Dolores hadn’t expected that one of the reasons why they wanted to ruin her was that they were afraid that she would take revenge on them relying on the powers and forces of the Nelson family.
She hadn’t expected this before, but now the situation was different.
What they wanted to set up was not only she herself, but also the baby in her belly!
It turned out that her concession was just a symbol of being weak and easily bullied in their eyes?
“Even if you’ve heard it, so what?” Since the secret couldn’t be hidden anymore, Beulah decided not to continue the acting.
“Yep. Who do you think you are? You are abandoned by dad. You’re just a…”
“Why are you so noisy early in the morning? You… Why are you here?” Randolph originally intended to reprimand them, but when he noticed Dolores’ presence, he shifted the topic.
Dolores glanced over Beulah and Annabelle, and then fixated her gaze on Randolph, “You want the land of Repulse Bay, right?”
Randolph was stunned for a moment, “You got it?”
Beulah and Annabelle also fixated their gazes on her with great eagerness.
They seemed to be very shocked as Matthew treated her quite well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given her the contract of Repulse Bay.
Dolores noticed all their repressions. It looked like she had to assume Matthew’s authority as her own.
She pretended to be relaxed and her face showed the shyness and happiness that always appeared on the face of a woman who was in love, “What’s wrong with him gifting me something? We’re a couple after all.”
“Impossible!” Annabelle refused to accept this. She had been brainwashing herself that what she had seen before was just an illusion.
Matthew wouldn’t have feelings for Dolores!
Beulah grasped Annabelle’s shoulders and shook her head, suggesting her not to be excessively emotional.
If Dolores really had got the land of Repulse Bay, Randolph would definitely change his attitude towards her.
The Nelson family was quite powerful after all.
Undoubtedly, Randolph wanted to have some connections with the Nelson family and take advantage of these connections. In addition, Randolph’s company had encountered some problems recently.
As expected, when Dolores finished the words, a long-lost smile crept onto Randolph’s face, “Have you had breakfast? If you hadn’t, what about having breakfast here before leaving?”
Randolph wasn’t a person who always wore a straight face. It was just that he had never smiled at Dolores.
Dolores looked at Randolph, feeling bitter and sad. Seeing that he could still make use of her, he even changed his attitude towards her, right?
So in his heart, she was just a person whom he could make use of?
This was her biological father! How ironic!
“I’ve had breakfast. I’m just coming to inform you to pack up my mom’s dowries and my belongings. I’ll send you the contract tomorrow.”
After finishing the words, she turned around and went downstairs. Maybe the pain in her heart was sharp enough for her to forget the pain on her knees.
Randolph caught up to her, “Come back. You haven’t had a meal at home. Leave after having breakfast here.”
Dolores turned around and looked into his eyes, “What the heck do you want to do again?”
According to Randolph’s way of doing things, he wouldn’t care for her if he didn’t need her to do something.
Being seen through, Randolph decided not to conceal his intention and said in a much gentler voice, “Lola, the company was now having some problems. Can you please ask Matthew to help me solve them?”
Dolores retrieved her gaze, went downstairs with one of her hand on the handrail, and asked indifferently, “What happened to the company?”
“There was a collapse during the construction of one of the buildings we invested…”
On the one hand, the company was facing a lawsuit; on the other hand, it had brought a great impact on the company’s reputation.
The products that the company had invested in were all disgusted by the public.
The company was almost unable to take back the capital.
Even if Dolores gave the development rights of Repulse Bay to him, he would not have money to invest in it.
So the major concern, for now, was to solve the collapse accident.
If Matthew could help him quiet down the public opinions and use his personnel network to solve the lawsuit, he and the company would be able to get through this crisis.
Dolores glanced upstairs, “I can help you, but I have a condition.”
Randolph’s expressions froze. He seemed to have not expected that she would have the other condition and wondered what it was this time.
