immediately. She had only mentioned Anthony Sherman’s first name during the phone call earlier, not his last
name.
However, Hadwin Stephenson knew his full name.
Which also meant… “You looked into him?”
“So what if I did? What about you? How much do you love.

Hadwin Stephenson was silent for a moment, then suddenly.
said, “Have you ever hated me?”
She was stunned for a moment. She stared at him in
bewilderment, wondering why he suddenly asked such a
question.
“Have you ever hated me? Have you hated that I abandoned you when you were at your lowest and chose to break
up with you and be with another woman?” Step by step, he moved
toward her.

Shock flashed through his eyes as though he had not
expected her to say so.
“You don’t… hate me?” he murmured. The four words almost
seemed to have been squeezed out of his throat with a
tremble.
She said, “I don’t hate you, and I don’t want to hate you. Hate
is a very hurtful feeling. It was nice being in love with you. I
don’t want to add hatred to it. Between love and career, you
chose the latter. That’s all you did.”
