Chapter 469
Theresa asked, confused, “Do I have to tell him? I like where we are.”
“You’d better tell him sooner if you want to be with him. Charlie can stand up now. What are you worried
about? You should be honest with each other, right?” Roderick was worried about them.
Theresa bowed her head. “Since Charlie is getting better, I don’t think I should pester him.”
Roderick froze. “Why?”
“He used to be nice to me because he couldn’t stand up and he didn’t have anyone else around. He always
thought he could stand up because of me, but you know I was just lucky.” Theresa felt that any acupuncturist
would have cured Charlie but he credited her and took care of her.
Roderick explained, “Charlie likes you.”
Theresa chuckled. “You’re both from big families! Would you like a woman like me?”
Roderick was mesmerized by her smile. He blinked for a moment and averted his gaze. “I don’t know.”
“Is it true that Charlie has always been picky?”
“Yes,” Roderick said, “he’s had a lot of suitors since he was a kid, but they say he doesn’t like women because
he’s too picky.”
“So why did he choose me?” Theresa muttered, staring at the billboard on the wall.
Roderick didn’t say anything. He wasn’t Charlie and couldn’t say anything on his behalf.
Soon Old Mr. Calsis came out. The two of them stopped talking and took him to another examination room.
