Dolores broke out in a cold sweat the moment she was captured.
“Who are you?” Her voice trembled with nervousness, feeling worried.
Sampson turned around and pulled down his mask.
Dolores’s face turned pale instantly when she saw this face.
It was him, Sampson Herbert.
She feared this man who had imprisoned her and hurt her.
She reprimanded in a cold voice, “Let go of me!”
Sampson gripped her hand and wouldn’t let go, gritting his teeth, “I won’t!”
It had taken him so long to have such an opportunity. How could he let go of her so easily!
Many people were passing to and fro here. Someone might stop by to have a look at the two needled
each other.
Dolores didn’t want to be taken away again and let out a loud shout, “I don’t know you. Please let go of
me immediately, or I’ll call the police.”
Instantly, many were glancing sideways at them.
Sampson panicked for a moment, but then he calmed down and pulled Dolores into his arms, “It’s just
a quarrel. Why are you so angry?”
He explained to those who were looking over, “Sorry for the disturbance. She’s my girlfriend, and she is
just messing with me.”
After a few sighs, some who thought they were doing a good deed, came up to persuade Dolores,
“Young lady, don’t be so capricious. There are so many people here, and your boyfriend will be so
humiliated for arguing with you like this.”
Dolores desperately shook her head, “I’m not his girlfriend. I don’t know him…”
“I’m sorry, Lola. I was wrong. I won’t make you angry again. Stop making a scene and come home with
me.”
Sampson held her waist and dragged her out.
Nobody came up to help after knowing that they were lovers’ quarrel.
Instead, many people were still helping Sampson, thinking that Dolores was so immature for making a
scene and having a big fight with her boyfriend right outside, not even caring for her boyfriend’s sake.
No one would help her. Dolores clenched her hands and fell back. Then, just when Sampson tried to
seize her, she grabbed his arm and bit it.
Sampson was in pain and loosened his grip. Dolores took the opportunity to get out of his grasp. She
was just about to run away when someone grabbed her arm. She turned around and saw a stranger.
“Don’t be so capricious. Look at how your boyfriend is hurting from your bite.”
“I’m not his girlfriend!” She yelled in a harsh and low voice.
The man froze and let go of his hand, seemingly shaken by Dolores’s outrage.
“Lola…” Sampson reached out and grabbed her hand.
“Let go of her!” At that moment, the driver rushed over to this site. Seeing this, Sampson let go of
Dolores and ran away quickly.
The driver wanted to go after him, but Dolores shouted at him, “Stop chasing. There are so many
people here, and you can’t find him if he hid among them.”
The driver walked up to Dolores, “Are you alright?”
Dolores shook her head, “Let’s go.”
“You’re really not his girlfriend, are you?” The man who had just grabbed Dolores for Sampson stood
dumbfounded. He had wanted to help out with good intentions, but it turned out that he wasn’t.
Dolores looked back at him icily and said nothing.
It was Sampson’s shamelessness, saying that they were lovers, that had caused the crowd to
misunderstand and speak for him.
If the driver hadn’t arrived in time, she didn’t even know if she could run away.
The driver followed her out of the mall. It was only when Dolores got into the car that she relaxed, still
having second thoughts about what had just happened.
Was Sampson following her in the dark? Would he come out at every opportunity?
She knew nothing. There were many speculations and anxieties inside her. She didn’t know when
Sampson would come out next.
Sampson’s existence was like an untimed bomb, not knowing when it would explode, threatening her
all the time.
They were back at the hotel as she thought about the matters.
The driver opened the car door for her, “We’re here, Ms. Flores.”
It was the driver’s voice that brought Dolores to her senses. She got out of the car and glanced back
involuntarily. Not knowing if it was a shadow in her heart, she always felt that Sampson was hiding
somewhere, peeking at her.
“This is our place. He wouldn’t dare to appear easily.” The driver said.
Dolores nodded and walked into the hotel with her things.
She would still unconsciously look left and right on the journey through the lobby to the upper floors.
Even knowing that Matthew arranged all the people here, she still felt uneasy.
She couldn’t help herself.
The lift stopped with a ding, and she stepped out.
“Simona, don’t be so childish, okay?” Samuel gritted his teeth as he spoke to his sister.
“Where got? I just like playing Plant vs. Zombies. What’s wrong with that?” Simona didn’t feel childish,
and instead, she played with enthusiasm.
“Sun, sun. I have picked up so many suns, and I can plant a pea shooter…” The little girl said to
herself.
She didn’t even bother about her brother. Where did she being childish?
She had so much fun.
Samuel rubbed his hair and couldn’t stand it anymore. However, Simona’s voice was still so loud,
annoying him.
“Samuel.” Dolores stood in the doorway and called to him.
Simona was concentrating on playing the game at the moment and didn’t notice Dolores had returned.
“Mommy.” Samuel walked over with his knitted brows.
Dolores reached out and stroked his brows, “You’re a good boy. You’ve helped mommy take care of
your sister very well. So, I want to give you a present.”
Samuel’s eyes lit up, “What kind of present?”
Of course he was happy to have a gift.
Dolores handed the bag to him.
Samuel immediately took it over and pulled out the box inside, “A Rubik’s cube?”
Dolores nodded and teased him, “I heard the boss say it’s tough. I don’t know if you can solve it.”
Samuel looked up at her and continued to take it apart. He wanted to see how challenging it was. He
liked to challenge something hard.
After opening it and seeing the thing, Samuel stared straight at it. He then looked up at Dolores,
“Mommy, where did you buy this?”
“I went outside and bought it. What’s the matter?” Dolores was confused by her son’s attitude.
“I like it.” Samuel was already eager to try it, “Thanks, mommy.”
Dolores smiled and stroked her son’s head, “It’s good that you like it.”
“I’m going to play it then.”
“Okay.”
Samuel ran into the room and sat down on the sofa, starting to study the Rubik’s cube in his hand.
Dolores got up, seeing that the two children were quiet. She then turned around and went into the other
room.
Matthew was still sitting on the sofa, with the laptop on his lap, working on the company matters. He
looked busy as he just had been when Dolores left.
Dolores’s eyes were droopy as she walked in lightly with her things in her hand.
After putting down her stuff, she took out a piece of paper and a pen from her bag and gently walked
out again.
She didn’t want to disturb him.
Matthew was speechless.
He had been waiting for her for so long. So he was overjoyed when he heard Dolores coming back. As
he walked to the door, he found that she had bought Samuel a gift.
To keep Dolores from discovering him, he gently walked back to his room and sat on the sofa,
disguising himself as if he was still angry and busy.
He was looking at the computer, but yet he was wondering where she had gone in his mind. She had
bought a gift for Samuel, and was there a one for him?
He waited with anticipation for Dolores to come in.
However, she did come in but left again without saying anything.
He put down his laptop and walked back and forth in the room. Why couldn’t this woman come to cheer
him up?
Couldn’t she tell that he was unhappy?
Didn’t she care about him?
And why she had gone out again?
Matthew had never been so anxious. Finally, he couldn’t stand it.
He could go to her even if she wasn’t coming to him.
He forgave his wife. After convincing himself, Matthew stepped out of the room and saw Dolores in the
hallway.
