Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement by Jacqueline

Chapter 055 A Gift for You

Cristina was shocked. “Nothing ”

She had chatted with Theresa for a few more minutes. Did it bust her?

Cristina was a little worried.

Charlie sternly said, “Theresa is my wife. She does have a bad and painful past. I don’t care what you’re coming

for, but

I’m warning you, Miss Largarde: don’t embarrass my wife ever again, or things will be pretty bad for you.

As he remembered Theresa’s look just now, Charlie couldn’t help frowning. He believed it was all Cristina’s fault.

After all, there were so many women who not only were dreaming to be a rich man’s mistresses, but also would

mess

around his wife once they had a chance.

Theresa loved him, and she’d definitely be hurt.

She may have been convinced that he would dump her one day due to her babies.

How could she be that stupid?

Charlie’s warning surprised Cristina.

So… he was concerned about Theresa?

He thought she was bullying Theresa?

Cristina laughed, “You really care about your wife, Mr. Calsis. I didn’t see that in you. Well, why don’t you just tell me

in

what aspects she exceeds me?”

“All aspects.” Charlie eyed Cristina in disgust. “I think I’ve said enough to you. Today you’re my mother’s guest, and

you’ll be fine. Next time, I’ll make sure that you won’t.”

Cristina looked back at him, bit her lip, and got satisfied. She was happy for Theresa!

Earlier today Cristina hadn’t wanted the paternity test, but now…

She changed her mind.

She asked Charlie, “Don’t you wanna see the kids, Mr. Calsis? They look just like you.”

“A lot of people in the world look similar, but I don’t have any twin brothers, so no one looks just like me.” Charlie

didn’t.

buy a word of it.

He told Cristina, “So much for the kids. I don’t know you, and I never touched you. How come you had my kids? My

mother wants a grandchild too much, but I’m not her.”

Old people were easy to fool, but he was clearheaded.

Cristina raised her eyebrows. She was not in the mood to talk about IVF. By the time the test result came out, he

would

have known.

Even if he wasn’t Leonard and Ben’s biological father, Cristina would still take all efforts to pair Charlie and Theresa

off.

She went out of Charlie’s room, and saw Theresa at the end of the stairway.

Theresa nervously asked, “What did you say?”

Cristina answered, “Secrets.”

“Hey!” Theresa said. “I’m serious.”

Cristina went, “I’m coming home. Oh, why don’t you stay here tonight? I’ll look after Leonard and Ben.”

“What do I stay here for?” Theresa was nearly speechless.

Her babies were still waiting for her!

“Your husband is here. What else can you guys do? When there’s an opportunity, take it. I think Charlie’s really nice

to

you, much better than Jimmy! You’ve been lonely for so long, sweetie. You deserve a man.”

As soon as Cristina remembered what Charlie had told her, she was in such a hurry to throw Theresa to his bed.

Theresa said, “Nonsense!”

“Wow, you blushed. See you around.” Cristina was leaving

Theresa was about to follow her friend when Jonathan went downstairs. She had to control herself for now.

“Jonathan.” She greeted him.

Looking at her, Jonathan spoke, “You’re wanted in Master Calsis’ room, Mrs.”

It suddenly occurred to Theresa that Charlie had asked her to stay here tonight.

And by no means could he forget it.

She had a lot to explain if she wanted to go home!

As Theresa went upstairs, Charlie had been waiting in the bedroom. She opened the door and saw him in the

wheelchair. She said, “You rang?”

Charlie glanced at her. “I did. Sit.”

Theresa came closer, sat on the sofa and looked at Charlie.

What was he gonna say?

And Theresa was also thinking about how she should start with her request to go

Charlie could be stubborn and unreasonable.

He tapped somewhere closest to him. “Sit here.”

It confused Theresa, but she still did as he asked.

back.

Charlie picked up the velvet box that he had just put down, and opened it. There was a ruby ring.

He asked, “Give me your hand.”

Theresa didn’t know what he was doing, but still reached out, and saw him wear the ring for her.

He was satisfied to see that it fit her slim finger.

To Theresa, the ring looked expensive. It could be sold at a profit!

She asked, “What’s this about?”

Charlie said, “It’s a gift. My mom said this was for my wife. Now I’m giving it to you.”

All women loved jewelry. She’d be happy with this, right?

Yes! She looked much better now!

Theresa kept reminding herself that Charlie was not her husband. Therefore, she still had to return this ring as soon

as

they divorced. She looked at it, took it off, and put it back to the box.

Charlie asked, “What are you doing?”

Why did she take it off right after he had put it on for her?

Theresa said, “It’s too valuable, and it’s inconvenient for me to do things with it on. Besides, I may lose it.”

Charlie didn’t like the answer. “Rings are made to wear. What’s the point if you put it away?”

Theresa said, “Well, it’s better than I losing it! What if you wanted it back when we divorce? I won’t be able to afford

a

new one!”

Charlie only wanted her to be happy, hence the ring. He had never thought of getting it back or having her bought

a new

one for him. After all, he had no intention of getting married again.

He put the ring back on her finger. “Never take it off.”

“Fine, but let’s cut a deal first. Never ask me to buy a new one in case I lost it. It’s not my responsibility!” She was

coerced!

Dissatisfied, Charlie said, “You heard me. It’s yours. When did I mention buying a new one? Am I that stingy?”

It was just a ring!

Come on!

Theresa’s eyes shone with excitement. “Really? So it’s OK if I just sell it?”
