Chapter 563: I Loved You Then, I Let You Go Now (1)_1

Edward Anderson pulled Bella Scott to sit on the edge of the bed.

He held her hand and gently caressed the old calluses in her palm, "Bella, we grew up together. Actually, when you were very young, I already liked you very much. I didn't know what kind of feeling it was at that time, but I knew that when I followed you, I felt you were particularly dazzling, like a burning little sun, so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off you. Later, when I grew up, I saw you suffering in the Scotts family, but I couldn't protect you. I thought that one day I would become very strong, able to protect you, and prevent you from being hurt. Two years ago, however, you became a laughingstock because of me. That's when I found out that the ones who hurt you the most were not the Scotts, but me..."

His fingers stopped at the hideous scar on her wrist, "A good girl like you has an irreparable scar on your hand, and it's also because of me."

At that time, his feelings were beyond words.
