Chapter 165
She looked at Theresa, knowing that Charlie was being so difficult for Leonard just to defend Theresa, which
actually made Mrs. Calsis very unhappy,
But now, in front of Leonard, she didn’t want to say anything.
She said to Leonard, “Leonard, let’s go back to dinner.”
“No,” Leonard said firmly.
Since Charlie wouldn’t let him eat, he wouldn’t eat.
Looking at Leonard, Mrs. Calsis helplessly said, “Whom are you like with this character?”
Not long after, Ben also ran out. Seeing Leonard and Theresa here, he gave the bun in his hand to Leonard,
“This is for you.”
Leonard looked at him and said, “No.”
Looking at this scene, Mrs. Calsis went into the house and went to count Charlie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAccording to Leonard’s character, he wouldn’t eat until Charlie asked him to!
Theresa looked at the children and said, “Leonard, you go back with me to get my things, and we’ll stop by to
see Cristina,”
Leonard heard Theresa’s words and nodded his head, “Hmm.”
Theresa said, “Then wait for me for a moment and I’ll get some things.”
Her things including her bag were upstairs.
After saying that, Theresa walked into the house and went upstairs.
She went into Charlie’s room and got her bag, which contained the key to the house. As she was about to go
out, she saw Charlie coming to her.
He was sitting in his wheelchair and looked over at Theresa, “Are you mad at me?”
Theresa gave him a look and said, “No, I will take the kids back to get my things.”
She was about to go out, but Charlie did not give way to her, directly catching her wrist, “Theresa, do you think
I did wrong?”
Theresa felt sorry for the child and was very angry with Charlie, so she spoke cynically, “No, how can you be
wrong? You are right in everything you do.”
“What are you doing being so cynical?” Charlie looked at her exasperated look and said, “Are you stupid? Can’t
you hear that I’m defending you? After Leonard and Ben came back, I let you take them, and the others were
not too happy, thinking you would bring the kids down. When Leonard smashed Jimmy, they took the blame
on you and I just didn’t want you to take the blame for that, so I let Leonard take the responsibility himself.
It’s reasonable for others to be angry, but it’s unreasonable for you to be angry.”
“I…” Listening to his words and looking at his innocent face, Theresa didn’t know what to say.
Between her and his son, he chose to help her.
She said, “But you shouldn’t blame Leonard like that. Do you know why he smashed Jimmy? He didn’t like
Jimmy, and you forced him to apologize to him. You are his father, but you lecture him indiscriminately when
he met you for the first time. Do you know how upset he is?”
Charlie said, “The children will not grow up without teaching. I just teach Leonard to let him take

not even eat. He used to follow Cristina and she did not teach him this, so I should teach him. He is my son, but
why are you angrier than me?”
“…” Theresa looked at Charlie with a depressed look on her face and coughed, realizing that she had indeed
reacted too strongly.
She had almost forgotten the most important thing today because of her anger.
She said to Charlie, “It’s possible that he didn’t apologize because Jimmy is too annoying. If I was asked to
apologize to someone I didn’t like, I wouldn’t apologize either.”
“…” Charlie looked at Theresa and said, “If you defend him so much, it’s you who will suffer in the future.
When he gets into trouble afterward, you will have to take the blame for him, you know?”
Theresa pursed her lips, “That is also what I am willing to do. I am not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?”
Hearing her words, Charlie almost vomited blood instantly in anger from her, “Yes, it’s me being nosy and I’ll
never mind you again!”
He rubbed his brow, not realizing his anxiety for her was meddlesome.
He grunted coldly, let go of her hand, and stopped talking, “Hurry up and go. I don’t want to see you.”
