Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement

Chapter 690

Dick White didn’t leave immediately. He even spent part of the afternoon playing with two kids in their rooms. Theresa was having a chitchat with Cristina downstairs on the sofa when something that she was supposed to ask Charlie crossed her mind. Then she took out her phone texting Roderick. It was about Old Mr. Calsis actually.

Holding tightly the phone in her hand Theresa was waiting for Roderick’s message distractedly, and at this time, Leonard and Ben went downstairs with the help of Dick.

“Good night and see you next time, Miss Cameron” Dick White took his leave of Theresa with a nod and a smile. “See you next time, Mr. White.” Theresa stood up and was going to walk them out as she said. With only a few strides, Dick and his assistant were in the doorway. But he looked back suddenly just when

Theresa was about to close the door behind them. “Well, I better let you know that I’m not coming tomorrow.” His advance notice was thoughtful enough, but it sounded weird when it happened between Theresa and him.

“Thank you for telling me, but you don’t have to tell me that actually.”

“I think it’s necessary.” Said Dick White with his corner of mouth curving.

The embarrassment was growing violently between them due to the weird conversation.

Theresa had no idea of what his intention was for behaving abnormally on this day.

God Damn it! Asking her out? Is he serious?

Whatever! Theresa decided to not dwell on that. She turned her attention to Leonard then, who was still looking in Dick’s direction even though he was out of his range of eyes. The look in his eyes was wistful somehow like he really hated to see him leaving.

“Come on, Leonard, let’s get inside.”

“Mom, is Mr. White really a bad guy?” The little boy didn’t move, instead, he held Theresa’s hand and asked solemnly with his head tilting.

“Why would you ask that?” Theresa looked astounded at his words.

“I just think he is good and he is nice to me.”

Theresa was always glad to see her children being innocent but at this moment, she was alert that too much innocence was often a reflection of children’s unsuspecting personalities.

“Dad isn’t nice to you, is he?” Theresa asked him with a grim face.

Leonard fell silent, and Theresa just contemplated him in silence.

It was Ben who broke the silence in the end. “I think dad is great!

“No, he isn’t!” Leonard didn’t agree.

“No, he is!” Ben defended his father, his voice wobbled with emotion. “I just know that he loves us!”

“I don’t think so, he has been bad to me and mom.”

The implication of his word was that dad was only kind to Ben.

“Whatever, I can’t agree with you. I don’t like Mr. White to be our father.” Saying this, he moved his neck at

Theresa and uttered with an imploring tone, “Mom, please don’t abandon dad and marry Mr. White, he is so pitiful.”

“No, he is not!” Leonard exclaimed without thinking. “He is too bad to be our father.”

There was no opportunity for Theresa to cut in and it was the first time Leonard and Ben’s opinions were divided. to such an extent. Theresa had never expected that. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

The quarrel finally ended up storming into their own rooms in bad mood.

Theresa shrugged in helplessness.

Alright, just let them deal with it by themselves.

She then returned to sit on the sofa. Roderick had already texted back her. He is still in the hospital now.

Will he be in the hospital even on New Year’s Eve?

Yeah, they have thought about taking him home for the New Year but you know what Old Mr. Calsis is like now, he is difficult to deal with given his Alzheimer’s disease. Roderick’s message was delivered quickly.

Theresa wasn’t feeling good at his message since she couldn’t bear to imagine how Old Mr. Calsis, her ex-grandpa-in-law was now.

When she was still feeling sorry for Old Mr. Calsis, another blue bubble popped up on the top of the screen of her phone. Why asking? Are you planning a visit to him at the hospital? I think it will be good for him because

Old Mr. Calsis has spent most of his time alone at the hospital since you divorced Charlie.

Well, I’ll come over now. Theresa made up her mind and got up again.

“What’s wrong? Are you going out now?” Asked Cristina.

“Yeah, I think I should pay a visit to Charlie’s grandpa, he is in the hospital now.” Theresa told Cristina directly,

“Would you like to go with me? I’ll take Leonard and Ben together.”

“Maybe I’ll just go next time,” Cristina stretched and yawn lazily. “I’m tired now after a long day of work, you just go.”

“Well, have a good rest then.”

Theresa went upstairs for Leonard and Ben after the talk with Cristina.

They two were still mat at each other, but the two boys bounded downstairs gaily together when they heard that they were going to visit their great-grandpa.

Ben liked Old Mr. Calsis very much all the time.

So did Leonard though he had a grudge about Charlie.

And the only way to tell if he would like someone was up to their attitudes toward Theresa. In a word, he would like everyone who was nice to Theresa.

It was getting dark outside. Theresa went to the hospital with the children without delay.

Roderick had been there waiting for them.

As soon as they met, he took them to the ward where Old Mr. Clasis was.

But they didn’t anticipate that Sarah Cameron would be here.
