Chapter 228

Thomas felt this was the most miserable day of his life.

For some reason, Theresa suddenly started targeting him mercilessly.

With her gentle and virtuous demeanor, her soft–spoken words would inevitably lead to him getting a beating from

his mother.

At the dinner table.

Theresa said softly, “Mrs. Smith, your cooking is really delicious.”

Mrs. Smith immediately brightened up, constantly serving Theresa more food, “Good child, if you like it, eat more.”

He looked at Theresa in disbelief. “When did I say that!”

“It’s her who’s lying, Thomas said, feeling utterly wronged.

Theresa quickly added, “Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith is right, I lied. He really never said that. Truly.”

‘Theresa, you’re just too kind,” Mrs. Smith said, looking at her sympathetically. “My son is good for nothing. You must be feeling wronged. Don’t listen to his nonsense. Girls are supposed to be a bit plump to look good. Here, eat

more.”

Thomas looked at Theresa in a mix of horror and confusion.
