I would just advice him to ask for forgiveness and leave her alone...
His sins cannot be forgotten and he is beyond redemption.. Charlize suffered way too much

Why the hell did I, my ass. Yeah, why the hell did you? Only now you realize you've been a shitty father, and now that she's gone, you want her to come back? She's suffered enough in your "care", so just fuck off and live with it.
Yeah, it feels bad. But you're already a grown adult + an old man, you should've realized it sooner. Now, it's too late. I can't fully hate him because he realized his mistake, but the way he's doing it is wrong.
Either sincerely talk to Charlize, or leave her alone.
