Snare of Love -
Chapter 711 Looking at Her Happy Look
"What's going on?" Dolores looked at her son who was standing in front of the sofa.
Andrew pointed at his sister who was still crying, "She wants to play Cat and Mouse but she cries when she loses."
"You're a nuisance." Amanda wiped her tears, ran towards her daddy and mummy and complained, "He's so annoying."
Dolores looked at her speechlessly.
She was worried when Amanda got scared and didn't speak for a long time before, but she turned into her old self again after she recovered.
"When will you turn not to be a telltale?"
Matthew Nelson reached out his hand to stroke her head, "Admit your failure."
Jasmine Burke gathered up the pillows and toys that had just been thrown everywhere.
Amanda thought that her father would bias her and reprimand her brother, but to her surprise, he didn't favor himself, so she curled her lips and ran back to help Jasmine clean up the toys. "This child can't be spoiled, if you spoil her, she might be crying again this time," Dolores said to the man beside her.
Matthew turned his head to look at her, "You mean I'm spoiling her?"
Dolores said, "You know it yourself."
After finishing her words, Jasmine walked over, "Leave it, let Coral clean it up."
She stood up with her hands clutching the hem of her clothes nervously, "It's okay, it isn't tiring."
Dolores smiled and said friendly, "You're not used to it, right?"
Jasmine lowered her head, "It's fine."
Dolores could see that she was a bit nervous as she felt uncomfortable to live here. After all, she didn't know anyone and hadn't spent much time with them together.
"My two children are very rowdy." Dolores spoke to her to lighten the atmosphere and also tried to get closer with her so that she would be less restrained.
She smiled and said, "They are very cute and smart."
Dolores sat down on the sofa and asked her to sit as well.
"Let me help to tidy up." She squatted in front of the toy basket and picked them up with Amanda.
The toys had been spilled when they played Cat and Mouse, and many small parts were rolled everywhere.
"When is Boyce Shawn coming back?" Amanda asked as she tilted her head and looked at Jasmine.
Boyce hadn't called her and she hadn't taken the initiative to contact him because she knew that he must be busy and had a lot of things to deal with when he returned. She couldn't help him, the only thing she could do was not to cause him any trouble.
"I don't know too."
Amanda blinked, "Aren't you his girlfriend? How come you don't know his whereabouts?"
Jasmine found her amusing as she seemed to know a lot since she was a kid.
"Even if I'm his girlfriend, I can't deprive him of his time, right? He has his own things to do." Amanda couldn't fully understand.
"There are so many things in adults' world. Girlfriends are also changing one after another." Soon her smile changed.
She clearly knew that Amanda was referring to her and Wendy Miller.
"She is a child. She is immature." Dolores was afraid that she would think too much about it.
Jasmine was busy shaking her head, "Actually it's my fault."
If looking into it, it seemed that she was the third party who broke up Boyce and Wendy.
Andrew helped his sister to put the toy basket in the corner and said, "Let's go to the room." Amanda nodded, "Is grandpa in the study room? I want to see what they are doing."
"Let's go then." Two of them walked towards the study room hand in hand.
Now they had a close bonding and she forgot that she had just cried.
Coral sat down on the sofa and looked at Dolores, "Did Boyce talk to you about my situation?"
Dolores said, "He had mentioned some, but he didn't say it in detail."
Jasmine intertwined her hands and said after remaining silent for a while, "I don't have parents, let alone a good family background. I can't help him in any way..." "Boyce isn't the kind of person who needs to rely on others' help in his business, you just need to take good care of his life," Dolores interrupted her.
She felt that relationship is pure, as long as she was clear about whether she liked or disliked, nothing else mattered and there was no need to care. If thinking about it too much, it would bind her hands and feet.
Jasmine smiled and said, "Thank you."
Dolores's words had enlightened her. Even after following Boyce back, she was still uncertain and had no idea whether she was right or wrong to do so.
Right now she was sure that she and Boyce loved each other.
Although there was an age gap between them, it wasn't important.
Dolores patted her hands, "Rest early."
She nodded.
Dolores got up and went upstairs, then pushed the bedroom door open and noticed that someone was talking on the phone. As she vaguely heard him talking about something related to doctor, she felt nervous then lightened her steps to approach, trying to hear what he was saying clearly. However, just as she got closer, Matthew hung up the phone. When he turned around and saw Dolores standing behind him, he froze for a moment, "When did you come up?"
"I just came upstairs. Who were you talking to on the phone?" Dolores tilted her head and asked.
Matthew who had showered wore a silk pyjamas and Dolores could smell the scent of his body wash as he stood close to her.
"The head of the branch in Country M called me, saying that he had contacted a specialist from the Mayo Medical Center to give you a consultation. We'll go there tomorrow afternoon." Dolores nodded and said, "Okay."
Matthew put his arm around her shoulders and headed inside, "Let's go to bed."
She asked him to sleep first, "I'll go and wash up."
The next day, they woke up early as well as the two children as they knew they were going to go to school while Jasmine helped Coral to prepare breakfast.
After eating, Dolores packed up the relevant formalities needed for the two children to go to school. The two children were somewhat excited as they put on their school bags.
She smiled as she felt they were cute and wondered what they were so excited about since there were no books in their bags yet.
After dressing them up, she braided her daughter's hair and explained, "You're a big kid as you go to primary school ..."
"I can't be wayward, I've to be polite and respectful. You've said it many times, I know and I remember, you should stop saying it all the time, mommy," Amanda said with some impatience. Andrew pinched her cheek, "Look at your impatient look, you're ugly."
"You're the ugly one!" she hated others to comment that.
Dolores sighed and seemed to have no choice with them.
At the table in dining room, Matthew said to Jayden Nelson and Victoria Forbis, "I'm taking Lola abroad."
"Go abroad at this time? I think it isn't convenient for her to go now," Victoria said.
Matthew had the same opinion too.
If they wanted to go abroad, it was better to wait until she had given birth.
He didn't hide it from the two elders, "She is in a poor heath, she needs to go for a check-up."
"What's going on?" Jayden was worried about Dolores and the baby too.
"I'm not sure yet, I'll let you know when the test is done and the exact result is released," He said.
"You guys just go without worries. We'll take care for home and children," Victoria said.
However, Jayden wasn't so optimistic. Since they had to go abroad, it must not be a small deal. He stood up and put his hand on Matthew's shoulder and gripped on it firmly, "Whether it's good or bad, tell me truthfully."
He replied, "Will do."
Today was the first day of school and both of them fetched the children. The driver drove the car while they sat at the back with the two children.
By the time Amanda woke up in the morning, she always showed a smile on her face.
She seemed to look forward to her primary school life.
There were many people at the entrance of school and the luxury cars which were parked on the roadside in line had blocked the road. The guards were evacuating people around and Matthew frowned when Amanda pulled him to push their ways through the crowd, "Move slower."
It was easy to bump into others since there was a crowd.
Above the school building, there was a man standing up there and looking at Amanda. His fists clenched tightly together when looking at her smile and happy look.
