Snare of Love novel Chapter 25

Dolores paused when she saw them and Beulah also raised her eyebrows.

“Mom, isn’t that Dolores? Why is she here?” Annabelle wasn’t able to suppress her anger as well as Beulah could, “She was here to eat?”

The food here was delicious, expensive, and not a place for regular folks to dine at. How could Dolores dine at this place?

Beulah scoffed, “She married into the Nelson family. Although that person is a cripple, his societal status and wealth are genuine. It should not be any surprise that she can patronize this kind of place.”

Dolores didn’t want to be entangled with them and wanted to walk away but Annabelle blocked her path.

“You just married a cripple. Even if you can come to this high-class establishment, you’re nothing but an unpresentable bum.” She looked at Dolores’ dressing from top to bottom as she said and laughed sarcastically.

“Step aside!” Dolores said coldly.

Annabelle didn’t, “What’s the hurry? Are you ashamed to marry a cripple?”

Abbott frowned and was about to respond to Annabelle’s blocking of Dolores’ path when he saw Matthew walked over and quickly retracted his hand.

“Dolores, why are you still so shabby after marrying into that wealthy family? Is it because even that cripple despises you?” Annabelle laughed sinisterly as she said, “Don’t take after your mother who can’t even hold onto her man.”

At this point, Dolores also saw Matthew walk over and couldn’t help but stare with her eyes wide open.

Annabelle noticed the change in Dolores’ expression and thought that she was angry and escalated, “Dolores, this is your destiny. You were abandoned by your father in the first half of your life and dumped overseas to fend for yourself. Now you need to serve a cripple for the rest of your life, bearing a life of burden…”

“I’m afraid I have to disappoint you.” A deep and manly voice was heard. It was soft and impressive but not to be underestimated.

“Who do you think you are…” Annabelle turned and saw a man standing nearby. He was wearing a well-tailored slim-fitting business suit. He stood upright, especially the pair of slim and long legs. He held his head up high and his lips were sexy with dashing chiseled looks. His eyes were profound, lofty, and cold.

He walked over firmly and with each step, it chilled the hearts of those watching. His indifference and depth of silence highlighted his nobility. He walked over with a sacred aura that glared everyone’s sight. Annabelle was shocked with her jaw opened.

He, isn’t he a cripple? She was stunned in disbelief. How could this be possible?

Under the judgmental eyes of Annabelle and Beulah, he placed his arm over Dolores’ shoulders, “Let’s go.”

Dolores was stunned for a couple of seconds, looked up, “You…”

His gaze deepened slightly and gently smiled affectionately, “What’s wrong, silly?”

Annabelle stared at his legs until her eyes were ready to pop out of their sockets, “Aren’t you crippled?”

She cupped her mouth after saying seeming to realize that she had misspoken. Beulah was also stunned. It was unbelievable.

Matthew felt disgusted and left with Dolores.

Abbott scoffed, “Shallow.” And thereafter didn’t look at their stunned and obnoxious expressions. He walked quickly towards the car.

Beulah looked on with surprise and fear and her legs started to wobble, “How can that be? Matthew isn’t crippled?”

“What happened?” Annabelle lost her self-control and grabbed Beulah’s arm, “Why aren’t Matthew’s legs crippled?”

Beulah came to her senses after a while. Weren’t his legs unable to be treated?

“Mom…”

“Enough!” Beulah felt her mind rumbling with noise and was frustrated, “I wonder if your father knows about this?”
