Snare of Love novel Chapter 92

When she recalled that he had betrayed her, Maria felt very infuriated.

Was his love towards her an illusion?

How could he betray her and stab her in the back?

Maria stood by the door and her steps were shaky, “Sampson...“

Sampson walked towards her and discovered the bruises on her knees. He frowned while asking, “Have you gotten into a fight with someone?”

If not, why did she end up looking like this?

Maria shook her head as she stared at Sampson, “Sampson, is your love towards me fake?”

“How could that be?” Sampson really loved her as his sibling. Her disappearance in the past was somewhat his mistake too, so all the while he had been living with guilt, and now that he was able to retrieve her, all of his feelings towards her were never fake.

Suddenly, Maria launched into a fit of laughter, but all of a sudden all traces of her smile evaporated. She then let out an exasperated scream, “If you really love me and see me as your sister, why did you betray me for that woman’s sake?”

“What are you talking about?” Sampson was confused by her words. “Come in first.”

He pulled along his sister who was losing control of herself. Due to the fact that her marriage had been cancelled recently, Landon was especially unhappy about that. There was a dark cloud hanging over the house.

If Landon heard that she was throwing a fit again, he would no doubt be enraged.

Maria was dragged into the house by Sampson.

“You sit down first. I’ll go get some ointments to disinfect your knees, so that you won’t get infection.”

Maria looked like she didn’t understand a thing as she continued to sit there motionless and her gaze was focused on a spot in space.

She thought that by becoming a part of the Herbert family, she would be able to be together with Matthew, enjoy her high status, and possess a lover and also an affectionate brother.

However, things couldn’t be further from the truth.

Everything had changed. Yes, she did have a prestigious status now, but she had lost Matthew, and at the same time that woman was channelling away part of Sampson’s love towards her.

Dolores had ruined her love life and family life.

Her fingers slowly buried themselves deeply into the bed sheet, and veins could be seen bulging on her skin. She was really enraged now.

Sampson carried a first-aid kit in and then proceeded to clean and disinfect the wounds on her knees. He was doing all this with the utmost care, as if he was afraid of causing pain to her.

“Sampson.” Maria was looking downwards. “Are you this gentle towards Dolores too?”

Maria was really abnormal today.

“What are you trying to say?” Sampson placed the disinfectant in his hand onto the floor and decided to have a conversation with her about this matter.

“Maria, it’s not like Matthew is the only man in the world. You don’t need to dwell on him for too long. With your traits, you can find a better...“

“Dolores is not the only woman in the world, so why do you still love him so much?” Before he could finish his sentence, Maria suddenly interrupted him.

Sampson couldn’t find any words to refute her.

She was right. While he was trying to persuade her sister, he had forgotten about his own stubbornness.

“Sampson, you could betray your own sister for the sake of the woman you love. Your love is really profound.”

He could no longer ignore her anymore since she kept repeating the same thing, “Maria, have you met her?”

“Yes.” Maria admitted. Sampson couldn’t help but frown, “You have been accusing me of betraying you. Can you elaborate on that?”

Did this have something to do with Dolores?

“You’re asking me this?” Maria sounded very sarcastic, “Are you not aware of what you have done?”

“I don’t know what you are referring to. I never mean any harm to you in the first place.” He was sure that he had never wronged his sister.

When he found out that Matthew was that man from that night long ago, he had tried to selfishly conceal this fact from Dolores. Later on, he learnt that Maria was his sister, and she loved Matthew, so this prompted him to hide this truth even deeper in his heart.
