Chapter 568

Tiffany was momentarily stunned.

She had known for a long time about June’s feelings for James.

After all, loving someone wasn’t something easily hidden–the way their eyes glow and shine when looking at each other always gave it away.

But June had buried her feelings too deeply. Only when she gazed at James‘ back, the love and despair in her eyes betrayed the truth.

The word love was the most hurtful of all.

Tiffany opened her mouth to speak but finally sighed instead, softly murmuring, “James, wake up!

What should really be cherished isn’t the person who doesn’t belong to you, but those who are by your side, she thought.

James let out a quiet laugh at her words, a flicker of meaning light surging in his eyes.

After a long pause, he looked at Tiffany and said, “If you knew the story of your mother and me back then, maybe… you wouldn’t say that.”

‘Ever since we first met in our youth, I have devoted myself to her with unwavering passion,‘ he thought.

Time had passed, and it had changed everything.

Selfish or not, despicable or not, he only wanted to hold onto that unfulfilled dream from years ago.

That was all.

Without another word, James gently pushed June aside, refusing her assistance. Turning away, he walked off, his tall figure gradually disappearing beyond the dark stone door.

Garry and the others arrived just in time to catch sight of his retreating silhouette. They were about to give chase when June stopped them.

“You’re just going to let him go?” Garry asked incredulously, exchanging puzzled glances with John.

Tiffany didn’t respond. She stood frozen, staring in the direction James had gone, his words echoing in her mind:“If you knew the story of your mother and me back then, maybe… you wouldn’t say that.”

‘What had happened back then?‘ she thought.

Narrowing her eyes, Tiffany resolved to ask the older generation about it when she returned.
