Chapter 389 Charisa Neller

“Yes.”

Elvis wiped his eyes and raised his head. His eyes shimmered with tears as he looked at Damien. “Old Mr. Lenoir found me when my mother was seriously ill. I was searching for a way to make money in the black market.”

“However…”

He laughed bitterly. “Thirteen years ago, I was traumatized by what happened and vowed never to commit arson or harm anyone again. Instead, I planned to sell my blood or organs.”

“Unexpectedly, even after all these years, Old Mr. Lenoir still had someone waiting to capture me in the black market.”

Although Elvis was staring directly at Damien, his gaze seemed distant. Later, he sent people to beat me up and threatened to hand me over to the police.”

“I admitted that I deserved punishment for my crime, but I begged to be allowed to say goodbye to my family. My mother was dying, and the daughter I raised had reached a marriageable age. I pleaded to see them one last time.”

“Old Mr. Lenoir took pity on me and asked if I would do something in exchange for forgiveness. He knew I was just a pawn. Even if I hadn’t started the fire, the mastermind would have found someone else…”

“I was desperate and had no choice but to do as Old Mr. Lenoir said.”

“Then, I showed Cherise your photo and asked if she would be with you….”

Elvis looked down and laughed bitterly. “At the time, I thought if she agreed, I could pretend it was a normal matchmaking and move on.

“If she didn’t want to marry you, I wouldn’t force her. I knew I would eventually have to go to prison.”

“However, I didn’t expect her to agree when she saw your photo. She even put it under her pillow, saying you were her lucky star.”

“At the time, her aunt and I questioned her, thinking she was just trying to put us at ease. We were worried that she only agreed to marry you to save my mother.”

“Later, we realized that… she really did like you…”

Elvis raised his head again and focused on Damien. “But fate played a cruel trick. I thought everything would be over after Cherise married you.”

“Who knew…”
