Snare of Love

Chapter 127: He Must Have Done Hideous Things in His Past Life

In Herbert family…

Maria tossed and turned in her bed, unable to fall asleep. She looked at her cellphone for a while but

there was no call or any message coming in.

Finally, she couldn’t bear it. She got up holding her phone, thinking about it. She couldn’t stop herself

from making a call.

Her hands were trembling with nervousness and excitement as she held the phone.

She had installed a camera in that room that day, even Sampson didn’t know.

Now, this was her only card that she could use to threaten Matthew.

If he cared about Dolores, he was not going to just watch an erotic video of her being stripped circulate

the internet.

Matthew looked at his phone, his finger hovering over the screen in conflict. Just as the call was about

to disconnect, he picked it up.

“Ah, Matthew!” Maria said in surprise.

She thought Matthew was not going to answer her call.

Matthew did not respond. Her happiness or anger could not influence his mood.

Slowly, Maria calmed down. Holding the quilt in her hand, she clenched and relaxed it a few times

before she spoke, “Did you see the video? Brilliant, right?”

Matthew’s eyes were half-closed lazily; the storm in them was silent.

“Let’s meet, I booked a room at the S&H Hotel, room 108. I am waiting. You don’t really need to come,

but I promise the video of Dolores will spread everywhere online and become the object of obscenity

for every kind of men.”

After saying that, she hung up. Her heart was still beating fast.

She was nervous.

But thinking about meeting Matthew she became very excited.

She got up from her messy big bed and ran to the closet barefoot to find the clothes to wear tonight.

Her closet was full of expensive skirts and dresses; she still couldn’t find anything that would suit this

moment; none of them felt pretty enough.

But now it was too late to go shopping. She could only take out the clothes one by one and try them on.

She looked excited, like a young girl in love going to meet the man she had long admired. She wanted

to look more beautiful and show the most beautiful appearance of herself in front of him.

To make him amazed and fall in love with herself…

She yearned for Matthew to fall in love with her.

Dolores left the bathroom and was greeted enthusiastically by Coral. Coral’s expressions were clearly

stating that she knew what Dolores just did in there.

Dolores lowered her head in embarrassment and said, “I’ll go see Samuel.”

After saying that, she walked towards the room.

She couldn’t stand Carol’s sharp gaze.

“The dinner will be ready soon.” Carol called from behind.

Dolores pretended that she didn’t hear and entered the room. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She only came out at dinner time.

Simona had gotten her “Daddy” and no longer wanted Dolores. At dinner, she took the initiative to run

up to Matthew to sit beside him, “I will sit with Daddy.”

Jessica went to pick her up, “You will be sitting with me.”

She was afraid if they stayed there for a longer period of time, Simona would not want to leave

Matthew.

It was not a good thing; after all, Matthew was not her father.

“No, I will sit with my daddy.” Simona said clinging on to Matthew’s arm tightly.

No one could separate her from her Daddy.

“Simona…”

“Let her sit with me.” Matthew said lightly.

Jessica pondered for a moment and then said, “Don’t mind her, she doesn’t understand.”

“I don’t mind.” Matthew let her sit, “You don’t have to be so courteous, just think of this as your home. I

really made you unhappy when I divorced Dolores, Right?”

Jessica’s attitude towards him had always been very lukewarm and Matthew felt it.

Since everyone knew, Jessica decided to not hide it anymore, “You and Lola are already divorced.

There is no reason for me to bother you like…”

“About the divorce, I think you have some misunderstanding.” Matthew didn’t rush to explain, he said

without any haste, “Me and…”

He looked at Dolores, “Me and Dolores didn’t apply for a divorce certificate, so we are not actually

divorced.”

“What?” Jessica looked at her daughter in surprise and asked, “Is this true?”

Dolores nodded honestly.

Jessica found this information really incredible. She had always thought that Matthew and Dolores had

nothing to do with each other anymore.

“So, we are still husband and wife by law.” The subtext told Jessica that it was reasonable, reasonable

and legal, for Dolores to live there.

“Coral, you manage by yourself tonight. I have somewhere to go.” He wasn’t going to eat dinner at

home, but he didn’t want Jessica to feel uncomfortable living there so he had told her about the

divorce.

“Are you not going to eat at home?” Dolores asked him but immediately regretted it; it seemed a bit

redundant.

He chuckled and hummed faintly, “I have a matter to attend to. You can continue to stay in that room.

Samuel is there too, so you can take care of him.”

He had arranged it well, Dolores was grateful. She nodded and said, “Thank you.”

“We are husband and wife; you don’t have to be so polite with me.” He put emphasis on the first part of

the sentence. While saying that to Dolores, he was also saying it to Jessica to make her understand

that Dolores was now with him.

Matthew stood up but Simona kept clinging to his arm, “Where are you going? Can I go with you?”

She blinked looking up at him.

Matthew pinched her little nose and refused, “No.”

“Why?” Simona asked in disappointment. She wanted to go with him.

What if he left and never came back?

Then she would have no father.

No, she just couldn’t let him leave so easily.

Matthew patiently coaxed her, “Do you want me to like you?”

Simona nodded without hesitation, “Yes.”

“If you listen to what I say, I will like you, right?”

“Right!”

“So, wait for me at home like a good girl.”

Simona was reluctant, but still nodded, “Well, then you have to come back soon.”

She was afraid that if she was not obedient, her father would not like her.

Matthew went upstairs to change his clothes. His clothes had gotten wet when Simona had tried to

wash his face. His shirt was clinging on to his skin and was a little uncomfortable.

He changed into an all-black suit, looking valiant and noble. Under the light, he looked magnificent and

very handsome.

It was just that his indifferent expression scared people away from approaching.

Simona was stunned when she saw him walking down the stairs.

Jessica was feeding her rice, but she forgot to open her mouth and stared at Matthew with her eyes

open wide and full of hearts.

“Simona.” Jessica called her to remind her.

Simona regained her focus and sighed, “Daddy is so handsome.”

Her father was really the most handsome.

Jessica was almost scared by Simona’s behavior. She was just a little child but she was already so

smitten by Matthew’s handsomeness.

When Matthew walked to the entrance, Simona suddenly slid off her chair, ran over and stopped not far

away from Matthew. She looked up at him and asked, “Daddy, will you still come back? You won’t

abandon us, right?”

Because Samuel told her that their father didn’t want them, she was afraid that Matthew would not

come back when he walked out that door. She was afraid that he was going to abandon them again.

Her eyes were red and her voice was hoarse, “Don’t abandon us.”

She was really terrified.

She didn’t want to leave her father.

Meeting her uneasy little eyes, Matthew walked over, patted her head and said firmly, “No.”

Simona was happy again and grinned, “Kiss.”

She stood on her tip-toes and stretched out her hands to hug him for a kiss.

Matthew bent down according to her wishes. Simona hugged his neck and kissed his cheek,

transferring her saliva and some of the rice she hadn’t swallowed on to his face.

Matthew had no words.

Inwardly, he was sure that he must have done hideous things in his past life, which was why God was

punishing him in this life by sending two little demons with Dolores.
