Snare of Love
Chapter 122: Let Me Hug You for a While

Dolores became silent as she thought someone was nearby.

But she then found that there was no one around; instead, the surroundings were quite quiet.

"What are you doing?" asked Dolores.

Matthew looked down at her, his eyelashes shaking slightly.

She was sitting on his thighs with a weird posture.

The posture was quite ambiguous.

Dolores' face immediately became red and even her neck was blushed. She looked like a cooked shrimp.

"You... You..."

Dolores reached out in an attempt to cover her face, but Matthew grasped her wrist with his palm and confined her movements.

His Adam's apple popped up and down and his black eyes flashed a trace of light, making it misty.

He chuckled and said in a husky voice, "You're gonna kill me, so I can't die with regrets."

Dolores' mind had totally gone blank.

She didn't react at the moment as she had lost the ability to think.

"When will you accept me?" His lips gradually approached hers and his breathing caused Dolores to shiver all over as if a torrent of electricity had pierced through her skin and spread to her legs and arms. Her eyes were tinged with a thin layer of tears.

"I don't know."

"But I can't wait anymore." His loving eyes were like the scorching sun in a tropical dessert that Dolores felt so hot and she couldn't replace a word to reply for a long while.

"If you don't say something, I would regard it as a silent approval."

One of his hand cruised all the way down to her waist along her spin...

A harsh light reflected from the rear-view mirror happened to dazzle Dolores, which caused her to be somber immediately. She pushed away Matthew and said, "Nope. I haven't gotten myself prepared. You've promised me that you'll wait until I accept you."

"But you acquiesced it just now."

Dolores was rendered speechless.

"I didn't." She then denied.

"There seems to be someone." Dolores saw a black car that was parked behind Matthew's through the car window.

But Matthew just thought she was replaceing an excuse, "Don't try to fool me."

Dolores wore a serious look, "I didn't fool you. It's a black car, and the license plate number is ZQ6668."

Matthew paused and then looked back.

It was true that there was a black car behind them.

His face darkened slightly. And the romantic ambience in the car cooled down a bit.

"You know the owner?" Dolores had noticed the change of Matthew's expressions.

Matthew confirmed with a nasal sound.

It was his father's car. How could he not know the car owner?

But why was he here now?

He buttoned Dolores' clothes and instructed her, "Stat in the car."

Dolores nodded.

After helping Dolores dress the clothes, he pushed open the car door, got off the car, and then walked towards the car behind.

"He's really Matthew." Victoria talked to her husband.

Jayden pulled a long face, "Why is he here at this moment?"

Why did he become more and more unruly recently?

Jayden originally intended to come out to replace Matthew alone, but Victoria was worried that they would come into a quarrel, so she came with him.

Thomas got off the car and greeted Matthew respectfully, "Young master."

But Matthew just ignored him and stared at the persons in the car.

"Are you free now?" asked Jayden.

Matthew replied nonchalantly, "Any matters?"

"Can't I come to see you if I don't have any matters." Jayden had always tried to have a clam and sensible talk with Matthew, but the reply he got from him was always an indifferent and cold look. Jayden would be angered every time.

Victoria grasped his hand to comfort him and let him not to be angry.

Matthew chuckled, "Do you have time?"

When Matthew was 20 years old, Jayden passed the company to him.

Since then, he had never bothered about any affairs in the company and had been courting this woman at home.

Matthew often thought that if his father and this woman gave birth to a child in the future, he would definitely let the child take control of the company.

Although Matthew didn't give a shit to this matter, he could by no means accept the fact that his father had fallen in love with the other woman.

His father brought this woman home less than one month after his mother's death.

Apparently, he had cheated his mother with this woman before her death.

"What's your attitude?" Jayden furrowed his brows.

It was really hard for Jayden to remain calm in the face of Matthew's blatant sarcasm.

Victoria stole a glance at her husband and sighed helplessly. This pair of father and son had always been eyeball to eyeball.

She pushed open the door and got off the car, and then said in an extremely humble manner, "Landon Herbert came to our home to replace your father because of a piece of news." "Don't intervene in my affairs." Matthew left after finishing the words.

"We're just caring about you." Tears welled up in Victoria's eyes as she stared at his tall leaving back. She added, "Although the Herbert family is now in crisis, it has accumulated its reputation and social connections after all. If we really offend them openly, I'm afraid that they would do something bad to you."

But Matthew just kept moving forward as if he hadn't heard the words.

"Stop!" Jayden shouted sternly. He took a deep breath and then asked, "Which woman are you together with now?"

Matthew was frozen on the spot for a short while. He then turned around slowly and stared at the grey-haired man who was standing under a street lamp, "Have I asked you which woman were you together with?"

Jayden trembled violently because of anger, "It has been so many years. You should let go of it!"

"Since I haven't intervened in your affairs, please don't horn in on my own business either." Matthew didn't utter any harsh words this time, but his tone was so cold. There was no emotion in his words and it sounded as if he was talking to a stranger.

He turned around again after finishing the words. After taking two steps, he stopped and said to the man behind him without turning around, "As for the news, I know what the propriety is." Jayden felt sulky, "Go home."

Victoria didn't move. She just stared at Matthew's tall leaving back.

"Let's go." Jayden reached out to hold her hand.

He was confident in Matthew's ability and believed that he would solve the matter.

When Matthew took over WY Group at the age of 20, he was just a university graduate, but now Jayden felt proud of the achievements that he had made.

"I just want to have a look at him." Victoria wiped away the tears from her eyes.

Jayden stood by her side, held her hand and also stared at Matthew's back, "You should feel happy."

Victoria was still a bit upset. Yeah, she should feel happy now.

Matthew went back to the car and started the car without saying a word.

Dolores noticed that he was in a bad mood. She didn't raise any question and just sat by his side silently.

Matthew didn't know where to go and just randomly drove in the urban area. Dolores reached out and put her hand on the back of his hand.

She could resonate with him now.

Coral had told her about the grudges between Matthew and his father before.

And she saw the persons who got off the car just now. As Victoria had come to replace her before, she recognized him.

Dolores didn't have a poor impression of Victoria because she felt Victoria was different from other home-wreckers.

But she was a home-wrecker after all and was now Jayden's official wife.

"My father also cheated my mother. So I know how you feel now."

Matthew fixated his eyes on the back of his hand, spun the steering-wheel and stopped the car by the roadside. He reached out to hug her. When her warm, soft body felt into his embrace, he found his heart not that empty.

He put his head on her shoulder and whispered, "Let me hug you for a while. Just a while."
