Dolores was thirsty, so she went downstairs to get some water. Seeing her sitting there while crying, he thought she was uncomfortable with the lifestyle here, so he went downstairs, pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to her, âWhatâs wrong, is something wrong?â
Lucy hurried to pick everything up and said, âNothing.â
Evidently, she did not give the impression that she looked well. Dolores handed her the handkerchief again, âWipe yourself.â
Lucy got up, took the handkerchief she had been given and wiped her tears.
Dolores poured two glasses of water and handed her one of them, âCould you tell me why you are crying? If thereâs something youâre not used to here, you can talk to me.â
âNo, Iâm fine to stay here.â She lowered her head, âI just miss my son.â
Dolores saw her holding the box of stationery in her hand and understood well. She understood what the mood of a mother missing her son was like.
Earlier she had said that after divorcing her husband, a son followed her husband. But still, she, as a mother, should have visitation rights: âYou can go to see her if you miss him. If your ex-husband wonât let you visit him, I can find you a lawyer.â
She was also a mother, so she could understand Lucyâs current state of mind. While she sympathized with her, she also wanted to give her some help.
âNo, thatâs not necessary.â She had visitation rights. Although she only had one chance a month, which wasnât much, she didnât want to cause trouble for others. âItâs already afternoon, are you hungry?â asked Lucy after she calmed down.
Dolores drank all the water in the cup, set it down and said, âItâs okay to make it now.â
When the food was done, she would be hungry.
Usually it was Coral who prepared the food. She said, âLet me make the food today so Coral can rest.â
After coming here, there was nothing she wasnât used to. Everyone was very nice and Coral helped her a lot.
Dolores said yes.
She could no longer fall asleep and intended to go to Theresaâs room to chat with her. Before she went in, she spoke to Lucy again, âYou can tell me if you need anything.â
He didnât mean anything else, but simply wanted to lend her a hand.
Lucy said, âThatâs fine, thank you.â
Dolores said, âNo problemâ as she smiled, turned around and went to Theresaâs room.
On the other side, the two people who came out of the Club got into the car and left. Boyce drove the car to the entrance of the WY Group.
Boyce abruptly saw the car parked in the driveway and said, âIsnât this Charlesâ car?â
Matthew looked up and peered out. Sure enough, Charlesâ car was parked in the parking space outside the tower.
âWhy did you come here?â Boyce put a hand on the car window and seemed interested to know.
After all, Charles understood better than anyone how inconvenient it was to be in this place, but he still took the initiative to come looking for something unpleasant for him. Wasnât this very odd?
At first, Matthew wanted to go inside, but after learning that Charles was here, he called Abbott to let him drive the car out of the tower.
Boyce took one look at Matthew and said as he smiled, âDonât be so stingy. Heâs already come here, why donât you give him a wedding invitation? Let him attend your wedding so heâll give up.â Matthew ignored him.
Abbott parked the car behind Boyceâs. He got out and handed the car key to Matthew, âSomeone named Mr. White is here to see you, heâs been waiting for two hours.â
Matthew took the key and said, âJust say Iâm not here.â
After saying that, he took the car key and got into the car. He started the carâs engine and drove off.
âIs your boss especially mean?â Boyce looked at the car speeding away and asked Abbott with a smile.
Abbott gave a look that meant âyou know more than I do.â
âYouâre asking me about this, are you sure?â
At first he was going to say that the two of them were so close that the only thing they hadnât done was sleep in the same bed together. Donât you know Matthewâs personality better than I do?
But he didnât say it. He waved his hand, âIâm leaving.â He was too busy.
Boyce didnât waste any time either. He drove the car back to the Club and, on the way, received a video sent by his subordinate.
He had always sent people to follow Declan. Moreover, today he had specifically warned them that they were to record all of Declanâs actions.
The video sent by his subordinate was about the scene where Declan threw John into the sea. It was recorded very clearly and he was very satisfied. He sent a message to his subordinate to go back and not to watch it anymore.
It was unlikely to bring Declan down with the case in the past and such a case happened too long ago so it was not easy to find evidence. Therefore, he could only use the recent one to bring down Declan.
This video was enough to prove that he instigated the murder.
However, his father was very powerful. Even if this was exposed, it would be suppressed. Now, he could only wait for the right time to do so and further delve into the bad things he had done these past years.
Once there was a suitable opportunity, they would be dealt a blow.
Just after Boyce returned to the Club and sat for a short time, Michael, who worked for Officer Miller, came to call him saying that Officer Miller wanted to see him.
He stopped what he was doing and immediately went to Officer Millerâs office. When he reached the office door, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Soon, a voice saying âcome inâ sounded inside. Boyce opened the door and stepped inside. He saw that Officer Miller was on the phone. He waved his hand for Boyce to keep his voice down and take a seat first.
Boyce understood what he meant and sat down on the couch in the area to serve the guests at the front.
After waiting a while, Officer Millerâs call ended. He hung up the phone, walked over and asked, âAre you free at noon?â
Boyce nodded, âYeah, what, let me buy you lunch?â.
Officer Miller waved his big hand and said generously, âMy treat.â
âThatâs nice.â No doubt he was pleased since someone was inviting him to lunch.
Officer Miller took off his hat and stretched his muscle, âWhereâs your little girlfriend? Bring her to my house today.â
Boyce felt he shouldnât be so quick to feel happy. âGirlfriend, do I have a girlfriend?
âWell, Iâll go alone,â Boyce said with a smile.
Officer Miller directly gave an order, âNo, there must be two people. Iâll go first. You take your little girlfriend to go after. Youâve been there before, so Iâm sure you know the address. Donât be late.â
After saying that, he took the hat and left without giving Boyce time to find an excuse to refuse.
Boyce was speechless.
Heâs really giving me a hard task!
He scratched his head and felt brain pain. Not only did he owe Officer Miller a debt of gratitude for promoting him, but he had always given him a lot of help. He could not refute Officer Miller.
After thinking about it, he thought he could only ask Jasmine for one favor.
He looked at his watch. There was still plenty of time. This time he didnât go directly to Jasmine, but let his subordinate go see her for him.
The affair from last time still made him shudder. If it were not for Officer Miller, he would not go to see Jasmine, regardless of who asked him to.
After the previous affair, the colleagues at the Club had acknowledged that Jasmine was his girlfriend. After all, they had kissed in public. If they werenât a couple, what was their relationship?
Besides, the people at the Club knew Boyce well. He wasnât someone who casually hooked up with women. The reason they did it had to be because she was his girlfriend.
After the incident last time, Jasmine also didnât dare to seek Boyce out just like that, for fear of causing trouble for him.
She had a good impression of Boyce. Boyce was honest, mature and reliable. This kind of man always had a unique charm. For a woman like her, who came from such a family, it would be very safe to be with such a man.
Seeing him suddenly ask someone to approach her, Jasmine went out without hesitation.
The subordinate took Jasmine to the club. As they went to Boyceâs office, she remembered something and asked, âWhat do you want me to do?â
The minion gave her a look and said with a smile, âI donât know.
You can ask him yourself after you go in.â
She immediately led Jasmine to Boyceâs office door and said, âHeâs inside. You go in yourself, Iâll come out first.â
After saying that, the subordinate turned and left, leaving Jasmine there.
Jasmine stood at the door and hesitated for a moment before raising her hand and knocking on the door. Soon, the door opened from the inside.
