Snare of Love novel Chapter 58

“Huh?” Dolores looked at him while changing her shoes. “You don’t have any class on weekend, aren’t you going to rest at home?”

Samuel replied solemnly, “Simona is at home too. I don’t think there’s time for me to rest.”

Dolores knew the fact that Simona was a clingy child.

She helped her son to put on his coat and brought him to her workplace.

Her son was very quiet, so he wouldn’t trouble her much.

If it were Simona, she definitely wouldn’t agree to bring her here.

That child was exactly what a normal child should behave in this age. Regarding her son, she didn’t know whether Samuel’s maturity was a good or bad thing.

She lifted her son up and kissed him on the cheek.

Samuel slightly blushed and said in a shy manner, “Mommy.”

Dolores smiled. Her son looked so cute when he was shy.

She picked Samuel up and placed him in the car. Then, she fastened his seatbelt.

When she arrived at LEO Corporation, Dolores parked her car. She hugged Samuel out of the car, held his arm and walked inside together.

“Ms. Flores, the guests who made an appointment with you last time has arrived.” said her assistant, Theresa. “I’ve taken them to the reception room.”

The guests had already booked an appointment last month to customise a wedding gown.

Dolores designed several versions for her guests to select. She let Samuel to play by himself, “Don’t run around.”

“I know.” It wasn’t his first time here, so he was familiar with the surroundings. The staffs here liked him very much too.

“Make two cups of coffee and serve it to the guests.” Dolores checked on the designs again. There was no error, so she took the designs and walked to the reception room.

She pushed the door open. A couple was sitting on the leather sofa by the window. When she saw their faces, Dolores stiffened for a moment before her voice recovered. She had a pleasant smile on her face, as if she didn’t know them at all, “Hello.”

She calmly walked in with the designs.

Helen, no, it should be Maria now. Maria’s face suddenly turned pale. How could it be her?

She instinctively looked at the man sitting next to her.

Matthew gave a persistent stare at the woman who walked into the room.

After six years, she had already put everything down.

She just wanted to live a quiet life now. These people, had nothing to do with her.

Dolores walked towards the sofa and sat in front of them, as though she didn’t know them. She wore a black suit and elegantly crossed her legs. She put the designs on the table, and pushed it to Maria, “These are the scheme designs, have a look at it.”

Maria could obviously feel the chills of the man beside him.

If she knew that Dolores was the famous designer, she would definitely not choose LEO Corporation.

She insisted to choose LEO Corporation back then, so she couldn’t go back on her words now.

She could only force herself to pick up the designs and flipped it open. Her hand trembled slightly. Every design had its own unique characteristics, especially this gown named Initial. It was a pink coloured, strapless and wasp-waisted gown. The design was simple, but elegant.

She didn’t want to recognise Dolores’s design, but she really liked this gown.

Theresa came in with two cups of coffee. She bent down, and put the coffee in front of them. Dolores looked at her, “Theresa, could you bring the finished product of Initial here?”

“Okay.” Theresa took the serving tray and left the reception room. Soon, she came in with a model. The model was wearing the wedding gown called Initial.

This gown was even more breath-taking than it was in picture. The specially handled silk fabric of the gown gleamed, especially when light reflected on it. The strapless collar embodied the ideals of sexiness and elegance in women. This gown was wasp-waisted, accentuating the slimness of her waist. She looked modest and conservative in this gown.

There wouldn’t be a more suitable gown for her engagement than this one.

Maria stretched out her hand to feel the material of the gown. It was soft and smooth, and she felt comfortable just by touching the material.

“This gown is Ms. Flores award-winning work. There were a lot of people who wanted to buy this gown, but Ms. Flores was reluctant to sell it. You have such a good taste to have chosen this gown, since Ms. Flores happen to have decided to sell it.” Theresa said proudly.

Matthew’s eyes were on Dolores’s face, while her gaze was on the gown. She looked at him once when she came in the reception room. Until now, she hadn’t taken a glance at him anymore.

She treated him like a stranger, as if she didn’t know him?

He was tight-lipped.

Maria raised her head. She was no longer the helpless orphan. Right now, she was the young lady of the Herbert family, so what if Dolores became a famous designer?

Dolores still had to design her wedding gown and watched her getting engaged to Matthew.

Maria felt much better as this thought, so she arrogantly said, “Why is it called Initial?”

Dolores looked down. When she designed this gown, she thought of her initial dream to become an outstanding designer, but she couldn’t complete her studies due to some unforeseen events that had happened. Later, she had a chance to complete her studies. After she joined LEO Corporation, she designed this gown.

This was her debut work, inspired by her initial dream. Hence, this gown was named Initial.

When it came to her work, she could always talk confidently with a gentle smile on her face, “In my opinion, everything that happened initially was beautiful. It seemed to me that when everyone was still young, they always had something that they wanted to do. I called it the initial dream. When you first fall for someone, the initial feelings that you have are definitely the sincerest. Am I right, Ms. Herbert?”

She took a quick glance at Matthew, and fixed her gaze on Maria, “It’s just like Ms. Herbert and Mr. Nelson’s love. No matter what storm you may face, you are destined to get back together, back to initial point where the both of you fall for each other...”

“That’s enough!”

Matthew interrupted their conversation abruptly. He stood up suddenly, stepped in front of Dolores and grabbed her wrist.

Dolores frowned, “What are you doing?”

Matthew didn’t utter a word, but he directly pulled Dolores out.

“Matthew...”

Matthew turned around, showing his gloomy eyes which seemed like a warning. Maria dared not speak anymore. She was afraid, and she could only remain silent.

Dolores tried to break free from his hold, but Matthew’s hand was too strong. She couldn’t escape at all, so she sternly said, “You’re hurting me!”

Matthew couldn’t care less about her struggle and dragged her to the stairwell. He pressed her to the wall. His anger spiked as he deadly stared at the woman in front of him, “Why are you hiding me?”

Dolores frowned. Why did she hide?

She had never hidden him on purpose, although she didn’t want to see this man.

It was just that her circumstances at that time, Sampson told her that the medical conditions here were suitable for her to have a labour surgery.

She was injured so badly that she had no choice but to follow Sampson’s arrangement.

“What do you mean, Mr. Nelson? We had already divorced. Whatever I do now, has nothing to do with you.” Dolores tried to calm herself down.

Actually, her heart wasn’t as calm as it seemed.

She didn’t want to admit that this man who appeared in her life for a short moment, made her calm heart flutter.

Her heart had not felt this way for so many years.

Hence, she didn’t want to get involved with her past anymore.

Haha!

Matthew sneered, “Divorced?”

He let go of Dolores and took a step back. He stood two steps away from Dolores and looked over at her. In six years, she had changed. She became much prettier. Her black ponytail was neat and clean. She looked extremely professional with her attire and words. He laughed, “Are you certain that we have divorced?”

Dolores’s heart jolted after hearing his words. That day when she was rushing back to apply for the divorce certificate, she had a car accident. After that, she was immediately taken here by Sampson.

Their divorce certificate hadn’t been applied at all...
