Snare of Love
Chapter 773 Drink a Bunch

She stared at Noah deeply and confessed emotionally, "You were standing at the other door that God opened for me."

The host then continued saying, "The bride and groom loved each other deeply. Even I almost started crying listening to their heartfelt confession. Let's wish the couple all the best and that they would be together forever."

The audience clapped merrily.

The ceremony ended, Noah and Chloe walked down the podium. The guest started to move around freely. There were food, cakes and drinks put on the side for people to consume.

Noah, Chloe and Noah's parents walked towards Dolores.

Marine greeted Dolores happily, "I am happy that you guys came."

Dolores smiled, "It's our pleasure."

"Would you like to sit inside? Is it too hot outside?" asked Jeffery.

Dolores wanted to reject his offer because Matthew mentioned that they would go back after the ceremony as she shouldn't stay out for too long. But the family surrounded her and were being very friendly, so she nodded.

Matthew helped Dolores walk, she put her hand around his arms. They walked slowly into the house.

It was pretty bad between them back then. They forgave each other but they still needed time for transition, they couldn't act too familiar around each other.

They talked unfamiliarly.

Chloe poured Dolores a glass of water. Dolores was outside for a bit and felt a bit thirsty.

Dolores took the glass and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome," Chloe smiled.

Dolores took two sips and asked Matthew, "Are you thirsty?"

Matthew shook his head.

Noah was talking to Matthew, "Ever since I joined the army, I learned a lot of things. I feel like I wasted my time from back then."

He only wanted to become an idol because he wanted to go against Jeffery's words, and that was a wrong decision.

He didn't even like being an idol that much, but he wanted to do it just because Jeffery hated it.

It was childish thinking back about it.

"If I listened to what he said, I would be highly ranked right now."

Noah grown into a much more mature person, he wasn't the arbitrary boy from back then anymore. He was a grown man. Matthew answered, "It's not too late." He believed that Noah could accomplish what he wanted in the future.

Noah smiled, Matthew assurance made him more confident.

It was encouraging.

Jeffery and Marina were talking to the other guests. They would glance to the side from time to time and smiled when seeing them getting along so well.

"Today's your big day. Don't just stay here, go talk to the other guests as well," said Dolores.

"It's okay," Noah smiled as he said, "The guests are close with us, they wouldn't mind."

Chloe said, "Yeah, other than some relatives, the other guests are his comrades-in-arms. They meet each other every day in the base and so they wouldn't mind. We should be here with you guys since we don't meet too often."

"Oh right, when are you giving birth? Chloe and I will apply for leave and come visit you.""

Dolores replied, "In a few days."

"Really? Our ceremonies and dinners end in a week, maybe we can make it," said Chloe as she looked at Dolores' belly, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

"I would love them either way," said Dolores. They would all be her dear children.

Dolores wanted to go to the washroom. She yanked Matthew's sleeve, "I want to go to the washroom."

Chloe said, "I'll go with you..."

Matthew suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go."

Dolores smiled, "You guys should go entertain the other guests." She said this before because she wanted to use the washroom.

During this trimester, the uterus would press on the bladder and hence the times she went to the bathroom increased.

"The washroom is over there." Chloe pointed at the passageway on the right.

Dolores smiled and nodded.

She walked slowly. She arrived at the washroom and Matthew couldn't enter the ladies. Dolores had to go in herself. Matthew reminded her to take her time.

Dolores nodded her head. She knew the condition of her body and hence she was being very careful. After she washed her hand and walked out of the toilet stall, someone came in in a rush and didn't notice her as they were walking very quickly. They bumped into her.

Luckily Dolores was standing near the basin and hence she didn't fall on the ground as she managed to hold onto the side of the basin. The person didn't do it on purpose, they apologized and quickly went to the other toilet stall.

Dolores felt pain in her abdomen when she walked out of the bathroom. She put her hand against the wall and held her abdomen, "Matthew..."

Matthew got a call from the office while waiting for her. Abbott wasn't at the office and hence they had to call Matthew about everything. He took a few steps forward and looked out the window. He didn't realize that Dolores came out.

It wasn't similar to the pain from giving birth. The pain from giving birth started mildly at first, and then the pain would gradually increase when she was about to give birth.

She had experiences and knew that this time, the pain was different. It was so painful all of a sudden that she couldn't stand properly. Her legs were shaking.

"Matthew..."

She stared at Matthew as he stood there.

She called out to him with a hoarse voice.

Matthew finally looked back and saw that she was in pain. He quickly hung up the phone and walked over.

He put his hand around her shoulder, "Does your stomach hurt?"

Dolores twitched in pain, her lips turned pale and her face turned green, "I'm... in pain..."

Matthew quickly carried her and walked out.

Noah and Chloe were talking to their friends in the hall. They saw Matthew and Dolores in his arms.

Noah said to his friends, "There's alcohol out there, please help yourselves."

The friends understood that they had matters to attend to, they said, "Don't worry, don't mind us. We won't go back with an empty stomach. We will enjoy ourselves and drink a bunch even if you don't say it."

"There's blood."

Chloe noticed that there was blood at places that Matthew just walked by. They were dripping off from Dolores's legs.IIIII
