"I never used to be like this.” Chester stared at Charity and suddenly said, "Back then, I wanted to love someone with all my heart too. However, just as I started to fall in love with her, a lot of things happened, which led me to stop believing in relationships.”
Charity was stunned.
Did Chester fall in love with someone back then?
Who was it?
Could it have happened before he got together with her?
Now that she recalled it, she was purely cannon fodder.
"I'm curious what kind of woman managed to trap you. Young Master Jewell." Charity turned around and poured a cup of water for herself.
"You know her too. It's Charity. Charity Neeson."
Chester’s voice sounded from behind.
"Cough, cough."
Charity choked on the water she had just swallowed.
She coughed for a long time until her eyes reddened. Then, a hand gently patted her back. “Are you alright?"
Charity shrugged his hand off and glowered at him, her eyes full of resentment. "I'm not. Chester, please don't make sport of a dead person."
"Do you think I'm trying to amuse you?" Chester looked at her with a grim expression.
"If not, what is this?" Charity sneered. "How could you possibly love Charity? You were just tricking an innocent young woman. You were the one who sent her to jail."
If she were not Charity, she might have fallen for Chester’s words.
However, she was the party involved.
She knew full well how Chester treated her.
After he asked her out for the first time, and they were having a sweet time, he mercilessly said that he wanted to break up with her.
“Duh. Charity is my friend. I want to know everything relating to her." Indeed, Charity's curiosity was piqued.
Sarah must have done a lot of bad deeds, and what she said in court was just the tip of the iceberg. There were surely many other things that she had yet to expose.
"Since you want to know...” Chester shook and crossed his legs. "Pour me a glass of wine."
"Don't say it then. You can keep it to yourself."
Charity turned around and left.
With alcohol involved, it was easy for things to get out of control between a man and a woman, so why would she drink with a man at such a late hour? She was not out of her mind either.
"Actually, I broke up with Charity all because Sarah secretly made mischief." Chester's voice rang out from behind.
Charity was momentarily dazed. She stopped in her tracks but did not look back.
Chester took a deep drag on his cigarette." Sarah deliberately imitated Charity’s handwriting and wrote a diary, which I found. Many things were written in the diary, like Charity did not like me, all she loved were my status and wealth, she wanted to take advantage of me, and she actually liked a classmate named Larry Parker."
