Chapter 178
“But you’ve gotten a marriage license.” Johnson huffed out an angry breath.
Theresa laughed, saying, “Calm down. Charlie and I will get a divorce.”
“When?” Johnson looked at her. He felt a little surprised. What a joke to get married and divorced so hurriedly! She
had
already divorced once, and this was going to be the second time!
Theresa said, “Wait first! Wait for Sarah to come back.”
Hearing Theresa’s words, Johnson looked at Theresa, guessing, “Charlie told you to do so?”
Theresa looked at her father and said, “Dad, you are so smart to find it out. You are right. But… Don’t tell Leah. I

two are close, but I’m your daughter! You can’t play favorites!”
Johnson heard Theresa’s words and said, “Your father is not stupid.”
“That’s good.”
After chatting with her father for a while, Theresa accompanied him back to the living room to rest. Although he
had been
discharged from the hospital, his body still needed to recuperate. Leah was cooking in the kitchen. Theresa sat on
the sofa, spending time with her father drinking tea. She intended to stay with his father to have a meal when her
phone suddenly rang.
Theresa looked at it and found a message from Roderick. “Have you had a meal yet?”
“I am going to have a meal.”
“Come out, I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Theresa was a little surprised. Although she and Roderick had met many times, it was the first time that Roderick
took the
initiative to invite her to a meal dinner. She asked, “What’s wrong?”
“There’s something I want to check with you about.” Roderick said, “Where are you? I’m coming to pick you up.”
“I’m at my house. Where will we have the meal? I’m coming over now.” Theresa was shocked that he was coming
to pick her up and was in such a hurry. She gave him her location.
Roderick made a reservation at a restaurant. Theresa took a taxi there and saw him at a window seat in the
restaurant. He wore a black jacket with a white shirt inside today, still as handsome as usual.

Theresa sat down, but felt his gaze on herself all the time as if she had something on her face. Theresa reached up
to touch her face and asked, “Dr. Hill, is there something dirty on my face today?”
Roderick heard her words and pursed his lips before picking up the menu and asking, “What would you like to eat?”
Theresa said, “Fine with me. I’m easy. It’s up to you. Well, it seems that you are not here to have a meal!” She felt
as if there
was something serious going on.
Roderick had already asked the waiter to come over and ordered food. The waiter served Theresa a glass of water.
Theresa was taking a drink of water when she heard Roderick ask, “Are those two kids of yours, Charlie’s?”
Hearing his words, Theresa nearly choked in shock. Her fingers stiffened and she raised her head with a smile on
her face: Looking at Roderick, she asked with a feigned composure, “Why do you say that?”
“Am I right?” Roderick looked at Theresa.
Theresa replied, “Of course not.” She thought, “How did he suddenly know? Didn’t he not know about this before?’
