Chapter 193
Theresa stood up, got him out of the room, and took the elevator to go down. Everyone was seated in the
dining room. Theresa sat down next to Charlie. Cristina glanced at the man and quickly looked away.
Charlie saw Cristina and asked, “Why is she still here?”
Leticia looked over and asked, “What’s wrong? Cristina came to see Leonard and Ben, and I kept her here for
lunch.”
Charlie had a problem with that. He said seriously, “I don’t want to see her in this house ever again.”
“Charlie,” Leticia reasoned. “That’s too harsh. Leonard and Ben are both here.”
Charlie glanced at the two kids. Ben was looking at him with innocent eyes. For his sake, Charlie fought back
the urge to drive Cristina away. He did it for Ben. Rose was relieved that he didn’t insist. Cristina was the best
candidate to replace Theresa. She didn’t want to see Cristina gone like that.
Just then, another person came in and said, “Sorry, I’m late.”
The incomer was none other than Jimmy. Rose told him Cristina would be here today and invited him over. As
soon as the man showed up, Theresa’s face fell. Jimmy had been busy with the carnival activities and rarely
came back, but his presence never failed to upset Theresa.
