Soon a message came and it was from Abbott. He lowered his head to look at the phone.
Message: KS Club did not have a security camera in the room for customers’ privacy. Only the corridors were fitted with cameras. These photos were about Ms. Flores.
Message: Maria came here before last night.
What Abbott said was veiled but it was clear to Matthew that what happened to Delores had something to do with Maria. In other words, what happened to Dolores was plotted by her. Dolores knew that Maria harbored ill intentions against her and she should be wary of her so as not to fall into her trap.
He clicked on the video with a heavy heart.

The thumbnail of the video appeared quickly. Dolores was stumbling and running along the corridor. She was flustered and panicky.
“Lola…”
Very soon he saw who was running after her. Sampson!
His expression changed and his gaze turned cold and he muttered, “You’re something!” You brother and sister were so daring! They collaborated to harm her.
Samuel was terrified as he thought that Matthew was referring to him. He was clearly terrified but he wanted to pretend that he was fearless. As soon as he spoke, he betrayed his own emotions and stammered, “Don’t, don’t, don’t think that I’m afraid of you!”
Matthew glared at him, “Boy, your mommy had been bullied. Do you want to seek revenge?”
Samuel blinked, someone bullied mommy? Apart from him, who else would bully his mommy?
“Do you think that I’m a three year old kid? I won’t be fooled.” Samuel continued to raise his head proudly.
He was five years old. He was two years older than a three year old kid and could not be easily fooled.
“Come over.” Matthew signaled to him.
Samuel stood still, looked at him cautiously, and remained silent.
Matthew narrowed his eyes. How did Dolores teach this child? He was still young and so suspicious of others.
“I won’t lie to you.” He clicked on the video and showed Samuel, “See for yourself.”
Dolores could be seen as soon as the video was opened. Samuel looked at the video with his eyes wide open. Mommy… When he watched the video to the end, he fumed and clenched his fists tightly. Who bullied his mommy? Very soon he saw who the person was and his eyes glared even wider that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Matthew kept his phone but Samuel reached forward to grab it. Matthew raised his hand so that Samuel couldn’t reach it even though he tiptoed.
He looked down at the boy, “How? Do you want to go with me to revenge your mother?”
Samuel fumed angrily as he stared at Matthew.
“Think carefully. You are a kid and even if you want to seek revenge, you don’t have the abilities.” Matthew kept his phone and opened the car door. He seemed to have thought of something and looked back at him and said, “Oh yes, your mother was truly with me last night and we slept on the same bed. She even said that she wants to have breakfast with me.”
Samuel was on the verge of breaking down and almost cried. Had mommy gone mad? Didn’t she know not to go back to him?
“Last night I saved your mommy.” Matthew decided to stop agitating him.
Samuel felt better after hearing this. So mommy wasn’t insane after all.
“You, you said that you will revenge my mother. Is it true?” He glared his eyes and looked at Matthew.
Matthew calmly looked at him for a couple of seconds, “Really, but…”
He squatted down to look at Samuel in the eyes. Samuel behaved himself like never before and quietly looked at him. His hand moved but he was very worked up as Matthew was his father. How nice if he had not abandoned them. They could have lived together as a family. He and her sister won’t be teased for not having a father.
“You need to help me pursue your mommy,” Matthew said.
Samuel was speechless. He was remarking to himself since he liked mommy, then why did they divorce and leave her? Why did he cause her to be so pitiful? After she gave birth to him and his sister, she had to raise them under the criticisms of others.
Samuel pursed his lips tightly, “Do you still like my mommy?”
They must have married because he liked mommy but perhaps he liked someone else or don’t love mommy anymore and that was why they divorced. Now he wanted to pursue mommy again, did it mean that he loved her again?
