Snare of Love novel Chapter 6

Matthew frowned and had a feeling of being cheated.

In the living room, Coral already got up to prepare breakfast.

Seeing Dolores who was in pyjamas sitting alone on the sofa, Coral asked with a beaming smile, “Did you sleep well last night?”

Coral thought that Matthew would not come back last night as he was accompanied by Helen. But last night, she heard a noise so she got up to take a look and found out that Matthew had come back last night and even slept in the room.

This person was the wife of the young master. And this marriage was arranged by his mother, so she naturally must be a good woman. The young master finally got married so Coral, who had been taking care of him, was happy about it.

Her tone and expression sounded too obliging and this made Dolores felt somehow dubious.

Dolores curled into a stiff smile, “Quite, quite good.”

“Then you hurry up to change clothes. I’ll prepare breakfast so that you can eat later.” Coral walked into the dining room and started making breakfast.

Dolores looked down at her pyjamas. The clothes she had brought were still in the room.

The man in the room should have got changed now, right?

She stood up and headed to the bedroom. She stood in front of the door and raised her hand to knock on the door.

No one answered.

She knocked again but she still did not get any response.

She had no choice but to open the door. The door was not locked and it was opened the moment she pushed it.

But the moment the door was opened, she was greeted by an icy wind that could chill someone to the marrow, as if it was winter in December.

Matthew sat on the edge of the bed. His eyes were coldly staring at a piece of paper.

That paper…

Soon, Dolores saw the thing holding in his hand and the mess on the floor. She experienced total mortification as she felt that her privacy was being pried into. She ran to him, snatched it and asked, “How can you look at others’ thing without their permission, do you know what is privacy?”

Matthew sneered, “Privacy?”

The way he smiled was particularly creepy, “You married me with a bastard in your belly, and now you come to tell me about privacy?”

“I…I…” Dolores wanted to explain but she was suddenly at a loss for words.

Matthew stood up and his steps were steady and particularly rhythmic. Each of his steps could apparently pressurize the room. Then, an angry frown creased his forehead, “Tell me, what’s your purpose?”

Did she want him to be the father of the illegitimate child and make the child be the first grandchild of the Nelson family?

Was the previous deal merely her stopgap measure?

The more he thought about it, the more his face darkened.

Dolores pursed her lips and her body was quivering. She constantly moved backward with her hands covering her abdomen, fearing that he would hurt the child in her belly, “I didn’t mean to hide it from you. The marriage among us is just a deal and that’s why I…I hide it from you, I swear I don’t have any purpose.”

Matthew’s tone was somehow with eerie and bizarre intimidation, “Oh? Really?”

Dolores covered her abdomen with hands, secretly moving back with composure, “Really, I’m clear that this kind of thing definitely can’t be muddled through. If I have any deceitful and wicked thoughts, I swear I’ll die miserably. Moreover, if I really cause trouble to Mr. Nelson, I think Mr. Nelson also has many ways to kill me, right?”

Although her movement was very light, Matthew was still able to notice it. He took a glance at her covered abdomen.

His gaze stayed on her face, “Why didn’t you make it clear before?”

Matthew would not believe her words so easily.

Her hands which were protecting her abdomen were slowly clenched. This child was too unexpected for her but it was her blood relative after all. She had already lost her brother so she wanted to give birth to this child.

In the future, she could be with her mother in which three of them could live on each other just like in the past days.

When she thought of the matter that happened that night, she could not help but tremble and her hands felt cold and clammy, “I, I also just found it out not long before…”

She did not even dare to tell Jessica. She did not dare to put the sheet of medical tests she had done in the hospital in her house as she was afraid that Jessica would find out.

She did not expect to cause such a big commotion., which made Matthew thought that she had a deceitful motive.

She was still very young, but she surprisingly…

How promiscuous her private life was?

She was afraid that Matthew would treat her daughter badly.

Dolores hugged Jessica. She did not mean to do so but she was just too exhausted after spending much effort to confront Matthew and convince him.

“Mom, I’m just feeling a little tired, I didn’t mean it.”

“I know, Mom doesn’t blame you.” Jessica could somehow feel her daughter’s exhaustion, “If you’re tired, go to sleep for a while.”

Dolores nodded. Even though she did not want to sleep, she did really feel tired. After going to her room, she actually fell asleep without realizing it.

At noon, the meal prepared by Jessica was ready. She waked Dolores up to eat.

When Dolores sat at the table, Jessica served Dolores some rice, “I made the meal with the fish you like to eat.”

Jessica felt guilty for her daughter. Although she had given birth to her, she was unable to give Dolores a good childhood and she let her suffer together with her.

Dolores had a look at the sour-sweet fish cooked by her mother on the table. It had a faint sweet and sour taste which she used to love to eat. However, when she smelled this kind of smell at this moment, her stomach churned.

She could not resist, “Urg…”

“Lola.”

Dolores had no time to make an explanation. She covered her lips and made a beeline to the washroom, lowering her body by the sink and retching.

Jessica was worried so she followed Dolores. Jessica experienced it before and when she saw her daughter’s reaction, her face slightly turned pale. But, Jessica did not quite believe it as her daughter was very conservative and obedient so she had never had a boyfriend at school. She was very honest.

Jessica’s voice was quivering, “Lola, what’s wrong with you?”

Dolores’s body stiffened and her hands at the sink gradually clenched into a fist. She decided to give birth to this child so sooner or later Jessica would have to know it.

She turned to look at her mother and plucked up the courage.

“Mom, I’m pregnant.”

Shocked, Jessica lost her balance for a moment and took a step back. She was a little incredulous as her daughter was only eighteen.
