Chapter 263

Speak of the devil – Theresa just found Charlie waiting for her in the passage the moment she went out from

backstage! Jonathan, who was standing behind Charlie, greeted them instantly, “Dr. Hill! Madam!” Despite his

courtesy, Jonathan was rather rattled as he could almost predict Charlie’s reaction at the sight of Theresa and

Roderick together. Roderick was the last man Charlie would like to see to go with Theresa, yet she just preferred to

walk out with him at such a moment.

Sure enough, Charlie’s face turned grim in no time. Fortunately, Ben capered toward Charlie at that instant. “Dad”

called Ben with enthusiasm. That eased up the tense atmosphere instantly. Holding Charlie’s hand, Ben asked,

“Dad, I did the dance today. Did you watch my performance?”

“Of course!” Charlie regarded the energetic and adorable boy.

“Am I cool on the stage?” asked Ben cheerfully.

Charlie gave him a firm nod.

“Dad,” Ben went on, “I miss you so much! Are you busy working today?”

“Not exactly.” Eyeing his son, Charlie almost forgot other things totally, until Roderick went up to remind him of

what had

exasperated him so much.

“Mr. Calsis, I really envy you for having so great boys!” praised Roderick.

Charlie looked up at him with a cold glare. “I know that.” He was just being resentful towards Roderick, despite their

friendship for so many years, because he was certain Roderick wanted to lure Theresa away.

“Why? I’m still thinking about inviting you to a dinner.” Roderick asked, “How could you be so cold to me?” How

could you be completely ignorant of my genuine concern over your wife and your children? That was the real

question in Roderick’s heart.

“I’ll be off now.” replied Charlie curtly. He just didn’t want to continue the conversation. And Roderick could only say

goodbye to him accordingly.

Holding Leonard, Theresa just wondered whether she should stay to at least bid a farewell to Roderick or keep up

with her

husband right now. Roderick just laughed, “Catch him up! Or Mr. Calsis is getting fretful.”

His words got her a bit surprised. “So you really know him well.” said Theresa with a wry smile, though she was

wondering, too, why Dr. Hill would bother to annoy Charlie when he actually was so aware of Charlie’s bad temper.

“We’ve friends for so many years after all.” Roderick answered. “Go ahead! Be quick! And be peaceful, even only

for the sake

of the children. Look, how Ben likes his father!”

Theresa thus strode up, just to find Ben pushing the wheelchair for his father eagerly. Roderick’s remark resounded

on her

mind: “Look, how Ben likes his father!” Yet we were going to divorce soon, Theresa thought in a melancholy mood.

Charlie headed for his private box on the second floor with Ben. They were now the only ones there since Roger

had left. Theresa followed them with Leonard, just to meet Jonathan outside, who opened the door to let Leonard

in.

Theresa was about to enter when Jonathan held her back. Theresa looked at him curiously, “What’s the matter?”

“Madam, could you humor Mr. Calsis a little, since he tends to be more peevish than usual at Sarah’s

reappearance?” pleaded Jonathan.

Theresa should have tolerated Charlie even without Jonathan’s advice, judging from her temperament. Yet She just

became as fretful as Charlie these days, and they would stage a row over the most trivial matter. Jonathan just felt

himself torn between them. He thus implored Theresa to be the one to make the concession.

“Why should I be the one to make concession?” objected Theresa. “It’s he who is being too much…may I ask him to

humor me?”
