Chapter 736 Why Do You Dislike Her?
Dick, however, ignored Brenda’s question, remaining aloof.
Theresa made the decision for him. “Please give him a glass of water,” she said.
Brenda nodded and took away the tea she had brought earlier.
Sitting down on the couch. Theresa commented on Dick’s coldness. “You really are quite distant. Brenda asked you
a question and you didn’t even respond a word.”
Dick replied, “Isn’t it tiring to go to such lengths to please others? I’m not familiar with her. I don’t like talking to
strangers.”
Theresa said, “Well, you are indeed focused on your own life. Actually, I kind of envy you.” In her daily life, she
found it really difficult to live without considering others’ feelings. She always took into account the other person’s
feelings or thoughts when dealing with people every day, fearing that her manner might not be proper. Dick asked,

envied him or not. He felt quite comfortable at Theresa’s house, and after a short while, he went outside with
Leonard and Ben to bask in the sun.
Noticing Brenda working hard in the kitchen. Theresa walked over and inquired, “Has Charlie come back yet?”
“Not yet,” Brenda replied.
Theresa said, “Okay, I just wonder where he took my car!”
Brenda wiped her hands dry immediately, asking, “Should I give him a call for you?”
“No, thanks. I’ll just send him a message to tell him that I’m back.” Theresa shook her head. She hadn’t seen
Charlie when she left Dick’s house. She was clear that it was quite impossible for him to wait for her and drive. her
back since she stayed in Dick’s house for quite a while. Now, wanting to know where Charlie parked her car, she
picked up her phone to send Charlie a message. [I’m home. When are you bringing my car back?]
In a short while, Charlie replied a short one. [Have you left your boyfriend’s house?]
Theresa frowned at the word ‘boyfriend’. ‘Is he trying to annoy me?’ she wondered. With that thought, she
replied to Charlie without mincing words. [Yes, and he’s at my place now. You had better come back hours later so
that you don’t have to see him and avoid a fight.]
As soon as he read Theresa’s message, Charlie’s face fell.
Jack’s bar was closed during the day, providing a good place for Charlie and Roderick to hang out and chat.
Roderick sat beside Charlie, cracking nuts while looking at Charlie. “Have you contacted Theresa recently?” Charlie
pressed his lips into a line with an unhappy look. “She’s with Dick now.”
Roderick said, “Well, well, you deserve it. How could you choose to have an affair with Sarah? I mean, you could
choose another beauty since your admirers are so many. Theresa hasn’t got along well with Sarah, don’t you

didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“Didn’t you already know about it?” Roderick didn’t want to take the blame when Charlie came to accuse him. “I
was going to tell you last time, but you said you already knew. Don’t you remember?”
“No, I, I just… I just thought you were implying that her kids were Dick’s!” Charlie shouted, feeling depressed. “I
haven’t expected that she is the natural mother of Leonard and Ben.” Taking a deep breath, he went on in a
frustrated voice. “Well, If I can’t be with Theresa, you must help me find another good wife.”
Roderick couldn’t believe what he just heard. Staring at Charlie with surprise in his eyes, he yelled back, “Hey,

you can’t blame me. I did tell you to cherish Theresa before you divorced, but you just didn’t listen to me at that
time and still treated her poorly. Theresa was a good wife, wasn’t she? Why do you dislike her?”
Charlie felt puzzled, asking, “No, why would you think that I dislike her? When did I ever do such a thing? I haven’t
disliked her, okay?” Theresa had long been such an important woman in his life that he would never treat her badly.
Roderick frowned. “Really? But that’s what Theresa said. She said you disliked her because she had been Jimmy’s
wife before. You even never touched her.”
