Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement -
Chapter 32
Chapter 032 Being Jealous?
Hearing what you said, Theresa replied, "My ex-husband was infertile, so we decided to have two kids, but later he changed his mind and we got divorced over this. It's just that now he's been spreading the rumor that I cheated on him
and got pregnant, so I'm just trying to prove my innocence."
She didn't know a better way to have people convinced other than showing them the solid evidence.
Just like what happened last night, Jimmy could deny everything with just saying she didn't have the evidence.
Roderick said, "In that case, I can forge a file for you, do you think it's gonna work?"
Being left speechless, Theresa was looking at him, and then she put on a forced smile, "Doctor Roderick, don't tell me
you really believe I had an affair and I'm being unreasonable right now, don't you?"
Roderick was stunned because that was what he had in mind.
Theresa said, "I thought you could help me out, but now your hospital has a problem and you think of me like that?
Her self-esteem was hurt.
She didn't know what she did wrong really.
She thought: I was too stupid to believe Jimmy that much. I'm the one to blame.
Seeing the disappointing look on her face, Roderick started to feel a strong sense of guilt, and then he said, "I'm really sorry, two people of those in charge at that time already resigned, I'll just go ask them, but it's gonna take time, is that
okay?"
Theresa asked, "Can you replace my files?"
She now even started to doubt her own life.
She thought: was Jimmy that competent?
Could he really pull this off so perfectly without a loophole?
Roderick replied, "I'll try my best, I'll let you know if I replace your files."
She said, "Thanks." At this moment, he was the only hope she got.
After the conversation with Roderick, Theresa went back to the restaurant and saw Charlie still there.
So she went to sit where she sat.
Charlie looked at her coldly and ridiculed, "You just followed him out like a dog begging for petting, do you have any pride as a woman?"
Theresa was thinking about the file thing, and got stunned after hearing what Charlie just said. She turned to look at him and said, "What do you mean by that?"
She was surprised that he would verbally assault her out of the blue.
She might depend on him financially and decide to put up with him in many aspects, but she wouldn't step down when it comes to her principles.
Charlie asked, "You like Roderick, right?"
Theresa said, "Doctor Roderick is such a gentleman and has a successful career at his young age. What's wrong if I do
like him?"
Charlie put on a mocking smile and said, "That's funny, I can't believe you, as a divorced woman, are so delusional." Hearing Charlie's mocking remarks, Theresa got mad and replied, "Yes, I'm divorced, so what? Did I say I need you to
support me financially? Did I ever live like a parasite and live on your money? I never said I would marry you." Seeing her keep talking without let-up, Charlie said, "Nice, with Roderick having your back, you're now even showing no
respect to me at all."
She had been docile for the past two days, but she just changed her attitude after meeting Roderick
Theresa smiled and said, "Respect is mutual, Charlie, you disrespected me first."
She was divorced indeed, but she didn't expect to rely on anyone else. So why would she allow him to belittle her like Charlie replied, "You're the one showing no respect, okay? You're my wife, but you lost your grip when seeing another
man and followed him out like a lackey. This is humiliating, you know that?"
Thinking about she just followed him out and talked to Roderick for that long outside, and he had no idea what they were talking.
Charlie grew even madder!
He thought: is this woman cheating on him?
If that was the case, he wouldn't let her get away with it.
Hearing what he said, Theresa felt irritated, and said, "Mr. Calsis, you're making everything your own business right
now. We're just going to take marriage in case you forget, okay? Why are you acting like you're jealous?
Jealous?
Charlie was stimulated by this word.
He thought: I would never get jealous!
Never!
Looking at Theresa, he explained with a made-up excuse, "I'm jealous? You gotta be kidding. I'm just trying to remind
you that a man like Roderick will never like a divorced woman like you and he'll never marry you!
Theresa replied, "Thanks for that, but that's none of your business! I know I'm divorced, but no everyone else has a
prejudice against divorced women. If I can marry you, why can't I marry Roderick?" Charlie said, "The Roderick Family isn't like mine. You're daydreaming!"
He never expected her to want to marry Roderick!
He thought: this woman here was such a dreamer.
Theresa said, "Doctor Roderick is a gentleman and 1 think his whole family is alike, after all a man's decency is much
related to how they were raised up. So I think his family members should be decent."
Charlie got a little angry and said, "I dare you say that again."
He thought: it was bad enough to talk bad about himself, it wasn't acceptable if she tried to humiliate his family. Noticing that Charlie was mad, Theresa said nothing else. She checked the time and said, "We almost finished the lunch,
can I go back and take a rest now?"
"No." replied by Charlie, he just directly denied her plan for a nap at noon. Theresa asked, "What else?"
One hour later, she found herself in a wedding dress shop and finally she realized. She didn't expect him to take her to a wedding dress shop right after the lunch. Charlie sat nearby and several saleswomen were offering service to Theresa. They took out all the wedding dresses for Theresa to put on one by one.
Theresa stood inside the dressing room and a saleswoman helped on put on the dress, and she said, "Wow, lady, your
figure is quite excellent, this wedding dress seemed to be tailored for you."
Hearing that compliment, Theresa lifted the corner of her mouth and thought: come on, I wasn't really going to get married.
It didn't take great pains like this when she got married with Jimmy.
After putting on a dress, Theresa pulled open the curtain and saw herself in the mirror. Charlie and Jonathan were sitting
next to it.
Charlie was holding a tablet computer dealing with affairs in work. The reason why he took Theresa to a wedding dress shop today was that he was ridiculed by his grandfather.
He thought: just pick a wedding dress for Theresa, a piece of cake.
When Theresa appeared before him in that dress when that curtain was pulled open, Charlie was amazed.
That dress actually was ordinary in style, but it looked much better on Theresa.
Theresa stood next to them feeling quite sleepy. She looked listless because she had undergone such a boring thing.
"I think this dress looks good, let's just have it." temporized Theresa.
She thought: it wasn't like they were really getting married, there was no need to take this whole thing seriously because
it was just some kind of formality.
After she said this, she saw Charlie sitting there, staring at herself and remaining silent.
It looked like he wasn't quite satisfied.
The saleswoman noticed his dissatisfaction and said, "Let's try another one."
Theresa said, "Okay."
She had to because Charlie was the man to pay her money and wasn't happy now.
The curtained was closed again, and then Charlie looked away.
