Snare of Love novel Chapter 155

In Herbert family’s villa…

At this time, the whole Herbert family had almost gone to sleep. The lights were dim in the huge yard. It was pretty quiet around it. Occasionally there would be a rustle of leaves blown in the wind.

Boyce walked up to pull Matthew, afraid he would be too impulsive. “Although you’ve come here, I’m afraid you still can’t find Dolores.”

“So you want me to wait? The longer we wait, the worse the situation would be with her.” The red blood-shots gathered in the center of his pupils, glowing with bloodthirsty red.

Maria used to attempt to kill Dolores by an accident. If this time she was taken by Maria, he couldn’t think about the consequences at all. Now all he could do was to force the Herbert family to hand over Maria.

Boyce was taken aback. He gradually released Matthew. He had never seen the panic on Matthew’s face. He whispered, “What’s a friend for? Leave this tough job to me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Boyce kicked the gate with a loud “bang”.

Creatures around were woken up immediately.

Landon was sleeping soundly. He was woken up by this loud noise. Camilla got up and turned on the lamp on the nightstand. “What was the sound just now?”

Landon didn’t move. He half-closed his eyes, looking quite sleepy. He was unhappy for being woken up by the loud bang. He answered in a dizzy, “Must be thunder.”

After finishing his words, he continued to sleep.

Camilla didn’t think so. It was sunny during the daytime. How could there be a thunderstorm at night?

“Stop wondering. Go back to sleep. I don’t think someone is kicking the door.”

Camilla agreed with him after a thought. It was midnight and there shouldn’t be anyone. No burglar should have the guts to break in.

Thanks to the high technology nowadays - the fireproof and theft-proof system was quite advanced.

Camilla turned off the lamp and lay down again. She tugged herself in the quilt and slept leaning against Landon.

“Are they a pig family?” Boyce kicked the door much heavier than just now.

“Bang!”

Birds were also shocked, and a huge group of them flew to the sky.

Boyce had practiced martial arts.

He was quite strong.

“It’s not thunder.” This time Camilla heard it clearly. She got up and turned on the lamp on the nightstand. “The sound seemed to come from the gate.”

Landon also got up, the quilt falling to his belly. “How could there be someone in the mid of the night?”

“Let me have a look.” Camilla stood up and walked downstairs. Warner had already got up. Seeing Camilla, he asked, “Did you also hear the big noise at the gate?”

Camilla nodded.

“Go back to sleep, please. I’ll go have a check.” Warner walked to the gate while putting on a jacket. He opened the door of the house and walked out. There were lights in the yard, the light of which was dim, not so bright. He could see some figures faintly. He fastened his paces.

He walked to the gate, pulled the security lock, and opened it. Before he could recognize who was standing there, he got a kick unexpectedly. He had to take a few steps back but still, he fell on his hips.

Boyce was about to kick the gate again, but the gate was opened unexpectedly.

So his kick landed on Warner’s body.

Covering his belly, Warner was furious. Nobody would feel good after being kicked so suddenly.

“Who are you? Do you have a death wish? Do you know where you are? How dare you make trouble here?” Covering his belly, he stood up from the ground, gazing at the two figures standing against the light.

Boyce walked out of the shadow.

Warner saw his face clearly, frowning. “How could it be you?” He squinted. “Think you are a policeman so you can intrude into my house and bully me? You are breaking the law. You deliberately break the law. Do you want to lose your job?”

Boyce sneered. “I’m just enforcing the law impartially.”

Warner knew Boyce’s identity. Upon hearing his words, Warner started to be uneasy, wondering what he meant.

Boyce was different from an ordinary person. He could adjust to the actual situation pretty fast. He pulled out the cell phone and played a video clip in front of Warner. “This is your sister, isn’t she?”

Warner took a glance - the person was wearing a mask. However, from the figure and the eyes, the person did look like Maria.

“Are you kidding me?” Warner wouldn’t admit it naturally. “The person is wearing a mask. How can I know if that’s my sister or not? I can say that’s your sister instead. Don’t venomously slander others!”

Boyce had predicted that he wouldn’t admit it after watching the video clip. He said in an official tone, “Your sister went to visit a woman named Beulah Shawn in the jail, and the woman was dead. Now we suspect it was your sister who has done it. We’ll take her back for the investigation. Please ask your sister out.”

“Boyce Shawn, stop playing the tricks. You just got a video clip and now you want to slander others, don’t you?” Warner didn’t admit that it was Maria in the clip.

“Since it is not her, call your sister out to confront.” Boyce didn’t give up at all.

“Now everyone is sleeping. You are disturbing the residence.” Warner looked quite calm on the surface, but inwardly he went panicked because of Boyce’s words.

He couldn’t help wondering what Maria had done again.

“What now? Do you want me to make a splash and inform everyone that another murder appeared in the Herbert family?”

It was indeed a threat.

The Herbert family looked upon their dignity and reputation very much. Sampson’s incident hadn’t passed yet, now if another murder was found from this family, they would be in big trouble.

“Wait here.” Warner turned around and walked into the house.

There was a big fight at the gate, so Landon had already come downstairs.

“What’s going on?” Landon pulled a long face.

“Call Maria Herbert to come downstairs!” Warner yelled at a confused servant. He didn’t calm down, but instead, he became more and more furious.

“She’s only good at making trouble, isn’t she?”

“What has she done again?” Landon squinted, holding the handrail of the stairs with one hand.

“Boyce Shawn said she was involved in a homicide.”

“What?”

Landon’s body shook. He became even angrier than Warner. Pounding on the handrail heavily, which made his palm numb, he snapped, “What a bitch!”

He regretted why he would have recognized her.

Maria was woken up by the servant. Still, in the pajamas, she looked at the annoyed Warner and Landon and asked, “What happened?”

“Are you asking me?” Warner sneered. “They are outside. Go out to explain yourself.”

Maria was extremely calm. “I’ll go. Besides, Warner, calm down. How could you be so pissed?”

“Enough!” Landon yelled at her in anger. “It’s better if you have nothing to do with this matter. If you made trouble again, I’ll break your legs.”

“You wish to beat me to death, don’t you?” Maria sneered, turned around, and walked to the gate.

It seemed that she didn’t respect her father at all.

“Dad, look what attitude she has!” Warner blushed in anger.

“Am I not angry?” Landon was panting. “If I had known that she always makes trouble. I would have strangled her when she was born. Well, I would never let her be born.”

Hearing Landon’s irritating voice, she curled up her lips.

She had been disappointed in them long ago, but she still felt sad when hearing those words.

Sure enough, the interest was the most important for those rich families.

Family affection? Flesh and bones? All were bullshit!

The night was dark.

Maria went to the gate, looking at the two men standing there. Although they were against the light, she still recognized Matthew who was standing in the dark.

She couldn’t see his expression clearly, his face in a blur.

She guessed that he had known that Dolores was missing, so he came to question her despite his public image and the time, didn’t he?

Did he like that woman so much?

Suddenly, Maria burst into laughter.

Boyce frowned. “What are you laughing at?”
