Chapter 031 How Come Theresa Know Roderick Hill
Charlie Said, “Do you think I should give her this chance?”
Theresa raised the corner of her lips and said, “Mr. Calsis, this is your business and I’ve no intention to get involved. I
promised not to interfere with your affairs.”
Calsis replied, “Good, you know your place.”
He thought: it’s good that she doesn’t forget their agreement!
Great!
Because the last thing he wanted was to put up with an idiot from day to day.
Theresa said, “But she told me that you canceled her ambassador title because she’s seeing someone, right?”
Charlie replied, “That’s one of the reasons.”
Theresa said, “I see.”
Theresa ate a piece of beef without speaking a word.
Seeing her have no intention to keep asking, Charlie said, “Why don’t you ask about the other reasons?”
She replied, “Not interested, and you just said I know my place. I’ll keep it that way.”
She really knew the art of words!
Charlie didn’t expect her to talk him back with the words he said himself.
With a humph, he said, “Because she talked bad things about you in front of me.”
Theresa was drinking soup, and upon hearing that she almost choked herself.
She picked up the napkin and used it to wipe her mouth. After that, she looked at Charlie and said, “Does it have anything
to do with you if she did that?”
Charlie didn’t know what to say.
Exactly, what did it have to do with him if someone talked bad things about her?
He stood up for her and he told this to her now?
At this moment, Charlie really wanted to choke himself.
He thought: I shouldn’t have defended this ungrateful bitch!
With a grim look on his face, he just made up an excuse at random and said, “Those who talk bad things about others.
behind their backs are people I hate most. They’ve got a bad personality. I just have a problem with her, alright?” Theresa said,
“You’re the boss. General Manager Calsis, Mr. Calsis and Master Calsis, anything you do is right.” Only the strong had a say in
this world.
Any word coming from the mouth of people like Charlie, even just a trifle matter, will be deemed as an order that couldn’t
be defied.
While words from nobody carried little weight.
Charlie didn’t feel happy about the flattery, so he said, “I sense sarcasm in your tone.”
Theresa said, “Absolutely not. I’ll never be sarcastic to someone who pays me! You’re the almighty god in my eyes.” Charlie had
no mood to talk to more upon hearing that.
At this moment, someone approached and said, “Master Calsis.”
Theresa raised her head and looked at the person walking into the room.
The place they were at was a small bedroom with windows and nice decoration.
The
guy who walked in wore a white shirt and black suit pants. His face looked gentle and kind.
Charlie raised his head and took a look at him, then he said, “Why are you here?”
Jonathan said, “Mr. Roderick.”
Roderick smiled and said, “My sister told me that Master Calsis is having dinner right now with a girl, so I come here to
take a look.”
His elder sister was the owner of this restaurant.
Roderick rested his arms at will on the back of the chair where Charlie was sitting, and then his eyesight fell on Theresa. When
he saw Theresa, a slight astonishment swept across his good-looking face.
Seeing him look at herself, she greeted first, “Hi, Doctor Roderick.”
Roderick was even more sure that this girl was Theresa after she greeted him, and he said, “It’s really you, I thought I
mistook you for another girl.”
He didn’t expect her to be with Charlie just after a few days.
Theresa asked, “Are you not on duty today?”
Roderick replied, “I’m here to have some food, I come over here because I was told Charlie is here as well. How come
you’re here with Charlie?”
Just now his sister said Charlie took a woman with her and it seemed that he wouldn’t be single no more. But now it looks
like his sister was totally wrong.
Roderick thought: Theresa and Charlie together? Not that possible.
Theresa said, “We’ve got something to talk about, so here we are.”
Charlie was sitting next to them, and he didn’t expect Theresa and Roderick knew each other.
And they seemed to be familiar to each other.
Charlie thought: doesn’t Theresa want to marry him at all? How come she’s putting on such a nice smile to Roderick?
On top of that, is the fact he’s her husband that embarrassing to tell?
He couldn’t believe she just said “we’ve got something to talk about.”
Charlie said to Roderick, “I’m her husband, what’s wrong with us having lunch together?”
Roderick was stunned.
Just now he thought it wasn’t possible for them to be together, but.......
Charlie and Theresa were married?
He said in a surprise tone, “Are you kidding?”
Charlie said, “I don’t see why I should do that.”
Roderick replied, “You two, married. How come?
With an unfriendly humph, he said, “Do you know my wife well?”
Roderick said, “Theresa was my junior back in college and we met a couple of times. She asked a favor from me days.
ago.”
Charlie took a look at Theresa and asked, “A favor? What kind of favor?”
Seeing Charlie start to ask this, she explained in a hurry, “Nothing, it’s nothing. It doesn’t concern you.”
Upon saying that, she gave Roderick a signal with her eyes, which suggested that she wanted Roderick to keep this a
secret for her.
Roderick got her point, and smiled, then he said, “It’s about something in the hospital, and it truly doesn’t concern you. I didn’t
expect you two to really get married! I’m surprised. So when was it?”
Charlie said, “Just recently, I’ll let you know the date of the wedding.”
Roderick nodded and said, “Okay.”
He checked the time and said, “I’ve got some business to attend to, I’ll just leave you to lunch.”
He went out
$ing that.
Watching his back, Theresa stood up and went out too.
It seemed like Roderick knew she would catch up, so he waited outside.
She walked up to him and said, “Doctor Roderick.”
Roderick turned around and looked at Theresa, then he said, “About the thing you asked me last time?”
Theresa nodded.
The favor she asked from Roderick was that she wanted him to pull up the documents about her previous artificial
insemination.
Those files were deleted, and she thought the hospital should have a backup.
But the hospital staff knew nothing about it when Theresa went over and asked. She racked her brain but still went
nowhere, and at that point, someone happened to mention Roderick.
They met twice in college, and this time she asked a favor from him and Roderick agreed to help.
Roderick said, “I’ve checked and didn’t find your files. It’s weird. Are you sure you underwent an artificial insemination
process in our hospital?
There must be files if you did.
Theresa nodded and said, “Of course I’m sure. I just can’t have a baby on my own, right?”
Roderick said, “That’s really weird. I checked after you told me, but I just couldn’t find anything.”
Theresa frowned and thought: Jimmy can’t be that capable.
Could he even be able to delete the hospital files?
She said to Roderick, “Not even a back-up? Don’t tell me your hospital never keeps backup files, does it?
Roderick replied, “We should do that according to procedures. But I really couldn’t find yours.” He even started to
suspect Theresa of having a mental problem, otherwise how come she remembered it wrong?
The look on Theresa’s face was complicated, she thought Roderick would help her take care of this, but.......
Roderick looked at her and asked, “Do you really need it that much?”
