“I will, Madam.”
“Where on earth is Theresa?! She won’t even visit her father in the hospital! How hardhearted she is!” Leah had
been secretly observing Johnson’s expressions from the corner of her eye as she said this. She deliberately tried to
remind Johnson that it was her and Sarah who took care of him when he’s sick, rather than Theresa.
A heavily disguised Theresa just showed up in the hospital the next moment Leah left. She wrapped herself from
bottom to top in thick coat, scarf and hat. It was such a perfect disguise that not even her father could recognize
her!
“Mistress.” Robert caught her coming toward the ward.
“I wanna have a chat with father,” said Theresa. With a nod, Robert walked out and guarded at the door.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClosing the door, Theresa sat beside the bed. “Dad.”
A hint of worry flashed through Johnson’s eyes. “You ought not to have come. It’s better for you to stay indoors
lately.”
“That’s okay, dad. I’ve been wary enough on the way here. Do you feel better now?”
“Don’t worry. Not a big deal.”
Not reassured, Theresa gave her father a brief examination. “Dad, how about you moving in with me? A quiet
environment will be much more conducive to your recovery.” Massive corporate affairs and constant visitors were a
hindrance to his rest even in the hospital.
Johnson hesitated, “But the company…
“You have Robert to help you. Jimmy Watson is there as well.”
“Jimmy? Is he reliable?” Johnson held a doubtful attitude toward Jimmy’s character and ability, and that’s why he
insisted sticking to his post even in poor health. He never really trusted Jimmy before Jimmy broke up with
Theresa, let alone now.
“Take it easy, dad. We have someone powerful watching him for us. I bet he dares not cross the line.” After all, Mr.
White wouldn’t let Jimmy get away with it if Jimmy really damaged the interests of the company. Therefore, now the
priority for Theresa was the health of her father.
Theresa read an expression of consent on her father’s face, but then she heard him say, “Charlie Calsis has been
inquiring about you. Do you wanna have a talk with him…about the children?”
“I’ve told Cristina. She’ll have a talk with Charlie.” Cristina was deliberately trying to annoy Charlie as she was mad
at Charlie for what he did to Theresa. Though as a result Charlie had got it all wrong and treated Theresa as a
malicious woman, Theresa found all these acceptable. Charlie’s hatred would help end their complicated
relationship which started from that absurd night.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJohnson reminded her. “You have no idea how worried Charlie was when he thought the kids were kidnapped by
you.”
Actually Theresa knew it, and that’s why she never thought Charlie would give up the custody of kids. Moreover,
the whole Calsis family wouldn’t allow it to happen. “I know, dad. But he won’t trust any of my explanation that kids
are safe with me.”
“Just don’t impose so much worries on him.”
“I got it, dad. I’ll let Cristina to have a clear talk with him. Have a good rest tonight, and I’ll pick you up tomorrow.”
Johnson gave her an approving nod. A feeling of expectation rose from the bottom of his heart. They had missed
countless precious moments due to misunderstandings. Aged and sick, Johnson only wished to cherish the rest
years he could spend with his daughter.
Theresa wore her hat again and waved goodbye to Robert, ready to leave. What she didn’t expect that was that
she would meet Charlie in the hospital…
