Chapter 277
Theresa had informed Brenda in the morning that Shepard would come, so she came to report to them now.
Hearing her words, Theresa responded, “I see!”
She helped Charlie sit down, walked to the door, opened it, and said, “Brenda, please ask him to come upstairs.”
Brenda nodded, “By the way, Mrs. Nandlall and Mr. Watson came back today.”
Hearing this, Theresa said, “Haven’t they moved out of the house?”
When they had left, they had acted as if they would never come back. But they returned after only two days!
Brenda replied, “Mrs. Nandlall said she left something here, so she came back to take it. And she would like to see
Old Mr. Calsis in passing.”
Rose had always been very filial. She was always very kind to Old Mr. Calsis and often accompanied him when she
had time. Although Theresa was on bad terms with her, she admired her in this aspect. So, she replied, “I see!”

Now, Shepard was drinking coffee downstairs in the living room after the servant had made some for him.
Jimmy sat next to him and asked, “Are you Mr. Brown?”
Shepard nodded.
Jimmy hurriedly stood up and shook hands with him, saying, “I’ve long been looking forward to meeting you.”
When he had tried to drive Theresa away, he had wanted to let Shepard give Charlie acupuncture treatments.
Shepard was a well-known acupuncturist, and many sports stars were his clients. But Charlie seemed to have been
bewitched by Theresa
at that time and had insisted on hiring Theresa. So, Jimmy had never had a chance to introduce Shepard to him.
And he had never expected Shepard to come here today.
When Shepard smiled at Jimmy, the latter handed over his business card and said, “I’m Jimmy Watson, the general
manager of Nandlall’s Group.”
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Watson,” Shepard said politely.
Jimmy asked curiously, “What brought you here today?”
“I came to see Mr. Calsis.”
That was what Jimmy had guessed. Hearing Shepard say so, he became surer that Theresa and Charlie were going
to
divorce soon. Otherwise, they would not have asked Shepard to come over.
Jimmy put on a worried look and said, “Charlie has always been in poor health. It is a good thing that you came to
see him. Theresa has been giving him acupuncture treatments recently. But I don’t know whether he is recovering.”
He had wanted to say Theresa was unable to cure Charlie at all, but he knew he could not sound so mean when
talking with Shepard.
When Brenda came downstairs, she saw them chatting. When Jimmy mentioned Theresa, Brenda sighed helplessly.
knowing he was speaking ill of her again. She had never expected that there was such a shameless man in this

Shepard stood up, smiled at Jimmy, and went upstairs.
Theresa was waiting at the door. Seeing him coming up, she smiled, “Shepard, good morning.” Then, she took the
initiative to
shake hands with him and said, “Long time no see.”
She had only met him twice in total before. She had first met him at Leo’s place. And when she had come across
him outside, they had had a meal together.
Shepard was Leo’s student, but he had a wider range of contacts than the latter. He was young and from a well-
connected family, so he had a lot of connections and access to many celebrities. Therefore, his income was high.
However, he still treated Leo very well now and didn’t forget Leo’s kindness to him after he had become successful
in his career.
Shepard looked at her and smiled, “Theresa, good morning.”
Charlie was looking at them through the door in his wheelchair. When he saw Theresa smiling flatteringly at
Shepard, he felt disgusted
