have a reunion dinner together when Mal returns. By the way, last time you promised to marry me in front of Mal-‘
Before Rosalie could finish, Genevieve sneered. She raised her gaze and looked at Anthony with a sarcastic expression on her face.

Anthony’s face turned pale, and he quickly hung up the phone with a frown.

He then tried to explain, “Mal is my elder brother’s son. He just came back from abroad and can’t speak. He doesn’t know that my older brother has passed away. I was just trying to coax him-”
Genevieve cut him off and said, “Anthony, you don’t have to explain anything to me. I’m not interested in knowing about your affairs. Please don’t pretend to be affectionate and act as if you can’t forget me from now on. You look like a total hypocrite!”
After saying that in a cold manner, Genevieve turned to look at the door.
“I’m going to have a rest. Get out, Genevieve said.
She didn’t even want to look at him anymore..
Anthony’s eyebrows furrowed tightly, his face tense, and his lips pursed. He wanted to say something but felt that Genevieve would not believe his words, as she was angry at the moment.
“You have a good rest. Call me if you need anything.” Anthony said.
After saying that, he paused for a bit before turning around and leaving.
Genevieve felt she might be feeling even worse if she did call him.
Genevieve sneered before calming down. The look in her eyes darkened slightly, and she picked up her phone.
“Nelly, it’s me,” Genevieve greeted.
After receiving the call, Selene rushed to the hospital excitedly.
“Something suddenly came up that day, so I didn’t go to the banquet. Someone actually used my name to plot against you. I’m so angry!” Selene said.
Genevieve was changing her clothes while maintaining a calm expression.
“It’s okay. It was a false alarm anyway. What’s important is that you’re fine, Genevieve replied.
“Have you really made up your mind?” asked Selene.
Selene watched as Genevieve changed her clothes with a cold and firm look in her eyes. She then added, “Why don’t we let someone else do it?”
“No. I want to avenge myself personally,” Genevieve answered.
Selene nodded and said, “Okay. Call me if you need anything.
Time passed, and it was the evening.
Rosalie received a call from a director, who said that one of the cast members was temporarily ill and couldn’t come. The director asked if she would like to participate.

Rosalie couldn’t even get a job now. Her company no longer supported her, and her public image was damaged. Not to mention the fact that she was not willing to do other jobs.
Therefore, she was extremely excited when she was offered this opportunity and readily agreed.
However, she felt a little uneasy after hanging up the phone, so she called Aiden to find out about this director.
When he heard the director’s name, Alden immediately said, “This director ran away from Eagle Entertainment, and his departure from the company was rather unpleasant.”
Rosalie felt relieved upon hearing that.
She packed her things and went to the filming studio in the suburbs that the director had mentioned.
The studio was devoid of film crew. Rosalie looked at the empty and abandoned filming studio and called the director angrily, but her call couldn’t get through.
She was about to turn around and leave when the front door was suddenly locked from the outside.
Rosalie’s expression changed, and she rushed over before frantically tapping on the door.
“Who’s there? Do you know who I am? Anthony Hoffman is my fiancé, and I am the future lady of the Hoffman family. You dare to treat me like this?” Rosalie shouted..
There was no sound outside the door.
Rosalie thought of an idea, and she immediately took out her phone.
“Anthony, help me…” Rosalie said.
Moments after that, someone dropped a lighter from the only vent pipe in the studio…
