Snare of Love

Chapter 106: Agreement

He was still young and his abilities were limited. So he could only partner with this scumbag for the

moment.

Matthew looked down at the kid. He had started to consider for Dolores at this young age and knew

how to be grateful. He had to admit that Dolores had taught him well. They were like a loving mother

and a dutiful son.

At this moment, a waitress came to clear the table and wiped the table. The cloth had been used

numerous times and was filthy. Even after wiping the table, a layer of oil remained on the table.

Samuel pulled the chair out, “Please sit.” He climbed onto the chair and waited for Dolores to bring over

the food.

“Do you despise this place?” Samuel looked at Matthew.

Matthew looked at him, pulled out the chair, and sat down. He did not despise but never came to such

a place for breakfast. Furthermore, some people would occasionally take a peek at him. He felt

uncomfortable for being ogled like an animal in the zoo. He didn’t like such a feeling.

Dolores took the porridge and fried dumplings, fried pancakes, and eggs over. She placed the bowl of

porridge in front of Samuel and another in front of Matthew and herself. Thereafter she replaced the

serving tray and sat down at the table.

Samuel had started to eat the porridge and the fried dumplings. He was enjoying them and they

seemed delicious.

“Why aren’t you eating?” Dolores saw that Matthew hadn’t started to eat.

Matthew then took the spoon and took several mouthfuls of porridge. The rice was well cooked and the

pumpkin was very sweet. The porridge was very tasty.

Dolores looked at his expression and asked, “How does it taste?”

“Pretty good.” Matthew didn’t lift his head and took another mouthful of porridge.

Dolores smiled. Jessica found this shop which was near to where they lived. Samuel liked the pumpkin

porridge the first time he tried it.

“This is also very nice.” Samuel gave a fried dumpling to Matthew.

He looked at the dumpling. He had eaten many different types of dumplings be it made by his mother

or at the restaurants that were very nicely made and delicate. But this one was ugly and looked oily.

“It’s very yummy.” Samuel looked at him with his big round beautiful eyes.”

Matthew looked into Samuel’s eyes and was stunned to see what a pair of beautiful eyes he had, just

like when he was a child. He remembered the photo which Coral looked at of him as a child.

He lowered his guard and put the dumpling into his mouth. It was a mixed meat filling. He thought that

the oily crust would be tough but it was crispy and delicious.

“Yummy?” Samuel asked.

He liked the taste and would like others to feel the same way. So for the moment, he forgot that the

man opposite from his was a scumbag. He just innocently wanted to verify that the dumplings that he

liked to eat tasted great.

Matthew noticed his intentions but poured cold water on it and said, “It’s okay.”

Samuel was speechless.

“Hmph, there must be something wrong with your tongue.” Samuel retorted as he fumed.

Now, Matthew was speechless. He was very healthy and his tongue was fine.

After they finished breakfast, Dolores went to pay while Matthew and Samuel left first.

In the car, Samuel leaned over to Matthew and asked, “What do you intend to do? What do you need

me to do?” Were they now on the same side? Matthew thought. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Matthew signaled him to get closer and Samuel obediently turned his ear to Matthew, “Leave the

revenge part to me. You must protect your mommy when I’m not around. Don’t let her be so foolish to

be set up again.”

“My mommy is not a fool!” Samuel erupted.

“Not a fool?” The bad guys almost succeeded.

“Not a fool.” Samuel shook his head, “It was someone she knew and she let her guard down. She is not

a fool.”

Samuel disagreed with Matthew’s assessment of Dolores.

“If my mother is a fool and you still like her, then you are more of a fool.” Samuel insisted.

Matthew was speechless. What he said seemed logical. He could only admit that Dolores was not a

fool, otherwise, this kid would continue to argue with him.

“I will protect my mommy well.” Samuel waved his hand at him, “Give me your cellphone number. Then

we can be in contact.” Samuel had even thought of the details.

Matthew handed his phone to him and Samuel dialed his own number. After the call went through, he

returned the phone to Matthew and said, “Here, this is my number and now I have yours.”

Samuel extended his hand officially, “Let’s work together.”

He was thoroughly amused by Samuel’s little hand. Was it necessary to be so formal? Okay then. He

extended his hand and shook his tiny hand. It was small, meaty, and tender.

“Partners!” Matthew said.

“We are in agreement!” Samuel declared.

“What kind of agreement?” Dolores paid for the breakfast and heard Samuel say this as soon as she

got into the car.

She looked at her son and then at Matthew and asked curiously, “What are you both talking about?”

“Did we?” Samuel couldn’t think of a reason and refused to admit it.

“Am I mistaken?” Dolores frowned. She wasn’t mistaken. She clearly heard Samuel talking.

“You heard wrongly.” Samuel leaned into her embrace and grabbed her neck coyly, “Mommy, you’re not

old, why are you becoming so muddleheaded?”

“Rascal.” Dolores ruffled Samuel’s hair. Matthew looked at them from the rearview mirror and his eyes

lit up.

Back at the apartment complex, Matthew waited while Dolores took Samuel back to the apartment.

Dolores got back into the car and asked, “Are you going to the office?”

“Give me the evidence.” He demanded.

Dolores was stunned, “What evidence…” She asked and then realized what he was referring to.

“They’re with Terry.” She said.

“Get him to hand them over.” Matthew requested.

“You want them?” Dolores didn’t understand why he wanted the evidence.

“Do you think that with the evidence you can deal with her legally?” The Herbert family’s business

wasn’t great but their connections were strong. As long as they spend some money, they would be able

to suppress any legal case. Not only were they unable to suppress her, but they would also reveal their

intentions.

“Do you want to help me?” Dolores suddenly asked. She was partially hoping for it but was not

confident that he would help her on this matter. He acknowledged simply.

Dolores clenched her hands and looked outside the window and didn’t want him to see her rejoice. It

was the first time her hopes weren’t dashed.

After a while, she called Terry.

Terry was rather excited, “Let me tell you something. I found the B City Law society lawyer. I was about

to look for you. Let’s find a time to discuss this and decide when to submit the litigation.”

“When are you free?” Dolores asked.

“Anytime.”

“Let’s meet up and bring along the evidence,” Dolores said.

“Okay.”

“Where shall we meet?” Terry asked.

“WY Group,” Matthew said this because he needed to go to the office now. Dolore just realized that he

was driving towards the city. After hanging up the call with Terry, Dolores pursed her lips and asked, “If

you’re going to the office, then what am I going to do?”

He extended his hand and caressed her palm, “Keep me company.”
