Dolores Flores knew that if there wasn’t enough reason, she couldn’t convince Boyce Shawn. The
reason she chose to send the message to him was because she could trust him, and she also believed
that he could keep it as a secret.
“I will be going to meet Charles White.” She had gone to Charles’ place last time, and knew of the hotel
he resided.
Boyce twitched the corner of his eyes; he knew clearly how Matthew Nelson hated Charles so much.
“Boyce, considering that you and Matthew have been brothers for a long time. What do you think I
should do?” Dolores was actually conflicted deep inside.
She was afraid that because of her own selfishness, it would make Matthew regret.
At the end of the day, Victoria Forbis was his mother.
Boyce was baffled, “What do you want to say?”
“I am saying that if Victoria is Matthew’s real mother, should I tell him?” She stared at Boyce’s face, as
she wanted an answer which would calm her down.
“How is that possible? If this is false, it’s totally impossible.” Boyce refused to believe it.
This was unthinkable.
Victoria was Matthew’s mother?
Stop making this kind of a joke.
“What I’m saying is true. If it’s true, should I tell him?” Dolores’ expression and voice clearly didn’t seem
to be joking. Boyce then went silent.
After a moment, Boyce slowly spoke, “I don’t know, but I think that it would probably be hard deal with.
Telling him that the person he has resented for a long time is actually his real mother? What kind of
behavior and state of mind should he use to face this matter?”
He turned his head to Dolores, “Is this real?”
He felt that this was too strange; Victoria was Matthew’s mother?
“Jolene Harris and Jayden Nelson’s marriage is between two clans. Have you heard of this?” Dolores
closed her lips, and her voice sounded low.
She felt that fate was fooling people.
“I had heard about it.”
“That time, Jolene liked another person, and had no feelings for Jayden. After the marriage, both of
them were respectful and kind to each other like close friends, and they didn’t have body contact.
Jolene felt sorry for Jayden, so she wanted to find a woman to be with him.”
“That woman is Victoria?” Boyce only felt shocked. How could there be such a thing.
She was finding a woman for her husband?
It was just because she didn’t like him?
“You probably know the strength of the Harris family. Jolene wanted to give this child a legitimate
identity, so she lied. No one in the Harris family knew about it, and only the people involved knew the
truth.” She didn’t elaborate on the details of the matter.
Boyce didn’t know what to say.
“But why are you going to see Charles? Don’t tell me that this thing has something to do with Charles?”
Boyce felt that this old matter had involvement with many people.
“Since you had been to White City, you might have some idea of Charles’ life story. He is Nathan
White’s adopted child, while Nathan was Victoria’s first love… That time, Jeffery Harris found out the
relationship between Victoria and Jayden, and he felt that Victoria was the third party destroying his
sister’s marriage…”
Boyce somehow had understood everything. That time in White City and Kevin Forbis, as well as the
Gambiered Canton Gauze were related to the Forbis family.
“Charles had found the doctor who delivered Victoria’s baby. His goal is to join forces with Matthew,
and bring down Jeffery. His adoptive father was harmed by Jeffery when he was alive.” Dolores
explained.
“You don’t want Matthew to know about this?” Even though it was a question, it was in a positive mood.
Dolores clasped her hands together; she felt uncomfortable of the ambivalence, “I think that it is unfair
to him, for he have to face the consequences of the things done by the past generation. If Jeffery
knows the truth, I do not know how the things will turn out.”
“How much hatred Jeffery has for Victoria, can’t you see it from your perspective? When they are close
to one another, he would have already gone lunatic. If he would know the truth…”
Was not it obvious? Things would have gone crazy.
“I don’t know. What if he would know about it, would he be angry at me?” Dolores choked a bit, as this
matter gave her a difficult problem.
“Remember your original intention. About the future things, just think of them in the future. I believe that
Matthew would understand why you do this. Perhaps, this secret will be buried as time goes on.” Boyce
stopped the car by the side of the road. He didn’t know how to comfort Dolores, and then passed a
tissue to her.
Dolores didn’t take it; she wiped the corner of her eyes, “I’m fine.”
It was not because of herself, but rather, she felt bad for Matthew.
Boyce looked at her face. She was always slim, even when pregnant; she didn’t gain weight at all, and
looked very weak. However, when she was doing things, it didn’t look like that she couldn’t withstand its
difficulty.
She and Victoria were close; maybe it’s because they knew of this horrendous past.
Now, Charles brought this matter back, but she still dealt with it calmly, and minimized the damage
caused by this matter.
If she thought of this incident cool-headedly, then it would be better for everyone, no matter in which
perspective they see it.
If Matthew’s parentage was revealed, then he would be considered as an illegitimate child?
He would not only be judge by other people of his identity, but also how could he accept being deluded
for a long time?
Should he hate himself, or hate those who deceived him?
If the truth was unraveled which everyone would be fussing about it, then what could it change? Who
would benefit from it?
Boyce reactivated the car, and drove, “I somehow understand on why Matthew likes you.”
His voice was low, and Dolores didn’t hear it clearly, “Hmm?”
“Nothing.” Boyce focused on driving the car.
They soon arrived at that hotel. Boyce stopped the car, and got off. He came to the side of Dolores,
took the wheelchair from the back, and helped her getting down the car.
Boyce pushed her to the elevator. As they reached that floor, she turned her look to Boyce, “You wait
for me here.”
“Let me go in with you.” He was worried since Charles knew of her thoughts; he was also the one who
brought her here, so he had to guarantee her safety.
“Okay then.” He knew about this anyway, and there was nothing to hide.
When they reached the door of the room, Boyce rang the doorbell. Quickly, the door was opened.
Charles wasn’t surprised at all when he saw Dolores.
She purposely interrupted him by the hospital, and he knew that she wouldn’t want Matthew to know
about it.
Charles had anticipated that Dolores would come, so he let Tom to return to his room. He glanced at
Boyce, “I want to talk to Dolores privately.”
“Her body now is still not well; I have to guard her.” Boyce’s attitude was clear and tough.
Charles laughed, “You are able to come with her, so presumably you know what it is about. You have to
understand that the initiative is with me. I can choose not to discuss.”
The look on Boyce’s face changed.
“Boyce, it’s alright. You stay by the door. If there’s anything, I will call you.” Dolores looked at him, and
shook her head for him not to be impetuous, “He wouldn’t do anything to me.”
Boyce took a look at Charles, and turned around walking out from the room.
Charles closed the door and looked at Dolores. He made no effort to hide his feelings for her, “Say, do
you think I should be happy, or be sad?”
