Snare of Love
Chapter 311 Bring You to Meet Someone

Armand walked to the green area outside the inpatient department. Then, he stopped with Phoebe standing behind him, "What do you want to tell me?"

"To confess everything with you." Armand turned around. He looked at this woman who was once familiar. Although it was still the same face now, he felt strange.

He used to feel familiar, but now he found that he did not understand her at all.

He always felt that he could not see through her, as if she had hidden many things inside her heart.

"You shall understand that by the time you chose to leave, we're over. It does not matter what's your reason, you left, meaning that you had given up on that relationship. You'll only make me despise you when you pester so much now. I think it's better to leave something nice for you and me. You don't have to come to the hospital in the future. I hope you will keep your promise and don't bother my life again." Phoebe did not expect that Armand would be so determined.

Inwardly, she was lost. The man who once loved her had changed. He did not love her anymore and no longer took care of her emotions. He only wanted to get rid of her now.

She clenched her hands into fists. She laughed softly, "Are you really so desperate, not even thinking of the love you once had?"

"You also said it was love that had passed, the past has become history to me." Armand was emotionless.

It was true that he had let go of the past.

He thought he had not let go, but when he saw her, he realized that he had let go.

There was no resentment and no complaints.

Phoebe bit her lip. She thought she could easily win him back by coming back this time, but she did not expect that Theresa would appear out of nowhere and disrupt her plans.

She had relied on Armand to give her happiness for the rest of her life. She was not young anymore. She understood that although she had never married, her body had lost the tightness she once had. It was impossible for her to marry a man who was from good background and rich.

Moreover, she was infertile. Many men could not accept this fact, not to say the one who was handsome and rich.

"I shall not come back." Phoebe left after saying the words. She stopped after two steps, "I wish you happiness, in the future ... I won't appear in front of you again."

Phoebe knew very well that if she wanted to win back Armand, Theresa had to take the initiative to leave. By then only she could have a chance to get him back as it was obvious that Armand would not leave Theresa now.

It would be better to leave a good impression on Armand first. She would plan again.

She had gained many experiences being a mistress. She had a lot of means.

The corners of her lips curled into a grim smile.

Her straightforward manner made Armand a bit uncomfortable.

But this was the best.

After Phoebe left, Armand did not go back to the ward but walked towards the main entrance. There were many breakfast shops outside the hospital. He thought that Theresa would definitely be hungry when she woke up. Furthermore, his grandmother had to eat as well. So, he went to buy some breakfast before going back.

When he went back, Theresa was still sleeping, but Mrs. Leslie was awake. Her eyes were half-opened, as if she was conscious. Armand quickened his steps, "Grandma, are you awake?"

Mrs. Leslie was trying to speak but she could only make a whooping sound. Her words were not clear. When Mrs. Leslie was in a hurry, her voice became even hoarser and harder to hear. Armand put down the things in his hand and held her hand to soothe her, "Grandma, don't worry, it's okay. The doctor said that you will slowly recover, you just need to rest well."

"Whoop Whoop..." Mrs. Leslie tried to speak, but when she opened her mouth, only a whooping sound could come out. It was completely without any syllables, making it hard to hear what she was saying. Armand patted her hand soothingly as he gained insight into Mrs. Leslie mind and asked, "Do you want to ask about Theresa?"

Mrs. Leslie nodded her head.

Armand told her to look at the sofa. When she looked up, she saw Theresa lying and sleeping on the sofa. Mrs. Leslie was relieved as Theresa did not leave. However, she was nervous immediately.

She was afraid that Armand will lose Theresa because of Phoebe.

"Whoop Whoop..." She wanted to tell Armand that Phoebe might not be as innocent as she looked, so that he must not fall into her trick.

But at the moment, she was not able to say it out. Her face was red as she was suffocating.

"You don't be emotional." Armand soothed her, "Don't worry, I won't let Theresa leave, you can't get agitated now."

Mrs. Leslie clutched Armand's hand tightly, hoping that he would keep his promise and would not do silly things.

In the morning, the doctor came over to ward round, Mrs. Leslie needed to be treated slowly. She could not be cured in a hurry. After the surgery, all her indicators were within the normal range. He told Armand to take good care of her.

After the doctor left, Armand took out the breakfast that he had bought, "You must be hungry, right?"

Mrs. Leslie nodded.

Armand raised the head of the bed and put a cushion behind Mrs. Leslie so that she could lean back comfortably. Then, he picked up the bowl and fed her the porridge spoon by spoon.

After breakfast, Mrs. Leslie was a bit tired. She had just undergone an operation so did not have much energy. Armand helped her lie down, "I'll stay here to look after you, you can sleep in peace." Mrs. Leslie closed her eyes. Without even a nod, she fell asleep in a short while.

Theresa did not show any signs of waking up.

Armand asked the nurse to keep an eye on them. He wanted to go back to his house and change his clothes.

The smell of alcohol still overwhelmed him. His clothes were wrinkled. He could not stand the smell on his clothes.

He thought that Theresa would not wake up in a short time. He would go back and come back as quickly as possible.

On the other hand, Matthew did not have his breakfast in the morning. The 'dumplings' he ate last night had tormented him.

Dolores saw that he was fully dressed. She leaned against the door to look at him, "Are you going out today?"

The company was on holiday. There was no need for him to go to the company. Dolores thought he would be wearing casual clothes and rest at home.

It was a rare moment of leisure.

Matthew stood in front of the dressing mirror. His delicate features were deep and quiet. He stopped his hand which was buttoning and slowly raised his eyes to look at Dolores who was standing by the door through the mirror, "Later on, I'll bring you to meet someone."

Dolores stood up straight, "Who is it?"

She had a vague suspicion in her heart.

Matthew's relative was over there. Although Jolene had passed away many years ago and Jayden had remarried, it was New Year now and there would definitely be some visits.

"You'll know when you go there." Matthew turned around with a smile and looked at her, "Why do you look nervous?"

Dolores pretended to be relaxed, "I am not nervous."

Matthew walked over, his gaze lingering on her face for a minute, his dark eyes were deep. He reached out to pinch her chin and rubbed his fingers, "Do you know that I was very sad last night?" Dolores froze and quickly understood what he was referring to. She had served him a huge bowl of dumplings because she wanted to help Victoria.

In order not to disappoint the two children, he had finished eating them.

Dolores bit her lip, "If you're willing to give in, I won't..."

"In the future, don't interfere with our affairs." Matthew gave her a light peck on the lips, "If this thing happened again next time..."

He smiled lightly, "I'll punish you."‒‒‒‒‒‒
