Snare of Love -
Chapter 550 You Want to Choke me to Death, Do You?
Dolores was speaking in a hurry just now and did not think deeply about it. The more anxious she was, it was harder for her to explain it and she just could not say anything. She had no idea how to explain to Armand that she knew the person Declan.
She also only heard the man from Matthew and he was just a person that she had never seen.
"Declan went to City C to look for her," Matthew spoke out of the blue.
Armand was in agitation immediately, "Why did he go and look for Dolores? Is it because..."
Armand didn't finish saying his words as he knew that Dolores was listening to him too.
Since Declan's matter happened due to Jeffery so he would mention Jeffery when talking about Declan's matter.
There was a resting area in front of them. Matthew let Armand drive in. Armand followed his instruction, he drove into the area and parked the car in the parking space. Dolores woke her two children up and let them get off to get some fresh air.
Amanda rubbed her eyes in a daze and told Dolores, "Mummy, I want to go toilet."
Dolores took a wet tissue to wipe her face. Soon, the little girl was awake, "I'll bring you there."
There were not many people in the rest area at night. She held her daughter's hand and led her to the toilet. Andrew had not totally woken up. He was lying in the car and did not get out of the car. Matthew opened the car door of his side and asked him whether he wanted to go toilet.
He opened his eyes slowly and shook his head. He said, "I'm a bit hungry."
"Come, I bring you to buy something," Matthew said.
He got out of the car, reached out and held Matthew's hand. He tilted his head and asked, "Daddy, when will we get back home?"
Matthew glanced at his watch and said, "Soon."
The main meal was not on sale at the place at that time. There were only some snacks, Andrew wanted to eat Kanto cooking, "Let's buy some for Amy and mummy too."
He spoke thoughtfully and then he added a sentence, "Daddy, are you hungry? Let's buy this for Armand too, he should be tired after driving for a long time."
Matthew stroked his head and felt relieved. He thought that it was a good thing that his son could always think of others.
After that, he also bought corn, dumplings and some drinks.
There were not many things to be bought there at night.
Armand came back from the toilet and then brought the dog out of the car to let it walk around. He stood by the car and did some exercise. His body had turned stiff after sitting for too long. "Armand." Andrew handed him the food that they just bought, "You can eat some to fill your stomach. Since you did not have your dinner, you be hungry now."
Armand reached out to take it. Then, he sighed, "You are much more humane than your father."
Matthew raised his head and looked over. Armand squinted with his mouth and kept quiet.
Andrew was eating a skewer of fish balls. It was soft and chewy. He found it delicious and then he handed it to Matthew, "Daddy, you try one too, it's delicious."
Matthew tightened the cap of the water bottle and bent over. Then, he bit off one fish ball and ate it into his mouth with his son's hand holding it. Just as Armand was about to ask him whether Declan was going to look for Dolores to take revenge, Matthew's phone rang. He took it out and looked at it. It showed the caller name, Boyce. He had texted him almost an hour ago and only now Boyce called him back.
He walked aside to answer his call.
"What happened?"
On that side, Boyce felt a little guilt and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't go to City C. I had some stuff to do here temporarily and my phone was left in the car so I just saw your message."
Matthew could understand that and he did not mean to blame him. He had his job to do and he couldn't be free all the time. He glanced at Armand and spoke to Boyce, "Declan had caught Theresa away." "What?" Boyce really did not expect it to happen and he could not figure out how Declan knew about Theresa. Even if he did, Theresa had changed her appearance, so how did he manage to replace her? "What's wrong? Did he kidnap her from City C? Why did he take her away?" Boyce asked.
Matthew also did not know about the details of it but it was not difficult for him to guess it out. Since Declan could kidnap Theresa, it meant that he must know about Dolores. It was sure that he was the one who did the photo thing. He must be trying to provoke the relationship between him and Dolores. Maybe he wanted to catch Dolores but he did not have a chance to do it. He could not replace her because Dolores had come to White City so he just caught Theresa after knowing her relationship with Dolores.
Basically, he had guessed the truth. However, Matthew did not know that Declan wanted to provoke and destroy their relationship but failed to do so. Then, he planned to lure her but his plan was also destroyed by Oscar. Finally, he had no other way and wanted to catch her. He had found out the place that Dolores was staying so he managed to send photos to her.
He asked John to get some people to kidnap her. However, Dolores was not there. Thus, they only managed to catch Theresa. They might think that since Theresa lived with Dolores, the relationship between them must also be very close.
When he investigated Dolores, he knew she had a friend, Theresa with her. However, Theresa had changed her appearance now so John just assumed Theresa was another friend of Dolores.
"What can I do now?" Boyce was a little chagrined. He felt that if he had gone to City C, maybe Declan would not manage to do that.
He felt sorry for Armand.
"Come to the villa and wait there for me at six o'clock." He predicted that they could be back to the villa at that time.
Boyce said yes.
After the phone was hung up, he walked over. They were still standing and eating in front of the car. The hood was used as their table.
He walked in and he was surprised to replace that food was getting more and more.
"Mummy had bought some too," Andrew explained to him when mentioning his confusion.
Dolores did not know that Matthew had already bought something to eat. Thus, she also bought some food because she also felt a little hungry. Maybe she was pregnant and her baby was growing bigger, she just felt hungry when she didn't eat something.
Almost all of the few types of food were bought repeatedly. Dolores placed a piece of dried bean curd into his mouth, "You eat some too. There is too much food here and it is such a waste if the food can't be finished."
Matthew was speechless.
He thought that she was worried that he would be hungry. However, it turned out that she was afraid to waste the food so that was why she gave him food?
Dolores didn't know that he was thinking that much in his mind. She placed the dried bean curd closer to him and pressed it against his lips. Then, she spoke in a commanding tone, "Eat it.”
Matthew opened his mouth and ate it. Before he swallowed it, Dolores fed him another string of crab meatballs, "Open your mouth."
Matthew was speechless.
He even hadn't finished eating it.
"Hurry up, we have stayed here too long. You have to eat quickly." Dolores urged.
Matthew opened his mouth and wanted to say that even if he could eat quickly, he had to chew it before swallowing it. Couldn't he swallow the whole thing, right?
However, Dolores just stuffed a few more meat balls into his mouth just as he opened his mouth.
Matthew was speechless again.
Dolores also found that she was too anxious. She handed him water hurriedly. Matthew took the water. He swallowed the food in his mouth before taking a sip of water. He used the water to flush down the taste in his mouth. Then, he asked, "You want to choke me to death, do you?"
"No." Dolores was afraid that he was not used to eating that food.
After all, it was not something good to eat. However, they could not have more demands there and it was already good that they could eat something to fill their stomach at the moment.
Dolores tugged his sleeve and whispered, "Don't get angry."
Mathew was not angry. His wife was feeding him. Thus, he had to eat it even he might be choked to death. When he was looking at her look of admitting her mistake at the moment, how could he bear to blame her?
He pretended to be angry, "I am going to punish you when we get back."
Dolores was speechless.
Some of the food that was not finished eating by them was used to feed Cotton. They had stopped there and delayed for more than half an hour.
It was dawn when they got back to City B.
Matthew just drove back to the villa. Their two children had not slept well and eaten well in the car. Coral in the villa could take care of them. Then, he could be relieved and went to deal with the matter of Theresa.
Coral was happy to see them all back. She was having a big smile and hugging the two children. She looked at Dolores's stomach and said that time had passed so quickly.
Matthew asked Coral to help the two children to take shower and change clothes for them since there were clothes for the two children. After that, he and Dolores went upstairs. Since he was going to meet Declan, he had to take a shower and change his clothes.
Dolores sat at the bedside and waited for him.
After a while, the water in the bathroom stopped flowing. Soon, the door of the bathroom was pulled open and Matthew walked out with a white bath towel wrapping around him. He glanced at Dolores, "You had no sleep all night, go and have a good sleep now. Let Coral cook whatever you want to eat."
After saying that, he went to the cloakroom to put on his clothes.
Dolores sat there for a while. Then, she got up and went to the cloakroom. He had put on his shirt and pants and he was buckling his belt. She came in and took his suit to help him putting on it. After that, she took a tie that suit his attire from the shelf and gently tied it up for him. As a fashion designer, she would not only know about women's dressing, but she also knew lots about men's clothing.
Matthew was raising his eyebrows as she rarely 'served' him so gently.
"Is there anything wrong?" He asked.
Dolores helped him to tidy up his collar. She stroked the ironed, flattened collar and then spoke in a low voice, "Promise me, you will bring Theresa back unscathed no matter what happened."000
