Chapter 414
As soon as Harper finished speaking, she saw the black
umbrella in her hand.
She glanced at the umbrella and then at the pale-faced Taya but didn’t ask anything.
After calling the nanny to fetch a towel, she wiped her wet hair
and cheeks.
After wiping, Harper said softly to her, “Taya, take a hot bath first. I’ll make ginger tea for you. You can drink it when you
come out.”
After saying that, she pushed Taya to the bathroom. Taya’s eyes suddenly turned sad, and her palm-sized face was pale.
Seeing her like this, Harper’s heart ached. “Did Griffon say something to you?”
Although she didn’t know what Taya had experienced after being taken away by Griffon, she could feel that Taya was in

But for Taya, who had walked through the gates of hell, was there any use for this belated trust?
Harper raised her hand and patted her gently on the back. “Now that you know he loves you, what will you do?”
Taya’s tears kept falling. “I forgave him and refused him. It’s impossible for us to be together.”
Before she knew this, she had already made up her mind and
made a promise.
The things that were done out of necessity in the past had
remained in the past, with time.
But many years ago, they had so much time, but they had never said a word of love to each other…
He thought she didn’t love him because she called out Silas’s name in her sleep.
She didn’t dare to say anything because of his sudden change
of attitude towards her.
They were a mistake from the very beginning. It was not so much a result of a transaction as it was of betrayal.
