“Did a few screws in your head loosen because of the beating?” Chester mocked in exasperation.
“A superficial and feminine guy like you wouldn’t understand.” Shaun glanced at him with disdain.
Chester was speechless.
He would not understand? He had dated more women than his fingers could count, but Shaun said that he would not understand?
Forget it. Chester could not be bothered to bicker with him. After handing over the medicine, he said, “Feed it to her three times a day. I’m leaving.”
He still had some self-awareness. He knew he had treated Cate badly before, and since Cate found Cindy disagreeable too, she did not like him either.
After he turned and left, he suddenly heard Shaun ask, “Cate, I heard from Logan that Charity was also framed by Wesley. What happened?”
The name ¡®Charity’ made his long legs stop involuntarily.
Cate could not be bothered to explain it to him at first. However, when she saw Chester stopped there, her heart moved slightly, and she could not help but say, “Would you believe me if I told you? You didn’t believe what I said three years ago.”
” I was foolish back then. From now on, I’ll believe everything you say, even if you say Chester swings the other way.” Shaun’s desire for survival was very strong.
Chester glared at Shaun with a dark, expressionless face. “I finally know what it means to have your brother choose a woman over you.”
Shaun said shamelessly, “I once suffered a big loss because I didn’t listen to my wife. I’ve learned my lesson now.”
Cate snapped at him. “Let me remind you that I’m not your wife anymore.”
“Cate, let’s get down to business.” Shaun immediately put on a straight face. “My brain is too slow- witted and can’t figure a lot of things out. I still need you to wake me up.”
Chester was speechless. Shaun was so shameless now that even Chester spurned him.
Cate was also choked by his words. After a moment, she said, “Three years ago, I told you that Rosabella was pretending to be Shelley…”
Chester interrupted her. “But we did a DNA test. The one who died was Shelley. Cate, I know you and Charity had a good relationship, but no one in the Neeson family is simple. You shouldn’t just think about clearing her name.”
Cate was immediately annoyed by his attitude. “Previously, you said that Sarah was simple and kind and that Charity always bullied her. Now that you have a clear understanding of Sarah’s true colors, do you think Charity could’ve bullied her? Didn’t you see I was bullied by Sarah so badly that I almost committed suicide? You now know that you misunderstood me back then, so has it never crossed your mind that Charity was the old me?”
Chester was stunned by her words.
Shaun quickly agreed like a sycophant. “Cate, you’re absolutely right. Your words have really woken me up. We were too prejudiced against Charity in the past.” “Yes, it was prejudice.”
Cate agreed with Shaun’. “Chester, although I don’ t know what happened between Charity and you, you were prejudiced against her and decided that she was a bad woman. You were even afraid that your thinking was wrong, so you found countless reasons to prove you were right, but the truth is that you were too stubborn. I really don’t understand. She’s dead, yet why can’t you give her a fair chance?”
“She’s dead?” Chester murmured. He recalled that when he went to the cemetery the other day, the grave where the Neeson family’s ashes were buried was dug up.
“Of course she is. She jumped into the sea, and the police searched high and low for her but found nothing. Do you think she’s still alive?” Cate felt a lump in her throat.
Shaun did not know how to comfort her, hence all he could do was pat her back over and over.
Cate returned to the main topic. “At that time, I really did test Shelley’s hair with Jeffery and confirmed that they were indeed related. However, when the test was being done in Melbourne, Rosabella’s friend from before found out.
“The one who died is the real Shelley because she got switched back the moment before the fire started. I had already guessed back then that Rosabella couldn’t do so many things alone. Rosabella was just a pawn to intensify the conflict between Shaun and me.
“The day before yesterday, when I was checking through Wesley’s laptop, I found he had a photo of Shelley when she was in college. He saved it before Shelley came to your side as a caregiver.”
Cate looked at Shaun. “I suspect that Wesley was secretly working for the Campos family at that time. After you threw Rosabella into the ravine, she was brought back by the Campos family and became a pawn of revenge. Wesley found the real Shelley’s whereabouts and had her photo, so he made Rosabella transform her face into Shelley’s through cosmetic surgery and approach you. The real Shelley was already in their hands. When the truth was almost revealed, they pulled a trick and burned the real Shelley to death instead.”
Shaun and Chester were horrified.
What Cate said was most probably true. Otherwise, how would Wesley, who had just come to Canberra, have an early photo of Shelley?
Chester said with mixed feelings. “Then why did they frame Charity? Charity has nothing to do with them.”
Cate glared at him frustratingly. “I realize that the two of you really become blockheads when it comes to the Neesons. Have you ever thought that if Charity wasn’t the one who was framed, Shaun and I wouldn’t have fought to that point?”
Shaun and Chester were stunned for a moment. However, they quickly understood.
Cate said, “Charity was my friend, and I definitely wouldn’t stand knowing my good friend was framed. In order to save her, I’d definitely fall out with Shaun, Rodney, and you.
“My poor relationship with Shaun also directly affected his condition. Later, his condition deteriorated, and he even started to lose his memory. He had to stay in the hospital often and rarely went to the company. In fact, I had already suspected back then that the fake Shelley was adding things in his milk.”
Chester pondered for a while, and a shadow flashed in his eyes. “If that’s true, maybe Shaun’s meals were indeed tampered with. His condition was deteriorating too quickly back then, but I didn’t suspect it at first. I thought that you triggered him.
The more Shaun listened, the more shocked he was.
He could not help but sigh. Mason was truly sinister and cruel.
Perhaps he was already targeted by Mason when he went to Melbourne. Mason had been secretly planning everything one step at a time.
He even saw through Wesley’s ambition and took the opportunity to win him over. They were both very shrewd people, so both Cate and Shaun were tricked.
“Cate, I’m sorry. If only I had trusted you a little more back then. We wouldn’t have ended up this way today.”
“No, we would still end up like this because Sarah appeared. At that time, I thought about it. If you could care so much about Sarah’s cousin, what if Sarah appeared? What I’m most afraid of still happened in the end. I was completely defeated. “
Cate said helplessly, “Before Sarah hypnotized you, you took me to a banquet. I was isolated and humiliated by your brothers, but you never took my side. All of you unconditionally favored Sarah, and your friends didn’t accept me. I had already lost confidence in our relationship, but I was pregnant at that time, so there was nothing I could do.”
Shaun looked chagrined. He could not recall a lot of what Cate said because his memory was disordered.
However, Chester apologized sincerely. “I’m sorry. You’re right. I was prejudiced against Charity back then, and I was also prejudiced against you. I apologize to you for everything I’ve done.”
Cate’s lips twitched. “You can apologize to me since I’m still alive, but what about the dead? Poor Charity’s name still isn’t cleared. What’s even worse is that right after she died, her parents died too, and her mother’s ashes were replaced by a dog’s.”
Chester was silent for a long time.
Charity’s cold and beautiful little face flashed in his mind.
After so many years, he found that he still remembered her appearance clearly.
Cate said with reddened eyes, “Do you know? Charity told me that she had a good relationship with you back then. But for some reason, even though it was always Sarah who bullied her, as soon as Sarah cried, all of you would think it was Charity who bullied Sarah. Maybe in your eyes, Sarah is the one who should always be protected.”
Chester was at a loss.
There were many things they had never thought about before. After hearing Cate’s words, it did seem like every time they saw Sarah crying in front of a cold-faced Charity, they thought that it was Charity who bullied Sarah.
So… it was him who misunderstood Charity all along?
Charity was wrongly accused. It was he who personally found a lawyer and sent her to prison.
Chester turned around and left silently, without even saying goodbye.
He was always disgusted by Charity and did not like her. He even regretted dating her when they were young.
However, now that she was no longer here, Chester did not feel much pain in his heart either. It was as if he was numb.
The outside world called him a playboy who was indifferent and heartless. He abandoned women the moment he got tired of playing with them, so he really did not understand what it was to love someone.
Chester stood in front of the window, lit a cigarette, and put it in his mouth.
As the smoke curled up, he remembered the taste of the first time he was with Charity in high school.
A young boy and girl with innocent hormones and feelings.
At that time, Charity’s young face was covered in a blush.
Later, that woman no longer remained fresh in his mind.
Perhaps in this life, he would never see the person named Charity Neeson again. If they met again, what should he say to her? Sorry?
I was wrong about you?
However, it was useless. The lost life would never come back.
In the ward.
