Chapter 359: Chapter 359



.

Dolores Flores sat next to Matthew. Jeffery Harris was still talking about the matter of Jolene Harris’ past, “At that time, Jolene didn’t really want to marry your father. She agreed because it was for the good of the Harris Family. At the time, I saw that Jayden Nelson seemed smart and talented, plus he was also very capable. I thought they could cultivate their relationship after they got married. However, I was wrong.”

Jeffery was regretful and upset.

His gaze did not show the slightest hint of innuendo. If there was a possibility of readjusting time, he would not let his sister marry him.

Although Dolores was in the living room, she was paying attention to Marina.

She saw Marina put the china that Matthew had used in a separate place.

Luckily, she had changed it earlier. Otherwise…

He only hoped he could pass it by.

He had done all he could and could only accept fate.

After a while, when Marina came out and heard Jeffery still talking about Jolene’s affair, she walked over to him and stopped him, “Are you drunk?”

Jeffery shook her hand, “I’m not drunk. How could I be drunk when I’ve only had one glass of wine.”

“Then why are you talking so much today?”

“I feel bad in my heart, am I not allowed to drink and talk?” Jeffery glared. The tense atmosphere felt a little less tense.

Marina smiled and said to Matthew, “You can go back first if you’re busy. I don’t think he’ll be done talking for a while.”

Matthew did not know Marina’s intention. However, Dolores knew that Marina definitely wanted to take the samples of the china that Matthew had used.

This time she had found out and had the opportunity to change it. However, if they hadn’t done it successfully this time, they still had to find another opportunity to get the samples.

She held Matthew’s arm, “Let’s go back first. I still have things to do.”

“Then I won’t ask you to stay any longer.” Marina asked them looking at Jeffery as he showed a helpless face.

Matthew stood up and looked at Jeffery, “I’ll go first.”

Jeffery was in deep pain and did not hear Matthew’s voice. Marina replied, “Okay. You can go first. I’ll take care of him.”

Matthew looked at Marina. He noticed Marina’s abnormality today.

She seemed to want him to leave. In the past, she used to ask him to stay longer.

Dolores tugged his sleeve and smiled as she said, “Samuel and Simona are still waiting for us.”

Matthew thought about finding out the reason as he turned away.

Marina hugged Jeffery as she said, “I won’t fire them.”

Dolores motioned to him, “You don’t have to see us off. We’ll leave now.”

As they walked out the door, Dolores’ hands holding Matthew’s arm loosened slightly.

Matthew lowered his gaze and looked at her calmly, “Is something bothering you?”. Today, Dolores seemed to be a little abnormal.

Dolores was taken aback. She thought for a moment and replied, “I promised Samuel and Simona to go home earlier.”

“Is this the matter that bothers you?” Matthew raised his eyebrows.

Dolores cocked her head to the side and leaned into his embrace as she acted like a spoiled child, “It is. Can’t it be?”

Matthew liked it when she acted like a spoiled child in front of him. He reached out his hands and hugged her. He buried his head in her neck, “It’s okay. Everything you say is right. I’ll listen to you.”

The warm air he exhaled touched her skin. It stung. She nudged him, “Okay, don’t.”

Matthew kissed her lips and smiled as if there was a vague feeling, “I should get back sooner.”

After saying that, he gave Dolores no chance to react and refuse as he pulled her into the car.

On the way back, Dolores looked at her phone to see the video Samuel Flores had sent. She noticed that the Central Television Network had responded to this video and that it said they would let the department investigate the incident.

Dolores suddenly became suddenly serious. She turned her head and looked at Matthew, “You, son…”.

“Yes?”

Matthew turned his head.

Dolores handed him his phone.

It didn’t seem like a serious matter to Matthew. Innocent people wouldn’t be afraid of being investigated.

If he didn’t behave well, he deserved to be investigated.

Anyway, his son did a great job.

Dolores put her phone away. She took a deep breath. She hoped that the fact that this video was released by Samuel would not be known to others.

Matthew knew what she was worried about. He assured her, “No one will know.”

By the time he knew what Samuel was going to do, he had already asked someone to erase all traces.

No one would ever know that the video was released by Samuel.

Dolores was relieved. At that moment, the phone in her pocket rang. It was a call from the nurse at the hospital. Dolores had left her phone number with the nurse caring for Theresa Gordon so she could call her if anything happened.

“According to the attending physician, the patient could be moved to a regular ward. However, the patient is not willing to be moved.”

Dolores said, “Okay, I understand. I will go there now.”

After hanging up the phone, Dolores said, “You’ll have to take me to the hospital.”

Although Matthew didn’t ask her, he knew why she wanted to go to the hospital. He made a turn at the intersection across the street.

Soon, the car pulled into the hospital parking lot.

Dolores and Matthew got out of the car and entered the lobby. They took an elevator to the 21st floor, where the ICU was located.

In the hallway, Armand Bernie was pestering the nurse, “Please let me come in to say a few words to you. Just a few words.”

“It’s not that I won’t let you in. The patient doesn’t want to see you. I don’t have a choice. The patient’s condition is unique in that she cannot be stimulated. So please calm down and wait until the patient recovers. After that, it doesn’t matter if you meet her or talk to her. Please don’t make it difficult for me.” The nurse struggled to convince him.

When Dolores saw this scene, she knew why Theresa was unwilling to be moved to the regular ward.

She walked quickly toward them, “Armand.”

Armand turned and looked at Dolores, who rushed toward him. He released the nurse, “Dolores…”

“Do you know where you are, you’re in the hospital.” said Dolores in a stern voice.

Armand clearly knew what this place was. He felt bad in his heart and wanted to take a look at Theresa.

“I can’t control myself.”

“Do you want to apologize to her or do you want to repent?” Dolores’ words were harsh and cutting. “Do you know what her condition is now? Disfigurement, miscarriage. Do you know how hard it is for a woman when she loses her child and is disfigured? If you still have a heart, stop bothering her. Let her be quiet, let her calm down and recover, okay?”

Armand understood all this, “I just want to take a look at her, okay?”

“She wouldn’t want you to see her in her current state.” Dolores took a deep breath, “I won’t keep anything from you. I’ve found another hospital for her. I’ll take her away. When she’s better, I’ll tell you the address. At that time, you can talk together. But until she recovers, don’t come to bother her.”

Hearing this, Armand panicked. Did he want to take Theresa away? “Dolores…”

“That is Theresa’s intention.” Dolores stopped him.

Armand looked at Matthew for help, “Matthew…”

“I can’t help you.” Matthew turned him down decisively. He listened to his wife.

He also thought that Armand and Theresa should calm down for a while. They couldn’t solve the problem in their hearts even if they got together now.

Armand was very sorry. “I just want to take a look at her. Why do they all reject me?”

“Is it necessary for you to see her? Have you thought about Theresa’s feelings? She’s disfigured. What kind of mentality do you want her to have when she sees you? How can you be so selfish? Why do you only think of yourself and not her?”
