Chapter 540
Theresa and Charlie each carried a kid, got out of the car, and went in the door.
The two kids were growing fast. To be honest, Theresa was actually struggling to hold one of them now. Charlie
said, “Put him on the couch. I’ll have someone come and carry him up later.”
Theresa gave him a look. “It’s okay, I can do it.”
“You’re pushing yourself.” With that, Charlie carried Leonard into the elevator, and Theresa followed.
Leonard had been in Charlie’s arms and now, he suddenly woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he was a little surprised to find that it was Badass Charlie who was holding him.
He turned to Theresa. “Mom.”
Charlie coldly snorted. “Just Mom? I have carried you back. Why didn’t you call me Dad?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had noticed that Leonard didn’t call him Dad very often.
Usually, the boy was silent.
Charlie had thought that Leonard was just quiet, so he hadn’t taken it seriously.
Only now did he realize that Leonard just didn’t like to talk to him.
No sooner had Charlie finished his words than Leonard struggled. “Put me down.”
“Try and move again?” Charlie said angrily, thinking Leonard was going too far!
This brat showed clearly that he didn’t like Charlie.
Theresa found it confusing. She wondered why Charlie got along with the two kids in completely different ways.
Charlie was nice and gentle to Ben, but when it came to Leonard, the two of them were like enemies.
Leonard dared not move again because of what Charlie said. He just looked at the man who was holding him… He
had some strange feelings in Charlie’s arms, not expecting Badass Charlie to hold him.
His big eyes were full of disbelief as he looked at Charlie with mixed feelings.
Theresa glanced at Leonard, knowing that he was actually quite happy.
Leonard was not as frank as Ben. He actually liked his dad as much as Ben did. However, Charlie did not like
him, so he could only pretend that he did not like Charlie either.
Seeing that, Theresa felt a bit sad.
Both of the kids woke up by the time they got out of the elevator. Theresa looked at Charlie and suggested,
“Charlie, why don’t you… sleep with the kids tonight?”
Charlie heard Theresa’s words and said, “Why?”
He and she were about to get divorced and she would leave when the divorce was finalized. Why should he let
the two kids sleep with him now?
He wasn’t that stupid, was he?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe hadn’t spent enough time with her!
She was already thinking about how to get rid of him even before the divorce was finalized.
Theresa had meant well. She remembered that the two kids had never slept with Charlie since they came
In the beginning, it was because of his legs. back.
Now that they were leaving, Theresa wanted to give the three of them a chance to spend more time together as
father and son.
She didn’t expect to be rejected by him directly.
Charlie did not agree and Theresa did not bring it up again.
The kids were taken back to their room, where they went to bathe themselves.
Seeing that Charlie had no intention of leaving the children’s room, Theresa said, “I’ll go to our room now.” It was
getting late and she was sleepy, so she yawned and decided to take a shower and go to bed.
To her surprise, Charlie followed her out just as she left the children’s room.
The floor was covered with carpets, which muffled their footsteps. It was so quiet that Theresa could hear
Charlie’s breathing from behind her.
The next second, Charlie said, “What are you and Roderick hiding from me?”
