Maria was wearing a pale pinkish gray dress, white high-heels, and delicate makeup. Her curly hair
with big waves was combed to hang on one of her shoulders.
She seemingly had seen Dolores for a long time. With her arms across on her chest, she gazed at
Dolores at the entrance.
Dolores didn’t want to get in any conflict with her. It didn’t mean that she feared of Maria, but she was
just not in the mood to tangle with Maria. Hence, Dolores pulled Theresa further and walked from the
side way.
However, Maria didn’t intent to let her go easily.
In her opinion, if it weren’t for Dolores, how would Matthew dump her?
No matter where Dolores was heading to, Maria just blocked her way.
“What is wrong with you?” Theresa became angry after being stopped for several times.
“You have something wrong with yourself!” Maria glared at her. Her delicate face twitched because of
anger.
“If you are on your right state, why are you blocking our way?” Theresa glared back at her.
She could also express her anger through the glare.
When Abbott drove passing here by, he happened to see the arguing women in front of the hotel
entrance. “Excuse me, Mr. Nelson. It seems that Ms. Herbert and Ms. Flores are over there,” he said to
the man sitting on the backseat and stopped the car.
Matthew was reading a document with some unread ones on his lap. He was wearing white shirt, his
suit jacket unbuttoned. His shirt was loose and two buttons on the collar were buttoned as well. His
slender neck and looming collarbones could be seen. Seemingly he was pretty busy. Otherwise, he
wouldn’t be reading documents when sitting in the car.
Hearing what Abbott said, he rolled down the car window and looked over there.
Sure enough, he saw those two women.
Matthew casted a glance at Maria, his eyes darkened. Closing the file in his hands, he didn’t mean to
get off, but he had lost his interests to continue reading them.
Abbott asked him gingerly, “Shall we get off and take a look?”
Matthew threw him a cold glance. Abbott pursed his lips, shutting up unwillingly.
In front of the hotel entrance, Dolores pulled Theresa. “Let’s change a restaurant.”
“You want to leave? No way!” Maria opened her arms and continued blocking Dolores’ way. She was
enraged because Matthew had called off their engagement.
Now she met the culprit. How could she let Dolores go so easily?
Dolores’ face totally darkened. “Get out of my way!”
Maria sneered. “Get out of your way?” she said in a ferocious tone, “Dolores Flores, dream on! You’ve
ruined my happiness and my future. How could I let you go? I wish I could tear you into pieces and toss
your flesh to feed dogs.”
“I’m afraid the dogs wouldn’t eat the thing you give them!” Theresa was unwilling to see her so
arrogant.
Maria slapped Theresa across the face. Pointing at Theresa’s nose, she snapped, “Who do you think
you are? How dare you speak with me in this way?”
Theresa was startled because of the slap.
She felt burning pain on her cheek.
Dolores clenched her hands. All her blood flew backwards all over her body, and the power gathered
on her right hand. She raised her hand and slapped Maria in her left face.
This slap sounded much louder than the one just now.
She didn’t want to tangle with Maria but it didn’t mean that she was a pushover.
Maria slapped Theresa, which was the same as she had slapped her.
Maria’s eyes almost popped out. She couldn’t believe that Dolores had the guts to hit her. “How dare
you hit me?”
Dolores clenched her hands. Just now, she slapped Maria with all her strength. Now not only her hand
but also her whole arm was numb. She kept calm on her face, though. “If you didn’t offend me, I
wouldn’t offend you. It was you who provoked me first. Do you think you are somebody just because
you are the daughter of the Herbert family? We’re all human beings and none of us is superior to the
other. Since you hit her, you should bear the retribution.”
Retribution?
“You’re the one who deserves the retribution!” Maria pounced at her as if she had gone nuts. “Dolores
Flores, I’m gonna kill you. I’m gonna kill you...”
All the hatred suppressed in Maria’s heart had found a breakthrough on Dolores. Maria was out of
control.
She had already lost her mind.
“Are you sure you can win against us two?” Dolores was extremely calm, standing motionlessly.
From nowhere, Theresa found a stick, holding it in her hands. She gazed at Maria with alert. If Maria
dared to move, Theresa would hit her on the head.
Maria paused. Since she had returned to the Herbert family, nobody dared to provoke her in this way.
She had been used to the compliment and flattery from others, and she had never been suffered such
a loss.
She was so furious.
She couldn’t help trembling because of the fury.
“What are you glaring at? Aren’t you afraid your eyes would fall out?” Shaking the stick, Theresa was
ready to raise the stick and hit her.
Maria was so scared that she couldn’t help holding her head tightly.
It was just her instinctive reaction.
But the way she looked was pretty hilarious.
“Ha ha...” Theresa laughed at her.
“Dolores Flores, I won’t let you go!” Maria was so mad that she almost roared hysterically.
‘Ha!’
Dolores sneered.
Let go of her?
When did Maria let go of her before?
“Maria Herbert, you harmed my mother and made her mentally ill, planned my car accident, and almost
killed me. Have you ever had mercy and planned to let go of me?” She had been hesitant, wondering if
she should revenge Maria because she was Sampson’s younger sister. If she really did something to
Maria, she would feel sorry for Sampson.
After all, Sampson really cared about his younger sister.
However, seeing that Maria had already hated her to the core and never planned to let go of her,
Dolores realized that Maria could continuously hurt her since Maria had already done it to her
repeatedly.
Now Dolores was different from how she used to be. She had two kids as her weaknesses.
Nobody would know if Maria would hurt her kids if she had gone nuts.
At this moment, Dolores firmly made up her mind that she would work with Terry to file reserve the case
of her accident as well as his brother’s suicide in the past.
She was afraid that only when Maria was punished by the law eventually that her world would become
peaceful completely.
Maria was taken aback. Squinting, she asked, “Have you already know I planned the car accident back
then?”
After all, it had been so many years. Nobody should have known the truth of the matter back then.
“Nobody would know only if you didn’t do it.” Dolores stressed each syllable.
“Did my brother tell you?” She only told Sampson about this.
Suddenly she felt as if the whole world had betrayed her. Matthew dumped her. Even her elder brother
who loved her very much had told this woman her secret.
Dolores’ heart skipped a beat. ‘Does Sampson know it was Maria who planned the car accident back
then?’ she wondered.
But he had clearly told her it was an accident before.
Dolores wondered if he said that deliberately to protect his younger sister.
Suddenly, Dolores recalled Sampson’s abnormality that day. He asked her, “In the future, if you’ll find
that I’m not that nice, would you hate me?”
She wondered if it was all because of this matter that he looked with a heavy heart that day.
Dolores’ silence became an acquiescence in Maria’s opinion.
“Ha ha... Ha ha ha...” Maria burst into laughter crazily. She laughed too hard that tears all streamed out.
“Such a hypercritical love! All fake!”
She had thought that Sampson treated her truly well.
She had never expected that she was not so important to him as this woman was.
What was so good of this woman?
Why did all men favor her so much?
Theresa was shocked by Maria’s look. She asked in a low voice, “Lola, is she going nuts?”
Dolores shook her head.
“Dolores Flores.”
Suddenly Maria paused, gazing at Dolores so viciously as if her eyes were full of poison, which could
kill Dolores by just staring at her. “Dolores Flores, let’s wait and see!”
She as now the daughter of the Herbert family now. There would be a lot of chances to kill Dolores for
sure.
She had such chances before.
She would have more chances in the future.
“I’m waiting.” Dolores stood straight, her charisma winning over Maria’s.
Knowing that she wouldn’t be at any advantage if she kept tangling with Dolores in this way, Maria
decided to leave and make another plan later.
She regretted that she was too careless and she had underestimated Dolores.
Now she embarrassed herself in this way.
Stepping down the steps, when she was about to drive, Maria saw the man who was walking towards
them. Her eyes glinted. She ran towards him immediately. “Matthew...”
