When she arrived at the entrance of the villa, Wendy parked the car at the curb. She did not get out of
the car immediately but lowered the window to look at the villa. She found that Armand was not in City
B, and Matthew was not in a hurry as before.
Did he give up, or was there something else going on?
She gently rubbed her hand on the steering wheel and pondered the possibilities of this matter.
In the end, she could not figure out what the key point of the matter was, and decided to find out from
Dolores and Matthew. She put the car keys in her bag, pushed the door open and got out of the car,
and walked towards the villa.
When she reached the door, she raised her hand and rang the doorbell.
It wasn't long before someone came to the door. Coral stood at the door and asked, "Who are you
looking for?"
"I'm looking for Mr. Nelson and his wife. Are they in?" Wendy asked.
"Please wait a moment while I inform them." Coral didn't let her in. She had never seen this woman
before, and Matthew had explained that no one she didn't know could be let in.
After what happened last time, Amanda was not in a good state of mind. They were afraid that if a
stranger came into the house, it would affect her mood.
"Okay, please hurry up. It's hot outside." Wendy said.
Coral nodded, and as she closed the door, she asked, "What should I call you?"
Wendy replied, "My last name is Miller. You can call me Wendy."
"Okay." Coral closed the door and headed upstairs.
There was no one in the house but Dolores with Amanda. Jayden and Kevin had gone to the old house
with Andrew, and Matthew was not home either. Lucy was in their house as a nanny when the incident
happened and they need to be held responsible. Matthew went to negotiate with Lucy's family to settle
the matter, and only Dolores was at home with Amanda.
In the room, Amanda was lying in Dolores' arms and didn't say anything. She just grabbed her collar
and was afraid that she would disappear.
Even when she was asleep, she would still grab her collar.
And she woke up several times throughout the night.
She was extremely upset inside.
Coral was afraid of alarming Amanda, so she gently pushed the door in and asked in a whisper, "Is
Simona asleep?"
Dolores said no.
Coral whispered, "There's a lady downstairs, whose last name is Miller, looking for you. Do you know
her? Should I let her in?"
Dolores hadn't been in the best of spirits the last few days. At first, she was worried because Boyce's
whereabouts were unknown, and now she was worried about Amanda, fearing that it would cause her
psychological damage and be affected mentally. Combined with the growing months of pregnancy, she
also got tired easily.
Hearing that her last name was Miller, Dolores hadn't reacted to who it was. After all, they had only met
each other once. She was half lying on the bed, with Amanda resting on her arm. Her arm was a little
numb and she moved her body, "Did she say what she was doing here?"
Coral shook her head, "She only said she came to see you guys."
"Just tell her I'm not available for visitors right now," Dolores said.
Coral said yes, "I'll go down and get rid of her."
Dolores nodded and Coral walked out of the room. As she closed the door, Dolores asked, "Did she
say what her name was?"
"She said her name was Wendy," Coral replied.
Wendy? Wasn’t that Boyce's girlfriend? She rubbed her forehead. So it was her. But what was she
doing here?
After all, she was Boyce's girlfriend, and it wasn't good for them to shut the door on her.
"Coral, let her in."
Dolores sat up from the bed, and Coral saw that she was struggling to pick up Amanda, so she came
over and tried to hold her for her. But as soon as she touched her, Amanda wrapped her arms around
Dolores' neck and held her tighter, fearing that she would let her go.
Dolores patted her back and whispered soothingly, "Good girl, I'm not leaving. Just let go of your hand.
I can barely breathe."
Amanda loosened up a little but continued to hold her very tightly, fearing that Coral would hug her.
Dolores stroked her daughter's hair. She knew it was the shock that made her this way, and her mind
needed careful care, "Coral, you go down first. I'll go down later."
Coral nodded.
Dolores patted her daughter, "It's all over. It won't happen again."
Amanda didn’t say a word. She just wrapped her arms around her neck, and Dolores kissed her
forehead, "We have a guest downstairs. I'll carry you downstairs, okay?"
Amanda didn’t say anything, but just stayed in her arms and didn’t come down.
Dolores stroked her head and stood up with her in her arms. Amanda was really much heavier now.
She wrapped her arms around her daughter's waist and held her over her bulging belly, then held her
buttocks with her other hand. She just looked at the road against her daughter's shoulder, and when
she reached the stairway, she was afraid that it would be unbalanced, so she switched to holding her
daughter with one hand and holding the railing with the other, and walked down.
Wendy, who had already been invited in by Coral, saw that Dolores was struggling to hold Amanda and
came over to help, "Simona, your mommy is pregnant. It's not convenient for her to hold you. Let me
hold you."
With that, she reached out to hug Amanda. Dolores said, "No, she doesn't like to be held by others ..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Amanda let out a cry.
Wendy hurriedly withdrew her hand.
Coral, who was pouring water for Wendy, heard the sound and immediately came over and asked,
"What's wrong?"
Wendy was a little embarrassed. She had wanted to help.
"I didn't know she would cry." She explained.
Coral looked at her and reached out to help Dolores, "You take it easy."
Dolores patted her daughter and told Wendy not to mind, "She's scared and doesn't want to be held by
others."
“So that's it!" Wendy followed suit and came over to sit on the couch.
Dolores sat her daughter on her lap and looked over at Wendy, "Why did you have time to come over?
Is there something going on?"
"I haven't seen Armand for the past two days, and I wonder what he's been up to?" Wendy asked.
Armand said when he went to see Boyce that he didn't tell the Miller family that Boyce had been found,
and asked her and Matthew not to say anything either.
Armand said that Wendy and Boyce were not right for each other.
She didn’t know if it was good to hide her, but she felt some of Armand's words make sense. If Wendy
really loved Boyce, she should be able to wait for him for a month or two.
Now she thought that Armand must be trying to test Wendy's true feelings for Boyce.
She didn't think it was right to lie, but she had promised Armand and couldn't back out.
"Didn't he go to find Boyce?" As she spoke, Dolores lowered her eyes.
Taking the opportunity to pat her daughter, she avoided Wendy's searching gaze.
Armand had gone to find Boyce?
Wendy wondered if she had been wrong. They were still trying to find Boyce? And they were just
widening the scope? So she didn't see Armand?
But then Dolores acted like she was avoiding her.
If he was really looking for Boyce, what was there to avoid?
She looked down, "I know you all must think Boyce and I are not suitable because I was married.
However, I really like him. I missed him once before because I wasn’t a shrewd judge of character. I
was very surprised and happy that he could accept me then. Now that his whereabouts are unknown, I
am very sad and can not sleep at night. He called you sister-in-law, so I think you should be familiar
with him and know what kind of person he is."
Dolores said, "I know. He is indeed a man worth trusting."
"Now I'm at a loss, and I don't know what to do. Can you help me with some ideas?" Wendy came over
and grabbed Dolores' hand, "My mom told me to give up, but I don't want to. Whether he's alive or
dead, I want to see him."
But then Dolores acted like she was avoiding her.
