Chapter 2738

“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.

That was why he went to her villa in the middle of the night.

That was why he was bothered to see Max with her.

However, it was only today that he understood that the person he had been in love with all along was
Charity.

In this world, only Charity’s soul could make him fall for her.

Charity looked at him calmly. “I can clearly tell you that the only time I’ve ever been in love was when I
met you at 17.”

Chester’s heart suddenly began to pound, and he was overwhelmed with joy.

“But… So what?” Charity said, “Do you think I still know how to love someone after everything I’ve
been through? My ability to love died the moment you sent me to jail.”



Chester’s lips parted arduously.

It turned out that she still loved him back then.

Yet, he was extremely cruel toward her.

How great would it have been if Sarah had not died? He would be torturing Sarah to death. “I’m sorry.
At that time, the evidence I found was directed at you…”

“How unfortunate of me to have been framed.”

Charity’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile. “I just think it’s ridiculous that the person I loved the
most didn’t trust me and later even sent me to jail. That was frustrating, but what agonized me the most
was when Sarah came to visit me in jail and told me smugly about how she killed my parents.”
