After and before behaves like a future and past tense.
Something that was happened before....past and history correct.
But something will happened after....present and contemporary can't be correct.
So, successor:predecessor is a right answer.
Example 1,2,3 :- 2's predecessor is 1 and its successor is 3.
I hope you got my point.

Historic tells of the 'past' (before).
Similarly present and contemporary. So why not B and C ?

Successor: a pesson or thing that succeeds another.
Predessor: a thing that has been followed or replaced by another.
That means Succesor comes AFTER predessor and Predessor comes BEFORE successor.
Hence I feel this is the closest relationship with After:Before.
