"I am in love with Theresa."
When everyone arrived at the restaurant at breakfast time, Armand hugged Theresa in his arms and announced.
Theresa was not used to his intimate behaviour and struggled in his arm. Armand leaned forward and warned in a low voice, "If you don't want to be exposed, then behave yourself."
Theresa had no choice but pretended to be a lovey-dovey couple with Armand.
“Tut, tut.” Boyce clicked his tongue, "What the rapid progress!”
Theresa still disliked Armand when they were having a drink last night. How come they suddenly became a sweet couple in a night.
It was clearly a lie.
Boyce obviously doubted what he said. Matthew knew that Armand was pretending by just listen to what Dolores said.
But he was too lazy to reveal the truth.
He carried Simona Flores and sat at the table to feed her daughter.
He didn’t care what happened to them at all.
The only thing that mattered was his daughter.
Boyce knew everything deep down inside, but he didn’t tell anyone about that. He sat at the table and watched Matthew gently feeding his daughter. Uncontrollably, his mouth was moving and he was about to laugh. Before Simona was here, he had never seen such a gentle expression on Matthew’s face before.
Was this considered parental pampering?
At this moment, that is the most descriptive phrase for Matthew.
"Simona". Boyce took a boiled egg, "Do you need me to peel the egg for you?"
Simona shook her head and fell into Matthew’s arms, "No, my dad will peel it."
Boyce blinked and felt like he was abandoned in a night. Matthew had a wife and children. He had a family of four. Her daughter was cute and lovely while his son was smart. Other than that, his wife was beautiful and was much younger than him, who was considered as the pampered wife.
Now even the "playboy" Armand was seriously in love, he was still single!
Was he abandoned?
He is sitting next to Samuel Flores. They were the only two men who didn’t have a partner.
Samuel didn't understand why he wanted to sit so close to him and put the peeled white-boiled egg on his plate.
"Boyce, this is for you," Samuel said.
Boyce’s serious face was rarely filled with warmth. He realized that he was not abandoned, there were still people who cared about him.
He took it and took a bite of it, "Thank you, Samuel."
Samuel looked at him as he smiled and said no, "I saw you alone and you look miserable."
Boyce was speechless, "..."
In an instant, he felt like the boiled egg in the mouth had spoiled.
Dolores also remained sceptical and wondered whether what Armand said was true or not.
"Why do you think Theresa came with me? Because we are in love so I brought her here. I think today, the sun is shining and the weather is glorious, it's indeed a good day, so I choose to tell you that Theresa and I are in love today ".
Armand said very seriously and energetically.
Dolores kept her mouth shut about what he had said. As the saying goes, "Everything could be damaged except for one’s marriage" and just say, "Since you have decided then forgot what happened before and treat Theresa well."
Theresa immediately felt embarrassed and lowered her head, "Lola, I ... did not deliberately hide it from you ..."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's eat first."
She will not blame Theresa, she was an adult, she must know what she was doing. The only thing she worried about was that Armand was going to hurt her.
As they hadn’t known each other for a long time. Armand was so frivolous that Theresa might get hurt by him.
Theresa patted Armand’s hand and walked towards Dolores, "Lola."
Dolores put her arms around her shoulders and they sat together at the table. She told her not to stress. Just do what she wanted in love.
Theresa did not dare to look directly at Dolores as she felt guilty.
Because she and Armand were not in love.
Matthew held Dolores’ hand under the table," Each man has their own destiny."
He didn't want Dolores to worry too much about other people's affairs.
He put a glass of full cream milk in front of her, "Drink it up."
Dolores understood what she meant. In fact, she did not want to intervene but worried about her due to their relationship. She picked up the glass of milk and drank it up.
"Mommy." Simona handed the egg that Matthew had peeled to Dolores, " This is for you”.
The girl raised her little hand. She took the 'white ball' in her hand and sent it to Dolores’ mouth.
She was such an obedient girl.
Dolores bit the egg in her daughter's hand. It was nothing more than the taste of an egg, but out of no reason, the taste of the egg was especially good today.
She touched her daughter's hair. She didn’t realize that there was some egg yolk sticking at the corner of her mouth. Matthew took out the napkin and wiped the corner of her lips.
Dolores felt awkward. As there were so many people, she stretched her hand out and wanted to clean herself. But then she accidentally made eye contact with Matthew.
She thought of what he said, that was, to be a lovey-dovey couple outside, she then withdrew her outstretched hand.
She let him help her clean her mouth, Simona fell into Matthew’s arms and giggled. She liked the way her father treated her mother.
She felt so happy.
Armand was dumbfounded after seeing this, he took a long swig of the glass of milk. He gulped down the glass of milk and said. “Could you guys not act lovey-dovey bright and early Boyce might have a hard feeling as he has not been in a relationship before at such an age.”
After speaking, he himself chuckled.
Boyce looked at him in disgust, stood up after taking the last bite of the egg.
Samuel followed him and stood up, "I finished the meal either."
"Come. Let me lead you out of here" The more it went, the more Boyce felt that the boy was similar to him.
They walked towards the door and met Charles White who was coming here.
Dolores stopped, "Why did Mr White come?"
"I'm here to find Miss Flores." There was a slight smile on Charles’ face again.
