Chapter 744 Charlie’s Persuasion
He had seen Cristina upset by Eugene’s aggressive mother. Despite Theresa and Brenda comforting her throughout the meal, Cristina still seemed angry.
Eugene asked, “May I check on her?”
Charlie hesitated, lost in thought. He was in a nasty mood today because Theresa didn’t buy his words. However, Eugene’s gaze reminded him of himself. He didn’t want Eugene to end up like him, so he nodded in permission, saying, “Come in.”
Theresa and Cristina had already returned to the room. Cristina was sitting on the couch while Theresa was helping her wipe her hands. “Don’t overthink,” she reassured. “After all, there are so many men in this world, and Eugene isn’t the only one.”
“But I just can’t forget him,” Cristina confessed, her eyes turning sad. “Whenever I close my eyes, I think of how his mother mistreated him.”
Theresa reached out to gently touch Cristina’s head, commenting. “You are trapped in love, my poor girl.”
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
“Who’s there?” Theresa inquired.
Charlie opened the door and showed his face.
Surprised to see him come back, Theresa stood up and walked to the door. “Didn’t you leave?” she asked with confusion.
