Chapter 163
Before Theresa could say anything, Charlie spoke up and said to Rose, “You can go out now if you don’t want to
eat.”
Rose grunted and pouted. “Uncle Charlie, it’s not that I’m trying to cause trouble. I just don’t think it’s
sensible at all for you to leave Leonard and Ben with this woman.”
“I know what I’m doing. You don’t need to tell me what to do.”
Rose said, “But look at the injury on Jimmy’s head, it’s Leonard who did it! I’m wondering what Aunt Theresa
said to Leonard behind our backs to get him to do something like this. Leonard has always been a good boy. If
she hadn’t egged him on, why would he have done such a thing?”
When Charlie heard that, his face darkened. He looked at Leonard, who was sitting next to Theresa, and asked,
“Leonard, did you do it?”
Leonard took a look at Charlie without saying anything.
Charlie said, “If so, apologize to Jimmy.”
Seeing that Charlie was angry at Leonard instead of Theresa, Jimmy hurriedly spoke up for the boy. “Uncle
Charlie, I’m fine. The kid doesn’t know what he’s doing. It’s not his fault.”
Rose said after him, “Uncle Charlie, what’s the use of blaming the kid? What does he know?”
Charlie said, “A kid should also bear responsibility when he does something wrong. He hit Jimmy. That’s his
problem. What does it have to do with Theresa? He just came back today, so you can’t blame Theresa for what he did. If you want to blame someone, it’s his mother who brought him up and failed to teach him well.” Hearing this, Theresa frowned and looked at Charlie.
He said that she had failed to teach Leonard well?
Although she knew that Charlie was trying to defend her, she still felt that it was a bit too much for him to say.
that.
Rose said, “Cristina has taught the kids well. Look, Ben is very well-behaved.”
“Yes! Ben is well-behaved. Do you think Theresa would teach Leonard bad things instead of both of them?
You’re just taking it out on Theresa by blaming her for something that has nothing to do with her.” Charlie told Rose off in response to what she said and Rose was speechless for a while.
