Chapter 006 He Could Barely Stand
Theresa hurriedly denied, “No, no!” Seeing that Theresa was speaking with hesitation, Charlie said, “If their appearance affected your state of mind, you could go outside and calm yourself down in case of any mistakes during the treatment.” He didn’t want her to make his legs completely incurable! Theresa heard his words and replied, “Don’t worry. There won’t be any mistakes. But, Mr. Calsis, I’d like to thank you for what you did just now.”
“Me?”
Theresa said, “Thank you for not driving me away after others’ nonsense.” Charlie captured the gratitude in Theresa’s eyes. He looked away and spoke coldly, “I just hate trouble. It’s too troublesome to hire a new one. As for you… if you’re really useless as that Jimmy guy said, I will fire you. Don’t worry about that! Don’t fall in love with me for that! I have an extremely high standard for my other half. You won’t be able to meet that standard.”
Theresa was dumbfounded by his words full of narcissism. Fall in love with you? How did you come to that? And that last sentence is so mean. To avoid him from thinking too much, Theresa clarified herself, “Please rest assured, Mr. Calsis. I came to treat you for and only for a little sum of your money as my hard-won salary. I’m not interested in anything else.”
Charlie replied, “Good.” With his status and power, he was a perfect husband for too many women. Seeing the confident and aloof expression on Charlie’s face, Theresa was speechless. Jonathan had come back from bringing Mr. and Mrs. Waston out. He asked as he saw that Theresa didn’t get started, “Can you get started?” Theresa was ready.
“Yes, I can.” Charlie had been paralyzed from his hips down for a long time. He had long been able to having any feelings on his legs. However, when Theresa was giving him acupuncture treatment, he felt a faint ache on his legs. Theresa asked, “Do you feel the little pain?” Charlie was surprised by the
effect of her skills. Hearing her words, he nodded. Theresa continued, “That’s good. It proved that I was right. The leg nerves haven’t been completely dead. I will come here every day for the next week. We will see each other very frequently then, Mr. Calsis.”
Looking at Theresa, he felt that her appearance brought him a glimmer of hope. He was also in a much better mood, and seeing Theresa was about to go out, he ordered, “Jonathan, give Dr. Cameron a ride.” Jonathan nodded:
He followed Theresa downstairs and was to drive her home personally. It was difficult to get a taxi near the Calsis’s Residence, so Theresa didn’t refuse.
They got in the car and after Theresa told Jonathan her address, Jonathan drove her home.
When they reached Theresa’s apartment, Jonathan said, “Dr. Cameron, we’ve arrived.”
Theresa said, “Thank you, Jonathan.”
She opened the car door and got off the car. As Jonathan saw that Theresa was off, he decided to leave.
Suddenly, he caught sight of a man standing at the gate of the apartment. It was Jimmy.
How could Jimmy Waston come to Theresa’s place in this middle of the night?
Do they know each other? Jonathan saw how limmy tried to humiliate Theresa in front of Master Calsis, and, as he saw Jimmy now, he suddenly realized that there was some personal grudge between Jimmy and Theresa.
Theresa also saw Jimmy.
She darkened her face and said scathingly, “Oh, isn’t it Mr. Waston who had been avoiding me? It’s harder to see you paying me a visit than see a pig flying.”
Jimmy also darkened his face. The fact that he was to meet this woman often in the Calsis’s residence made him feel creepy.
He looked at Theresa and asked, “When did you become an acupuncturist? Why didn’t I know?”
“Do I need to write reports to you?” Theresa gave him a cold glare. Jimmy’s harsh words at the Calsis’s residence occurred to her and she continued satirizing, “And, I thought you were confident when you told Mr. Calsis that I am a liar, that my certificate is forged.”
Jimmy looked at her and felt it ridiculous that Charlie should have hired this woman. He sneered, “Acupuncturist? You? Calsis could find better acupuncturists. They don’t need you! I see. You managed to approach Charlie with your pretty face, didn’t you? That Mr. Charlie Calsis is a cripple. He could barely stand! And even so, you are throwing yourself on him? You really have become a shameless woman!” Jimmy somehow felt jealous when he saw Theresa doing acupuncture for another man, and that she might see or even have contact with another man’s body! Maybe it was men’s nature. Even if they had divorced, he still wanted her to be loyal to him. Theresa laughed.
“He? Cripple? Better than you, I suppose! Jimmy boy, I don’t think your little thing could put you in a position to make such slanderous remarks on others?” Theresa suddenly felt that she must have been crazy that she should get over with such a thing as sexual dysfunction.
What was the result of her endurance? He ruined her life, her everything!
Thinking of which, she didn’t want to give any face to Jimmy. She knew that Jimmy would take offense at this and she deliberately said so to exasperate him. Hearing Theresa’s sarcasm, Jimmy felt more
furious. He had been cured. However, his past impotence was an indelible shame. What’s more… Theresa was the only person who knew about his dysfunction.
He was somehow unconfident in front of her. He said, “I’ve been cured.”
“Is that so?” Theresa looked at him suspiciously.
Her gaze full of doubts made Jimmy extremely uncomfortable. He said, “Why are you staring me like that? I tell you. I didn’t feel the desire because you are not attractive at all! “I am good when I’m with Rose. That was all your problem. I see. Charlie is crippled and he couldn’t fuck. That is why he took fancy to you! I came to tell you. You can stay in the Calsis as you like. But you will have to shut your mouth! ! you ever try to ruin my things, neither of us will get away with it! Theresa sneered, “What? Are you afraid that they might find out that I am your ex-wife?”
Jimmy defended himself, “I’m not. I just don’t want to be involved with your kind! Understand?
“My kind?” Theresa sneered, “How you knelt before my father, begging him to marry me to you. You forgot? And how you knelt before me, crying and begging me to accept you. You also forgot? I was pregnant for you. For seven months, I gained weight, I became bad-looking… Tell me, what is my kind?
“Jimmy Waston, I know you hooked up with Rose, and you are doing great in the company. So, you think you’re superior to me? You’re nothing but a piece of shit wtro gets everything by hooking up with ladies from higher classes. As your ex-wife, I should be the one to feel ashamed. Do you understand?”
“What did you say?” Jimmy suddenly became fierce and squeezed Theresa’s neck. Apparently,
Theresa’s words made a blow to him. He hated her so much that he wanted her to vanish from this world as he knew that she knew all his secret and his unbearable past.NôvelDrama.Org content.
