Chapter 042 I Can Lump It

Roderick smiled, “I’m glad you are okay, I worried so much about you! Your legs appear promising to recover.”

Charlie said, “I hope so.”

Anyway, everything was going well.

Roderick yawned. “I’ll go to bed then.”

He walked out of the ward after finishing his words.

Seeing that Roderick left and Charlie was fine, Theresa said to Charlie, “Then I’m going back, too.”

She was glad he was okay!

She just came to check on him.

Seeing that she was leaving, Charlie said, “Wait.”

Theresa heard him and glanced at him over her shoulder.

Charlie said, “I decide to give you a reward for spending time with me so late.”

“Huh?” A reward?

Hearing the reward, Theresa got excited. The boss was generous indeed, was he going to give her money?

It was so considerate of him to give her money when she was on a tight budget.

She was expectant until she heard Charlie say, “So today, I’ll just permit you to stay with me for company.”

Theresa was dumbstruck for a moment, and then she looked at Charlie incredulously. Oh, man, you call this a reward? Surely she was not willing to do it!

Why would she stay with him since he was all right? Besides, wasn’t Jonathan here?

But Theresa was too timid to make it too obvious.

She made an excuse, “I want to go back. I left two babies at home, I’m worried about them.”

“They are just sleeping at night, What makes you so worried?” Charlie looked at this awkward woman. Did she decline the

permission to stay with him for the company?

She made it look like he was making her stay!

Theresa said, “But there are only two kids at home…… I am afraid.”

“Then what are you doing in the hospital?” Charlie looked at her.

Theresa was speechless. Is it wrong to check on you?

I felt worried, so I’m here to check on you.”
