Snare of Love novel Chapter 56

Six years later in A country…

The warm, yellow light illuminated the interior of the house.

A thin and slender shadow figure was busy in the kitchen, preparing dinner for the family.

Sampson Herbert sat on the sofa in the living room, staring at Dolores Flores, who was busy in the kitchen. Simona Flores crawled towards Sampson, "Uncle, do you like my mommy?"

Sampson jumped. Every time he heard that name, he would become very frantic. Dolores refused to accept his feelings toward her, only treating him as a brother.

These two kids both called him uncle.

But they were adorable.

With a pair of big round eyes, tender and white skin, just like spring; curly eyelashes, blinking like porcelain dolls.

Sampson picked up one of them and walked towards the kitchen.

He stood in front of the kitchen, "Lola."

Dolores glanced back and smiled, "Are you guys hungry? Dinner’s ready soon."

Sampson did not reply, only staring at his back emptily.

Six years ago, Dolores insisted on not getting anesthesia, keeping the baby. Sampson could only agree.

But, he had one condition, which was to leave the country and returning to A country.

Dolores agreed, and with the help of Sampson, they brought Jessica Lennon with them.

Six years passed.

"I’m going back to the country in a couple of days."

Dolores paused slightly, stirring the soup; the pain she felt six years ago was still haunting her.

She pretended nothing was wrong, didn’t turn back, "What’s happening?"

"So, my sister’s engaged," still staring at Dolores’s back.

She turned around; after giving birth to Samuel and Simona, Sampson told her he found his long lost sister.

Dolores had been happy for him.

"That’s good, you should go back." Dolores said.

Still gazing deeply at her, "She’s engaged to Matthew Nelson."

Bang!

The spoon on her hand slipped and fell down to the ground, breaking into countless pieces.

She hurriedly squatted down to pick them up, "He has nothing to do with me anymore."

Six years had been too long, she had even forgotten that man had existed in her life.

Now, she just wanted to take care of her two kids.

It was just that she was confused, wasn’t Matthew marrying Helen White six years ago?

How could it be Sampson’s sister now?

She looked at him as if a soundless inquiry.

Sampson looked back at her and pursed his lips, "Sorry, I didn’t tell you."

Dolores frowned, "What are you hiding from me?"

As soon as she said that, she thought of something, then widen her eyes and said her guess, "Helen is your sister?"

"Yeah." That year he helped Dolores to investigate that incident that night and learned about what happened that night from a hotel attendant there. He dug in deeper and found out that the role Helen played.

He never liked a dishonest person, just like Helen. It was just that coincidentally, Helen was also at A country, so they had ran into each other.

They had no interactions, but it was because she wore a suspender skirt, showing a green birthmark on her shoulder, which caught his attention.

His lost sister also had the same green birthmark on her shoulder.

To find out, he did an in-depth investigation of Helen. He found out that Helen grew up in an orphanage without her parents. At first, he was just curious about Helen, having the same birthmark as his lost sister. Naturally, he wanted to know more about her.

But when he found out she was an orphan, Sampson gave birth to a thought: she could be his long lost sister, so he started stalking her, collecting her hair sample and saliva to do a DNA test.

The result showed that she really was his sister.

He knew his sister’s secret, also knew that she liked Matthew Nelson.

He had been keeping this to himself, never telling Dolores, not even once.

Sampson put down Simona to play in the living room.

Simona nodded and ran towards the living room with her short legs, "I’ll wait for brother to come back, I want to play with brother."

"Hey, slow down. You’ll fall." Sampson tugged her, "Slowly."

Simona pouted, she was unhappy.

He let go of Simona and pinched her little nose, "Be good." He went into the kitchen, squatting beside Dolores, holding her hand, "Let me take care of you, okay?"

"I got two kids——"

"I don’t care…"

"I care." Dolores looked at him. She didn’t want to rely on anyone to take care of her children.

He knew that Sampson’s family would not accept her.

Plus, she promised Mrs. Herbert that she would never be with him.

She smiled and let go of his hand, "Go to the living room, dinner’s almost ready."

Sampson’s heart sunk. He might have seen her as his sister before, but these six years had long made him fall in love with this brave and stubborn woman.

He didn’t understand why she rejected him that harshly, leaving no chances for him.

"You like someone else, don’t you?" He guessed, "That man is Matthew, isn’t he?"

Matthew was the only man that appeared around her anyway.

"No!" She answered swiftly as if proving she was telling the truth, "If it wasn’t for you, I would’ve forgotten that person long ago."

"Then…"

"Mommy." Simona ran in and hugged Dolores’s neck, "Mommy, when are brother and grandma coming back?"

Simona came in and interrupted the conversation.

Dolores didn’t want to talk about the topic anyway.

She took a quick glance at the clock and picked up Simona with her arms, "School ends at 6:30, it’s 6:20 now, they’ll be back soon."

Dolores put her down, "Come, be good. The kitchen is dangerous." She held out her hands for Simona to see, "Look at mommy’s hand, are they dirty?"

Simona blinked hard with her big eyes, "Dirty."

"Then are you listening mommy’s word?"

"Yes."

Simona looked down and sad. Dolores sighed and planted a kiss on her forehead, "Mommy will give you a bath tonight alright?"

Simona’s eye shined, “Okay."

Dolores had no time to take care of her children as she needed to work during the day and study at night.

Jessica was the one who bathed them.

Her condition had been controlled through Sampson’s treatment. As long as she’s not provoked, she’ll be normal like others.

Jessica was able to take care of the children, giving Dolores more time to study. Dolores’s profession used to be a fashion designer. It took her a few years to get her diploma, successfully earning a place at LEO to work.

She was really talented in this area, winning many awards for the dresses she designed. She even designed a wedding dress for the daughter of Country A’s leader, which stunned the whole country. Now she was the chief designer of LEO, where she also owned some shares.

Jessica finally brought Samuel during dinner.

Samuel was around 5 years old, but he had an excellent memory and extreme calculation ability. He was very sensitive toward numbers. Dolores, of course, had to cultivate his talent.

But Samuel himself didn’t fail his talent, and surprisingly passed AC University’s exam.

AC was a world-renowned top college in the field of computing.

Electronic chips and processing systems that were developed here had long been popular in the world.

Compared to Simona, she has not much talent herself, just like an average child. She’s just cute and cuddly.

Seeing Samuel back home, Simona ran towards him happily, "Brother——"
