Chapter293
Jimmy has thrown away all the reports from hospital. But the staff there can still stand out as witnesses for me.”
Theresa nodded firmly. “If I really had an affair with anyone, do you think the father of the kids would be so patient
as to keep silent for so many years? And did the Watsons provide any evidence while libeling me? I bet Jimmy would
never have the guts to say I had any tie to other men in front of his family.”
“Why didn’t you speak it out earlier if it’s true?” Rosales was still skeptical about that.
“How was I able to?” replied Theresa. “How could I account for the fact that I gave birth to two kids all by myself? I
have been kind enough that I didn’t bother Jimmy when he is enjoying his cozy new life. It has taken every minute
of mine to look after
you the the kids, and how could I spare any time to talk to you guys? And I don’t think you would buy my words

“Do you think I will buy your words now?” Sure enough, Rosales began to deny. “What a story you’ve invented!”
“Stop!” Johnson suddenly roared so violently that Rosales was hushed at once. He then glared at her, “I agreed with
the proposal of your son back then because I believed he would give my daughter happiness. Who could have
expected your guys were actually maltreating her! Not only is your son disabled, but he is simply a brutal animal!
So are your family, who dared to defame Theresa of having affairs!”
Theresa’s eyes got tearful, as this was the first time she won the trust of her father during all these years. And
Rosales was stunned, witnessing Johnson flying into a fury for the first time when the sense of guilty had kept him
silent for so long. It was natural for Johnson to foam at the mouth now, as he finally knew there was actually
nothing to get himself open to Rosales‘ charges.
Facing such an overwhelming Johnson, Rosales had to concede defeat. “How can you prove her words?” though
Rosales
still asked lightly.
“Then you tell me who the alleged lover is.” retorted Johnson.
Rosales replied, “How am I supposed to know when she conceals it so well?”
“Then just shut up if you’ve got no idea about it. Should I hear any slander about Theresa’s affair from now on,
you’ll be
regretful!” snapped Johnson.
Seeing Johnson in such a filthy temper as he had bought every word Theresa said, Rosales decided to end the
dustup about that matter. She then switched the subject to the very issue of Rose’s kid. “Let’s forget about the
past.” Rosales went on, “But
Theresa had made Rose lose her child!”

Theresa snorted. “I made her lose her child? Or she did it herself? Do you have any proof? She fell down the stairs
herself,
and you are blaming me for her own mistake?”
“Weren’t you with Jimmy when she fell down?” asked Rosales.
“I was present then. But it’s your son who came up to me for a conversation.” rebuked Theresa. “Are you trying to
discipline me when your son wouldn’t listen to you, huh?”
Rosales wouldn’t give in, “How could he come up to you if you didn’t seduce him?”
“I hope you are not too senile to remember it’s he who sent the message to me for an appointment last time.” said
Theresa. Rosales‘ face darkened as she recalled that matter. She then started being unreasonable when she had
run out of reasons. “You are just the murderer whatever you try to argue now, because you are the very reason for
all the mess!” “Father,” Theresa turned to Johnson, “do you think it my fault? Jimmy came to talk to me, his wife
saw that and she got jealous…while I didn’t do anything from start to finish. Mrs. Watson is just so used to bullying
me relentlessly, as she takes it for granted that no one would support me.”
