Charlie said yes. He sat on the side, putting food into Theresa’s bowl.
Mrs. Calsis asked, “Theresa, would you like some rice?” It gratified Mrs. Calsis to look at
Theresa.
Theresa answered, “Yes, please.”
Brenda hurried over to add some rice for her.
Mrs. Calsis went on, “I am grateful to Theresa. Charlie’s recovery owes to her hard work. Let’s
drink a toast.”
After hearing the words of Mrs. Calsis, everyone raised their glasses.
Even Pat was extraordinarily cooperative. He looked at Theresa. “About your father, it was my fault before, and I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtapologize.”
“…” Theresa flicked a look at him. God knew during these days she hated this man like poison,
and she had never expected him to apologize so easily now.
She said nothing. On this kind of occasion, she didn’t want to say anything that would ruin others’ high spirits. After
all, Pat, as a father, was defending Rose at that time.
All of them toasted together.
As the head of the family, Robert glimpsed Charlie and asked, “Right, Charlie, what do you plan
to do about Jimmy?”
Robert heard that he was beaten last night and was still upstairs. He was very concerned about it. He was afraid
that Charlie was too naive and impetuous to handle it properly, thus it might lead to trouble.
Charlie said, “Don’t worry, I’ve calmed down now. I told him this morning to divorce Rose and go back home. As
long as his family doesn’t speak ill of Theresa out there anymore, I can let him. get away with this once.”
When Robert heard this, he said, “It’s good that you’ve calmed down.”
Hitting people can be anywhere from minor to significant. The Watsons hadn’t reported it to the police just because
of the consideration of their relationship involving Rose. Things after all could not go too far.
Rose heard Charlie’s words and said, “Uncle Charlie, I don’t want a divorce.”
After Rose’s voice came out, at the dining table people fell silent.
Mrs. Calsis put down her chopsticks, and turned to Rose, “Rose, I agree with your uncle on this issue. I hope you
divorce Jimmy.”
Pat also agreed with Mrs. Calsis. “Me too. You won’t see a good future with him.” He disdained Jimmy Watson.
“Dad,” Rose uttered, “I never had a bad time with him.” speaking of this, she peeked at Theresa, “You can’t put full
blame on Jimmy simply because it did not work out between Aunt Theresa and him! It takes two to tango. Since
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthey had ended up in such an embarrassing situation, Aunt Theresa should also think about whether there’s
something wrong with her.”
“…” Theresa heard what Rose said and looked at her, “so do you think it’s all my fault?” Rose replied, “Is it not? Jim
and I haven’t come here recently – we don’t want any trouble. Yesterday at his father’s birthday party, you went
there yourselves, drove all the guests away, and deliberately embarrassed him. What’s more, aunt, you even
forced his mother to kneel… If I were him, I wouldn’t be able to bear this kind of insult, either. Certainly, as a man,
he really
shouldn’t hit you, but there is no way that you put full blame on him.”
Mrs. Calsis tried to stop her. “Rose.”
But Rose would not listen, “Grandma, you weren’t there, and you don’t know how aggrieved Jim was. I really can’t
stand it – why on earth does Uncle Charlie target him like this? Anyway, this divorce thing is not going to happen. I
am not eight, I make my own decisions about my marriage.”
“…” Theresa did not make a sound.
Jimmy now had Rose on his side. It seemed that she could not be persuaded by anyone.
Charlie looked into Rose’s eyes, “You have made up your mind?”
