chapter 241
She sat beside Theresa silently for a while before looking at her and saying, “Go take a shower. Your hair is wet.”
She picked up her towel and handed it to Theresa, motioning for her to wipe her hair.
Theresa looked at her, took the towel over, wiped her hair, and went to the bathroom.
Sitting on the sofa, Cristina listened to her taking a bath. The more she thought about the matter, the more speechless she felt. She had thought it wouldn’t matter even if Sarah came back. After all, Charlie treated Theresa very well. But she had not expected them to get divorced.
Now, the children had been sent back to the Calsis family, but they were going to divorce. Cristina frowned, remembering that she had been fixing Charlie and Theresa up back then. It was also her that had let the two kids do a paternity test and sent them back to the Calsis family! Thinking of this, she felt so ashamed, thinking she had made a huge mistake!
When Theresa came out of the bathroom while wiping her hair with a towel, Cristina sat on the edge of the bed, looked at her, and said, “Don’t be too sad. I’ll go to scold Charlie tomorrow. He is a jerk. I will teach him a good lesson. That bastard should not have made you so sad.”
Hearing her words, Theresa was startled and then said, “Don’t go!”
She was afraid that Cristina would really go!
“Why can’t I go?” Cristina snapped, “You treat him so well and try to cure him. And you have two children. He should not have treated you like this. It is unconscionable! Even if he is Charlie, he should not have acted so willfully.”
Theresa sighed, “Cristina, I’m so tired that I want to sleep now.”
Hearing this, Cristina was not angry anymore but quickly lifted the quilt, saying, “Okay, hurry up and go to bed.” Theresa lay down although her hair was still wet because she was too lazy to dry it and just wanted to sleep.
But when she closed her eyes, she thought of Charlie again. The things he had done for her suddenly popped into her mind. And she even remembered how beautiful the flowers he had sent to her in the afternoon were. But now, it has nothing to do with her anymore.
Theresa didn’t sleep well. In the morning, she heard Cristina say, “Theresa, I’m going to work now. You get some more sleep. Remember to grab something to eat when you get up. I’ll help you figure out a solution when I come back.”
Theresa replied, “Go ahead.”
