Theresa helped Johnson check his body before coming out of the room.

When she got downstairs, she found Brenda still there, having made dinner. Usually, if she didn’t cook, there was
hardly anything for everyone to eat.
This made Theresa feel uncomfortable, so, she turned to Brenda and asked, “Brenda, you haven’t gone back yet?”
Charlie said, “I told Brenda to stay to take care of you later.”
Theresa looked up and gave him a look, “I don’t understand what mean.”

“I know you don’t really want to see me, so, I let Brenda take care of you. You usually work too hard alone!”
Speaking of this, he took her hand and said, “Look, what has your hands become?“
There was still a small cut on her hand from yesterday’s cooking.
Seeing him looking at her hand, Theresa pulled her hand back, “Hypocritical.”

He gave her a lot of things when they divorced.
But she had never used anything he gave her.
Theresa said, “I don’t need them. I’ll give you back all your stuff after the lawsuit later and I can raise the two
kids by myself.”
Charlie looked over at her, “I’m not going to file a lawsuit against you!”
“What do you mean?” Theresa looked at Charlie and said unexpectedly, “You mean you’re willing to let Leonard
and Ben live with me in the future!”
“They like you so much, and they definitely don’t want to live with me. It’s not good for them if I file a lawsuit
against you.”
Before, he didn’t understand why his mother didn’t agree to let him file a lawsuit.
But he understood it now!
Although Theresa felt that she had a great chance of winning the lawsuit, it was still risky to do so.
At this moment, when she heard that Charlie was not going to file a lawsuit, she was naturally relieved and said,
“That’s good! It seems you still have some humanity.”
Charlie looked at her and laughed, “Is that a compliment?”
How did that become a compliment to him?
Charlie said to Theresa, “Actually if you had told me about the kids earlier, we wouldn’t have had so many
misunderstandings. Do you think I’m the kind of person who won’t give you the kids if you want them?”
Theresa listened to Charlie’s words and said, “What do you think? You’ve come here to take the kids several
times!”
“When I didn’t know the kids were yours, I kept them with you all the time. I wanted to take the kids just because
I was afraid Dick would hurt them.”
Speaking of this, Charlie was a little depressed.
If the kids weren’t Dick’s, why did she have to mess with Dick?
Brenda walked out and said, “It’s time for dinner!”
The table was already full of food.
Theresa went upstairs to call Leonard and Ben to come down.

She felt speechless, “What are you doing following me?”
“I just want to look at you.”
“…” Was he crazy?
She looked at him strangely, “Are you out of your mind?”
Theresa looked back and saw Charlie looking at her with a smile on his face.
Was he even a little happy?
Why was he so happy?
Charlie said, “When I think that your two kids out there are not Eugene’s, not Roderick’s, and not Dick’s, but
mine, I’m happy!”
“…” Theresa didn’t know what to say as she listened to his words.
Since Charlie knew that Leonard and Ben were her children, his attitude had changed so much that Theresa felt
very strange.
