Chapter 514: Chapter 514



.

It was so unreal and dreamy. Whether it was real or not was no longer important. She merely followed her heart as she responded to her entanglement with it. Her soul seemed to have been forcibly ripped away, and only a shell remained that she couldn’t think.

The intense pent-up passion caused her body to sink little by little into his arms.

When she heard him say, “I miss you so much,” in a daze, her eyes turned red for no reason. As her consciousness sank, she only felt that there was a huge hand caressing her belly with incessant kisses.

She snuggled thus in his arms. All her fears receded and she was able to fall asleep peacefully with him by her side.

The next day, when the sun rose, Dolores stirred and wanted to embrace him. However, her touch was met with an icy emptiness. There was no one lying next to her.

She only slowly opened her eyes after blinking several times. The other side was empty. The bed sheet was also clean. It was obvious that no one was there, but last night felt so real and intense.

She felt like she wasn’t dreaming because the breathing and the voice were too familiar. She quickly got up and got out of bed. Then he pushed the bathroom door, but no one was there. He thought maybe she wasn’t here, so he quickly made his way to the living room and heard that there was a sound coming from the kitchen. A thought came to her mind, was it him?

She approached at a brisk pace and blurted out with great anticipation, “Matt…”.

But before she could say it out loud, she already saw the person inside. It wasn’t who she expected it to be. Theresa Gordon was the one inside the kitchen.

Theresa was a little hungry after coming back early in the morning, so she went to the kitchen to prepare something to eat. When she saw Dolores still in her pajamas, she asked, “Are you awake yet? I cooked some hot and sour noodles, do you want to eat some?”.

When Dolores came to her senses, she grabbed her disheveled hair. Was she having hallucinations? She turned around to look at her house. There was no sign that anyone had come by earlier.

After careful thought, how was it possible for him to show up at midnight?

He squeezed his temples. He must be hallucinating. How could he suddenly appear in his room?

That didn’t make any sense. Even if he could come and find this place, it would be impossible for him to sneak into her room without making a sound.

Theresa walked out while carrying the hot and sour noodles. The atmosphere was filled with a strong sour and pungent smell. He frowned as he looked at Theresa, “You’re eating this early, isn’t your stomach going to hurt?”.

Theresa put the hot and sour noodles on the table and sat down as she pushed a chair away, “I just wanted to eat this out of the blue. It should be fine since it’s only one meal.” Dolores turned around and walked into the room, but she seemed to be thinking about something. So he turned around and looked at her, “Did you meet someone?”

“No,” Theresa lowered her head. She had already prepared herself, so she was able to answer Dolores’ questions without any problems. At most, she didn’t dare look her in the eye.

Because she was guilty.

Dolores also didn’t see Matthew on the USB that Oscar handed her. At that moment, the three of them kept a low profile. There were a lot of people and they were also sitting in a corner, so they were not caught in it.

Therefore, it seemed that Matthew must not have known about it, so it was completely impossible for him to show up.

She lowered her eyes and hid her thoughts.

“Why did you ask that?” Theresa looked at her and asked to feel her out, “Is there someone you want to see?”

As she spoke, her gaze fell on her bare feet.

Following his gaze, Dolores lowered her head and just realized she stepped out barefoot. She even forgot to put on her slippers. She quickly explained, “No, I’m just asking. I rushed out because I was very thirsty.”

To prove that what she was saying was true, she went to the table and poured herself a glass of water. Then, he put the glass down after drinking, “I’ll go back to my room to change my clothes.”

After speaking, he hurried back to his room. He was deliberately avoiding the subject. His room looked the same as it had the night before before he went to sleep. Nothing had been moved and he had left no trace. She sat on the side of the bed, put on her slippers and laughed bitterly. She must have been very tired lately to be having these kinds of hallucinations.

She rested her elbows on the table and closed her eyes as she rubbed her eyebrows.

Andrew came in pushing open the door and looked around. He was sure Matthew was already gone when he no longer saw Matthew in the room. He was half unconscious when he felt that someone had come to his room in the morning. But he was too sleepy, so he didn’t open his eyes.

He jumped into Dolores’ arms and asked as he lifted his head to feel around, “Did you sleep well last night, Mommy?”

Dolores opened her eyes to look at her son and reached up to touch his face, “I slept very well. Did you sleep well?”

For the first half of the night, she was haunted by a nightmare. Later, however, she dreamed about him, so she was able to sleep peacefully.

Even though it was a dream, she still felt warm.

Andrew nodded and said she slept well. Then he looked carefully at her expression. It seemed that she hadn’t noticed that someone had come earlier, so he was relieved. He asked her, “Today is already the weekend, do you want to spend a day at home with us?”

“Sure, I’m not going anywhere today. I’ll just stay with you two,” even though there were still a lot of things to do, he needed to rest. It had been a long time since he had spent time with them.

Andrew reached out to touch her belly and said with a bit of anticipation, “When is the baby due?”

“After five more months,” Dolores said subtly.

Ten months pregnant did not mean that one had to be pregnant for ten months before the baby was born. The ten months counted from the month of conception to the month of delivery. It would be ten months from the two extremes.

However, it would be nine months if you counted by whole months.

“Mommy, take me and my sister to the movies to see a movie today, okay?”

Andrew took Dolores’s hand and acted tender, “Okay, Mommy?”

He never acted tender with Dolores easily, so it was hard for people to reject him when he acted tender.

Dolores smiled warmly and said, “Okay.”

“I want to buy popcorn and coke…”

Dolores ruthlessly interrupted him, “Go change your clothes first, wash your face and brush your teeth, okay? Think about this after breakfast, okay?”

“Okay,” Andrew pursed his lips as he wriggled out of her arms and ran back to his room. Dolores also cleared her emotions, got up and headed for the closet to find the clothes she was going to wear today.

In City B, Boyce and Armand were surprised by some news after returning from Country Y.

The incident of Boyce and Jasmine Burke kissing at a college gate that day was photographed by a student and posted on the Internet.

It immediately caused a stir. On that day, Boyce was wearing a uniform, so it was obvious that he was a public servant. It would be fine if he were an ordinary person, but Boyce was not. After all, civil servants had special identities. Everyone watched their every move. This kind of incident would naturally generate public discussion.

People might notice that they had an indecent lifestyle.

Armand could not believe his eyes when he saw the news. The Boyce he knew was a stupid person.

However, this news changed his opinion of Boyce.

He licked his lips, “He really is a beast under a human mask. He’s very young. You can do it if you want, but do you really have to cause such a stir? Are you bragging about how amazing your kissing skills are in front of so many people?”

Judging from the photo, many people were watching from behind.

Also, the photo was taken from the side, so both of their faces were exposed.

You could clearly see their gazes.

Boyce ignored it. This kind of news affected him a lot, as both his and Jasmine’s identities were exposed by people. However, he was a man, so he could take it. At worst, he would be investigated. But the impact on Jasmine would be enormous.

Women were more vulnerable in these kinds of matters. Besides, she was only a freshman in college.
