Chapter 48: The Way of Punishing


    His face moved closer to her, “If you dare to indiscriminately suspect me in the future, I…” He gazed at


    her lips, lowered his head and bit it.


    She felt a sudden pain. The taste of blood spread in her mouth.


    She frowned. It hurt, it really hurt. This man really bit her.


    “In the future, for every time you wrong me, I’ll do this as the way of punishing you, it sounds fair right?”


    Dolores lost her mind as she gazed at the man in front of her. She could not understand all his strange


    behaviours.


    “Do you know what’re you doing right now?”


    Speechless, Matthew did not know how to answer her question. Every matter that happened after he


    met this woman was so unexpected that he lost control of himself and became different from what he


    was in the past.


    It was clear in his mind that this woman was not good as she was impure and did not respect herself.


    But he was interested in such a bad woman and he felt like he was a real man – a man who had a


    normal physical reaction that a man should have when facing a woman.


    His emotions were hidden and he did not show any expression.


    He smiled faintly and asked, “What about you? You rushed forward to cover me from the sword without


    caring your own life, is it…”


    As he said, his face moved even closer. When Dolores took a step backward, he would take a step


    forward to approach her. They were very close to each other. The smile on his face was faint, soft,


    gentle and could hardly be ignored, “Is it that you fall in love with me?”


    That was why she was able to rush forward without concerning her own safety when the danger came?


    Actually, after he turned around, he was shocked when he saw her rushing over.


    Dolores turned her head and did not look at him, “Mr. Nelson is really good at joking. I’ve only known


    you for a few days, how will I fall in love with you?”


    If she did not suspect that he was the father of the child in her belly, she certainly would not be so


    impulsive at that moment.


    She cherished her own life as she had to survive for the sake of her mother and her child.


    Matthew did not be angry. He moved back and leaned on the sofa, smiling, “Perhaps, you fell in


    love with me at the first sight? This can happen, right?”


    He was apparently speaking to Dolores but it also sounded like he was soliloquizing.


    Dolores’s hand on her leg clenched tightly but she said with a calm face, “I don’t believe love at the first


    sight.”


    Finished speaking, she stood up and go to pour water for herself, thinking to deliberately ignore this


    topic. They were strangers to each other but they lived under the same roof due to fate. And now they


    were talking about the most indefinable word in the world, ‘love’, wasn’t it funny and ridiculous?


    While drinking water, Dolores looked through the ss and gazed at the piano that was ced in front


    of the floor-to-ceiling window. A dark mood came over her.


    The next day.


    Dolores went to the hospital to see Jessica. This time, Jessica was sober as she could recognize


    Dolores at the first nce. She pulled Dolores’s hands, not letting them go.


    “L, I’m very happy that youe to see me. I miss you a lot during this period.” Jessica held


    Dolores’s hands so tightly that she was afraid that Dolores would disappear as soon as she released


    her hands.


    Seeing Jessica being sober, Dolores was jubnt, “I won’t leave. When your condition bes better,


    I’ll bring you to leave this ce.”


    After the engagement with Matthew ended, she would buy a small house and live with her mom.


    “Howe Dr. Herbert didn’t visit me for the past few days, is it that you’re angry with him?” Jessica


    more or less knew Sampson’s thought.


    She liked Sampson very much and was very satisfied with his personality.


    Besides, he was a doctor.


    If Dolores could be with Sampson, it would naturally be great.


    But Dolores was pregnant and the identity of the child’s father was unknown.


    Whenever Jessica thought of the child, she would fall into a state of deep gloom.


    “He has something to do so he may note to see you for some periods.” Dolores slightly sagged


    her eyes. Sampson promised that he would help her to find out what happened that night. So, he


    should be in A Country now.


    “If you weren’t pregnant, how good it would be for you to be with him. I feel he’s a very good person…”


    “Mom,” Dolores hurriedly interrupted her and helped her to wear a bracelet on her wrist, “Mom, do you


    still recognize this?”


    Jessica lowered her head, “Of course.” This was because it was her dowry. But then, she felt


    unbelievable so she looked up at Dolores, “How did you get this?”


    “Randolph gave it to me.” There was a purpose for Dolores toe here today. She was at a loss what


    to do, “Randolph is in a difficult situation and he came to beg me yesterday. I don’t know what I should


    do.”


    Dolores hated him so much that she hoped that he would die.


    But after all, he was still her father even if he was a bastard. Her life was given by him.


    Jessica looked down, “I don’t want you to worry about this. Don’t dwell on the past, don’t get involved


    with people from the past. Don’t go to hurt them and don’t forgive them too.


    She understood what Jessica meant.


    No matter how Randolph was, regardless of good or bad, she should not get involved with him.


    “Um.”


    The two of them talked for a while after that and when the visiting time ended, Dolores walked out of


    the room.


    Aftering out of the room, Dolores headed to the nurse station to ask about her mom’s situation.


    “She’s so sober; doesn’t it mean that she has recovered?”


    “No, she selectively forgets some matters and can remember the current matters but this situation


    won’tst long. This happens at an uncertain time and onlysts for a while.”


    Dolores was a little disappointed as she thought that Jessica already recovered, “Then please take


    good care of her.”


    “We will. Dr. Herbert specially reminds us about this, so please don’t worry.”


    Dolores left the hospital after saying thank you.


    Since Jessica said so, then she could just ignore it and let the former grudge be written off. She took a


    cab to thepany.


    In the cab, she looked out of the window, gazing at this city that sounded familiar and unfamiliar to her.


    When the car passed by the building of the Flores Group, there were many people gathered at the


    entrance, holding banners with big letters, ‘Return my hard-earned money’.


    “Stop here, please.” Dolores opened the car window and looked at the situation outside.


    The driver looked back and said, “You also heard it, right? This unscrupulous businessman uses


    inferior materials so the building copses before it’s done. Those owners who had already paid really


    had bad luck as who will dare to live in such a house? But even if they don’t want, thepany won’t


    refund the money. At this period every day, people always gather here but it seems like there is no use.


    Miss, you also bought a house here?”


    Dolores shook her head, “No.”

    “That’s good. Many people can’t afford to buy a house in their lifetime and some are also using all their


    money to buy one. But such a problem urs now, they will be really frustrated. In short, the developer


    is too treacherous as many people are cheated by them.” The more the driver said, the angrier he


    became. It sounded as if he was also a victim.


    “Do you want to get off here?” The driver asked. It was a waste of time for him to stop here as he still


    had to do his work.


    “No, let’s go.” Dolores turned her head, not looking at it.


    These were none of her business.


    Soon, the car stopped in front of WY Tower. Dolores paid and got out of the car. When she was about


    to move forward, a man in a ck suit ran over, “Excuse me, are you Ms. Flores?”


    Dolores turned her head and sized up the person. It waspletely an unfamiliar face. She tried to


    search for information about this person in her mind and she was sure that she did not know him and


    had never seen him before.


    Having been victimizedst time, she was very alert and precautious. Instead of admitting her identity,


    she asked, “Who are you? I don’t know you.”


    The driver was not panicked but was very calm instead, “I’m the driver of the madam I serve, she wants


    to see you.”


    “The madam you serve? Dolores frowned. She saw a ck luxurious car parked on the roadside.


    It seemed that the person inside could sense Dolores’s gaze. The car window was slowly opened…


    The driver looked in the direction where Dolores was gazing, and said, “She is the madam I


    serve.”
