Chapter 1449
It seemed like Anthony could read Edith’s mind as he stood at the bottom of the slope, facing the dim

He waved his hand casually.
Looking at that dwindling figure, Edith recalled the first time

self…
With a heart full of enthusiasm and love, she finally managed to get into the same university as him,
and finally, with her own efforts, be with him.
