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 Catherine and Shaun were tricked.
"Cathy, 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."
Catherine 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 Catherine 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."
Catherine'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.
Catherine 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."
