Snare of Love
Chapter 576 She’s Just Tired

"Don't come in anyway." When she was speaking, something fell to the ground and made a loud sound. Matthew was worried about her and hurriedly pushed open the door. He then saw a pink toy dressing box and the things in the box scattered on the ground.

Flustered, Tiana stood aside with her head lowered, while Amanda, who was surrounded by the mess, wriggled her fingers and explained in a low voice, "Er... dad, we were playing a dressing game."

Matthew touched his forehead speechlessly when seeing the green-and-red graffiti on her face.

"Dad..." Amanda didn't think she was wrong. It was just that she was afraid her dad would get angry. Matthew took a deep breath, trying to calm down himself, and said, "Clean it and we will have dinner."

After finishing the words, he turned around and found Coral was setting the table. He recalled that Theresa was also living in the house and Coral had to take care of the two children. Moreover, Dolores was pregnant. Apparently, Coral was so busy with all these things alone. He took out his phone and dialled Abbott.

Abbott answered the call soon.

He walked to the windows. Clenching his phone, he said, "Find a reliable maid to the villa tomorrow. The salary is not a problem. But remember to investigate her background in detail."

"Okay. I see. It's just that one day is too short for me." Abbott was worried that he couldn't replace a suitable candidate in such a short period.

"Two days." Matthew ended the call after finishing the words.

Abbott had been accustomed to it and prepared to go to replace a maid after finishing the current tasks.

"Daddy, where's mummy?" Andrew walked over, but he found Dolores neither in the kitchen nor in the living room.

Matthew put his phone into his pocket and said, "She's upstairs."

"I will call her to come downstairs and have dinner." When speaking, he prepared to run upstairs. But Matthew reached out to grab his collar, "Don't call her." Andrew turned around and looked at him in confusion, "Did you quarrel with mummy?"

Otherwise, why didn't he allow him to call her to have dinner?

"You two have made peace for only several days." Why did they have to let him worry about them? Wait, didn't they show their affection in the mall today? Matthew frowned and said, "Can't you think of some good things about your parents?"

Andrew pouted and then asked, "Is it because of the thing on the Internet?"

"Which thing?" Matthew immediately associated it with the question Dolores asked him today. He took out his phone, preparing to check it. Andrew handed the tablet computer to him, "See." Matthew scrolled the screen and saw various comments.

[Who's this woman?]

Someone replied: [Contemporary, many female stars like to marry the rich. Maybe she's an unpopular star.]

The commenter replied, "I think so. Haha, I can't replace any information about this woman on the internet."

[But I think they're a good match.]

There were many comments. Matthew understood what was only going by some rough glances.

But how did these people know about him?

Although he had been to many activities, he didn't open a personal account on Weibo. How could he be so popular?

The likes and comments he got were comparable to those of first-class celebrities.

What was going on?

"Have you finished?" Andrew's hand felt sore after holding the tablet computer high for a long while. He tossed the tablet computer aside and stroked his wrist, "Hold it by yourself." Matthew ignored it. He rubbed Andrew's head and said, "Wash your hands and we will have dinner."

"Daddy." Amanda, who had cleaned her face, walked over with Tiana.

Tiana felt embarrassed and explained, "Amy insisted on let me draw it."

Although Matthew was not satisfied with Charles, he didn't transfer his anger to Tiana. After all, it was Charles who didn't have good quality. He said in a flat tone, "Go to the table."

"Thank you, dad." Amanda immediately became happy. She held up Tiana's hand and said, "Tiana, hurry up."

"Cotton." Tiana reminded Amanda, "We haven't fed Cotton."

"Oh yes. I will prepare the dog food for it." Seeming to realize that he was about to have some food, Cotton wagged its tail and followed behind them. Amanda took out the dog food from the cabinet and poured some food into the bowl with Tiana's help.

She then washed her hands and then sat down at the table. Coral had served all the dishes on the table.

When Matthew walked into the kitchen, Coral was placing the rest dishes on a tray, preparing to carry them to Theresa. Seeing Matthew, she asked, "What do you need?"

"Do you reserve some food for her?" Matthew asked, fearing that Dolores would have nothing to eat when she woke up.

"I made some corn and sparerib soup this afternoon. When she wakes up, I can boil some small wontons with the soup for her. And she can also have some lean meat and corn." Matthew nodded and said, "A new maid will be here in two days."

Coral said with a smile, "I hope life will always be like this. It was too quiet some time ago. Mrs. Nelson won't leave again, right?"

Matthew told her she wouldn't leave again, turned around and left the kitchen. Coral held up the tray and walked towards Theresa's bedroom.

Around the table, Tiana didn't pick up anything even though she was very hungry. It was because only the two children were here and she, as a guest, couldn't start to eat first.

Amanda put a piece of food into her bowl, "Tiana, get started. Coral cooks well."

Matthew picked up his chopsticks, took a glance at Tiana and asked her to start eating. Tiana then finally picked up her chopsticks.

After the dinner, Amanda pulled Tiana back to her bedroom and wanted to continue the game with her. However, Amanda's phone rang at this moment. It was a call from Charles and he told her he would come to take her back.

"I will play with you next time," Tiana said. She also liked this little girl and thought Cotton was so cut.

Amanda felt boring at home and didn't want her to leave. Tiana didn't think she was childish and was willing to play with her. Amanda held Tiana's hand and said, "Tiana, will you come here again?" Tiana replied, "I will if I get the chance."

"Let me send you." Amanda had regarded Tiana as her friend after playing with her for a while.

Although Matthew didn't want to see Charles, he could not let Amanda go out alone and could only follow them.

Tiana walked out of the villa hand in hand with Amanda.

Charles got out of the car and waited for her at the gate. There were lights on the gate and the walls and they were on now. It was as bright as the day.

Seeing them, Charles said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Nelson."

Matthew ignored him. He reached out towards Amanda, "We should come back."

Unwilling to accept this, Charles continued, "Are you fearing that I will talk with her so that you deliberately not let her go out?"

"Maybe Dolores is uncomfortable. She didn't even have dinner."

Before Matthew could say anything, Tiana replied to Charles' question. She let go of Amanda and walked to Charles.

Hearing that Dolores was uncomfortable, Charles frowned and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Tiana supported his wheelchair and shook her head, "I don't know either."

Holding up Amanda's hand, Matthew led her towards the villa. Amanda turned around and waved at Tiana, "Goodbye Tiana. Come to play with me when you're free." Tiana agreed to it and waved at her.

Looking at Matthew's back and feeling worried towards Dolores, Charles asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Matthew paused. Several seconds later, he turned around, "Who told you she's uncomfortable?"

"Then why didn't she have dinner?" Charles looked up at Tiana and then quickly withdrew his lines of sight. Matthew chuckled and replied, "She's just tired. Should I tell you why she's tired?"
