Snare of Love novel Chapter 253

He had no time to care about how cold the water was, he only wanted to swim to her side as soon as possible.

Heaven and earth seemed to be upside down, and Dolores seemed to see Matthew swimming towards her. She wanted to wave her hands, wanted to scream his name, but her body couldn’t be controlled by herself. Her leg was as if being tripped over by something, pulling her down.

Matthew, Matthew…

Big gulps of water filled her mouth, drowning her words.

“Dolores ——”

He came out from the water to take a breath of air, then dived underwater to look for her.

Very quickly, he saw her legs being entangled by seaweed. She was struggling for her life, but still couldn’t get rid of them. He swam over quickly and hugged her. He pinned her head down and pressed down on her lips, trying to give her some air.

Dolores widened her eyes, as if finding the last straw that can save her life, and she hugged him tightly.

Matthew pushed her away and shook his head at her. He dived deeper underwater, to pull apart the seaweed that was entangling her legs.

When he hugged her in his arms once again, she had already lost consciousness.

She had been out of oxygen for too long, the breath of oxygen that Matthew had given her just now, was not sufficient to sustain her for long.

Very quickly, Matthew carried her back on shore.

“Daddy, Mummy.” Samuel and Simona were craning their necks on shore. Seeing Matthew carry Dolores back up, they yelled in excitement. Matthew instructed them to go back together, and the two children followed him obediently back onto the car.

Charles had wanted to come forward, but Matthew ignored him.

The traces on the shore had been obvious that Dolores hadn’t fell into the water by accident.

This place was suggested by Charles, and Matthew was now suspicious towards him.

Naturally, he didn’t want to continue talking to him. He hadn’t clarified this incident with him yet, and so Charles was also a suspect.

“Tom, go check on the CCTVs in the surrounding area.” Charles’ expression was also terrible.

This place was suggested by him, and now that Dolores had accidentally fell into the water, he had a responsibility to explain to Matthew about this.

Tom lowered his head, “I’ll do that now.”

In the car, following Matthew’s repeated resuscitation and chest-pressing, Dolores slowly woke up. In her eyes were a blurry watery trace, she couldn’t see clearly. The blurry face in front of her, was obviously Matthew.

She hugged him, she had been afraid just now.

This was her second time experiencing drowning, at the time she fell under the water, she was so close to death. She was so afraid that she would leave them just like that, and leave her two children.

“I, I’m so scared.”

Matthew hugged her, and kissed her wet forehead, “It’s alright, it’s alright.”

Both of them were thoroughly wet, Dolores was trembling in his arms. She was so cold, so cold.

“Turn up the heater!”

His breath, his anger, his angry growl, all felt as if charged with electricity, transmitted to her body. She could feel his fear, his self-blame. Dolores hugged him tight, this wasn’t his fault.

She had been too careless, she hadn’t let the bodyguards follow along, hence why this had happened.

Thinking back about what happened, when she had come back from buying fish feed and had bumped into Lacey. Dolores fell into his arms, and said softly, “It was not an accident, it was Lacey.”

Lacey had appeared in front of her then.

“Ms. Flores, can I trouble you to speak for a while?” Lacey still h ad the same honest-looking expression.
