Chapter 284
She regretted marrying Jimmy. She was so blind to take a scumbag for her true love. That was the biggest mistake
she had ever made in her life.
“What exactly happened between Jimmy and you?” Johnson asked. Back then, he was too mad to hear her
explanation, “Is there anything I don’t know? What was going on with the kids?”
She married Jimmy, but the children were not his seeds. Facing the fact, Johnson hadn’t thought much about it, but
what
Charlie said yesterday led to his contemplation all night, although he hadn’t come to any conclusion yet..
Theresa felt bitter in her heart and asked, “Do you believe me now?”

“You can tell me about it,” he said.
Theresa glanced at her father and swallowed back the words that came to her tongue. Instead, she said, “Forget it!
Let’s talk about it later. I don’t want to upset you.”
All the grievances she had suffered were already past tense. She didn’t want to bring those things up again. Her
father would
be distressed if he heard her story.
At the entrance of their house, she got off and helped Johnson get out of the car. “Be careful, dad.”
Johnson had spent most of his time recuperating from his illness. He was in bad shape. It distressed her to see him
bustle
around for her sake. She helped her father get into the house. Leah and Sarah were both at home.
Leah’s face stiffened when they were seen coming in together. In her mind, a married daughter should not often
come back to her parental home. Since Theresa divorced Jimmy, she hadn’t been back again. The situation
changed, and Leah was not happy to see her.
Leah didn’t dare to show her disgust in the presence of Johnson Instead, she forced a smile. “Tess, you’re back.”
Theresa glanced at the woman and responded indifferently, “Yeah, am I not welcome here?”
Her sarcasm rattled Leah. “It’s not what I mean. I was just being nice.”
She glanced at Johnson and put on such an aggrieved look as if Theresa had bullied her. In the past, he would talk
in her favor and remind Theresa to be polite to a senior. Today, he said nothing.
After sitting down, he announced, “From today onward, Theresa will live in this house.”

“What?” Leah froze and then asked, “She won’t go back to the Calsis family anymore?”
Johnson said, “It’s not a real marriage. The person Charlie really wants is Sarah. Now that she came back, Theresa
no longer has to go back there.”
“Honey,” Leah got anxious, “is this a joke? Theresa has married Charlie and naturally should stay with him.
Marriage is no joke. They have gotten their marriage license. Aren’t you afraid that he would be mad?”
Turned out he had gone out early in the morning to pick up Theresa. Johnson was annoyed by her hesitant look. “So
what? I don’t care.”
Despite her agitation, Leah forced a smile and did her best to sound gentle. “We can’t afford to offend the Calsis
family. We don’t want to upset Charlie, especially when our company is in a crisis.”
Johnson was in the entity industry. E-commerce was prevalent nowadays, and his business was out of date. The
competition from the Calsis family only made his company decline faster.
