Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement novel Chapter 208

Chapter 208

Theresa’s silence made Jimmy think she had been hurt by his question. He thus continued, “Isn’t Charlie nice

to you? How come such a nice husband didn’t advise you to bring the two kids with you? So his kids count,

while yours could be neglected?”

Theresa still remained silent. She knew Jimmy would stick to his conjecture that Charlie would never be really

nice to Theresa since Jimmy believed she didn’t deserve that.

And her quietness now made Jimmy even more confident about his guesswork. He thus said as though being wisely, “I’ve no interest in your business. I advised you to keep away from Charlie and you wouldn’t listen. You

just think you’ve married above yourself. But I still have to remind you to be cautious, out of our past

relationship.” Jimmy believed men, especially the shrewd ones like Charlie, were always too smart to be

trustable. Charlie might be interested in you when you were young and beautiful, Jimmy thought, but he was

not willing to marry you but for his grandfather’s request. And he was doomed to dump you when he got fed

up with you!

Despite his seemingly sincerity, Theresa still detected his real intention from his advice — to deprecate her

and gaslight her that she was not worthy of a man like Charlie. What an artist Jimmy was as he could display

his contempt in such a solicitous manner!

Theresa finally smiled. “Thank you for you kind advice. But I will be responsible for my own choice. And I’ll

stick to him even if he is weary of me some day, because I really enjoy watching your timidity in front of him!” Jimmy’s face got grimmer. “Theresa Cameron!” Her words just reminded him of the apology Charlie forced his

mother to make at supper. “Don’t be too much! However gleeful you are now, you are bound to be very

miserable when he stops backing you up!”

She was about to turn round when Jimmy dragged her back by the arm from behind. “Did I allow you to leave?”

snapped he with a glare, as though turning into an authoritative dictator at that moment. In fact, he had

always been that arbitrary in front of Theresa, which was quite different from the gentleness he displayed to

Rose.

Theresa rebuked, “Do you have to be so rude, Jimmy Watson? Don’t forget you are in the Calsis’ Resident now,

and getting too close with me only makes it embarrassing for you yourself.” Theresa couldn’t care less about

the so-called marriage with Charlie since it was only a protocol. She had nothing to be afraid of even if the

truth was exposed. Yet it was a different case for Jimmy. Rose had just got pregnant and the couple had always

been in a good relationship in front of others. What was more, Rose actually had contributed a lot to Jimmy’s prospect in Nandlall’s Group. Jimmy obviously had every reason to be cautious.
