Chapter 358
However, Charlie was willing to put up with Theresa’s father for her sake and decided not to haggle over how her
father defamed him.
Theresa said, “How can I trust you?” She didn’t believe him at all now. Even if he had promised, what about the
others?
Charlie said, “If you don’t trust me, how can you know whether I can do that?”
Theresa was speechless.
“Well, I’m going downstairs.” He tapped on the back of her hand and went out in his wheelchair. Theresa left him
alone and went about her business.
Before long, Ben came back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe then went downstairs to welcome Ben and was a little surprised to see Pat, Charlie, and a young man sitting in
the living room, who was very good–looking, wearing a black sweater with his jacket laid on one side. She hadn’t
seen him for quite a long time, having not expected to see him here.
When the man saw her, he was also a little stunned, seeming to recognize her as well.
Without a word, Theresa glanced at Charlie and went straight out to welcome Ben. When she went out, she saw
Ben, who was carrying his small schoolbag and wearing a beret with a lollipop in his mouth, standing at the door,
and Cristina standing right next to him. She walked up to Cristina and said, “I thought you said you were not
coming.”
Cristina said, “Is Eugene in there?”
Theresa looked at her nervous look, “Yes! I didn’t expect him to know Charlie.”
Cristina said, “Me, neither.” She had followed Eugene here, having not expected to arrive at
Calsis’s Residence.
“Aren’t you going in?” Theresa looked at her and said, “What are you doing here? It’s cold
outside.”
Cristina said, “I’m a little hot so I’d like to stay here.”
Theresa couldn’t help but laugh softly, “It’s just an ex–boyfriend, why are you being such a wimp? Come on.” After
finishing her words, she grabbed Cristina and pulled her in.
Cristina followed behind Theresa, feeling so nervous that she almost couldn’t walk. ‘Shit!‘ What she had thought
before was that if she had seen that scumbag again, she would definitely have slapped him across the face, not
having expected herself to suddenly turn into a wimp.
When they reached the door to the living room, Theresa let go of Cristina and led her and Ben
through the door.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEugene was stunned to see Cristina enter, following behind Theresa.
“Daddy.” Ben walked over to Charlie as soon as he saw him.
“Daddy?” Eugene looked at the little one who looked exactly like Charlie and said to Charlie, “Since when has Mr.
Calsis had a child?”
“A few days ago.”
Eugene said, “That quick?” He didn’t seem to have been away for such a long time as Charlie’s
child had been at this age.
Ben took out some candies from his pocket and handed them to Charlie as well as Pat and
Eugene beside him in a quite polite manner.
Seeing the little one, Pat reached out and took the candies. He hated Theresa but did not hate Charlie’s two
children. After all, they were not Theresa’s children.
Eugene had said this to Charlie just to defuse the embarrassment of seeing his ex–girlfriend. As a result, just as
Eugene finished his words, Cristina came over and sat down on the couch, “I’m his mother.”
Speechless, Eugene raised his head in disbelief and glanced at Cristina to make sure it was
Cristina speaking.
