Chapter 507
Theresa’s lips curled. “She asked me if I had known you could stand up and blamed me for not telling her earlier.”
“She’s insane. Don’t take it to heart!” Charlie was in a good mood at the thought that Sarah was
now very angry.
Theresa wiped the water off her hair and Charlie took the towel naturally. He was very sweet and loving toward her.
Theresa stared at his handsome face. “Charlie.”
“Huh?” Charlie looked at her with a concerned look in his eyes.
Theresa asked, “Did you ever like Sarah?”
Charlie frowned and glared at her in disgust. “Ow! It’s disgusting!”

“Of course not. I never liked her,” Charlie said firmly.
“Then why were you with her?” Theresa asked curiously.
“Because of Grandpa. He wanted me to marry a woman from the Cameron family! I thought it would be the same
to marry anyone so I might as well grant his wish.” He just hadn’t expected Sarah to run away from the wedding.
He was resentful at the thought of Grandpa getting dementia because of her. Fortunately, now he could stand up.
He only hoped that Grandpa would get better soon.
Theresa was satisfied with his answer. She sat up straight and looked out the window. It was
raining and the car was moving slowly. It suddenly occurred to her that Charlie had married her partly because of
Grandpa. ‘Does he like me?’ The question was pointless. She had known what love was. It made no difference
whether he liked her or not.
Soon they returned home. The two children went in first.
Old Mr. Calsis was still awake and Leticia was talking with him on the couch. Seeing Theresa,
he waved with a smile. “Sarah, let’s play chess.”
Charlie reminded him, “Grandpa, this is Theresa.” He was frustrated that Grandpa had been
calling Theresa by the wrong name lately. He knew Grandpa was confused and mistook Theresa for Sarah, but he
still wanted to correct him.
“Sarah, come here!” Old Mr. Calsis ignored him and just stared at Theresa.
Leticia said to Theresa with a smile, “He can’t stop talking about you! Just play with him for a
while or he won’t go to sleep.”

Old Mr. Calsis stood up excitedly. “Great.”
Theresa and the two children went with him to play chess.
Charlie stared after them and sat down.
The butler helped set up the pieces. Theresa and Old Mr. Calsis sat down.
Theresa spoke up, “Grandpa.”
“Huh?” Old Mr. Calsis placed the pieces on the board carefully.
Theresa continued, “Will you call me Tess instead of Sarah?”
“Why?” Old Mr. Calsis gave her a puzzled look. “You’re Sarah.”
Theresa was frustrated. “I’m not Sarah. Sarah has come back. Do you like her that much?” She
knew Old Mr. Calsis was confused, but she minded being called Sarah and wanted him to
correct himself!
Old Mr. Calsis grinned. “I like you.”
Theresa’s lips curled into a smile.
