Chapter 052 Let’s Have Dinner Tonight
Theresa said, “I love you so much, but I couldn’t tell you before because of our contract. What if I couldn’t live without you after I move to your house and someday you drive me away? How pathetic I am. You know I’ve divorced once, and I
don’t wanna be abandoned again.”
She knew that he was too narcissistic.
On the day they had married, he was worried that he might be stuck with her.
And now if she appeared to love him very much, Charlie would wanna run away from her. After all, he hated trouble. Theresa had managed to come up with this last night. Retreat in order to advance!
And then she just had to see what would happen next.
When Theresa was done, she looked at Charlie with eager and affectionate eyes.
And she was sure that Charlie would show disgust.
However, he was indifferent at all.
Sitting on the sickbed, he went on with his lunch.
It perplexed Theresa!
What was wrong with him?
Wenn Sie über 40 sind - dieses Spiel ist ein Muss! Das fesselndste Spiel, das je gemacht wurde!
Was his porridge that delicious?
For God’s sake, say something!
Charlie ate up his porridge, and glanced at Theresa. “You love me, and I already knew it. You have given me some hope,
and are kinda useful to me. So I’m giving you a chance to live in my house, which not everyone can easily get!”
He sounded like a God distributing alms.
Deep down Theresa couldn’t help despising him!
Unbelievable!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn’t get him at all!
Charlie raised his head, and saw Theresa’s unpleasant eyes. “You’re touched? Are you crying?”
Hell…
Touched my ass!
She got pissed!
Charlie went, “If you don’t have time to pack up, just leave it. I’ll have everything you need prepared.”
So there was no way she could live in her own place.
She did all that work for nothing.
Wenn Sie über 40 sind - dieses Spiel ist ein Muss! Das fesselndste Spiel, das je gemacht wurde!
Theresa went silent, sitting angrily beside him.
At this moment Charlie’s phone rang. “Pass me the cell.”
Theresa glimpsed at him, and took it for him. He grabbed the phone and glanced at her, confused. Why wasn’t she
grateful? What was she pissed at?
It’s true that women can’t be spoiled!
The more you dote op her, the more she’s gonna ask for!
Charlie ignored her, and answered the phone.
Right at this fime Theresa’s cell rang too. It was Cristina. She went out of the ward with the phone.
Cristina was meeting Leticia today. They should be done by now.
Before Cristina left, Theresa had reminded her several times on WhatsApp to stick to the plan.
“Yeah.” Standing in the corridor, Theresa picked it up.
Cristina exploded, “Damn you, Theresa! You’re married?!”
Theresa twitched her lips, took the phone away a little, and replied when Cristina was finished, “Yep.”
“How dared you keep it from me? I’m the last one in the world to know that! You wretched woman!” Cristina was getting
more furious. She was Theresa’s best friend!
No one could play them off against each other
And in the end, Cristina was ignorant of Theresa’s marriage.
Theresa said, “I just didn’t think it was necessary to tell you.”
“Why? It’s Charlie, OK? Do you have any idea how wealthy his family is? Jimmy, that bastard, was proud every day of
himself for having married Rose. And you just married Charlie!”
Last night when Cristina had mentioned the Calsis Family, Theresa said that it was hard for her to be Mrs. Calsis.
Unforgivable!
Jesus! That was what Cristina’s best friend had done!
Theresa coughed, “There are some reasons…”
“Oh yeah? What reasons?” Cristina must get to the bottom of it.
Theresa begged, “May I explain to you face to face tonight after I get home?”
She looked back at the ward. Theresa had promised Charlie that this secret shall only be kept among him, Cristina, and
her.
If someone here in the hospital overheard her, there would be big trouble!
“No. I wanna hear it now!”
“Well, we got married, but our relationship is not what you think. He doesn’t love me, and I don’t love him. When the
thing is done, we’ll divorce.”
“What?” Cristina was shocked. “Why?”
“Do you really think I can be Mrs. Calsis on my own? I told you last night what had happened. Please don’t talk about
Leonard and Ben with anyone else.”
Theresa knew that she wouldn’t have a future with the Calsis Family. So by no means would she involve her kids with
them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCristina couldn’t fully understand. “Fine. Explain to me tonight. You owe me, bitch.”
Theresa laughed, “Last night I was your sweetheart, and now I’m a bitch?”
“Yes. Shut up.” Cristina laughed too.
Theresa hung up and went back to the ward. Charlie had finished his phone call and his lunch.
He asked, “Put the dishes away.”
Theresa did as he asked. Charlie glanced at her. “And uh… We’re having dinner at home. Don’t be late.”
“Tonight?”
“Hmm. With my mom’s guest.” Charlie had a long face, dissatisfied.
Theresa saw that. “You don’t like that guest, do you?”
“You’ll know it by then. When are you picking the boys up?” Charlie was used to it that Theresa was a mother too.
“Three pm,” Theresa said. “Today the school closes earlier because of the holiday.”
“Come back after you get them home. We’re done here.” Lying on the bed, Charlie grabbed his pen and paper, and
continued working on his designs.
In the afternoon, having taken the babies home, Theresa went to the hospital.
Jonathan had finished Charlie’s discharge procedures by then.
They went back to the Calsis Family together.
It was almost six o’clock when they came home, right about the dinnertime.
Charlie was sitting in the wheelchair, followed by Theresa and Jonathan. The dinner was ready.
Leticia was chatting with her guest in the dining room right now.
Cristina…
Theresa was astounded to see her.
What was she doing here?
Sitting on the chair, Cristina saw Charlie and Theresa, but she deliberately ignored her best friend. After all, she had told
Leticia that she wasn’t familiar with Charlie’s wife.
