Snare of Love novel Chapter 373

Facing Dolores’ questions, Matthew wasn’t in a hurry to explain himself. Instead, he leaned back on his car seat drunkenly. He squinted his eyes, as if he hadn’t heard clearly. “Hmm?” He mumbled.

Dolores pursed her lips, “He wants to set you up with that woman?”

This time, Dolores didn’t refer to Jeffery as ‘uncle’.

His actions today had crossed her boundaries.

Matthew moved his body, leaning his body back casually, “Probably.”

Dolores, “…”

Suddenly, Dolores stopped the car by the road. She turned to look at him, “You have nothing else to say to me?”

Matthew slowly raised his eyes, and met her angry gaze. His eyes carrying a tinge of laughter, and he asked, “What should I say?”

Dolores felt a little hurt. She didn’t ask much from him. On the issue of relationships, she had only hoped that they could trust each other.

She was willing to trust him.

However, on the basis of being responsible towards this relationship, shouldn’t he give her an explanation?

She really wanted to protect this relationship, but…

She retracted her gaze. She turned off the engine, “You drive back.”

She felt that she needed to calm herself down for a bit. She was afraid that she couldn’t control her emotions while being in the same room with him.

She got out of the car, shut the door, walked along the pedestrian pathway.

She raised her head, trying to let the breeze wake her up.

Matthew got off the car and chased after her. He clutched her arm, “Where are you going?”

Dolores tried to fling his arm away, but his hold on her was tight.

“Can I have some alone time?” She said softly, using up the meagre rationality that was left within her.

“Are you jealous?”

“No.” Dolores was quick to deny.

“Then why are you angry?”

“I’m not angry.”

“You are.”

Dolores looked at him, who was in a full black suit. His strong and straight silhouette could be seen clearly. At this moment, there was no hint of emotion on his face.

Was he seriously not bothered, and seriously not knowing why she was reacting this way?

“Yes, I am angry.” Dolores poked at his chest, “Do you know that I really value our relationship, not because of just our children, but because of this place…”

She increased her strength and poked at the position on his heart, “Because at this place, there is a place for you. I really want to trust you, and trust our relationship. Do you know that? Your attitude makes me very insecure, very uncomfortable, very afraid. I am afraid that this relationship is all my own imagination. I have seen Jessica’s failed marriage. Towards relationships, I feel as if I’m walking on thin ice. However, towards you, I feel like giving whatever I can to sustain this relationship. But now I realize, all this is perhaps just me blindly contributing on my own. Matthew, stop pretending to be nice to me. Let’s end this, this is not what I want!”

She used all her energy to fling away his hand, she only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. She was afraid she would lose even more control if she continued to face him.

She didn’t want to become a spiteful woman because of him. But at this moment, she had already become like one.

Matthew took a step forward and held her waist in his arms. Dolores kicked around in his arms, “Let go of me, let go of me…”

Matthew clutched her hands and pressed it on his chest, “Stop fooling around.”

At this age, he had never explained himself to anyone before.

He was not good at it, and neither did he care about it.

If people like to think of it a certain way, he would let them be.

“If I explained to you, does it mean that I have not done anything to betray you?”

His eyes were dark like a bottomless lake.

Dolores was taken aback. She later widened her eyes, what did he mean by this?

Her lips couldn’t help trembling.

“On the other hand, if I don’t explain, does it mean that I betrayed you?”

Matthew held her head with his palm, “Hearing you say all this, I am very happy.”

Not sure since when, Dolores’ eyes brimmed with tears, and she widened her eyes stubbornly.

“I have not done anything that is not loyal to you. I only like one girl. She doesn’t have an outstanding family background, she doesn’t have an impressive education, she is not the best among all the women that I have seen. But this is her, she has found a place in my heart. Sometimes I am confused too, why did I fall in love with such a woman?”
