She thought, “How am | any different from an ungrateful wretch?”
She cried like a child, overwhelmed with guilt!
Sebastian walked over and hugged her, gently patting her back. His voice was warm and forgiving, without a

Once she calmed down, he asked, “Lottie, did someone tell you these things?”
Charlotte sniffled but remained quiet.
“It was Arthur, right? He regrets the divorce, doesn’t he?” Sebastian said. “That man is so manipulative. He's
trying to shift
made all his guilt onto others to clear his conscience. Lottie, you the right choice divorcing him.”

Charlotte nodded, her voice muffled.
A worried look crossed Sebastian's face. “But Joanna is just an ordinary person. She won't be able to handle it if

wasn't the only victim. | was, too.”

She looked at him with tear-stained eyes. “She indirectly hurt
me.”
Sebastian was at a loss for words. He slumped into a chair, hanging his head in defeat.
Charlotte didn’t soften her stance or say anything to comfort him.
She thought, “Arthur's part of the puzzle is solved.
But what about my side of things?
If it wasn’t Sebastian, then who could it be?”

Charlotte felt utterly lost, her mind confused with no clear path forward.
“Lottie, I'm sorry,” Sebastian finally spoke up, his voice hoarse.

happened back then. | really like her.”
He lifted his face to look at her, his eyes red with emotion.
