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.

Bodyguards were stationed all around, making sure no one could hurt her but also ensuring she couldn't escape.

Anna suspected Wisteria had started her plan. What was she trying to do by pretending to be her?

The constant anxiety made her health deteriorate even further.

Anna was slowly withering away like a fragile flower with an unnaturally short bloom.

Taylor could see it happening, and it made him restless. He tried countless methods, but nothing could stop her body from failing.

Taylor's brows knitted tightly. "Anna, do you really think I went through all this trouble just to keep you alive, only to take your life now? As for the Sanders, there's nothing I can do. Even if I don't want to hurt your family, the rest of the Carlyns won't let them go."

"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
