Chapter 431
As if her throat was damaged, Theresa found it challenging to even speak normally. When Charlie heard her voice,
his cold eyes finally had some emotions in them. He turned around and quickly walked towards Theresa. Jonathan
immediately stood up and gave way to Charlie.
Charlie squatted down and looked at Theresa. Seeing Theresa had come to her senses, he
asked, “You okay?”
The care and concern in his eyes were almost pouring out. Theresa looked at this man and suddenly felt like crying.
She decided to follow her heart, leaned over and into Charlie’s arms. Suddenly, Charlie felt like his heart was
fulfilled somehow. He held her in his arms, carried her up, and walked out the door.
It was not long ago that Charlie could walk again, so walking was already a difficult enough task. for him. He should

Jonathan looked at Jimmy, who was squatting on the floor, bleeding. Rose and Rosales were
checking his injuries.
“Mr. Calsis, what about him?”
With Theresa in his arms, Charles stood at the door, looked at Jimmy who was guarded by two women, and
ordered, “Take him away!”
Then, Charlie carried Theresa out of the washroom.
Leah and Johnson Cameron just arrived as well. Seeing Charlie and Theresa, Johnson asked, “Is Theresa okay?”
Charlie replied, “You guys go home first.” He had no time for the two of them since Theresa was in a bad state, so
he told them to go home for now before he left.
Theresa looked at Charlie, who was carrying her, and said, “Charlie, put me down.”
Her mind was a little fuzzy earlier, only now did she realize the situation she was in. She wanted to speak to her
father, but she had no time to do so.
Charlie pursed his lips and continued walking without saying anything. Theresa then added, “Your legs can’t take it.”
“Is he crazy? Doesn’t he know his legs won’t last like this?’ She thought.
“Keep still. Charlie glanced at her and continued carrying her out the gate. Jonathan already called the driver, who
was waiting at the gate with the car. Charlie gently placed Theresa in the

In the washroom, Rosales was watching her injured son. She wanted to send him to the hospital,
but Jonathan did not give her the chance to. Instead, he brought Jimmy right out the gate and
threw him into the car.
On their way home, Charlie sat beside Theresa with a towel in his hands, wiping her face, and then her hands. It

In the past, Theresa had always taken care of Charlie. Now, it was the other way around. Theresa felt worthless.
Having just narrowly escaped death, she looked at the man beside her. His face was cold and he did not say a word,
yet she could sense the concern he had for her from every move he made. She did not want him to be so worried,
so she coughed and said with a raspy voice, “I’m okay.”
Charlie did not reply.
Theresa said again, “Mr. Calsis.”
She really had thought she was going to die back in that washroom, she never expected to see Charlie’s face again.
After having survived a life-threatening situation, surprisingly, she felt a slight sense of warmth.
Charlie said solemnly, “Don’t speak.”
He was in a really bad mood as he had no idea where to vent this burning fury inside him, even more so when he
