Snare of Love novel Chapter 198

Matthew looked over to Dolores, who was sitting on the couch holding her daughter, then gently tucked the hair hanging in her ear behind her ear, "No one can hurt my woman, much less bully and insult her."

He raised his eyes, and a smile showed on his calm and serious face, "But because you saved my wife's life, I will not pursue the matter this time. Consider it as a favor I returned to you for saving my wife."

After that, he bent down and picked up their daughter in Dolores' arms and said, "Let's go."

Dolores took a deep breath. She hadn't expected things to come to this.

"Wait."

Charles called out to Matthew.

The usual smile on his face disappeared, "Mr. Nelson, you are so tactful. With such a small matter, you deliberately make a big deal, then you pay me back the favor for saving ..." Speaking of Dolores, he paused for a moment, "Your wife."

Matthew did not deny Charles' words. Because from the time he heard the waitress keep emphasizing that they had Mr. White behind them, he decided in his mind that Mr. White was Charles.

That was why he deliberately made a big deal of it. When Charles came, he gave him the favor of not pursuing the matter and returned him the favor of saving Dolores.

He didn't want Charles to hold on to this favor and hang out in front of Dolores.

Matthew straightened his daughter's somewhat wrinkled collar and looked at her with a gentle smile. But it was to Charles that he said, "Mr. White, thank you. It's just that your people are so ineffective that they gave me the opportunity."

Charles' fingers on the armrest clenched. He had to take it. It was true that there was someone who was taking advantage of his power and bullying others.

He could not say anything to refute.

He looked to Dolores, "I'm sorry for what happened today." As he spoke, he looked Dolores up and down. He knew what she came to the mall for, "I own the mall. If you need anything, just pick it up today, and all the charges are on me. It's my way of making up for the trouble I caused you."

"Mr. White, that is very kind of you. My wife is not in the habit of spending other people's money." Without waiting for Dolores to say anything, Matthew took the initiative to say no.

Dolores looked up at Matthew's handsome face. She really didn't expect him to think of this, and she thought at the time that he was just trying to give Samuel a lesson. This man's treachery and sophistication was something she never expected.

Dolores put on a polite smile, "Thank you, but there is no need."

Charles also smiled, “Well, in the future, if you need me for anything here, just ask. I'm afraid we'll have to meet with the master a little later."

Dolores probably understood that he had to deal with things here, so she said, "If you are free tomorrow, then we'll go tomorrow."

Charles pondered for a moment and responded, "Okay, I'll pick you up at the hotel then."

"Okay." Dolores took her son.

They didn't go back immediately. This time, Matthew followed Dolores every step of the way, fearing that she would be bullied by others again.

Dolores grumbled, "You're making me look like some rare animal by following me around like this."

What kind of woman would go shopping with her husband and children and a group of bodyguards?

Whether it was people shopping, or people passing by, they would give her two more looks, which made her very uncomfortable.

Matthew said seriously, "I'm worried about you being alone. What if you get bullied again?"

"I'm not a kid ..."

"You just didn't fix it."

Dolores was speechless.

She couldn't even refute him.

Compared to their relaxation, Charles was annoyed by this unexpected trouble.

Lacey kept saying she was sorry, but that was not what Charles wanted.

The waitress was stopped inside the store by Tom. She stood by the door and shrank inward, trying to reduce her presence, and hoping that Lacey would plead for her.

"Cousin ..."

"I'm not your cousin!" Lacey got anxious by her cry. She was adopted, and her adoptive parents did not treat her well. Of course, she was not her real cousin either.

But her cousin's mother was quite kind. Once she was scolded by her adoptive parents and locked out of food, it was her cousin's mother who took her in and gave her food.

Lacey remembered her mother's kindness, so she let her come to the store to help when she didn't have a job. She just didn't expect her to not only steal money from the store, but also threaten customers to buy clothes like this.

No wonder she felt that business in the store was getting worse lately.

It turned out that it was all because of her and the store's reputation was ruined.
