Snare of Love novel Chapter 151

Subconsciously, Dolores hid her hand behind her back.

It was an extremely important matter for her, and she couldn’t be threatened by the other party all the time.

Particularly, it would do harm to her children at any time, and she couldn’t keep calm and do anything.

“Yes. It’s quite important for me.” She said firmly. “You can go in first. I’ll be right back.”

As she spoke, Dolores turned around and strode outside.

Matthew gazed at her rushing back, squinting. He always felt that something was wrong with her as if she was hiding something from him.

As soon as Thomas saw Dolores leave, he immediately trotted over. “Why is Mrs. Dolores leaving? Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are still waiting for her inside.”

Mathew frowned at him coldly as if he wanted to freeze Thomas.

Meeting his eyes, Thomas shut up immediately.

He knew that Matthew didn’t get along with Jayden and Victoria. Probably he was angry that they didn’t inform him ahead before coming over.

At the thought of it, Thomas explained to Matthew, “It’s for your own good when Mr. and Mrs. Nelson came over this time.”

Matthew is not in the mood to listen to him.

For his own good?

He sneered in his heart. Striding into the living room, he made the temperature around him drop, emanating coldness to others.

Thomas didn’t dare to utter a beep, following him in.

In the living room, seemingly there were never so many people gathering together, making the empty room lively.

Jayden was sitting on the host’s seat, and beside him was sitting Victoria.

Jessica was sitting with the two kids on the right side. Coral was standing behind Victoria. Seeing him walk in, everyone turned to look at him.

“Why did you come back alone?” Jayden spoke first to break the ice, his voice full of uncovered excitement.

Matthew sneered. “Who else do you want to meet?”

They were the father and son, but they were always like enemies whenever encountering each other - exceptionally hateful to each other.

Jayden’s hands suddenly clenched. Tightly holding the leather on the sofa armrest, he tried his best to suppress his anger. “Am I not your father?”

“I didn’t have a choice.” Matthew sat on the sofa.

Simona stared at Matthew pitifully. If it weren’t that Jessica pulled her to stop her, she would have thrown herself into his arms as soon as Mathew came in.

On the contrary, Samuel was extremely calm as if he knew what the elders of the Nelson family had come here for.

And he knew what was on the table.

“You-” Jayden didn’t want to get angry, but he always couldn’t keep calm whenever heard his son’s sarcasm.

Victoria held his trembling hand and comforted him, “Calm down. You have a more important matter.”

“If you want to do PDA, don’t do it in my house. I’m quite busy,” he said impatiently. When he was speaking, he looked over at Simona. The little girl didn’t cling to him today, which made him a bit uncomfortable.

It seemed that he had got used to the soft little bum who always pounced at him and asked him to hold whenever he came home.

“We have something important.” Victoria grabbed Jayden’s hand tightly, stop him from getting angry because of Matthew’s words.

Jayden took a deep breath several times to suppress the anger in his chest. Pointing at the folder on the desk, he said, “Take a look yourself. Give me an explanation after reading it. Don’t try to retort me. The evidence is here. Don’t try to hide anything from me.”

Matthew didn’t move.

The father and the son looked into each other’s eyes. In the silent confrontation, a smokeless war had begun.

...

The atmosphere became quite deadlocked.

“Daddy.”

It was Simona’s sweet call that broke the ice.

“Quiet,” Jessica reminded her, patting on her shoulder.

With reddened eyes, Victoria reached out to Simona. “Come over.”

Simona widened her round eyes, looking at Matthew and then at Victoria. Then she slid from the sofa and threw herself into Matthew’s arms. She muffled in his arms, “Daddy, didn’t Mommy come back with you?”

His anger, displeasure, and coldness were drowned in Simona’s call. Matthew restrained himself and rubbed her hair gently. “You Mommy will come back soon.”

“You bastard!”

Pounding the armrest, Jayden stood up in anger.

Earlier, Coral said that Matthew didn’t know that he was the father of those children, so he didn’t tell Jayden, either. It was all right since Matthew didn’t know it himself. However, Jayden heard the little girl call him Daddy, he misunderstood that Matthew had known it.

Hence, he thought Matthew just ignored him on purpose.

He wondered if Matthew still recognized him as his father.

Simona shivered in fear, hiding in Matthew’s arms.

Matthew’s big palm stroked her back and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid.”
