Snare of Love -
Chapter 643 What the Miller Family Wants
Armand had no idea. He had nowhere to go. Where could he go in this condition?
"Go to the villa," Dolores said.
If Theresa saw what he'd gotten himself into, she might be soft and willing to be honest with him.
If he was able to accept being childless, they wouldn't all have to suffer.
Armand lowered his head and kept quiet.
He didn't know what Dolores thought. Did he want Theresa to pity him?
He didn't want Theresa to see him in such a mess.
"No, there are too many people at the villa. I'll go to Boyce and stay at his house for a few days. I'll go home when I'm better. And don't say anything to Theresa about me. I don't want her to feel like I can't live without her. I ... am still Armand after today."
When he finished, he walked away.
Dolores wanted to stop him. She was worried about him.
Matthew took her hand and shook his head at her, "Let him be. He'll be fine once he gets over this."
There had to be a transition period.
Dolores listened to him and didn't continue to persuade Armand or call him back.
He was alone with his wounds, like an abandoned child, alone and helpless.
It was worrisome.
In the Miller's house...
Officer Miller called Boyce just to investigate his case. Now Declan and Old Mr. Bailey were in trouble and had no time for Boyce's case. At this juncture, Officer Miller used his connections to get Boyce out of trouble.
It was all made-up originally. If Old Mr. Bailey had not been arrested and this incident had not happened, he might have faked some evidence of Boyce's bribery to frame him.
Luckily, the Bailey family fell quickly. They didn't push it too far. There was much to work with.
So, it was quickly solved.
To celebrate, Officer Miller invited Boyce to his house for drinks.
After a few drinks, Officer Miller asked, "When are you going to get married to your girlfriend?"
Boyce paused as he held his glass. And then he raised his head and drank his wine and said, "We broke up."
He didn't want to explain it. In fact, they had never been in love at all, and it was all rumored due to that incident.
Last time, they came to Miller's house as boyfriend and girlfriend in disguise as well.
Officer Miller frowned, "That girl is nice, isn't she? Did you bully her?"
Wendy heard her father's words as she brought up the food and said, "How could Boyce be that kind of person? The fact that they broke up only means they weren't meant to be." Officer Miller glanced at his daughter, "You stay out of it."
"It's okay. Wendy's right." Boyce wasn't even sure if he had a crush on Jasmine.
He just felt somewhat uncomfortable with her sudden disappearance from his world and felt as if a lot of things were missing.
Wendy sat down next to him, "Boyce, don't drink too much." Then she looked at Officer Miller and said with a complaining tone, "Dad, even though you're happy, you can't make him drink too much." Officer Miller raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm your dad, right?"
Wendy nodded, "Of course."
"Why do I feel that you are better to Boyce? Why don't you care about me?" Officer Miller looked at his daughter.
He knew his daughter's feelings.
That was also why he made so much effort to help Boyce.
He knew that his daughter was divorced and that it was not very likely for her to be with Boyce, so he had to be very good to Boyce.
If he was willing to be with his daughter, he wouldn't feel too guilty to him.
And maybe Boyce could accept his daughter for his sake.
He was selfish.
No matter how selfless people were, they would still be more or less selfish in the affairs of their loved ones.
After all, she was his daughter. He always wanted to help her.
He was a father. Besides, he only had one daughter.
Boyce was a little drunk and didn't think about what they meant.
Even if he hadn't been drunk, he wouldn't have been able to figure out that Officer Miller wanted him to be his son-in-law.
"Come on, let's have another drink. You should celebrate for being able to save the day this time. As the saying goes, 'a disaster survived is a blessing in store'."
Wendy looked at Officer Miller, "It's not as bad as you say! Boyce is a lucky man. He's always been a good and decent person."
"Whatever! Come on, let's drink." Officer Miller raised his glass.
Boyce also picked up the glass because he felt embarrassed to refuse Officer Miller. He could feel that he had drunk too much.
After drinking with Officer Miller, Boyce said, "I can't drink anymore. I've had too much."
Mrs. Miller smiled and said, "It's okay. You can sleep here tonight if you are drunk. Anyway, we have spare rooms."
Mrs. Miller knew that Boyce and Jasmine had 'broken up' and was very kind to Boyce.
She felt that her daughter had a chance.
She wanted Boyce to be her son-in-law.0000
