How could Charlie not have understood what Johnson was saying between the lines?
Jonathan always felt Charlie was a burden and did not want him to be with Theresa. What, did this father-in-law of
his change his mind now?
Charlie admitted he was being a bit petty to think that, but after all that had happened, he did not have a good
impression on the entire Cameron Family except for Theresa.
Johnson did not reply. Charlie was not the patient type, he said, “She’s fine, taking care of yourself and not causing
her trouble is the best thing you can do, bye.”
Charlie was about to hang up when Johnson said, “Wait.”
What else?” Charlie was getting impatient. He was already not in a good mood, this call from Johnson made it
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtworse. Charlie was quite well-mannered towards Johnson during the birthday party today, but of course, that was
only in public. His attitude towards Johnson was still the same.
Johnson said, “We’d like to take a look at Theresa tomorrow, is that okay?”
“Whatever.” Charlie sent Johnson home earlier today because the situation was chaotic and he did not want to
worry Theresa further if something happened to Johnson. He had no reason to not, let Johnson see Theresa now.
“Thanks,” Johnson said and hung up. Putting down his phone, Johnson’s brows were tightly squeezed together. He
was indeed very worried. Since the last time he talked to Theresa, he roughly figured Theresa had feelings for
Charlie. His daughter fell for this man.
However, Charlie was in a wheelchair back then. Johnson did not think Charlie would leave Theresa. Theresa was
once divorced, and Charlie was handicapped, so it was kinda even. When he saw Charlie stand up today, he
suddenly got worried.
‘Would he abandon Theresa?’
Johnson felt it seemed like a possibility hearing Charlie’s tone earlier. He did not care much about the Calsis.
Family’s power, only. not many people treated Theresa so kindly nowadays. Not to mention how much that jerk
Jimmy had hurt Theresa. He could not bare watching his daughter get hurt again.
Theresa finished her bath, walked out and said to Charlie, “I’m done, your turn.
Charlie sat on the bed, looked at her and said, “Your dad just called.”
“Oh? What did he say? Is he worried about me?” Theresa asked.
Of course, a father would worry about her daughter after something like this happened. Theresa sighed. Her
feelings were mixed. Although she would love for everyone to see what kind of person that jerk Jimmy was, he did
not want her father to see it.
“I’m really a useless daughter for letting my father worry so much,” She said.

Charlie said to her, “He’d probably come to see you tomorrow.” Theresa nodded and laid down in bed.
Charlie finished taking a bath and returned. Theresa was laying in bed with her eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
Charlie laid down and said, “Asleep?”
She opened her eyes, looked at her, reached out and hugged hira.
TO!
Her sudden change in attitude made Charlie smile. He kissed her cheeks and asked with disbelief, “What’s gotten
into you today? Why are you suddenly so nice?” Theresa did not speak. Her throat was burning and she did not
want to say a single word.
Charlie hugged her. The two of them slept.
