Chapter 167
Cristina sat on the couch, looked at the neat home, and exclaimed, “Sweetie, you’re wonderful.”
Theresa took a glance at her and asked, “You haven’t eaten, have you?”
“No, I’ll order a takeaway.”
Ordering take-out was a regular operation for Cristina to solve the problem of eating. She always did it when she
was home alone, and she never even used the kitchen at home.
Theresa said, “I brought some food from home. I’ll make dinner, don’t go out, Leonard hasn’t eaten either.” “I
thought their father prepared dinner.” Cristina asked, “Didn’t Leonard eat?”
The Calsis family had always been generous. Cristina had a meal there before and still missed the delicious.
food. Especially the dishes cooked by Brenda, which were the most delicious food ever.
Theresa told her about how Charlie had punished Leonard, and Cristina sneered, “He’s just targeting me! It’s a
good thing I’m not the mother of the two kids, otherwise, I would have been really pissed off at him. But you’d
better find a chance to talk to Charlie about the kids! We can’t keep lying to him.”

She also felt that it was necessary to tell him the truth. Every time he talked about Cristina behind her back,
Cristina couldn’t hear him, but she was pissed off to death.
Theresa went into the kitchen and began to cook dinner while Cristina lay on the couch, enjoying the comfort of
being taken care of by Theresa.
Not long after, her phone rang. Cristina took out her phone, glanced at it, and pressed speaker.
Theresa heard Rose’s voice on the phone, “Cristina.”
Theresa was cutting some vegetables when she heard Rose’s words. She then lowered her voice and listened
carefully.
“What’s up?” asked Cristina.
“Did Theresa bring Leonard there?” Rose asked curiously.
“Yes, she did.”
“Are you two close?” Rose asked.
Cristina said, “I think she’s a good person.”
Rose got anxious when she heard it, “How can you be so naive too? How could Theresa be a good person? My
grandmother wanted to bring Leonard and Ben back before, but she tried every means to stop that, and even
asked my Uncle Charlie to go against grandmother.”
Cristina, afraid that Theresa would not hear what Rose was saying, stood up and walked over to her with the
phone so Theresa could hear clearly.
Rose said, “Now Leonard and Ben have returned to the Calsis family. I don’t know what my Uncle Charlie is
thinking about. He actually asked Theresa to take care of the two children. You don’t know that Leonard even
smashed Jimmy today.”
Cristina looked at the phone and said silently, “He deserved it.”
Rose continued, “You are the mother of Leonard and Ben. You can’t just let that go. You should find a chance to
talk to my uncle Charlie. No matter what, don’t ask Theresa to take care of the two boys. She can’t even take
good care of her own children. Who knows what bad influence she would give on Leonard and Ben!”
Hearing his, Cristina took a look at Theresa.
Theresa raised her eyebrows and said nothing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that Cristina was keeping silent, Rose asked, “Sister Cristina, are you still listening?”
“I am listening,” Cristina replies., “Don’t worry, I will talk to your Uncle Charlie about this.”
“That’ll be good,” Rose said, “If you’re free, you can come to my place to visit Leonard and Ben. You can call me
at any time.”
Cristina replied, “Okay, got it.”
Cristina hung up the phone, rested one hand on Theresa’s shoulder, and said, “I can’t pretend it anymore! I’m
losing my mind listening to her talk like that every day.”
Theresa looked at her and smiled. “I think it’s quite interesting.”
“How could that be interesting? Are you a masochist?”
“No, you are.” Theresa handed the smashed cucumbers over to Cristina and asked, “Take this out.”
“Okay.” Cristina took a bite before placing the cucumber on the table outside.
Theresa cooked two more dishes and a bow of soup.
During the meal, Leonard sat to the side, while Cristina picked up some food for him and said, “You should eat
more Leonard.”
Leonard ate very well.
