Snare of Love novel Chapter 206

Seeing that it was Matthew, Samuel felt even more anxious, not sure whether it was because he had done ‘something wrong’.

“Why are you here?”

Matthew walked in, and ignored his question. He sat next to his bed, Samuel just wanted to move away, but was instead hugged by Matthew on his shoulder, “Do you really not like me?”

“No.” Samuel quickly denied.

“I know everything that you’ve done…”

“What are you talking about I don’t get it!”

Before Matthew finished his words, he was already cut off anxiously by Samuel.

His small hands that were on the bed clutched his bedsheet tightly, the clean and crisp bed-sheets became crumpled.

He had done everything so discreetly, how would Matthew know anything?

Matthew ruffled his head, “You are using Charles to fight with me for mummy, right?”

Samuel’s eyes widened, his small face wrinkled, his features twisted comically. How would this guy know that he had used Charles to fight with him for mummy?

“You are my son.” Matthew said seriously.

He had heard from Charles that Dolores and him were divorced when they were born, and hence he had immediately knew it was Samuel who had told Charles this.

Dolores wouldn’t have said these things, what’s more there were not many people who knew this, even Boyce and Armand didn’t understand the details of it.

Samuel pursed his lips and stayed silent, but he was obviously agreeing silently.

He could hide from everyone, but he couldn’t hide from Matthew.

Perhaps they were connected by blood, their way of thinking was on the same wavelength, so they could be easily guessed by the other party what he wanted to do.

“Are you angry?” Samuel lowered his head, twisting his fingers.

Matthew lowered his gaze and looked at his actions, his lips lifted slightly, “I’m not angry, I’m just comforted, that you know how to use others to achieve your aim, this is good.”

Samuel almost dropped his jaw, what?

He almost stared at his father with an unbelievable gaze.

“The highest stage of achieving your goals, is that you didn’t participate in it at all, but achieved whatever that you wanted to. Even though you didn’t do it in a very clever way, and was found out by me. But by having these ideas, this means that you’re not too stupid.”

When Matthew was saying this, he looked particularly serious. But when he looked closely at the corner of his eyes and his eyebrows, it can be realized that they carried a hint of laughter.

Samuel was only five years old, and could think of all these, and carried them out, this was considered very smart.

The reason he didn’t praise him obviously was to let him know that all these weren’t enough.

If he praised him obviously, he was afraid he would be too proud.

Samuel gave a huff, unhappy about Matthew’s judgment on him. Everyone that had interacted with him would say that he was smart and adorable, and loved him to bits, why was it that when it reached his lips, it had become not too stupid?

Not too stupid?

Did this mean that he was the smartest among everyone stupid?

He decided not to admit to the comments by Matthew, “Of course I’m not stupid, do you want to make a bet?”

Matthew nodded, very interested in his son’s suggestion, curious to see what he had to say, “What do you want to bet?”

“Bet that you won’t chase mummy back.” Samuel raised his head, angered by Matthew’s ‘not too stupid’.

Humph, he swore, he won’t let him chase mummy back so easily!

This man was too full of himself!

Matthew pursed his lips tightly, after looking at him for a moment, he opened his mouth, “You really want that cripple to be with your mum?”

Samuel retorted, “A cripple is at least better than a heartless person.”

Matthew was rendered speechless.

Was he saying that he was heartless?

“Son…”

“I’m tired.” Samuel was chasing his visitor out, obviously not willing to continue listening.

To prevent Matthew from continuing to talk, Samuel dived into his bed, covered his blanket, and closed his eyes, pretending that he had fallen asleep.
