Chapter 564 A Heart For a Heart

After failing to escape, Anna lost what little freedom she had left. Taylor took her back to the Whites' estate in Jaford, keeping her far away from Snowville.

Without her ID or passport, she could never go back.

Nina thought she was really Alice and looked down on her for being an illegitimate child. Every few days, she would come to pick a fight.

Taylor was helpless. Ultimately, he bought a villa outside the estate and moved in with Anna.

"But...

Taylor pulled her into his arms. "Anna, I won't let anything happen to you."

Years passed, and Anna was already in her twenties before she knew it.

By then, she relied entirely on medication to stay alive. Every night, she wondered
