This is the last question I need to finish the assignment, any help is appreciated!

For the following question, you must choose a "side" and use evidence from the text to support your position. No "stuck in the middle" answers.

(1. Do you think Armand feels remorse in light of the information provided in the final sentences of the story? (Provide at least 2 pieces of textual evidence)

In my opinion, Armand must feel great remorse. He turned his back on his wife and child because he questioned Desiree's racial heritage without even considering his own..... they are now gone, and he is alone.... and he provoked the situation, practically showed Desiree the door.
