Snare of Love novel Chapter 149

With a second thought, Dolores believed it was reasonable - Maria wasn’t young. Since she wouldn’t marry Matthew, there should be other men. The marriages in such rich or noble families were always connected to interests. Probably she would have another marriage for convenience with another famous family.

With that thought, she didn’t feel weird that Maria had bought the wedding dress.

“Lola.” Mrs. William walked over.

Dolores put away the thoughts in her mind, looking at Mrs. William. “Yes, Mrs. William?”

The lady pulled her hand. “I’m going home now. Please take care of this branch. LEO Corporation is my work for a lifetime. Please try your best to guard this brand for me.”

“I know.” Dolores knew the importance of LEO Corporation to Mrs. William. “I’ll treat it as my lifetime career, protecting and defending it.”

“I trust you.” Mrs. William hugged her and gave her a cheek kissing. “Take care of yourself.”

“Can’t you stay here a bit longer?” Dolores tried to make her stay.

For this lady, Dolores didn’t only take her as her boss, but also a family for whom she had gratitude for receiving her help and encouragement.

“I still have something to deal with back home, and I’ve been staying here long enough. It’s time for me to go back.”

“I’ll give you a ride,” Dolores asked Theresa to give her the car key.

Mrs. William laughed. “How could you drive in a dress?”

Dolores lowered her head and took a glance at her dress. She laughed. Reaching out, she lifted the hemline of the dress and tied a knot in front, and her straight legs were exposed. “I can drive in this way now.”

Mrs. William still laughed, rubbing her hair lovingly.

Dolores walked out of the store with Mrs. William. Theresa and Allison walked them to the door. Dolores looked back. “I’ll drive Mrs. William to the airport and ensure she’ll board the plane safely. Please take care of the rest matters here. Thanks.”

“Sure. No worries.” Allison gave her an OK gesture and waved at her.

After seeing Mrs. William off, Dolores went back to the store. Everything was well-arranged by Theresa and Allison. On the sofa in the reception lounge, a man was sitting.

Seeing Dolores walk in, Terry stood up. He complained, “Lola, we’re friends now, aren’t we? Why didn’t you invite me over for the opening ceremony of your store today? Although I’m not wealthy, I can come here to support you, can I?”

“I didn’t mean to do it. I’ve forgotten, really,” Dolores answered apologetically.

Terry knew that she was not that kind of snob woman, so he didn’t take it seriously. The purpose why he came over wasn’t to question her but for the matter of the cassation. Matthew asked him to delay it, and he didn’t understand, so he came over to ask her.

“About the car accident, what are you thinking about now? Aren’t you in a hurry? Why is it delayed? Don’t you know the longer it has been the less beneficial was for the case?”

Since the last time when Matthew asked her to leave the case to him, she hadn’t asked. If it weren’t that Terry asked, she had almost forgotten about it.

She sat down on the sofa, rubbing between her eyebrows, having a migraine.

“Are you not feeling well?” Terry asked with concern, “I shouldn’t have asked you, should I?”

“Not really.” Dolores shook her head. “I’ll ask him what’s going on when seeing him tonight. I will ask him why it’s delayed.”

“Sure.” Terry could tell that Dolores was in a bad mood. “I’ve got to go now. Call me if you have any news.”

“All right.”

After Terry was gone, Dolores and Theresa started to sort out the orders received today. Since they were not running a clothing shop, which depended on the sales of the orders, they would design and made the clothes for the customers upon their requests.

Certainly, the cost here was far higher than that of an ordinary clothing shop.

Ordinary people couldn’t afford their clothes.

Since Theresa needed opportunities, Dolores gave one of the orders to her.

She gave the other one to Allison.

Allison refused. “The customer appointed you as the designer purposely. I don’t think I should take it over. Besides, I don’t need this order to present my capability.”

Looking up, she said proudly, “I’m quite famous already. I don’t need an offered opportunity.”

Theresa kept silent because she did need such a chance.

She loved to design.

“Okay. I’ll give both orders to Theresa, then.” Dolores passed the customers’ information to Theresa. “Work hard.”

“But-” Theresa didn’t think it was appropriate in this way. She couldn’t occupy both of them. After all, Dolores had provided her with a lot of chances.

“Don’t hesitate. I’ll show the design drafts to the customers first. If they are happy with them, I’ll tell them that they are designed by you. Since they’ve already approved, they wouldn’t object.” Dolores had already thought about how to introduce Theresa’s work to the customers.

“But...”
