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.”

“I’d better not,” Theresa said, glancing at Thomas with a slight sense of grievance. “Mr. Smith mentioned he doesn’t like girls who are chubby. He even said something about a ‘good woman never weighing over a hundred pounds.” I should control my diet.”

Thomas was stunned.

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

“Shut your mouth!” Mrs. Smith roared at him.

Thomas was almost in tears. “Mom, I really never said that.”

“You never said it? Would Theresa lie?” Mrs. Smith’s gaze was like daggers aimed at Thomas.

“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.”

Theresa stared at Mrs. Smith blankly, and the next moment, tears started rolling down her cheeks.

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