He would like to see how long this secret could be hidden.
Dolores slightly narrowed her eyes as no wonder Marina had kept the cutlery and dishes that had been
used by Matthew last time she went to the Harris family.
Now, she knew the purpose, it turned out to be Charles who was making trouble behind it.
“It was you actually!” Dolores said in a serious tone.
She had really misunderstood this time.
Jeffery was suspicious because Marina had overheard her conversation with Victoria.
Jeffery had ordered someone to investigate and they had not yet returned.
So, this matter did not have much to do with Charles.
However, it was just that Dolores had misunderstood now.
It was no wonder that Dolores was unhappy since Charles wanted to reveal the past secret.
“How would it benefit you?” Dolores looked at him sternly.
Charles was somewhat startled when he saw Dolores’s cold gaze. It was the first time that Dolores
looked at him with such a gaze.
His chest was stuffy.
He did not express much on his face, saying calmly, “You know the answer. Why do you need to ask
knowingly?”
If Matthew was Victoria’s son, he would know that Victoria had been imprisoned by Jeffery in the past.
The relationship between Matthew and Jeffery would definitely break up.
At that moment, Charles could take revenge for Nathan without being stopped by Matthew. Moreover,
Matthew would probably work with Charles to take revenge on Jeffery.
Dolores understood Charles’s intention.
However, he was selfish in this way.
“If you want to take revenge, you should do it with your own ability. It is not what a gentleman will do by
taking someone else’s shortcoming.” Dolores did not want this secret to be revealed either.
Now, she was in a good condition.
She clenched her hands as Jeffery was already suspicious and was now investigating Matthew’s
identity. She worried the cutlery and dishes that she had switched would not deter Jeffery’s
investigation.
Now, she could only request Charles not to interfere in this matter. Since Charles had a strong
foundation in White City, if he did something to Jeffery’s people or just stopped them from investigating,
Jeffery’s people would be unable to find out anything.
She looked at Charles seriously and said earnestly, “Just think of it that I beg you not to interfere with
this matter. Jeffery has made a mistake and he will be punished sooner or later. Why are you in a
hurry?”
Charles chuckled, “Do you believe that there is justice in this world, virtue has its reward, evil its
retribution?”
“Why don’t I believe?” Dolores immediately answered.
Charles stared at Dolores fondly while gripping the armrests tightly. There was a fine layer of
perspiration on his palms.
“I can promise you, not because I have set aside my determination to take revenge for my adoptive
father. But I don’t want to watch you worrying about this matter.”
After he finished speaking, he turned his wheelchair and headed towards the door outside.
He still chose to help Dolores.
He did not want her to be difficult and keep worrying about this matter.
There would be a chance to take revenge sooner or later. Revenge is a dish best served cold since he
was still young.
Dolores was very uncomfortable as she vaguely felt that this matter would be revealed sooner or later
even though Charles did not interfere.
She looked at Charles’s back and said from the bottom of her heart, “Thank you.”
Anyway, this matter could still be hidden if he did not interfere.
Charles headed to the door and said, “I want more than a thank you. But I know that you may not be
able to give me something else that I want. If you really want to thank me, just owe me a favour…”
Dolores promised him at the door, “Fine. If you need me in the future, just tell me as long as I can do it.
I will never refuse.”
Charles frowned and smiled, “With your words, then I’m not at a disadvantage.”
Charles came out of the clothing store. Tom assisted him into the car at the door and they left.
Dolores sat on the sofa motionlessly. She looked at the phone placed on the table. She wanted to
contact Marina and sound her out.
However, she was afraid that it would arouse her suspicion if she called her rashly.
She was now in a dilemma.
She did not know what to do for a while.
She sighed and a shadow appeared in the doorway when she was about to go upstairs. She turned
around and saw Marina walking to her with her handbag.
Dolores stopped walking and turned around as she headed downstairs. She greeted her with a smile,
“What brings you here?”
Marina smiled while narrowing her eyes. She took a glance around the reception hall. Since it was a
custom-made clothing store, there were many models in front of the glass window wearing beautiful
dresses and wedding gowns. Each of them was gorgeous and unique.
Marina married early and Jeffery was old-fashioned. He was close-minded as Marina was not allowed
to wear a wedding gown when she got married. There were few Chinese traditional dresses at that time
and she was wearing a cheongsam to complete the wedding with Jeffery.
All women would dream of wearing white wedding dresses, but now she can only regret it.
Marina withdrew her gaze, “Your uncle is not at home and I’m alone at home. So, I thought of coming
to find you and have a meal with me.”
Dolores agreed and welcomed her invitation. She just wanted to sound her out, but she did not expect
Marina to come by herself.
“You don’t think I’m taking your time, do you?” Marina said with a smile.
Dolores replied, “No, I’m glad that you can remember me.”
Marina did not stop watching the clothes around the hall from the moment she came in. Her eyes
flashed brightly as she seemed to be impressed with the clothes.
Dolores noticed that she was impressed with the clothes. Then, Dolores took the initiative to walk over
and hold her arm, “Let me show you around.”
Marina smiled and agreed.
The clothes in the glass window on the ground floor were not for sale. They were displayed for the
designers to present their ideas.
Guests could come in and pick a designer to help them design their clothes according to these clothes.
Of course, many people came for a particular designer.
Marina reached out to touch a wedding dress in the window. The gauze was soft and smooth as she
felt comfortable touching it in her hands.
“What kind of material is this, it is quite comfortable to touch.”
Marina asked casually since she did not have any research on these either.
This kind of material was made in a replica of Gambiered Canton Gauze when Gambiered Canton
Gauze was withdrawn from the fabric market. It was very close to Gambiered Canton Gauze after
improvement. The only drawback was that it would wrinkle. Gambiered Canton Gauze would not
wrinkle and it had a milky and silky feeling. This fabric was still not exactly as good as Gambiered
Canton Gauze.
“Do you like this material? I can use this fabric and make a dress for you. What kind of style do you
like? I think you should suit this kind.”
She pointed to a dress. The weather now was getting warmer, so it would not be conservative by
wearing a jacket outside.
She could see that Marina was very conservative.
Marina smiled as she was somehow unbearable to do so in her heart.
She had come this time not simply to find Dolores and have a meal.
It was rather a trick by her and Jeffery.
Dolores had guessed wrongly.
Matthew’s sample that they had gotten was not to compare with Victoria but to compare with the DNA
left behind by Jolene before she died.
However, Dolores had replaced Matthew’s sample with her own sample. Therefore, it was Dolores who
did the comparison with the DNA left behind by Jolene before she died.
