Snare of Love novel Chapter 335

Tom sent Dolores home. When she walked into the house, she noticed that Matthew had not yet returned. Both Samuel and Simona had taken a bath, and they were about to go to bed.

Simona lunged for Dolores when she saw Dolores entered the house, and she embraced Dolores's legs, “Mommy, you have returned.”

Dolores lifted Simona and kissed her cheeks, “Why aren't you in bed?”

Simona thought for a moment and said, “I was waiting for you.”

“You were waiting for nobody. You're only drinking milk,” Samuel exposed her bluntly.

Simona blinked her eyes for few times and glared at Samuel, “Samuel is so annoying!”

Samuel was in fluffy pajamas, and he put the milk cup down. He glanced at Simona, “I was annoying for telling the truth?”

Simona buried herself in Dolores's arms for comfort, “Mommy, Samuel is bullying me.”

Dolores patted her on the back to comfort her, “No, he wasn't talking about you.”

Samuel thought that Simona was childish, who always acted like a spoiled child.

Samuel went back to his room to sleep.

Samuel slept alone while Simona slept with Victoria.

Simona could not sleep alone, and she was afraid of sleeping alone.

Samuel wondered, “Is there something to be afraid of?”

Victoria washed the milk cups after Samuel and Simona finished the milk. She walked over to Dolores and asked, “Are you coming back alone?”

Victoria asked because she did not see Matthew.

Dolores put Simona down and said, “Go and play with Samuel for a while.”

“I want a hug from mommy,” Simona still hang in her arms and did not want to let go of Dolores.

Dolores coaxed her, “Simona is a good girl. I'll take you and Samuel out to play this weekend.”

“Is that real?” Simona got excited.

It was easy to coax Simona by giving her good food and fun.

Dolores rubbed Simona's head and told her that it was true, and only then Simona got down from Dolores's arms and went to Samuel.

“Do you have something to tell me?” Victoria asked.

That was it, or else how would Dolores have sent Simona away?

Dolores said, “Talk about it in the room.”

“Then go to my room to talk,” Victoria and Jayden slept in separate rooms since she took care of Simona, so there was nobody in her room now.

Dolores nodded.

Dolores closed the door after entering the room. Victoria beckoned her and said, “Come and sit here.”

Dolores sat on the bedside, and she was brewing in her mind, “Jeffery had a car accident.”

“Is he seriously injured?” Victoria asked.

Dolores shook her head, “I don't know. Matthew went to him.”

Victoria sighed, “People can never tell what will happen tomorrow.”

“It was not an accident,” Dolores wanted to know if Victoria hated Jeffery.

Victoria opened her eyes wide. She thought that it was unbelievable that it was not an accident which meant that someone did it. Who would dare to do so?

“Charles White came to City B, who was Nathan's adopted son. He was the one who did this to avenge Nathan.”

Victoria lowered her eyes and worried, “Things have been so long ago. Why bother?”

“The hurt has been there even it has been so long ago. Don't you resent Jeffery?” Dolores asked her mind.

Victoria got up and walked to the window. She looked out of the window.

“How to judge it was right or wrong? I promised Jolene back then, so I have to bear the consequences. But things that happened were unexpected. I've thought about it. Jeffery did not do many wrongs. People would only applaud him for doing so if I was the mistress who destroyed Jolane's marriage. Isn't it?”

“But you're not the mistress,” Dolores looked at her.

“But things happened because of me. There are no such things happen if I reject Jolane at that time. Perhaps it was a quirk of fate, or it was destiny. I have long got over the past.”

Victoria felt that she had reached the pinnacle of her life. She was living together with her family members, and they were harmonious and happy. She did not dare to think that she could live happily with them in the past.

Although Matthew would not talk to her, it was good to see him from time to time.

She was satisfied with her life.

“Help me to persuade Charles,” Victoria knew that it was not easy to revenge against Jeffery. She did not want Charles to have an accident since he was Nathan's adopted son.

“I'm afraid nobody can convince him,” Dolores understood that Charles was coming for revenge against Jeffery this time.

Victoria sighed. The next generation should not get involved in the grudge between the previous generation.

“Would you be happy if Charles successfully did his revenge against Jeffery?” Dolores walked over to Victoria.

Victoria shook her head and said, “I will not be happy. Jeffery has done something wrong, but he sincerely treats Matthew as his family.”

She did not want Matthew to know the truth because she afraid Matthew could not accept it. He had always been respectful of Jeffery. Since Matthew was Jolane's child, Jeffery cared for Matthew as much as he cared for his sister.

Victoria saw how Jeffery treated Matthew.

She did not want Matthew to get involved in the past, which she could not tell whether it was right or wrong.

She was satisfied to see him from time to time as she did. She hardly dared to hope that she would hear from Matthew calling herself the mother in her lifetime.

“Where is Charles now?” Victoria suddenly turned around.

She could not watch Charles ask for trouble himself. She should persuade him for the sake of Nathan.

Dolores told her where Charles stayed.

Georgia had been to the Harris family's place once, and she thought that Victoria's approach was correct. They should not be entangled with the past since things had been concealed and had passed. It was more harm than good if they still brought up the past.

Matthew would be the most hurt person. He had always been respectful of Jeffery, who was his enemy. Matthew had always given short shrift to his birth mother and even hated her. How could he accept such a huge change?

How could he face it?

Victoria was afraid that Charles would disturb the peace.

“Go and have an early rest.”

Dolores said okay and turned around, and she walked out of the room.

Dolores walked out of the room while Matthew walked into the house from the entrance door at the same time. It just happened that Matthew saw Dolores coming out of Victoria's room.

His eyes shone with thought.

Dolores walked over to Matthew and took the coat in his hand, and asked, “Is Jeffery's injury serious?”

“He has a non-life-threatening injury, only with his arms broken. He has to recuperate.”

Matthew went up to the second floor after speaking. Dolores hung the coat before following Matthew up to the second floor.

Dolores pushed the room door and saw a straight figure standing by the bed. Matthew was unbuttoning his shirt and had his back to Dolores, “What you did in her room?”

Dolores closed the door after entering the room, “Simona was sleeping with her, so I went in to see Simona. Why? Can't I go to see my child?”

Matthew did not answer the question. He took off his shirt and tossed it onto the bed, then he unbuckled his belt and went into the bathroom.

Soon the sound of water came from the bathroom.

Dolores knew that there was still Dolores could not help but sigh, and she felt stressed because of knowing so much. How good if she knew nothing about it?

Dolores could put herself in Matthew's shoes and look upon all the problems that happened. She would not have so many troubles.

She had a headache once she thought about Charles's matter.

Dolores did not know whether she should tell Matthew about this. She was afraid that Charles would do something else if she did not tell Matthew.

Matthew was clever, and he would perceive something bearing on it.

Dolores looked thoughtful and did not know the sound of the water stopped in the bathroom.

“What are you thinking about?”

Dolores raised her head and saw...
