Dolores was baffled as she didn’t understand why he had suddenly become so serious.
“What’s wrong with you? Do you forget that they’ve changed their names?” she asked.
Matthew didn’t forget it, “I’m used to call that and I don’t want to change.” As he spoke, his gaze rested
on her stomach, “When this child is born, let him follow your surname whether it’s a boy or a girl.”
He looked up at her and said gently, “Your father only has one daughter, leave an heir for him.”
He was being serious as he should think more of her since she was thinking of him.
It was fake if she wasn’t touched. She glared at him, “Why are you being so melodramatic? Do you
want me to cry?”
He smiled, hugged her and kissed her forehead, “I can’t let you cry.”
“Tsk-tsk, who am I messing with? I’ve been stuffed with a mouthful of dog food once I just go out. Don’t
you want me to live?”
Armand Bernie stepped on the doorsill and leaned against the door with his hands on his chest,
watching the scene that had just happened with great interest.
His eyes which were full of tenderness turned indifferent at this moment.
He slowly looked up and said, “Jealousy makes you ugly.”
Afterwards, he ignored Armand and walked in with Dolores in his arms, as if he was invisible.
Armand was speechless.
Was he jealous?
Yes, he was indeed jealous.
Wasn’t he pathetic enough? Why did he irritate him?
Was he thinking that he was easily bullied?
He cried out in his heart, ‘Heartless person who forgets his buddy when he has his wife!’ He felt that he
was a pity wretch who had been abandoned at this moment.
Theresa Gordon didn’t forgive him and even his buddy only wanted his wife.
As he said the word ‘heartless’, Matthew who hadn’t gone far heard his voice, turned around and
asked, “What did you say?”
Armand didn’t dare to talk anything as he was scared. He quickly rearranged his words, “Erm …your
two children want to eat ice cream. I’m going out now, I want to ask if you guys have anything to buy. I’ll
bring it back to you.”
Matthew asked her, “Do you have anything you want to eat?”
“Cake, cream cake.”
She hadn’t eaten anything since this morning and suddenly missed that taste of cream.
“Which flavour?” he asked again.
She thought for a moment, “Mango.”
Armand said, “Okay, I’ll buy some more fruit by the way.”
“Um.” Matthew replied. They won’t be able to leave today and had to wait until tomorrow. It wasn’t that
convenient to buy things here, so he needed to drive outside to buy.
The best thing about this place was that it was quiet.
At this hour, there was sunlight in the yard and they walked into the hall. This wooden house was cool
during summer and the temperature inside and outside the house was totally different, as if they had
entered an air-conditioned room. In the middle of house, there was a square table. Jayden Nelson and
Andrew Nelson were sitting opposite each other and there was a chessboard on the table. Two of them
were playing chess. Andrew was facing problem and thinking of the next step to turn the tables.
They didn’t even notice that someone had entered the room.
Jayden intended to cultivate his patience and attentiveness, so he didn’t rush him and waited quietly for
him to find out the flaws in the game.
Matthew and Dolores consciously lightened their steps and didn’t disturb them, but walked inside along
the wall from the door. At the corner near the window, Amanda crouched there and a large Samoyed
dog was lying on the floor. Its fur was snowy white without a stray hair, like a snowball.
Amanda stroked its head with her hand and looked affectionate towards it. She whispered, “Why are
you so cute?”
Dolores squatted down and touched her hair, “Do you like this dog a lot?”
Amanda tilted her head and threw herself into her arms surprisingly when she saw Dolores, “Mummy.”
She wrapped her arms around her neck tightly, “Why are you here?”
She smoothed her hair, “I miss you, so I come.”
Andrew’s chin rested on her shoulder and he turned her head to look at Matthew, “Daddy, have you
and mummy made up?”
“When do we quarrel?” he carried her daughter out of her arms and pinched her cheeks, “We are just
separated temporarily, we’re not quarrelling and getting angry, understand?”
Amanda curled her lips as she didn’t care why they were separated and she just wanted them to stay
together forever, so that they could live together all the time.
“Daddy, can I keep this dog? I really like it a lot.” She pointed at the Samoyed that was lying on the
ground.
Matthew didn’t agree straight away. Even though the dog looked cute, its size was large and he was
worried that it might hurt her.
“Daddy, please.” She grabbed his collar and pouted.
“This dog is very docile, it won’t hurt anyone and it’s trained.” Kevin Forbis walked in and saw Dolores,
“You’re here too?”
However, he knew well in his mind that the reason why Matthew had gone and returned should be
because of her.
He had heard from Jayden about her departure. She should have appeared in White City to attend
Charles’s wedding.
She nodded.
Andrew lost this game again and he was unwilling, “Let’s have another game.”
Jayden touched his head, “It’s good to have a fighting spirit, but we’ll fight again tonight.”
He stood up and he averted his eyes. Andrew was absent-minded as he hadn’t won a single game yet
and it was the first time he felt frustrated.
Jayden deliberately didn’t compromise as he was smart and hadn’t suffered a defeat, which wasn’t a
good thing.
As the saying goes, success comes only with hard work.
He had expectations for his grandson.
The expectations he had for Andrew was even higher than he had for Matthew at that time.
He intended to cultivate him as he was young, yet mature-minded and somewhat proud.
It wasn’t a bad thing to deal a blow once in a while.
When he saw Dolores, soon he knew why Matthew hadn’t left.
“Come out with me for a moment,” He said to Dolores.
“Yes,” Dolores said. She knew that he must have something to say to her, then followed him out of the
hall.
