Scrooge initially disowns Fred, cutting him of without a penny as he mainly blames Fred for the death in childbirth of his much loved sister Fan. Scrooge is also annoyed by Fred's marrying someone who herself has no money. When the Ghost of Christmas Present takes Scrooge to Fan's bedside he sees himself beg for her life. She falls into a coma as Scrooge sits holding her hand. he glares at the baby as it cries and leaves the room. When he'd gone Fan in a faint voice still speaks to Scrooge, begging him to take care of her son. Scrooge never knew this and breaks down seeing the events. He knows he has let his sister down. In stave 5 Scrooge goes to Fred's home to beg forgiveness for his folly; Fred is of course delighted to see his old uncle and welcomes him to his home for Christmas Dinner.

What does Fred want from Scrooge in A Christmas Carol?

Fred is the only son of Scrooge's sister Fran, and his only living relative. Fred makes it clear in "A Christmas Carol" that he wants nothing of his uncle, except for his acceptance of an invitation to dinner. Fred knows that Scrooge is his own worst enemy and renews the invitation every year at Christmas. One of Scrooge's greatest acts of contrition and redemption is to finally accept his nephew's invitation, and make peace with Fred's wife.
