Dolores raised up her head and the little girl’s face appeared in her eyes. The little girl was wearing a
red cotton-padded jacket and her face was red with cold.
“Miss, what are you doing here?”
Dolores looked at the little girl and then she glanced at the surrounding. There wasn’t any adult around.
Her gaze fell on the little girl again, “I am in a bad mood so that’s why I am here. Why are you here?
Where is your family?”
“My mum is over there.” She pointed at the nearby kebab stall.
Dolores looked over by following the direction of her finger. There was a kebab stall and a woman who
was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket and helping the customer to grill the kebab.
“I am here to help my mum.” The little girl was very obedient. Dolores touched her hair lightly, “You are
a good girl.”
Maybe it was because that she herself had a child so she was less wary of the little girl.
“Do you want to have some kebabs? I can ask my mum to give you a lower price.”
Although Dolores didn't like to eat those kind of food, she took out her cash and gave it to the little girl.
“I don’t eat this. The money is for you to buy some tasty food.”
The little girl blinked her eyes. She dared not to receive it when she was looking at that much of money.
“Miss, what did you give me money?”
She was looking at the little girl. She saw herself in the past through the little girl when she and Jessica
stayed in Country A. At that time, they were having financial hardship to support their living. The little
girl was just like her who was also staying up late at night in the cold wind and she did all that just to
earn a little money for food.
Thus, she felt sympathetic when she saw the little girl.
“It was because that your situation was similar as me and my mum in the past.”
The little girl blinked her eyes and asked, “Did you sell kebabs like us before?”
Dolores shook her head, “I didn’t sell it before but I worked for others and helped them to skewer the
meat on the kebabs.”
The little girl smiled and it showed up her rows of white teeth. She took over the money from Dolores. “I
will help you to go and take the kebabs.”
The little girl was running to the kebab stall. Dolores’s gaze became tender when she saw the little girl’s
running back.
In her opinion, her life must be better after getting through the hardest days.
“I'll go and ask Dolores to come back.” Armand couldn't bear with it anymore. Dolores had stayed
outside for a few hours in the cold winter, he was afraid that she would freeze out there.
Matthew did not change his mind.
“Aren't you heartbroken for her?” Armand stared at him inconceivability.
Didn't he love Dolores so deeply? Why was his heart so hardened at the moment?
“Tell me, why did the little girl appear?”
Matthew did not moved his gaze.
Armand barely considered before he said, “She was just a kid. I think maybe she saw Dolores sitting
there alone for a long time and she was curious about so she ran over there to talk to her.”
Matthew turned his head and looked at Armand, “He knows her well.”
“What's the connection…” When his words stopped halfway, suddenly, he understood what Matthew
meant. There was a possibility that little girl had some connection to Sampson.
“Dolores is so kind.” Armand said that because he saw Dolores was giving money to the little girl.
Matthew didn't say a word. However, his face seemed that he was not in a good mood. Dolores’s gaze
seemed that she had thought of something when she was giving money to the little girl.
In his opinion, it must be some parts of the little girl that had made her recall of something.
After half an hour, the little girl ran to Dolores with kebabs in her hand. “Miss, here you have.”
Dolores stared at the kebabs which were still hot. She had been frozen for hours so she actually really
wanted to take a bite on it. Thus, she took the kebabs and took out one of the kebabs and bit off the
meat on it. There was a smoky smell on it and it did not have the greasy taste like it was fried by oil.
“Thanks.” Dolores smiled, “It's tasty.”
The little girl pulled her arm, “You gave me so much money so my mum said that she wanted to show
appreciation to you but she can’t just left the stall now. Can you go with me?”
“Go and tell your mum not to mention it…”
“Then I will give you back the money that you gave me.” Just as the little girl was speaking, she took
out the money that Dolores gave her from her pocket.
Dolores pressed on her hand, “Since I have given it to you, it can’t be returned to me. You can ask your
mum to buy a new cotton-padded jacket for you with these money. Then, you will feel warmer and not
getting cold when you come out to company your mum in the stall.
“No, I can’t just simply take your money. It is also fine for me to receive it but you have to accept my
mum’s appreciation.”
The little girl was very stubborn. Dolores had no choice but to accept her request. She thought that
Sampson probably wouldn’t be there at that moment of time.
There were still customers at the period of time and the little girl’s mother was still busy with her
business. When she saw that the little girl had pulled Dolores over there, she wiped her hands on her
apron. “Did you give money to my daughter?”
Dolores raised up her hand that was holding kebab, “The money is for the kebabs.”
“But the kebabs don’t cost that much of money, you're too kind, no wonder the gentleman likes you so
much and was so eager to ask my daughter to pull you over here.” The woman was having a ponytail.
She looked ordinary and she seemed like a kind person.
However, Dolores was puzzled and then she asked uncertainly, “What gentleman?”
“It's me.” A man who was sitting in front of the kebab stall and eating a kebab stood up of a sudden. He
turned his head and then Dolores managed to see his face clearly.
Sampson Herbert?
She stepped back with alarm immediately.
“Miss, Sir said he likes you a lot and I like you too.” The little girl said innocently.
Dolores lowered her head and looked down at the little girl's innocent face. She clenched her hands
tightly, he had even used a kid!
“How come you have become like this?!” Dolores scolded him in anger.
“You are the one who forced me to do so.” Sampson himself felt that he was clever, “You had a falling
out with Matthew? I told you long time ago that people who have hurt you won't love you sincerely.
There is only me who love you with my whole heart and soul.”
He patted his chest and gritted his teeth when he was speaking. He looked so sinister.
Dolores had figured out that what was happening at the time. It was most likely that Sampson was
afraid that there was a trap so he purposely placed the little girl to her front in order to make her recall
herself in the past so that her alertness would be lower and follow the little girl to go there.
“Look at it, I know you well, right? I can just lure you in by my little simple technique.” Sampson was so
happy and proud of himself on the fact that he knew her well, “I'm the only one who knows you truly
and I really loves you sincerely…”
“Was that so?”
There was a commotion in the darkness as Matthew who was in a black suit and an overcoat walked
over under the protection of bodyguards. The bright shinny waving light flashed across his face.
His strong poise which placed everyone in the state of shock was just like a net that entangled all their
gaze. He just ignored all that and walked to Dolores’s side. Then, he placed her into his arms.
His gaze swept over Sampson’s stunned face and then he sneered at him, “Finally, you are willing to
show up?”
Sampson looked around and he found that he was surrounded. His face was grim and sullen, “You all
did that purposely?”
Only at that time did Samson realize that he was trapped.
Armand stretched his trouser pocket, “You can’t be forgiven as you have made all these mistakes. You
can’t escape from your own sins. Sampson, you will not be able to escape today.”
Out of the blue, Sampson laughed out loud continuously.
