Snare of Love novel Chapter 77

Samuel looked back.

He saw the man standing beside the handbasin. Drying his hands in an elegant way, the man raised his eyes lazily, “Not tall enough?”

Samuel raised his head. Though he was much shorter than the man, he could not appear weaker than him.

“I am not peeing.” He couldn’t acknowledge in front of this jerk that he was not tall enough to pee into the urinal.

Matthew threw the tissue that was used to dry his hands into the dustbin. He glanced at Samuel, “Are you sure that you don’t need my help?”

“I don’t.” Samuel answered firmly with his head raised high.

“Fine then.” Matthew rolled up one sleeve of his shirt, showing half of his robust arm. He put his hand into his pocket and looked at the urinal. Then he checked the height of Samuel, “You got a spine.”

Samuel pursed his lips hard, and sweat was oozing from his forehead. His little body was trembling.

He could hold it no longer.

But in front of this humbug, he could not show weakness, let alone ask him for help.

He clenched his little fists tightly and tried his best to hold it.

Matthew raised his eyebrows slightly and leaned against the mirror beside him. He wanted to see how long this boy could hold it.

Though Samuel was little, his temperament was not.

“Can you tell me why you are so hostile to me?”

Samuel was angrier. He abandoned his mommy already. Why did he kiss his mommy?

The humbug had no right to do that. He would find a man who was way better than him for his mummy.

“You hurt my mommy. And you think I didn’t see it?” Samuel glared at him.

He wished to glare a hole in Matthew.

“I hurt him?” Chewing these three words in his mouth, Matthew thought in his head when he saw him hurting Dolores. He had only met her twice.

When they first met, Matthew gave her a big “surprise”.

Matthew squinted his eyes. Was Samuel talking about the time in LEO when he dragged Dolores away and kissed her in staircase? He saw it. So...

So!

Matthew straightened up and walked two steps forward. He squatted down before Samuel and

their eyes were level. Matthew glanced at Samuel’s legs which were closed together and smiled lightly, “I did hurt her. What are you going to do with me?”

Samuel’s eyes opened wider. He wanted to devour Matthew with his mouth.

Because he was so angry or that he was trying his best to hold his urine, Samuel’s whole body was trembling.

“If you beg me, I will help you. How about that?” Matthew stood up and dusted the bottom of his coat which was already flat, “if you don’t need my help, I am leaving?”

Samuel couldn’t hold it any more.

With tears almost coming out of his eyes, Samuel tried hard to keep his eyes open, “Please, please don’t go. I need...”

“Who did you come with?”

“My mummy and my grandma...I am about to pee.” Poor Samuel said with his eyes all red.

Matthew stopped teasing him and walked to him, “Take off your pants.”

Samuel moved quickly and took off his pants.

Matthew stood behind him and carried him up. He walked to the urinal and bent to a degree which made it easier for Samuel to pee into the urinal.

After Samuel finished, he said, “Thank you.”

Matthew froze. He didn’t expect that this child could say “thank you”, so he was surprised.

Samuel put on his pants and looked at Matthew, “For me, kindness and hatred are clearly distinguished. You helped me, but it doesn’t mean I will forgive you.”

“...”

Forgive him?

What did he do that required his forgiveness?

After they got out of the bathroom, Matthew lowered his head and looked at Samuel, “Which private room are you in?”

Samuel rolled his eyeballs. Why did he ask him this? Was he going to hurt mummy again?

“Six.”

Matthew paused and looked at Samuel. This little kid was quite alert.

“I should go.” Samuel felt like his lie was detected and dashed away.

He was just back and he met the humbug. As the saying went, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road.

After he made sure that nobody was following, Samuel leaned against the wall and raised his wrist, using the telephone watch to call his teacher for help.

Soon he got through to his teacher.

“Teacher, I met the humbug.”

“Em.”

Samuel told him the whole thing that happened between him and Matthew.
