Chapter 281
“What is bothering him?” Theresa had a headache. It seemed that Charlie needed people to coax him every time.
“Go and check on him,” Jonathan advised her.
Met with his expectant gaze, she gave in and entered the room. Charlie was standing at the window. He was back on his feet again although he couldn’t walk normally yet. Theresa was aware that his legs were fine. He couldn’t walk only because he had been confined to the wheelchair for too long. His myasthenia would lessen with his daily practice.
She looked at him and fell into a trance. In her impression, he had always been in a wheelchair. It seemed to be a part of him. This was the first time she had seen him standing. She almost doubted this was not the same Charlie she knew. He was so
tall that she had to look up. His figure was upright, and his air was kingly.
She broke the silence with a cough. “You want to see me?”
Charlie looked back with a hint of indifference in his deep eyes. He put his hand on the wall to support himself, walked to the
side, and sat down. Only then did she go over and sat down on a sofa in front of him.
“I wonder how I offended you this time, Mr. Calsis.”
“According to Jonathan, Keith wants you to go to his place,” Charlie said.
Theresa remembered that Jonathan walked by when she was talking to Keith downstairs. She couldn’t believe that he was a snitch.
She hummed, “Yeah, he told me to find him when you recover. He’ll find me a job. What’s wrong?”
