Chapter 542
Cristina said, “I haven’t seen your new home yet! Why don’t I come to your place for the holiday?” Theresa said, “Sure. You’re not going home?”
Cristina frowned. “What’s there to go back to? I have no place in that family, do I?”
Cristina’s parents got divorced when she was very young.
Her father married her stepmother and had more children. Now, she was like a stranger in the family.
She did
go home for the holiday last year, but she ended up coming back within two days. That home made her
feel out of place. Even her father felt like a stranger to her.
Theresa took a look at Cristina and felt sorry for the girl.
She asked, “By the way, how are you and Eugene doing?”
“Same as usual,” Cristina said. “I have been staying with him these days. I have no choice. He said he would go to Charlie about the kids if I didn’t stay there. He is a mean person, isn’t he? I don’t know what he wants to do. He is nice to me, but I have no feelings for this jerk now. I just feel uncomfortable when I look at him.” Hearing Cristina’s words, Theresa remembered what Jack had said about Eugene when she had dinner with
him.
She turned to Cristina and said, “Actually, Eugene came to see me.”
“What did he want to see you for?”
“He said that he wanted to marry you and asked me to put in a good word for him.”
“Huh?” Cristina glanced at Theresa in disbelief. “You’re lying to me. How is that possible?”
Eugene wanted to marry her?
That was the funniest joke in the world.
“I’m telling the truth. He said that when he first came back. He had been so irresponsible to you before, so I
didn’t tell you. I was afraid he would hurt you.”
Cristina said, “He isn’t a good man.”
When Eugene left, she had been upset for a long time.
