As he spoke, he slowly straightened his body and retreated. “You have to understand that some things can be exposed easily. If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try.”
As Charity exchanged glances with him, her eyes gradually turned cold.
However, Chester continued to look straight into her eyes.
He admitted that he was despicable and shameless, but he just wanted to make things clear.
He just wanted her to tell the truth.
He used to stand in front of Charity’s cenotaph, wondering countless times how great it would have been if Charity were still alive…
There was a huge hole in his heart, one that Charity made.
In this life of his, she was the only one who could fill it.
“So what if I’m Charity? And so what if I’m not? What does it have to do with you?” In the end, Charity asked indifferently, “Who are you to me?”
Who was he to her?
Following that question, a look of shock flashed in Chester’s eyes. Somehow, he felt an unknown sense of confusion in his chest.
Charity leaned backward and felt as though she was completely relaxed. “Or do you think you can feel slightly less guilty knowing I’m Charity? Oh. When you think about Charity, you wonder, ¡®So what if I misunderstood her? So what if I was the one who sent her to jail? So what if she drowned in the sea?
In the end, she’s alive. See how well God has taken care of her. Despite drowning in the sea, she managed to come back with her soul and wake up in her best friend’s body. A lot of people hope that they’re bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster.'”
“No, no. That never crossed my mind.”
Chester denied it. Even his voice became tense and anxious.
“In that case, it means I’m overthinking things.” Charity’s red lips curled into a smile. “Don’t you feel guilty at all? You really are the cold-blooded and cruel Young Master Jewell.”
Chester’s expression changed a little. Having stayed awake the entire night, he looked like a sad mess. He was not as sophisticated as he usually looked. ” Charity, I do feel guilty toward you. After Sarah’s evil deeds were exposed, I realized I owe you way too much. I’m really happy that you can continue your life this way.”
“You may be pleased, but I’m not.”
Charity leaped to her feet, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
Charity leaped to her feet, and her eyes were filled with hatred. “I continue my life in this way to take revenge. But what about you? What did you do to me?”
Charity finally confessed.
At that moment, Chester’s heart that was in his throat finally settled back in his chest.
He guessed it right. She was Charity.
Charity did not disappear from the world.
However, her final question made Chester’s handsome face turn pale. 1
What had he done?
He thought she was Eliza, so he forced himself upon her and trampled on her over and over again. He also humiliated her and easily made her a sacrifice.
It suddenly hit Chester that all the evilest things he had ever done in his life were to Charity.
Charity said, “At first, I wanted to die together with Sarah, but you kept threatening me with Sarah’s kidnap. Chester, do you know what I was thinking when you used those ways to force yourself upon me?”
“Disgusting?” Chester uttered the word with difficulty.
“Yes. Disgusting.”
Charity said furiously, “Although I didn’t tell you I’m Charity, I used the identity of Charity’s childhood friend at that time. You claim that you feel guilty toward Charity and that my eyes look similar to Charity’s, yet how did you treat her friend? You forced yourself upon her and even treated her like a toy. At least you had a deal with other women, but with me? You treated me like a used cloth that you could throw and step on as you wished. Chester, through Eliza’s identity, I finally saw how disgusting and filthy you are.”
Chester fell silent.
However, his sturdy body was shivering.
Back then, Chester had never once regretted his actions.
Even with the issue that put him in jail for three months, Chester did not regret doing.
He found the Eliza at that time interesting, and the Eliza after he got out of jail made him feel like conquering her.
However, the current Eliza… No, wait. She was now Charity.
Charity stared at his handsome face, her body trembling with rage. “I regret it a lot, Chester. I regret falling in love with you back then. I fell in love with the wrong person. I loved a person who’s trashy and sc*mmy.
“I can accept that you’re unfaithful. It doesn’t matter because I might not be good enough for failing to make you want to settle with me. It was my wishful thinking. However, what you did to me during that period made me feel like I was blind to have once fallen in love with a devil who doesn’t have a moral baseline.
“I remember asking you whether you’d feel guilty or uncomfortable about sleeping with Charity’s friend. Perhaps you wouldn’t. For men like you, women simply serve to satisfy your physical needs.” Charity snorted.
Chester’s face was ashen.
His internal organs that had just recovered twitched once again, almost leaving him breathless.
Charity’s words felt like a slap to her face.
That was true.
Why did he do those things back then?
Why did he force himself upon her?
Was there no other woman in the world?
Was he out of his mind at that time?
“Charity, as I told you, I found your eyes similar to yours. I couldn’t help it…”
Chester removed his glasses while trembling. From his bloodshot eyes, he looked very helpless. “It turns out that my instinct is right. If you hadn’t woken up in Eliza’s body, I wouldn’t be interested in Eliza. You were the one who has been enthralling me all along.”
“In that case, should I feel touched?” Charity asked softly.
Chester’s lips parted before he forced a bitter laugh.
“Chester, if you were a bit more attentive instead of being cold and cruel toward me when you forced me to be with you, I wouldn’t hate you so much now.”
Charity said accusingly, “When you sleep with other women, you’d pay them and buy them houses and cars. Yet, what about me? Even the women standing on the streets have it better than me. In the end, you even took full advantage of me. Is that what you meant by being guilty toward Charity? You didn’t even spare her friend.”
Her words were like a barbed whip.
Chester’s face paled, and his chest heaved.
For a moment, he seemed to understand what guilt, speechlessness, embarrassment, and the tugging at his heart felt like.
“I also didn’t know why things turned out that way.”
Chester said with difficulty, “As I said, it was my first time forcing myself upon a woman. When I met you, I was like a madman. I treated you as Charity’s substitute the entire time, but only now have I realized that you’re Charity. Even if I’m a devil, I became one because of you.”
Charity was stunned.
Suddenly, she recalled his words the other night when he said he had fallen in love with her.
Chester said, “Ever since Sarah told me the misunderstandings between us before her death, the name ¡®Charity’ has been weighing heavily on my mind, and I can’t let you go. We’ve missed out on so many things and misunderstood each other. All the time, I think that if she were still alive, I must make amends for my wrongdoings and apologize to her. I never thought that you’ve always been by my side…”
Suddenly, a rush of frustration and pain overcame him. “Charity, all I can say is I wouldn’t have treated you that way if you hadn’t woken up in Eliza’s body. I’m a devil and sc*mbag, but I really loved you back then. I’ve only been in love with two people in my entire life. The first time was with Charity, and the second, Eliza, who sent me to jail.”
He looked at her.
Only at that moment did he actually see the light.
By the time he treated Eliza as his well-matched competitor, he had already fallen in love with her.
