Chapter 058 She fled home
Without seeing them in person, Leah always felt uneasy. When she saw that Theresa and Charlie were on good terms one
day, she would call Sarah back.
Theresa said, “Okay, I’ll talk to him.” She hung up the phone, pressed the button to summon the elevator, and went
inside, which had very few people in it at this time.
She went home, opened the door, and saw two kids painting, and Cristina, who was a gamer on weekends, was playing a

Theresa answered, “Came back when I want to.”
Leonard and Ben saw her and ran over, and Ben hugged her, “Mom, kisses.”
Theresa squatted down and let Ben’s sweet kiss fall on her cheek. Leonard stood by with a serious look on his face, “I
want a kiss too.”
Cristina held her phone and looked at the two, “I’m jealous!” As a single woman, every time she looked at Theresa and
her two kids, she wanted to find a man and have a baby.
Theresa glanced at her, “Play your game.”
Cristina twisted her mouth. “I have enough. All my teammates are idiots.” She put her phone down and sat next to
Theresa, “Didn’t I ask you to stay there? You’re not staying with your husband?”
“I’m coming back to see Leonard and Ben.”
“I’ll take care of the two little ones. You’re not sure about me?”
Theresa looked at her and said, “There’s no need for that.”
“I think there is.” said Cristina, Don’t you want something to happen between you and Charlie?”
“Didn’t I tell you I was just working with him?” Theresa reached out, poking her head, “What are you thinking.”
“I know, that’s why I told you to take your chances! You don’t even know how good Charlie is to you! He watched us
talking and thought I was bullying you, called me up, and warned me not to bully his wife.”
“Erm…” Cristina’s words took Theresa a bit by surprise, not convinced that Charlie had mistakenCristina for a bad
woman for her sake. “Really?”
“Really! How could I lie to you? I asked him what was so great about you, and he said that I’m not even a finger of yours.
He appreciates you, and that’s enough! Tess, I think he looks like a very good man!”
Theresa’s gaze, unconsciously, fell on the ring Charlie had given her, and she remembered his words, “A gift, for you.” He thought she had been bullied, so he had given her a gift to make her happy. Otherwise, why had he suddenly given her
a ring? ‘No, this’s not possible! Charlie is so self-righteous, how can he be so nice to her?’ The idea had just popped up
and was snuffed out by Theresa immediately. But Cristina’s words made her a little suspicious.
Cristina also saw the ring on Theresa’s hand, and she came over with a look of surprise on her face, “Gosh! A ring?
Where did it come from? It’s from Charlie, isn’t it? I haven’t seen it at dinner.”
“He sent me after you left.” Theresa glanced at it.
