Snare of Love novel Chapter 337

Charles White was speechless as her reason seemed to make sense.

“But as a son, if I’m indifferent to the harm he has suffered, won’t you feel that I’m heartless?” The reason why he was so obsessed with revenge was because Nathan White had raised him and given the White family to him who had no kinship.

He was grateful but in the meanwhile he was heartbroken as a man who was affectionate had lost his lover and was still being tortured. He felt that it was unfair.

Even if he knew City B wasn’t his territory, he still wanted to seek justice for Nathan’s past.

Victoria Forbis looked at Charles for a long time and she had to admit that he had a point. If a person could be indifferent when the person he cared about was hurt, then he was definitely cold-blooded.

“I’ve finished what I can say. I’ve no reason to stop you if you insist. Here’s City B, not White City and now they’re exposed while you’re hidden. After this matter, I’m afraid you won’t be smooth in the future.”

Charles understood well that this time it was he who had planned this road accident as Jeffery Harris and Matthew Nelson didn’t know that he had come to City B. Once either one of them knew his identity, it would be difficult for him to make a move again.

His gaze became deep, “I can’t let myself to have regrets.”

Victoria could see that he had made up his mind. She couldn’t convince him with a word or two, but could only let him do it.

The only thing she could do was to keep him after thing was unmasked for the sake of Nathan.

She stood up, “I should go now.”

He didn’t move and didn’t say anything.

She twisted the handle and was about to open the door when Charles called out to her, “My adoptive father hopes me to marry your daughter.”

She paused and looked back at him.

At the same time, he turned his wheelchair towards her.

“You had a child and I would like to know where your child is now. If it is a girl, I would like to follow my adoptive father’s last wish and marry your daughter.”

Her fingers which were holding the handle kept tightening, “I’ve not given birth to a child …”

“Impossible!” He said with finality. If Victoria hadn’t given birth to a child, how could Nathan propose his wish for him to marry her daughter?

There’s only one answer which he knew that she was pregnant, but he didn’t know if she was carrying a boy or a girl. He thought that she might be carrying a girl because only a girl could marry him, so he left his last wish.

She was panicked for a moment and quickly calmed down, “I married into the Nelson family later and I’ve never given birth in my life.”

Charles looked at her keenly and stated his guess, “Matthew is your child.”

Her heart sank, “Do you have proof?”

“No, I can’t find out what happened back then, but there is something that can’t be faked, such as why my adoptive father would give you up? He could have stay unmarried in his life for you. What was the reason that made him give you up? The reason was simple as you had a child with another man and he had to let it go even if he was reluctant and even if it hurt his heart. He could only let it go as he knew how important a child was to a mother. You may not love the man who got you pregnant at that time, but you would have stayed for the sake of the child …”

“I don’t want to hear such speculation again!” She interrupted him, “Go back to White City.”

“Forgive me for being unreasonable.” He apologized, “Since I’ve come, I won’t leave easily. Even if I do, it’ll be after I’ve served my purpose.”

He could be sure of his suspicion when he saw her evasion, but what he lacked now was evidence.

If he could find evidence to prove that Matthew was born to Victoria, then it would be easy to deal with Jeffery again and he might even be able to pull in a helper.”

After all, she had also been imprisoned for six years.

She stared at him. For Nathan’s sake, she wanted him to leave City B unscathed, but if he insisted on getting into his mess, she couldn’t condone it.

She would never tolerate anyone to reveal this secret as she knew very well who would be the most hurt if this secret came to light.

“Don’t blame me for not warning you. If I find out that you’re looking into the previous matters, I’ll not let you go even if you’re not Nathan’s adopted son.” After saying this, she opened the door and walked out.

She had come to see Nathan without telling anyone, so she didn’t use the car at home, but took a taxi to come here and stopped the taxi at the entrance of the hotel to go home.

Dolores Flores was having dinner which Coral had specially prepared for her. Matthew had instructed her to make something to nourish her body, saying that she was in poor health.

Coral had specially prepared sea cucumber soup without putting anything in it, so it didn’t have much flavour.

The sea cucumbers were whole and looked a bit creepy.

She served three or four sea cucumbers into her bowl, “It contains iron, vitamin B and folic acid which help to nourish blood.” She leaned closer to her and said with a smile, “I’ve heard that eating sea cucumber is good for beauty and skin care.”

Although Dolores was pretty now, she still had to maintain it well.

Dolores scooped it up with a spoon, “I can’t finish it either as it’s too much.”

“You’ve to finish it. The young master said you’re in poor health, so he asked me to prepare it especially for you.”

This kind of sea cucumber wasn’t those artificially cultivated in the market, but this is pure wild which all of them are over eight years old. As we know, sea cucumbers have a long growth period and the wild ones are fished by the fishermen who go to sea themselves. They usually mature between five and nine years. If the fishermen get a sea cucumber that is less than five years, they will throw it back to the sea and let it continue to grow.”

Cultivated sea cucumbers matured once a year and it could be seen from the age as the effect of a one-year and a multiyear sea cucumber wasn’t the same.

Moreover, wild sea cucumbers grew naturally on the seabed, eating algae and shells from the seabed. Various essences accumulated in its bodies over a long period of time, making them to be rich in nutrients.

On the other hand, cultivated sea cucumbers ate artificial feed and ripened in a year, which weren’t good for human body and there were even many hormones that were harmful to our bodies.

As its price was high, there weren’t many wild sea cucumbers left after being caught in large quantities and most of them on the market were artificially cultivated.

Those that were older and pure wild were few and far between.

Could she refuse this goodwill?

Even if it was bad, she still bit the bullet and ate it.

Victoria heard what Coral said as she entered the house, then lowered her eyes and hung up her coat.

In fact, she should be happy that Matthew was treating Dolores well, but she still felt a little bit envious and jealous.

She had never enjoyed this kind of treatment before.

She walked in, “Why’re you eating at his hour?”

She had left early in the morning and didn’t know that Dolores woke up late.

Dolores lowered her head, “I slept late last night to draw a design, so I got up a little late.”

Victoria didn’t think much of it because she was thinking something in her mind. She looked at Coral, “You can go.”

Coral understood, “There’s no food at home, I’ll go to the supermarket now.”

As she said, she untied her apron and left the room.

Another maid was watching the workers trim the greenery and lawn outside. This thing would happen every month as those flowers and plants were growing out of shape without trimming.

Dolores put down the spoon in her hand, “You’ve seen Charles?”
