Ican’tdescribemyfeelingatthefirstsightofhim。Totellthetruth，hewasnoteye-catchingatthattime。WhenthereaderswereimmersedinthemeetingbetweenLucieandCharles，heonlyplayedalittleroleasalawyerwhohadthesamefacewithCharlesande*tricatedhimfromaccusationthroughthispoint。

Thentheywenttodrink。Withoutscruple，Cartone*pressedhisdisliketoCharles。Yes，theyhadthesameface。Buttheyweredifferent。Cartonwasalittlelawyer，whileCharleswasasuccessfulman。Cartonwasquitefreeandeasy，whileCharleswasgracefulandnoble。Infact，theywereabsolutelytwodistinctivemene*ceptfortheirappearance。Certainly，whatCartoncaredaboutwasnotthewealthortheposition，buttheloveofLucie。HerealizedthatLucielovedCharles，sohewasbarelyoutofcontrolatthattime。

EverytimeIreadthispart，Icouldfeelhissincerityandbroad-minded。Bynomeanswouldhesayalie。Hemusttellyouwhathethinksintheheart。ItisSydneyCarton，atrueman。

Afterashorttime，hecan’tresisthimselfgoingtoseeLucie。Butwhenhesteppedintothesmallforest，hesawLucieandCharlesgettingtogetherhappily。Hedidn’trushtowardsthem，however，hereturnedwithoutaword。Thoughhehadaperiodofdepressionafterthat，hewasclearwhoLucielovedwasnothim。Sowhatheonlywoulddowastoblessher。

Somedayslater，hecametomeetLucieagain。HestilltoldLucieabouthislove，althoughheknewitwasuseless。Hejustwantedhertoknowit，ashesaid，“Iwantyoutoknowthatyouaremylastdreaminmylife。”

Manytimes，loveisathingaboutonlyoneperson。“Iloveyou。”It’smybusiness，notyours。

SowhenCartonshowedhisdeeplovetoLucie，Isuddenlyfeltthatthismanwassolovelyanddeservedtobeloved。

“Rememberalwaysthere’samanwhocouldgivehislifetoyou，oranyoneyoulove。”Cartonleftwiththesewords。Butalloftheseseemedasignofmisfortune。

Someyearspassed。WhenLucieappearedinthefrontofCarton，shebecameamother。Thistime，Lucie’sfacewasfilledwithan*iety。BecauseCharleswasinprisonandwouldbekilledsoon。Whatleadtothiswastheplicatedandfilthypast。

Fromthepoint，thedirtyofsocietywasreflected。Itwasthesorrowinthatperiod。Buttheymustpayforthissorrow。SoitwasthetimethatCartonachievedhispermission。“Itoldyouonce，foryouIwoulddoanything。Iwill。”Hesaid。
