Chapter 259
Theresa consoled Mrs. Calsis, “Don’t waste your emotion on such an unabashed person.”
Hearing their well-echoed conversation, Sarah burst into laughter. She sneered at Theresa, “You’ve got a lot to
boast of now, huh? But don’t forget the fact that it’s only because I didn’t want to marry Charlie that a woman like
you was provided with the chance to be his wife.” Sarah even teased Theresa about placing so much weight on a
man who couldn’t walk. Sarah went on, “But I still hear that you and Charlie are going to divorce, even when you
are trying so hard to ingratiate yourself with his family.” She heard that from Rose, who told her that her
reappearance would be a cue for the couple to separate. Sarah thus really didn’t think Theresa’s pride would last
long. She also believed Theresa must value Charlie so much that she even had to cater to Mrs. Calsis, since such an
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtuncompetitive woman could never find any better man. Hearing the humiliation Sarah flung to Theresa, Mrs. Calsis
rose to protest for Theresa, “That’s only a rumor, Sarah. I won’t allow Charlie to divorce Theresa, especially for a
woman like you.” Mrs. Calsis had made up her mind that she would never make a concession to Charlie on that
score.
“I hope so.” Sarah said. “But I’ll be off now.” She then sighed, regarding Theresa with resignation. What a proud girl
Theresa used to be, Sarah thought, and Theresa should have reduced to a wife of a disabled man. What a pity and
what a piece of good news to Sarah it was! The more miserable Theresa’s life was getting, the more content Sarah
was feeling. Such a sick mentality of Sarah had been formed when she grew up being compared with Theresa each
time she failed the examination.
When Sarah had left, Mrs. Calsis reassured Theresa, “No worries, I’ll let Charlie know that I would never agree with
his
decision of divorce.”
Theresa only twitched her mouth somehow, feeling how amusing it was that Mrs. Calsis could switch to her side as
soon as Sarah appeared, when Mrs. Calsis had still been criticizing Theresa the other day.
Theresa nodded, “I’m sorry for the trouble Sarah has caused. If my father had insisted on his objection, she
wouldn’t have been Charlie’s fiancee.” And the Cameron family wouldn’t have been on the edge of bankruptcy
amongst the mess if her father had rejected the plea of Leah and Sarah.
“It’s all right. What’s done is done.” said Mrs. Calsis. “I only hope Charlie and you will be a happy couple from now
on.”
Theresa only remained silent. How could a couple be happy when there was no love between them? She sighed in
her heart.
As Nandlall’s Group had arranged the seats for them, Theresa and Mrs. Calsis headed for the concert after some
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrest. Their seats were at the front, along with those of Jimmy, Rose and Sarah. Rose had asked for a special position
for Sarah, which was amongst the stars who attended the concert too. It was just next to Sarah’s favorite idol
Jefferson. And Sarah was now taking a selfie with Jefferson jubilantly, even in the presence of Mrs. Calsis.
Mrs. Calsis got herself seated while casting a grim look at Sarah. Theresa stayed with her, though there were the

boys on her mind. She had got her phone geared up to record their performance as Cristina had required.
Charlie’s seat was in the private box on the second floor, where he could get the whole view of the stage. As Roger,
who sat
alongside, was talking to him, Charlie was only attracted by Theresa, who was just beside his mother.
