“I am free,” Dolores said without hesitation.
If she could persuade the master to follow her back to City B, it benefited her business.
Furthermore, she also wanted to settle the issue as soon as possible and brought her children back.
“Okay, I will arrange it,” Charles smiled.
Matthew showed a discontented expression.
He did not drink any water when eating. If the children were not there, he would bring Dolores to leave because he did not want Charles to know that he did not have a normal marital relationship with Dolores.
After eating, Charles looked at Matthew, “Thank Mr. Nelson for your treat today.”
Matthew stared at him coldly, “You’re welcome.”
Charles found that Matthew was not happy since Dolores agreed to meet the master that excelled in making tea silk. He would like to stir up trouble. He looked at Dolores and said, “I will pick you up at the hotel tomorrow morning.”
He glanced at her legs when talking, “Wear flattie tomorrow, the master lives in a remote area, the road was not that smooth.”
“I know it,” Dolores did not thank him for reminding her because she knew that he said it purposely. She turned to look at Matthew. Surely, he showed a worse expression.
Obviously, Charles said that purposely.
“Mommy, hug me,” Simona stretched her arms and wanted Dolores to hug her.
Matthew hugged her waist, “Daddy hugs.”
Her leg was injured, not sure whether it was badly injured or not.
Simona curved her lips, “I want mommy hugs.”
She did not see Dolores for a long time, she wanted to stick to her mother.
“Good girl,” Matthew kissed her daughter’s forehead,” I will buy something delicious for you later.”
“Really?” Simona asked.
“Yes.”
“Alright, then daddy hugs me. But I want to sleep with mommy.”
Samuel held Dolores’s hand and looked at Matthew, he said, “Mommy, I also want to sleep with you tonight.”
Matthew was speechless.
Dolores agreed without hesitation, “Okay.”
She missed her children too after she was separated from them for so long.
They went upstairs. Dolores bathed the two children and changed their clothes. They rolled on the bed and played in their pyjamas.
Dolores wore the bathrobe provided by the hotel after bathing because there were no clothes for her there.
“Mommy.”
The two children rushed towards Dolores after she went out of the bathroom. Dolores hugged them, three of them hugged each other. Simona looked up, “Mommy, if you want to play hide-and-seek again, you must bring me. I don’t want to separate from mommy again.”
Dolores hugged her daughter tightly and promised that she would not leave them again.
Outside of the house, at the end of the corridor, Matthew stood in front of a French window. The riverside could be seen through the window. The bright light and faint pearly lustre reflected on his face and reflected back. His contour was dark and blurry. His back was straight and wide. His waist was thin, he did not have much flab. It connected with the compact hip, the outline was balanced and fit.
He put one of his hands in the pocket while another hand unbuttoned his clothes. He said calmly, “Don’t have any trace at all?”
Boyce shook his head, “No, I think he must hide now. If he wants to survive, he must leave here. If he still wants to take revenge, he must seek for appropriate timing.”
Sampson was missing. He was like a time bomb, no one knew when would he appear.
He was a dangerous person.
“We don’t have many people, just ask two people to trace him, the remaining stays,” there must be some people to protect his children and Dolores.
“Ok, I will arrange it,” Boyce left.
Matthew stood by the window alone and seemed to meditate. After a while, he took out his phone and called Abbott. He asked Abbott to find up Charles’s background and his business, the White Group. Abbott agreed.
After hanging up the call, he went back to his room.
He opened the door, he could see the dim lighting and it was a piece of silence.
The children were tired after playing, they slept in Dolores’s arms.
Dolores worried that they would not sleep well, so she turned the light off. There was only a dim bedside lamp on.
Matthew shut the door and walked in, he stood by the bed.
Dolores leaned against the bedside and lay on her side. The children’s head pressed her arm. Simona lay in her arms and put her hand on Dolores’s chest.
It was Simona’s habit.
He bent and lifted the corner of the blanket. Dolores’s legs were revealed. She did not sleep soundly, she could feel a sense of coldness. Then, she moved her legs subconsciously. Then, she opened her eyes slowly, she saw Matthew by the bedside. She wanted to sit up but the children slept on her arms. She did not want to move and disturb them. She asked him softly, “What are you doing?”
