Chapter 042 I Can Lump It
Roderick smiled, “I’m glad you are okay, I worried so much about you! Your legs appear promising to recover.”
Charlie said, “I hope so.”
Anyway, everything was going well.
Roderick yawned. “I’ll go to bed then.”
He walked out of the ward after finishing his words.
Seeing that Roderick left and Charlie was fine, Theresa said to Charlie, “Then I’m going back, too.”
She was glad he was okay!
She just came to check on him.
Seeing that she was leaving, Charlie said, “Wait.”
Theresa heard him and glanced at him over her shoulder.
Charlie said, “I decide to give you a reward for spending time with me so late.”
“Huh?” A reward?
Hearing the reward, Theresa got excited. The boss was generous indeed, was he going to give her money?

It was so considerate of him to give her money when she was on a tight budget.
She was expectant until she heard Charlie say, “So today, I’ll just permit you to stay with me for company.”
Theresa was dumbstruck for a moment, and then she looked at Charlie incredulously. Oh, man, you call this a reward? Surely she was not willing to do it!
Why would she stay with him since he was all right? Besides, wasn’t Jonathan here?
But Theresa was too timid to make it too obvious.
She made an excuse, “I want to go back. I left two babies at home, I’m worried about them.”
“They are just sleeping at night, What makes you so worried?” Charlie looked at this awkward woman. Did she decline the
permission to stay with him for the company?
She made it look like he was making her stay!

“Then what are you doing in the hospital?” Charlie looked at her.
Theresa was speechless. Is it wrong to check on you?
She said, “Just hearing that you are in hospital, I felt worried, so I’m here to check on you.”
“That’s it,” Charlie said, “I need company now, and I want you to stay.”

She wanted him to make her stay, didn’t she?
He could permit that!
After hearing Charlie’s words, she twitched her mouth and looked at this man for a while, not knowing what to say. Charlie saw her sitting aside and said, “Come here.”
Theresa had no choice but to go there.
Charlie said, “Water.”
Theresa poured him water.
She sat down beside him and looked at the man on the bed in the quiet ward. Theresa asked, “Do your legs still hurt?”
“Yeah.”
Looking at him, Theresa knew he wasn’t feeling well, so she took pity on him and stayed.
Charlie finished his water and saw Theresa staring at him as if she was worried.
He never knew this woman cared so much about him.
He consoled her, “Don’t worry, this pain is nothing and better compared to waking up in the hospital knowing I couldn’t
stand up anymore at that time.”
That was a blow to the heart!
As a normal person, to know that he was disabled and couldn’t stand up any more was the most devastating thing. And now, everything was reversed.
Theresa said, “You’re going to be all right ”

After hearing Theresa’s words, Charlie took a glance at her Theresa had left the house in a hurry, with her hair untied.
and hanging loosely down, which was not in her discreet manner as usual.
He looked at her and said, “Come here.”
After hearing his words, Theresa paused for a second. Where?
Charlie patted the edge of the bed.
She stood up, sat down on the edge of the bed, and asked, “What?”
Charlie reached over and smoothed her disheveled hair.
Theresa was stunned for a moment by his subtle gesture.
Maybe she had been single for so long that she thought Charlie was a little handsome at that moment……
A sucker for men!
She gave herself a harsh disdain and heard Charlie ask, “Didn’t you look in the mirror before you went out, with your hair
like this?”
Theresa was awkward, “I was woken up in the middle of the night, it’s conscientious enough for me to get here! Who
cares about hair?”
After hearing her words, Charlie asked solemnly, “You love me that much?”
So much that she didn’t care about her appearance?
Theresa,
Why did he think that she loved him?
She said, “Charlie, what are you thinking? I’m just worried about you!”
“Why are you worried about me if you don’t love me? You duplicitous woman!”
Theresa said, “I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”
She sat back in her chair at some distance from him. She remembered clearly that she had signed an agreement with this
man, so she would never do anything beyond it.
Theresa sat aside, killing time on her phone.
Charlie took the medicine and fell asleep after a while.
Jonathan walked in, saw Charlie lying flat on the bed, and asked, “Is Master Calsis asleep?”
‘He just fell asleep,” Theresa looked at Jonathan and said, “You didn’t get any sleep at all, did you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No.”
“Then you go get some sleep. I’ll stay here.” At least Theresa had got some sleep, unlike Jonathan, who had run all day
and seemed to get no sleep at all.
Jonathan said, “It doesn’t seem appropriate.”
“That’s okay. I’ll help you keep an eye on him until you come back after getting some sleep.” Theresa wasn’t sleeping
anyway.
Jonathan gave Theresa a grateful look and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Calsis.”
He went out after his words. As he closed the door, he glanced at Theresa sitting beside his bed and imagined the scene of
her looking affectionately at Charlie. Oh, what a spoony woman!
Theresa sat beside Charlie’s bed for company, reading a book she hadn’t got the chance to read in the last two days. She liked reading books in her daily life. She wasted a lot of time during the two years when she was an expectant mother, so
now she studied hard in her spare time.
She always thought that people needed to constantly improve themselves.
In the morning, Theresa was still in the hospital. Jonathan brought breakfast, saw Theresa here, and said, “Mrs. Calsis.”
Theresa said, “There you are! I’m ready to go back.”
It was a good thing that Jonathan came early.
She had to get back and take her two kids to school.
Jonathan said, “All right, go back and have a rest. Thanks a lot for your help.”
It was only six o’clock. Jonathan was kind of early!
Theresa said, “It was nothing.”
Jonathan said, “I prepared breakfast for you. I didn’t know what you want, so I bought some of each. Take it with you.”
Theresa swept a glance and took it with great gratitude.
When she arrived home, she just saw the two babies get up.
Theresa put the food on the table and said, “Leonard, Ben, breakfast is ready.”
Leonard walked over and stood at the table, barely as tall as the table. Theresa picked him up and put him on his seat, and
Ben, too.
She took out the breakfast and divided it among them.
“Mommy, why is there so much food?”
