Chapter 573: Chapter 573



Charles’ car had been reconditioned and they knew who owned the car with just a glance.

Dolores unconsciously gave a glance at Matthew. As expected, when he saw that Charles’ car was parked, his expression turned grim.

Dolores raised her hand, “Let’s get out of the car together.”

Matthew turned to give her a look and their eyes met in the air. Dolores smiled at him and said, “I’ll make it clear with him.”

“Can you understand?” Matthew snorted and added, “We can’t get rid of him.”

Dolores laughed as she thought the way Matthew spoke when he was angry was extremely tender.

She squeezed Matthew’s hand and said in a serious tone, “Trust me.”

Matthew studied her for several seconds and silently admitted it.

He pushed open the door, got out of the car, walked to the passenger seat door and opened the door for her. Dolores ducked down, got out of the car and then put her arm around Matthew’s.

“They’re coming back.” said Tiana, who was behind Charles, as she saw them get out of the car.

Charles watched her. Even though many thoughts had arisen in his heart, she still gave a calm appearance with the slight smile that was always seen on her face. “Tiana, please push me.”

Tiana pushed Charles towards them obediently.

“I’ve come to apologize to you.” Stopping in front of them, Charles broke the silence.

Dolores looked angry without a trace of a smile on her face, “It is true that you should apologize to us. We have brought me great trouble. You have embarrassed me again today. It feels very bad to be pulled by the other person and to be misunderstood as a mistress.”

“I’m sorry…”

The best stories are at gⱯlnσν𝒆𝓁s․𝒄𝗈𝗆 “If you’re really sorry and you know you’ve brought me trouble, you shouldn’t show yourself in front of me again.” Dolores made it clear. Although this might be heartless, it would be good for both parties.

After all, they were both married and should be responsible for their own spouses.

Charles had married, so he should treat his wife well rather than have any feelings for the other woman.

She did not like this aspect of Charles.

Charles had realized that Dolores must have been angry when he hung up the call the last time. He told her, “I promise this won’t happen again. Me and Tiana are here to apologize to you for what happened today at the mall.”

Dolores said in a firm and determined tone, “I accept your apology. Today is a warning to us. Since we have married and have our own families, for the sake of our spouses, we must establish a clear boundary between our relationships. Today’s accident is a warning to us.”

After finishing the words, she glanced at Matthew. The seriousness on her face was replaced by a gentle, slight smile as she said, “Let’s go inside.”

Matthew held her by the waist and said in a cuddly tone, “Okay, I’ll listen to your words.”

She hadn’t rested her gaze on Charles as if she considered him air.

“Wait.”

As they prepared to leave, Tiana stopped them and turned to Dolores, “My mother broke your phone. To show our apologies, this is a new one for you. I hope you can accept our apology and receive this phone.”

She blinked her clear eyes as she looked at Dolores, “I am so sorry for the accident that happened today. My mother has become so unreasonable because she loves me so much. She has realized that she has lost control of herself today.”

He handed Dolores a bag and said, “Please take it.”

Dolores didn’t take it because she didn’t want to receive it.

She wanted to establish a clear boundary between her and Charles for everyone’s sake.

“Dolores, can you please receive it? If not, I will feel uneasy.” Tiana said sincerely and then continued, “The others think I’m a fool and no one wants to be friends with me. Since you are Charles’ friend, you are also my friend. I hope you can forgive us.”

Dolores could be cold-hearted with Charles, but she couldn’t be too mean to Tiana. She reached out and took the phone, “I said I accept your apology.”

Tiana said with a smile, “Thank you, Dolores.”

“We haven’t had dinner. Dolores, can we eat at your place?” Tiana said following Charles’ instructions.

Matthew squeezed Dolores’ waist tighter. He knew she was kind, so he would not refuse this pure girl’s request. Just as he was about to turn it down for her, Dolores spoke up, “Fine. You can eat at my house.”

It was clear to Dolores that such a pure girl would not propose such a request and she thought someone must have taught her how to say it.

“Charles hasn’t had dinner either.” Tiana turned to look at him.

Dolores, however, did not spare a glance at Charles. She said, “Our house is too small to hold too many people. If you are willing, I can invite you to dinner at our house. Of course, only you will be invited. Our table is too small and there isn’t room for another person.”

Tiana hesitated, what was she to do if Charles wasn’t with her?

“Never mind…”

“Tiana, you may go. I have to take care of something. I’ll come pick you up later.” Charles interrupted Tiana with a smile. He was clear about Dolores’ attitude towards him. Now he could only let Tiana approach Dolores for a chance to get to know her.

It was fine if he could take a look at her, even if she didn’t want to talk to him.

Although Tiana didn’t hate Dolores and had a good impression of her, she was still hesitant because she was apprehensive about being left alone in her house without Charles’ company.

“Be obedient.” Charles rested his gaze on her gently. Rolling his eyes, Tiana nodded her head and replied, “I will be obedient.”

After finishing the words, she turned to look at Dolores, “Dolores, thank you for inviting me to dinner at your house.”

Dolores replied, “You’re welcome. Please come in.”

Tiana walked next to Dolores. Matthew let go of Dolores and walked behind them. After entering the villa, he turned around to close the door and shot a cold look at Charles.

Charles didn’t bother and replied with a smile, “Mr. Nelson, thank you for inviting my wife.”

Matthew snorted and then closed the door.

“Dad.” Amanda, who was playing with Cotton in the living room, slid down the couch at the sight of Matthew and ran to him.

Matthew bent down to hug his daughter.

“You’re back at last.” Amanda jumped into his arms, threw her arms around his neck, and sneered.

Matthew picked her up, walked over to the couch and sat down. He gently rubbed her little nose, “Do you miss me?”.

Amanda nodded vigorously, “I looked at the time.” After saying that, she began to complain, “Mommy won’t let me go out, but she herself went out to play all day.”

Dolores glanced at Amanda as she heard her words. Amanda then quickly buried her head in Matthew’s arms.

“What do you want to drink?” asked Dolores to Tiana.

Tiana shook her head, “I’m not thirsty.”

“Have a seat. Don’t hold back.” said Dolores with a smile.

Tiana sat down on the couch. Dolores went to the kitchen and asked Coral to prepare more dishes.

Cotton looked viciously at Tiana and growled menacingly.

Although Cotton was gentle, he still held a certain hostility towards strangers.

Tiana was a bit startled.

Amanda finally noticed Tiana when she heard Cotton’s growl and yelled, “Cotton, don’t be rude.”

Cotton immediately became obedient. He wagged his tail, ran to her and rubbed against her body.

Matthew put Amanda down and said, “I’m going upstairs to change my clothes.”

Amanda replied, “Okay.”

Matthew didn’t go straight upstairs, but went out the door and carried the things Dolores had bought into the house before he went upstairs.

“Excuse me, who are you?” Amanda studied Tiana from head to toe.

She hadn’t seen her before.

Tiana replied with a smile, “My name is Tiana Meyer, what’s yours?”

“I’m Amanda Nelson. You can call me Amy too. As for my name, it’s a long story, so I won’t elaborate.”

Amanda looked very helpless.

“Don’t be afraid of Cotton. He doesn’t bite people.” Amanda rubbed Cotton’s fur and even invited Tiana to rub him, “Tiana, would you like to touch him? He’s so obedient.”

Tiana didn’t dare to touch him because she was still frightened by his fierce look now.

Amanda lifted Tiana’s hand and placed it on Cotton’s body.
