Dolores's attitude was extremely tough, and she had already stated very clearly that she would still leave if he wasn’t coming over.
She was already mad at the fact that Abbott investigated her. Besides, Matthew threatened her with her children too. She was pissed, and now Abbott refused her request.
It would be weird to have a good attitude in this situation.
When Abbott heard her words, he dared not be absent.
He was so fast that he appeared at the door in less than ten minutes. He must be staying somewhere near the hotel.
When Dolores heard a knock on the door, she opened the door. Abbott was standing outside the door and smiling slightly, "Ms. Flores..."
Dolores ignored him. She turned into the room, pointed at the pile of medications on the table and told him how to use it.
Abbott frowned, “What did you say?”
Matthew was injured?
How was that possible?
Abbott obviously didn’t believe her.
Dolores didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, "If you don't believe me, go check him out yourself. I'm going back now."
She opened the door and went out after finishing her words.
Abbott stood by the bed and walked back and forth twice. He couldn’t help wondering how Matthew got injured.
At last, his curiosity took over his reason. He reached out his arm and pulled the quilt that was on Matthew, hoping to see what exactly happened. However, before he could lift the quilt up, the man with his eyes closed originally suddenly opened his eyes. "What are you doing?"
Abbott, "..."
“I, I heard that you got injured...”
Matthew slapped his hand away and looked around the suite. He was alone here, and he began to frown,” Where’s that woman?”
Abbott could see Matthew’s doubt and asked, "Are you looking for Ms. Flores?"
He remained silent, as if he had acquiesced to it.
“She called me this morning asking me to come over, and she left immediately.” Abbott was still staring curiously at him after he finished his words.
It was obvious that Dolores was here last night. Could it be that Matthew force himself on her, so she resisted and stabbed him?
The more Abbott thought of that, the more likely it was.
He was stabbed by this woman?
Abbott imagined the scene where Matthew was rejected by Dolores last night, and he couldn't help but laugh a little.
“What are you laughing at?” Matthew sat up.
“Nothing.” He quickly restrained his smile and said solemnly, "Mr. Nelson, how did you get hurt? Was it because Ms. Flores fought back last night?”
"..."
Matthew pulled a face, “Get out! Go get clean clothes for me.”
He was really rejected?
Abbott wanted to laugh.
He really wanted to see Matthew getting rejected.
There was still woman who could reject him?
Oh god. This was such a rare moment, too bad he couldn’t see it himself.
What a pity.
Matthew raised his blanket and got off the bed while wearing underpants only. His upper body was wrapped with gauze, and he walked gloomily towards Abbott, "Is it funny?"
Abbott opened his mouth and panted for breath. He shook his head decisively, "It's not funny, not funny at all. I'll get you some clothes."
He quickly turned around and ran away.
He was afraid that Matthew might seek revenge on him if he stayed there.
Matthew poured a glass of water and drank it. Then, he saw the chair by the bed. He seemed to have seen Dolores sleeping here at night.
It seemed that she was still talking to him, but he didn't hear her clearly.
He was already happy that Dolores stayed and took care of him before she left.
Dolores, who hadn't slept all night, went back home exhaustedly. The two kids were taken care of by Jessica well. She took a shower, changed her clothes, and went into the room to see her children. Simona was still asleep, pouting her pink little lips. Her cheeks were red and she looked just like a doll. Dolores gave her daughter a kiss on the face before she walked out of the room.
Samuel had already gotten up. He was washing his face and rinsing his mouth in the bathroom.
“You weren’t back yesterday, was it because of work?” Jessica came out from the kitchen with an apron and looked at his daughter.
Dolores felt guilty that she didn't dare to look at her mother. She turned her head and looked elsewhere, "Yeah, something happened in the office."
Jessica stared at her daughter's guilty face, "I saw you getting into another car after you returned yesterday."
