"Over the years, I've hurt a total of seven women ... Before I die, I want to ask for their forgiveness ... Only then can I rest in peace ... Maybe I can still meet Lola after doing it.” Chester said very sincerely.
Hearing that, Gerald only nodded slightly without saying a word, a clear sign of his agreement.
Gerald was fine with granting his request because it seemed like Chester really wanted to repent. The fact that Chester remembers where every one of the seven women he has hurt lives makes Gerald even more convinced that Chester is serious about his request.
Shortly after, Chester and Gerald walk into a farmer's house. As soon as the door was opened, the pale-faced Chester knelt down in front of a family of three consisting of the daughter he had hurt with his parents.
“Young master ?! A-for what do we owe the pleasure..?” stammering the father, as the three of them trembled in fear.
“I came to beg your forgiveness! Although I am well aware that I may never be able to compensate for all the mistakes I have made, I promise to do whatever you ask in an effort to make up for what I have done! I also don't mind taking my life!” chester.
"N-no need for any of that!" squeak his daughter—who had previously been his victim— in a frightened tone as he hid behind his parents while shaking his head quickly.
“I beg of you! Please, let me do something to show my sincerity!” pinta the young master while continuing to kneel there.
“As he said, you can tell him to do anything. Even telling him to kill himself was not an option! Come, choose..” added Gerald—who has been standing next to Chester all this time—while staring at a family of three.
"…Huh?" chester said, stunned for a moment. However, he quickly returned to his senses before nodding and heading to the well to begin his task. Shortly after, the water tank was filled.
"That'll work!" a family word that was clearly still afraid of him, but not as scared as it was at first. After all, the young master did not seem to have the usual awe-inspiring aura surrounding him at the moment.
Hearing that, Chester then stood in front of them again before saying, “I... don't have much savings, but this is one hundred and fifty thousand dollars! Please accept!"
With that, Chester extended the money to the three until they finally gave up and received the cash.
Afterwards, Chester and Gerald left the family home to repeat the process with six other families on Montholm Island.
Finally, Chester knelt in front of Jasmine as soon as they arrived at the manor where Gerald was currently staying.
Looking at the young master, Jasmine quickly hid behind Gerald before shouting, “A-ah! He's here, Gerald!”
“...While I did not physically hurt you, Miss Fenderson, I still hurt Lord Fenderson and your family members..The two almost died because of me, and I sincerely hope you will forgive me.
