Snare of Love novel Chapter 84

“So what’s your point?”

The pupils of Matthew which were as dark as ink shrunk suddenly, which was almost undetectable. His eyes darkened.

Out of consciousness, Coral held the picture more tightly.

“Did you, did you...Is it possible that they are your illegitimate children...”

“No.” Matthew stopped Coral before she could finish her sentence.

He had only had sex with a single woman.

It was impossible that other women would bear his children.

Bastards? How was it possible?

“Coral, aren’t we having dinner tonight?” Looking at the empty kitchen, Matthew saw nothing. The table was carefully cleaned and was as bright as a mirror. It could show the reflection of a person.

Normally at this time, Coral would be in the kitchen preparing dinner. Or maybe dinner was ready for him. But today it seemed different.

Dinner?

Coral’s mouth corner twitched, “You are still in the mood for dinner?”

“...”

“You lost everything. Are you happy now?” While talking, Coral put the picture back to the drawer. She didn’t plan to just let it go, she decided to dig into this.

Matthew frowned. What got into her today?

“Look at this house. Does it look like a home to you? It is big. But does it have vitality? Only an old woman doing chores and a bachelor in his thirties live in this house. What’s the point of having money?” Coral closed the drawer. She was angry and didn’t want to make him dinner.

But she couldn’t. So she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Matthew looked at Coral’s back, which suggested that she didn’t plan to just let it go. Then Matthew opened the drawer to get the picture. Because he never liked to take pictures, so he didn’t even remember this one. If Coral had not taken it out today, he would have totally forgot about it.

Matthew held the picture and observed it carefully. The eyes and the face...

Hum hum...

The phone in his pocket rang up. There was a moment when a face in his memory flashed across his mind, which looked a lot like the face in this picture. But the ringing interrupted his thought.

He put down the picture and closed the drawer. Then he took out the phone and answered the call. It was Abbott who called him about work.

While talking to Abbott, Matthew unbuttoned his shirt and walked to his bedroom.

Golden Bay.

Jessica made dinner and was about to ask Samuel to come have dinner. But Dolores stopped her, “Let him meditate on his own faults behind closed doors. If he doesn’t admit his faults, he won’t have dinner.”

“He is just a child. You have spooked him enough. Do you really plan to ban him from dinner?” Jessica disagreed with Dolores. Samuel was growing up. He couldn’t skip dinner.

“If he doesn’t admit his faults, he won’t have dinner.” Dolores didn’t explain but she was quite determined.

As for something else, she could let it go. But for this thing, she must hold on to it.

He was just a child now, and he was watching those disgusting stuff. What would he do when he grew up?

“Dolores...” Jessica still wanted to persuade her.

Dolores had made up her mind and rejected any persuasion. If she didn’t set up some rules now, it would only be more difficult for her to discipline him when he grew up.

Dolores carried Monica up, “Let’s go have dinner.”

Jessica stood on the spot and seemed to be thinking about what Dolores said. She still wanted to fix this.

Dolores turned around and looked at Jessica. She gave her the answer, “I am serious this time. Don’t think about pleading for him.”

Jessica walked to Dolores and asked in whisper, “Dolores, what did Samuel do to make you so angry?”

In Jessica’s mind, Samuel wouldn’t make big mistakes. Because that boy was smart and thoughtful.

So Jessica was surprised to see Dolores getting so angry this time.

Thinking about what Samuel watched and did, Dolores couldn’t speak it out, “Mum, stop asking. Let’s have dinner.”

Dolores sat on a stool and held Monica in her arms, feeding her rice.

Clearly, Dolores had no intention to explain more, so Jessica stopped asking.

After dinner, Jessica cleaned the table and Dolores took Monica to play in the neighborhood.

They had just moved in, so they needed to get familiar with the surroundings.
