Snare of Love novel Chapter 834

Coral was quite worried about her, “You look so pale.”

Dolores turned her back to Coral, “I’m alright. Please receive the guests first.”

Coral could only agree.

After she was gone, Dolores collapsed on the bed. She could hardly believe it. She felt so uneasy, cold sweat oozing on her forehead.

She tried to calm herself down, keeping telling herself that the situation shouldn’t be too bad.

Picking up the phone, she dialled Matthew’s number.

The CEO’s office, WY Group.

Matthew, wearing a black shirt with a loosened necktie, was staring at the document in his hands. His collarbones could be faintly seen from the collar. His sleeves were rolled up. There were two piles of documents on his desk. Without raising his head, he asked the man in his office, “Haven’t you made up your mind yet?”

Abbott sat in front of the desk, lowering his head in silence.

“It’s just a woman. Look at you. Are you still a man?” Matthew closed the file and put it away. Then he picked up another file.

“You’ve got married, so now you can mock me. In the past, didn’t you chase after a woman all over the world...”

Matthew paused while browsing the document. He looked up and cast Abbott a casual glance. The latter became a coward immediately. Inwardly, he bitched about Matthew for being double-standard.

“Ahem... I was kidding. Haha...”

“Come back to work from tomorrow now. You should have enjoyed yourself long enough,” Matthew gave him an ultimatum.

Abbott was still spiritless, “Aren’t you afraid I would fail you?”

“No woman would prefer a useless man. If you have nothing, who wants to marry you?” Matthew directly asked him ruthlessly. Abbott was rendered speechless.

Abbott believed that Emma would definitely look down upon him in that case.

He nodded and stood up, taking the initiative to ask, “Anything I can do for you now?”

Matthew put down his pen and raised his chin, hinting that Abbott could take away both piles of documents in front of him.

Abbott gaped.

“You are oppressing me now, aren’t you?”

“I’m giving you a chance to show your performance.” Matthew shook his neck a bit.

Right then, his phone started vibrating.

He picked it up and swiped to answer. Then he heard Dolores’s hoarse voice from the other end of the line, “Matthew, please come home early today. I have something to tell you.”

Matthew could sense that something was wrong from her voice. He asked, “What happened, honey? Are you not feeling well?”

“Not really. Please come home early. I’ll be waiting for you no matter when you’ll come home.”

After that, she hung up the phone. Holding the phone, Matthew stared at the phone screen, slightly frowning. Then he put it down.

Abbott picked up the documents from his desk, “I must have owed you a lot,” he said.

Matthew curled up his lips and said, “I’ll give you a raise.”

Abbott couldn’t complain more as Matthew said so. He devoted himself to the work soon.
