Chapter 1368 Jayden’s sarcastic tone was so strong that even people standing outside the door couldn’t bear it. “Preston may be a bit of a player, but he’s always loyal to each girlfriend and never cheats on them or betrays them.” Anthony pushed past his friends and confidently walked in. Jayden glanced back at him, then looked away with disdain, looking at Preston. “But he is indeed a player, having so many girlfriends.” Upon hearing this, Preston couldn’t hold back his anger and tried to get up, but Anthony raised his hand to stop him. “He’s just fooling around, passing the time, he doesn’t casually sleep around with women.” After Anthony explained, he took a step forward, getting closer to Jayden. “But there’s one thing, Preston still can’t compare to you…” Jayden’s face darkened.
“What do you mean?” Anthony smirked, showing a faint smile. “Mr. Sherwood, you immigrated abroad after graduating from high school. Not so many know what you did abroad. But it wouldn’t be difficult to find out about your past with some money. So maybe you shouldn’t stand on a moral high ground and criticize others.” Jayden clenched his fist but didn’t respond to Anthony’s comment to ‘go ahead and investigate if you dare,. And he simply said, “I had a crush on Harper since high school, and even after going abroad, she was the only one on my mind. Mr. Clark, I’m not like Preston.” Anthony didn’t argue, but rather acknowledged it with a nod.
“You do have a point with that, but…” He stared at Jayden, giving him a once-over. “You said you had a crush on Miss Duke since high school?” Jayden didn’t know what he was getting at and simply nodded firmly. Anthony’s lips curved into a half-smile, and his crescent-shaped eyes filled with suspicion. “To have a crush on someone for so long shows that you really love her. So if you love her so much, why didn’t you immediately go find her after returning to the country, instead. of waiting until Stella’s blind date event to get close to her? It doesn’t make sense. You had already been back in the country for a long time, and if you loved Miss Duke so much, you should have bravely pursued her as soon as you returned.” Jayden wanted to explain, but Anthony raised his hand to interrupt him. “Don’t tell me you didn’t know, that Miss Duke had already unmated by then and was single. Don’t tell me you were afraid of bothering her. If you had said when you were in high school, I might have believed it, but as a doctor which is an honorable profession and having completed your studies, it’s hard to accept that you wouldn’t go after the person you love when you had the chance.” After a brief pause, Anthony raised two fingers. “So, these two points, for a normal person, sound a lot like excuses…”
