Chapter 574: Chapter 574



.

Cotton’s fur was very soft and silky. He liked people rubbing his fur on his lower jaw and head, as he felt very comfortable when people rubbed his fur in those places.

Taking Tiana’s hand, Amanda guided her to stroke Cotton’s fur over and over again. Cotton sat by her feet obediently and lifted her head so they could rub her fur.

M๏гє ยק๔คՇєร ןภ ɢคlภ๏שєlร.ς๏๓ He was squinting his round eyes and seemed to really enjoy it. He even rubbed his head against Tiana’s hand from time to time.

He was so obedient and so cute.

Tiana secretly sighed in relief and said with a smile, “He’s a lot of fun when he’s not fierce.”

“Yes, I think so.” Amanda held up Tiana’s hand, “Let’s go to my room.”

Tiana hesitated, “Isn’t that inappropriate?”

Her mother kept telling her to be polite when she visited other people’s homes. How could she go into her bedroom?

“Why is it inappropriate? Since you can come to my house, surely you’re friends with my dad or my mom, right?”

Tiana thought about it and thought his words were true. Charles’ friend was like her friend.

Amanda then led her into the bedroom.

Dolores helped Coral clean up the food stuff as she found it an exhausting job to do it alone. But after cleaning it for a while, Coral pushed her out of the kitchen, saying she was bringing her trouble.

But in reality, Coral didn’t want her to do the housework.

Dolores could only get out of the kitchen. The driver had put all the things she had bought for Theresa on the couch. Dolores walked over, picked them up and headed for Theresa’s bedroom.

Theresa was awake and Andrew was playing beside her.

Dolores furrowed her eyebrows and said, “Theresa needs her rest. Why are you playing in her room?”

Before Andrew could explain, Theresa justified, “I was the one who asked to stay here. I had been sleeping for a long time and now I’m not sleepy at all. I was really bored staying alone, so I asked him to come and join me.”

Dolores reached over and touched her forehead. It didn’t feel cold. Apparently, she still had a fever. A patient with a fever should drink water as much as possible. She asked Theresa, “Are you thirsty?”

“No.” Theresa pointed to the kettle on the bedside table, “I’ve almost drunk the whole kettle of water. I still want to eat. I don’t want to have a stomach full of water later.”

Seeing that he was in a good mood, as if he had not been influenced, Dolores began to doubt his thoughts.

At first, she wanted to ask him about what had happened at the temple. However, as Andrew was resentful, she found it inconvenient to ask him like this. Dolores took out the clothes she had bought and hung them in the closet.

Theresa said with a smile, “Thanks for spending one on me.”

“Hmm, remember to pay me back when you’re recovered.” Dolores made the joke deliberately.

Half lying on the bed, Theresa said, “I don’t have any money. If you really want me to pay you back for the favor, I can turn myself in to you.”

“I don’t want you,” Dolores said disdainfully.

“I don’t eat too much and I can work – why won’t you take me?”

Dolores turned her down decisively, “No.”

Dolores put the underwear and pajamas in the sink. These clothes that were going to directly touch the skin had to be washed before wearing them.

Watching Dolores wash the clothes for her, Theresa felt her nose turn sour.

She was so good to her.

She cared for her like she was her sister and it made her feel warm.

“Oh, I’ve lost. Renee, it’s your turn.” Andrew passed the tablet computer to Theresa.

Theresa adjusted her mood and curved her lips into a smile, “You lost really fast.”

The game they were playing was called “Idiom Solitaire” and it got harder and harder as it progressed.

Andrew pointed to an idiom, “Do you know what this idiom is?”.

Theresa, “…”

Although she was a citizen of the country, she had grown up abroad. Therefore, she wasn’t very familiar with the idioms and didn’t know the answer either.

“Let’s play the other game.” She proposed.

Andrew snorted contemptuously.

“Are you looking down on me?” Theresa put down the tablet computer and pinched his cheeks, “You should respect the elders and take good care of the young.”

Andrew cocked his head to one side and smiled, “So which group are you in, the old or the young?”

“Brat, you dare to describe me as old!”

“You said to respect the old and take care of the young. But, apparently, you don’t give the impression of being young. So you’re the old man.”

“You can’t say that.”

“You’re too pushy.

When Dolores came out with a tub of laundry, she glanced at the two people arguing with each other, went to the balcony and hung up the clothes.

After hanging out the clothes, she noticed that Theresa and Andrew had stopped frolicking and were fixing their eyes on the tablet computer screen as if they were watching something amusing.

Dolores left the bathtub, walked over and asked, “What are you watching?”

Theresa and Andrew lifted their heads and looked toward her simultaneously and said in chorus, “What do you think?”

Dolores, “?”

With confusion, she glanced at the screen and then opened her eyes. When she went shopping at the mall today, someone took pictures of her and posted them on the Internet.

The most striking one was the photo of Matthew kissing her. It was posted by a famous media account and the post had received five million likes and almost a million comments.

The main issue was that this had happened only a short time ago. How could it attract the attention of so many people?

Dolores opened the comments area and scrolled down.

[Wow! That’s the woman behind Helen White. But it looks like this woman is more intriguing and looks like she’s carrying a baby in her belly].

Someone responded, [Is this woman a home wrecker who made Matthew call off the engagement to Helen?]

Someone replied, [Apparently this woman is his true love. In the pictures they took earlier, Matthew had no expression on his face when he was with Helen. But he kissed this woman in public. I saw a post from the other blogger – Matthew took this woman to the Chanel outlet and bought handbags for her].

[What’s the background of this woman?]

[Alas, who is this woman? Actually, she managed to get the president of WY Group to fall in love with her – he’s the youngest rich guy in the country! My dream of marrying him and becoming rich has turned into bubbles!!!!]]

[What tricks has this woman used?]

Someone replied: [She is his true love. If you don’t believe it, please see this photo].

The photo was taken at the Chanel outlet and in the photo, Dolores pulled Matthew to her. Matthew was smiling while Dolores gave a serious look as if she was teaching him a lesson.

Dolores, “…”

“Can’t you show your affection at home? Why do you have to show your affection in public? See, now you two become the hot news.” Theresa joked, “Don’t you know that your husband is very rich? Don’t you know that he is very handsome? Don’t you know that billions of girls want to marry your husband? You’ve taken away many women’s prince charming.”

Dolores shot him a look, threw the tablet computer on the bed, turned around and left the room. As she walked past her daughter’s bedroom, she discovered that Amanda was showing her “treasures” to Tina through the ajar door. Amanda’s “treasures” were nothing less than dolls and stuffed animals.

Sitting by the bed with a smile, Tiana didn’t seem impatient at all.

They seemed to be getting along well.

Dolores did not enter or interrupt them. She gently closed the door, turned around and went upstairs.

When she pushed open her bedroom door, she saw no one and checked that the bathroom door was closed. Dolores figured Matthew must be showering inside. She sat down next to the bed, opened her new phone, inserted the SIM card, turned on the phone, and started browsing Weibo posts.

The top Weibo search was, “WY Group chairman has a girlfriend.”

He clicked on it. It was the scene of her and Matthew at the mall. Many photos were taken and someone even produced some GIFs.

The comments showed various opinions, both compliments and negative comments. Someone commented that she was beautiful, while another said she was very intriguing.

Dolores was confused. Matthew wasn’t a star, why are they looking at her private life?

She wanted to wait for Matthew to come out, but there was no sound of running water in the bathroom, nor did she see anyone come out. She got up and walked over, and then checked to see that the bathroom door was not completely closed.

Dolores reached out and gently pushed the door open. As she opened it, she saw Matthew standing in front of the sink, in his pajamas. In the bathroom she could still smell the remaining fragrance of the body wash.

Apparently, he had finished the shower.

Dolores wanted to see clearly what he was doing. However, he was so tall that his figure covered the entire sink and she couldn’t see anything.

Dolores pushed open the door, stepped into the bathroom and asked, “What are you doing?”
