    Chapter 744 Charlie’s Persuasion


    He had seen Cristina upset by Eugene’s aggressive mother. Despite Theresa and Brendaforting


    her throughout the meal, Cristina still seemed angry.


    Eugene asked, “May I check on her?”


    Charlie hesitated, lost in thought. He was in a nasty mood today because Theresa didn’t buy his words.


    However, Eugene’s gaze reminded him of himself. He didn’t want Eugene to end up like him, so he


    nodded in permission, saying, “Come in.”


    Theresa and Cristina had already returned to the room. Cristina was sitting on the couch while Theresa


    was helping her wipe her hands. “Don’t overthink,” she reassured. “After all, there are so many men in


    this world, and Eugene isn’t the only one.”


    “But I just can’t forget him,” Cristina confessed, her eyes turning sad. “Whenever I close my eyes, I


    think of how his mother mistreated him.”


    Theresa reached out to gently touch Cristina’s head,menting. “You are trapped in love, my poor


    girl.”


    Just then, someone knocked on the door.


    “Who’s there?” Theresa inquired.


    Charlie opened the door and showed his face.


    Surprised to see hime back, Theresa stood up and walked to the door. “Didn’t you leave?” she


    asked with confusion.


    “Come out, I have something to tell you,” Charlie beckoned.


    Theresa then went out and closed the door. Noticing Eugene standing in the hallway next to Charlie.


    When she saw Eugene, she frowned. She believed that if it weren’t for Eugene, Cristina wouldn’t be


    like this now. “Why are you here?” Theresa demanded.


    “I want to see how Cristina is doing,” Eugene requested.


    “What wouldn’t youe earlier?” Theresa interrogated sharply. Even though Cristina was injured by


    E, Eugene hadn’t inquired about Cristina until now, which infuriated Theresa.


    “I’m sorry, as soon as I heard that my mother came over, I rushed here. She’s always been hostile


    toward anything rted to me. And that’s the reason why I left Cristina before. I didn’t want to cause


    Cristina any trouble,” Eugene exined.


    “If you were really so worried about her, you should have stayed away from her. You are the one who


    said you would marry her. You’re also the one who hurt her so badly. She doesn’t want to see you now.


    Just go,” Theresa used.


    Knowing that he had made big mistakes, he still wanted to see Cristina. He pleaded with a hoarse


    voice, “Theresa, can you let in? Just a couple of minutes, please?”

    Thinking of Cristina’s sadness, Theresa asked, “What are you going to say to her? Are you here to say


    goodbye to her? Do you have any n to protect her from your mother’s pester?”


    Eugene fell silent.


    “You can see her, of course,” she continued. “But Eugene, I’m really disappointed in you. She has


    given you too many chances, but what you have done is all wrong. As a man, you should show some


    responsibility. If you want to live with her, try to think about your future with her. If you can’t bring her


    happiness, then don’te and bother her again. She needs a peaceful life.” She really hoped that


    Cristina wouldn’t suffer anymore. Eugene clenched his fingers tightly, lowering his head.


    Seeing this, Charlie, who was standing on the side, spoke up, “Theresa, I forgot something in your


    room.” Theresa shot him a disapproving nce, asking, “What did you drop over there?”
