Chapter 543
Daphne came to see them.
Theresa introduced Cristina to her.
Daphne looked at Cristina and said gently, “Hello.”
The two girls shook hands.
Cristina sat next to Theresa and looked at Daphne. She had to admit that Daphne was a
wonderful person.
Cristina had grown up without parental love. Seeing Daphne, she had an inferiority complex.
Daphne said, “By the way, Roderick is also here. I don’t know what he’s doing. I’ll make a call and
ask him to come over for dinner.”
“Uncle Roderick?” Leonard was glad to hear that.
Theresa didn’t know what to say.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven she was surprised to see how much Leonard liked Roderick.
For some reason, she remembered Charlie’s words, “Roderick is your children’s father?”
Honestly, if it weren’t for the fact that the two kids looked exactly like Charlie, Theresa would
have suspected it too.
Not long after Daphne’s call, Roderick came down. He had just woken up from a nap. When he
saw them, he came over with a smile, said hello to everyone, and sat down next to Leonard.
Ben and Leonard said, “Uncle Roderick.”
Roderick looked at Leonard and smiled. “Good to see you again, Leonard.”
“You too.”
Theresa watched them and found that Leonard was more talkative in front of Roderick.
Maybe it was because Roderick, the man, was already very affectionate.
Sitting there, Cristina also watched them and found it incredible. “Leonard, you like Dr. Hill so
much? I don’t think you’re that nice to your dad.”
Daphne laughed. “He even said he wants Roderick to be his godfather.”
Cristina said, “I think that’s okay!”
Daphne said, “You’re his mother. If you are okay with it, then I think it’s possible.”
Daphne did not know that the two kids were actually born to Theresa.
After all, everyone thought that they were Cristina’s children.
Therefore, it was natural for Daphne to think of Cristina as Leonard’s mother.
When they heard that, both Theresa and Cristina froze.
Cristina smiled awkwardly. If Daphne hadn’t said it, she would have forgotten about this.
Roderick sat there, saying to Daphne, “You’re working, aren’t you? Just get back to work. Don’t
worry about us.”
“It’s not about you, but Theresa and the others.” Daphne had invited Theresa here. Of course, she would take care
of Theresa.
As for her brother, he was a man who didn’t need her attention at all. He could take care of himself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoderick said, “Don’t worry.’ I’ll take them out after dinner.”
Daphne said, “Then I’ll leave it to you. I’m going to have a meeting, busy as hell. Guys, see you later.”
With that, she waved at everyone and then went back to her work.
Theresa looked at Roderick and asked, “You’re not working today?”
“No, my sister asked me to come over and have some fun, so I’m here to take a break.” Roderick looked at Theresa
and said, “Shall we go skiing after dinner?”
“Sure,” Cristina said. “But I’m not very good at it.”
Roderick said, “It’s okay. You can learn. It’s fun.”
After dinner, Roderick took them to the snowy mountain.
There was a place to rent ski gear at the foot of the mountain, so they changed before taking a cable car up the
mountain.
The hotel had just opened for business, so there weren’t many people on the mountain. Besides the staff, there
were only a few tourists.
Roderick walked up front and said, “It’s wonderful now when there are fewer people. When there are more people,
it won’t be so great.”
