Chapter 497
He looked very serious, with displeasure in his dark eyes after having been deceived.
Theresa was stunned and looked at the man in front of her. What was he talking about?
Did he know… about the kids?
Theresa felt her heart thumping as the secret that she had been so intent on keeping was now uncovered by him.
He found it out!
Charlie knew that Leonard and Ben were his biological children?
Didn’t Eugene say he hadn’t told Charlie?
Theresa was thinking about how she should react when Charlie saw her hesitation and said,
“Don’t think that playing dumb will help! I’ve had it investigated. You and Cristina have known. each other for a long
time! Even when Eugene was dating her, you were the one who set them. up. So, why did you say that you didn’t

Theresa, who had been so flustered, paused when she heard Charlie’s words. She looked at
Charlie and breathed a sigh of relief. “So, that’s what you have to say?”
Charlie stared at her intently. “What else do you think I have to say?”
Seeing that he only knew about her relationship with Cristina, Theresa felt a lot more relaxed at once.
She explained, “Cristina and I did meet a long time ago, but later, we didn’t have much contact after some unhappy
things. So, when we met again, we would naturally pretend that we didn’t know each other!”
“Really?” Charlie said. “But you two are close now. You even went out drinking together yesterday.”
“The past is all in the past. When we thought about it, we didn’t find it necessary to go on like that, so we made up.”
After that, Theresa looked at Charlie and saw him sitting on the couch, looking at her with a cold face.
He said, “What a story.”
Theresa looked at Charlie and said helplessly, “You’re not happy with it? So, what exactly do your want to hear?”
“I just want to hear if my dear wife can tell me something true.”
Theresa looked at Charlie and the corners of her mouth twitched. Shit, what was she supposed to say?
She looked at Charlie and said, “Well, since you want to hear it so much, then I’ll tell you the truth. Cristina and I
have known each other for a long time, so I have already known about Leonard and Ben. After all, she and I were
close. It’s no surprise that I’ve met the boys. When I first met you, I was surprised that you looked exactly like the
two children, and at that time I thought that you must be their father.”
Charlie stared at her closely. Theresa was pressured to continue, “When you tried to take them back, I disagreed
because Cristina had raised them herself. You might think that you could just take them back because they were
born with your genes, but it wasn’t so easy for a mother to give birth to them and raise them. I am also a mother,
so it was only natural for me to disagree…”
At this point, Theresa’s eyes were red.
She was the mother. Of course, she would be emotional,

Seeing her eyes red, Charlie had to believe her words.
Theresa tried to continue to justify her relationship with Cristina when Charlie’s phone suddenly. rang. Ben’s voice
came over the phone. “Dad, are you back yet?”
Charlie hadn’t been home last night after the fight with Theresa. When he heard his baby son’s voice, his heart
naturally softened.
He said, “Yes, I’m back!”
“A nasty woman is disturbing us while we are doing homework in my room. Can you help us get rid of her?”
“A nasty woman?” Charlie frowned when he heard this.
Sarah was still in the room. Her face darkened when she heard Ben talking on the phone. So, she was just a nasty
woman in Ben’s eyes!
Okay, fine. Just wait until she got Charlie. She would teach these two kids a lesson!
It was obvious that these two brats had been spoiled and never suffered.
Charlie went upstairs just as Sarah was coming out of the two kids’ room.
She came out, saw Charlie, and said softly, “You’re back, Charlie?”
“What are you doing here?” Charlie looked at Sarah.
