Chapter 053 I Love My Wife Only
Cristina was intrigued by Charlie. He looked handsome even if he was in a wheelchair.
Above all, for Cristina, he was glowing
Leticia introduced them to each other, “This is Cristina.”
She had told Charlie about Cristina and the boys over the phone, but now she didn’t say much about them for the sake of
Theresa.
Charlie glimpsed at Cristina, the woman who had used the kids to get close to his mother and marry him. Ridiculous!
He’d very much like to see what this woman was gonna do.
Cristina smiled to Charlie, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Calsis.”
With a long face, Charlie said nothing.
Theresa sat down, confused about what Cristina was doing. However, Cristina was eyeballing him pretty hard.
Charlie put some meats and vegetables in Theresa’s bowl. “Come on. Eat.”
Theresa didn’t know what Charlie was up to. Since when was he so sweet?
Panicked, she ate slowly and meanwhile sent a message to Cristina with her phone. “What the hell are you doing?”
‘Admiring your husband of course.” Cristina replied. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Theresa could even feel her abnormally high pulse rate.
In case Leticia found something, Theresa put down her phone, and looked at Charlie.
Leticia asked, “You know Miss Lagarde, Charlie?”
Charlie raised his head, glanced at Cristina and said, “No. I don’t have to know such a grifter.” Seriously?
A grifter?
Damn!
“Are you sure you don’t know her?” Leticia reconfirmed.
Charlie said, “I don’t know this liar who popped up from nowhere.”
Cristina said, “But I know you! Charlie, you’re so handsome!”
She appeared to be a love-sick girl.
Charlie heard her. “I’m married.”
And then he looked at Theresa, reached out and put his arm around her shoulder. “You’d better back off.”
Theresa could feel the weight of his hand, as if she was cuddled up against him.
She knew that they were playing games, but she was still shocked. For a long time she had been lonely.
Cristina eyed Charlie and Theresa with amusement. This man was almost perfect except for his crippled legs.
She even thought that it was good for Theresa to marry him!
She lowered her head, and sent a message to Theresa. “He’s nice!”
Theresa kneaded the center of her forehead, not knowing what to say. Charlie was unaware that Cristina was acting and
vice versa.
Theresa was so afraid to give them away if she said something wrong.
So she sent a message to Cristina immediately. “Stop it. What the hell do you want?”
Cristina ignored the message, raised her eyes, and asked Charlie, “Well, I heard that your wife had a divorce, and she has
two kids. You two don’t make a match at all, and your social status is way higher than hers. Is it OK with you, Mr.
Calsis?”
Although Cristina had never spoken ill of Theresa, now she was curious about how he would react to this. Charlie smiled, “It’s not your place to comment on my wife’s privacy. She divorced because her ex- husband was a
scumbag. She has two kids, so what? I love her. That makes her kids my kids!”
Theresa sat closer to Charlie than anyone in the dining room.
His voice was soft, but every word he said was astonishing.
Theresa glanced at him, and almost lost her marbles because of his charm.
Charlie eyed Cristina in disgust. “No more playing us off against each other. I love my wife only. You don’t stand a
chance.”
She was nothing but a grifter!
His mother was so old that she had believed that Cristina had his kids!
Nonsense!
Charlie’s words were quite offensive, but Cristina wasn’t angry at all.
This man was really her thing!
He could definitely protect Theresa from Jimmy!
But for this acting, Cristina couldn’t wait to pronounce them real husband and wife!
She controlled herself, stood up and asked Leticia, “May I use the bathroom?”
She almost jumped.
Leticia nodded. “Of course.”
Having been controlling her feelings, Brenda offered to show Cristina the way.
She couldn’t figure out what her niece was up to, and she couldn’t ask in front of everyone either.
At the door to the bathroom, Brenda went, “What the hell is this, Cristina? You got two more kids? What were you talking
about?”
Cristina said, “Leave it alone, aunt. I’m doing this for Theresa.”
At this time Theresa came, and dragged Cristina into the bathroom. “Are you out of your mind?”
In the presence of the Calsis Family, Theresa was at an utter loss what to do.
She couldn’t bear it at all.
Looking affectionately at Theresa, Cristina imitated Charlie, “No more playing us off against each other. I love my wife
only. You don’t stand a chance.”
Theresa went silent.
There was nothing wrong with the way Charlie had said those words, but Theresa felt humiliated after Cristina had
repeated them.
She warned her friend, “Enough!”
“I get it now. You married the right man, Theresa. I like him too! He’s much better than Jimmy. Above all, he’s rich,” Cristina looked around this bathroom. “Oh, I’m jealous. This bathroom is much bigger than my apartment!” Theresa sternly said, “No more jokes, Cristina. I don’t love him. We’re not a couple. We just signed a contract. So don’t
take it serious!”
“A contract?”
“Yeah,” Theresa had to tell her the truth. “I agreed to marry him and help him find Sarah. As soon as she gets back, we’ll
divorce. That’s it!”
“Sarah? You mean your stepmother’s daughter? What does she have to do with Charlie?”
“She’s his fiancée.”
“His what?” Cristina was shocked. “Wow. So it was Sarah who dumped Charlie because of his disability!”
