Snare of Love novel Chapter 322

He could only hide it from Dolores at that moment.

“Notify me anytime when there's a new progress.” Matthew glanced at the time, “I'm leaving first.”

Boyce said yes.

Matthew stopped by the door.

“You're alone, come and eat the new year's eve meal tonight.”

Boyce was not from City B, none of his family was there too, he didn't spend the new year at home for the previous years, the three of them would meet outside, but it was different that year, Armand was married and had his own family, Matthew also had Dolores and the two children, he would definitely not be able to go out during new year's eve, Boyce seemed lonely.

“Okay.”

Boyce smiled, “I thought that you forgot me because you're all married.”

Matthew reminded him, “Don't spill it out.”

“I know.”

Matthew walked out the villa, it was snowing hard outside, his grey coat blew in the wind, leaving a thin piece of snow on his hair, he pressed the car key's unlock button, the car light flashed, he then opened the car door and got inside.

He lowered the car window and glanced at the villa, which was almost covered by snow, then he retracted his gaze, started the car engine, and left.

The car stopped at the Nelson family's, red lanterns were hung on the roof, it was very eye catching among the white snow.

He went in and saw the two children hanging ‘firecracker, fish...’ and various decorations which symbolized the new year, they felt that it was fun so they were very excited.

Jayden and Victoria followed them, in case they accidentally fell down.

Coral came over to take the clothes he took off.

“What about her?” Matthew asked.

“In the room.” Coral answered.

“She slept for the whole afternoon?” Matthew asked again.

Coral shook her head, “She went shopping.” she flaunted and said, “She even bought clothes for me, I have never seen such a good woman.”

Coral choked up when she talked to the end.

She never got married in all her life, she had no son and daughter, even if Matthew treated her well and gave her a lot of money, but no one had ever bought things for her.

Matthew patted her shoulders, “I'll go and take a look at her.”

Coral smiled and say, “Hurry, go upstairs.”

Upstairs, Dolores sat by the window, with the square pillow in her embrace, she held her chin with both hands as she looked at the heavy snow outside.

She didn't even sense it when the room door was opened.

Matthew walked over and put his hand on her shoulders, “What are you thinking about?”

Dolores raised her head, at that time, Matthew saw that her eyes were red so he caressed her cheeks, “What's wrong?”

“I miss my mom.” Dolores hugged his waist, she actually wanted to go to the Flores family to visit her, but she was afraid that they would quarrel again.

They had always celebrated new year together, that was the first time they didn't, she felt sad at heart.

“What if I send someone to pick her up?” Matthew tried to ask her.

Dolores shook her het, “Forget it, I'm afraid that we'll argue again, I just don't understand, Randolph is a selfish guy, she should've understood.”

“Don't think about it, do you want to change your clothes? Later we'll go and eat the new year eve dinner.” Matthew deliberately diverted her attention.

“By the way, I bought clothes for you, try and see if you can wear it.” she let go of Matthew, went down to wear her slippers, opened the bag on the bed, and took the suit out, “I think that it's very suitable for you, so I just bought it.”

Matthew's clothes were all custom made from overseas, he would not need to go and buy clothes in the mall for all the four seasons of the year, they had his measurements and they would send it every season.

He walked over, Dolores was excited, “Try it, okay?”

Matthew said yes respectfully.

Dolores took his clothes off, put on the one she bought, it was very well-fitting, actually she didn't know Matthew's size, as a fashion designer, she was extremely sensitive to a person's build, as long as she saw someone's height and approximate weight, she knew which size would be fitting.

She straightened our his collar, ironed very well, she then puffed her cheeks, “I don't even have the heart to buy such expensive clothes for myself.”

Back then she just wanted to save money for the children, it was the first time that she spent so much money, mostly for him.

Matthew laughed softly, “Then, do you love me more than you love yourself?”

She didn't have the heart to buy for herself but she would buy for him?

Dolores pouted, “I regret it, I'll take it for a refund tomorrow.”

Matthew was speechless.

“I won't allow that.”

He liked it, not because it was expensive, just because Dolores picked it for him, even if it was from stalls by the street, he would wear it too.

Dolores put the clothes into the back and deliberately said, “There's no use even if you won't allow that.”

He was surprised, the corner of his eyes glistened, “Is that so?”

“Yeah... No, no...” she immediately changed what she said when she met Matthew's face, smiling but didn't seem like a smile.

“It’s too late.” before his words ended, he already pulled her into his embrace, Dolores pushed him away, “Don't make a scene.”

“When did I make a scene? Hm?” he bent down to lean over, his lips pressed against her cheeks.

Dolores immediately changed what she said, “I won't refund it, I'll buy more for you if you like it.”

That way, she might go bankrupt.

“Mm, good girl.” he kissed her cheeks, “Let's go downstairs.”

“Knock knock...”

Coincidentally, there was a knock on the door, it was Coral, “Young Master and Madam, we should go now.”

Matthew said, 'okay', he let Dolores go and tidied her hair that he messed up before, her hair was so smooth, waist-length, had never been dyed, and so shiny.

“Don't keep them waiting.” said Dolores.

When they went downstairs, Boyce was already there, he had gotten along with the two children so they were very familiar with him, Simona was the most excited one, she pulled him and said, “We have a lot of fireworks, do you want to set it with me?”

Boyce rested his cheeks on his hand, deliberately acting like he was thinking, “Fireworks, is it fun?”

Simona innocently said, “Of course it's fun.” she made gestures with her hands, “Just like this, it will go into the sky with a swish, then boom, it'll explode, thus there will be a huge and shiny flower, very beautiful.”

Samuel was covering his eyes on the side, he really couldn't help mocking her, “You thought that Boyce knows nothing? He's toying with you.”

Simona blinked, “Toy me...?”

Samuel was speechless.

He was utterly speechless.

Suddenly Simona ran towards Dolores who just went down, she looked up and acted coyly, “Mommy, I'm hungry.”

“Let's go now, the restaurant has called and prepared.” Victoria took Jayden's coat and handed it to him, “Wear this first.”

Matthew carried the girl who was hugging Dolores' leg.

Not sure why she wanted Dolores to hug her, “Mommy, hug me.”

“You can't.” Matthew refused.

The girl was unhappy, “Why?”

Matthew glanced sideways at Dolores, “You see how she's so slim, she can't carry you in her arms.”

“She can, she used to carry me and my brother at the same time.” Simona refuted.

She thought at heart, 'You don't understand my Mommy as much as I do'.

“Your mommy is injured, she can't carry you in her embrace.” Coral interrupted by saying that, thinking of the surprising bruise on Dolores' waist, she then said, “Is the bathroom upstairs still not slip resistant?”
