Chapter 252 Following Closely


    Since they had time to go out and y, Dolores asked his son, Samuel, to go together. She was


    concerned that his eyesight would suffer as a result of his constant gaming.


    They did, however, see Charles as soon as they went down.


    Charles looked at the family of four, who wereing out from the lift, and asked with a smile, “Are you


    going to go out?”


    Matthew sneered, “Mr. White, you’re following us closely all the time.”


    Charles was not angry and smiled, “Mr. Nelson is ttering me.”


    He looked at Dolores, “I know there is a ce that is suitable for children to y here. I can lead the


    way for you.”


    Charles was making a decision rather than asking a question, “Youe to my ce, and I should be


    hospitable to you. I hope Mr. Nelson and Ms. Flores will bear with me if there is anything that I didn’t do


    well enough.”


    Dolores couldn’t refuse since Charles had said it like this. She nced at Matthew and smiled lightly,


    “Then I will put Mr. White to the trouble of showing us the way to the ce.”


    “It isn’t a problem.” Charles smiled, “Actually, the reason I looked for you was to ask you if you want to


    go out. After all, you have two children. They must be bored staying at the hotel all of the time.”


    Dolores gave a stiff smile and exined, “Because I have to bring them out to y, so I have no


    time…”


    Dolores didn’t even have to exin. Charles knew that it was Matthew that didn’t allow her to meet him.


    To make this petty Matthew even angrier and more ufortable, he smiled, “Before you leave, we


    probably have to meet more often. I also moved to the hotel today.”


    “Why Mr. White want to stay at the hotel? Is it because you don’t have a ce to stay?” Samuel stood


    next to Dolores, and Dolores held his hand.


    “Hmm--” Charles pondered for a moment, “For the sake of convenience in taking care of you. You see,


    I live in White City and this hotel is my ce. You will be more convenient if I’m here.”


    Samuel blinked his eyes. Even if he wasn’t there, they were fine. If one is rich, he will be convenient


    everywhere.


    Charles obviously came here for mummy.


    He had previously wished for Charles to fight for mummy with daddy. But now, he no longer wished for


    it.


    He was worried that daddy and mummy would break up and he would not have a daddy anymore.


    Furthermore, Matthew was more handsome and wealthier than Charles. But the most important thing


    was that Charles could not walk.


    Samuel held Dolores’ hand tightly, as if he was afraid that Charles would steal her mummy.


    “Let’s go. It’s not early now. Let’s go and y first, and then we can go and see the fountainter.”


    Charles went to the front and led the way.


    He didn’t treat himself as an outsider.


    When he got into his car, Charles said, “My car will be at the front. You can just follow my car.”


    Matthew squinted coldly at him, “You don’t even treat yourself as an outsider.”


    Charles smiled, “Ms. Flores and I have known each other for quite some time. I also have coboration


    with Mr. Nelson. So, of course, I’m not an outsider.”


    Matthew didn’t respond and got into the car.


    The bodyguard closed the door, blocking Charles’ view.


    Tom pushed Charles’ wheelchair, and Charles got into his car.


    The ce mentioned by Charles was not far away from the hotel. It was only about a ten-minute drive


    away. It was a newly repaired building that imitated the ancient style of the building in the past.


    The long corridor was built along a clear, man-madeke. The long corridor was precisely and


    exquisitely repaired. Every tile and brick, even the tiniest details of the wood carving, was meticulously


    constructed. It looked very delicate.


    At the end of the long corridor stood an old mansion. The mansion’s gate was magnificent, resembling


    the mansion where the prince lived in ancient times. It was as if they had stepped into the world in


    ancient times.


    In theke, there were some red koi, as well as wooden boats, silk, rednterns, and boatmen floating


    on the water.


    “You can feed the fish on the boat,” Charles said after noticing Simona’s eagerness to try.


    “I want to have a ride on the boat and feed the fish,” shouted Simona, who was very excited. Children


    can quickly be interested in something and be satisfied with it easily.


    Although it was nothing out of the ordinary, she wanted to do it because she was interested.


    Since the weather was nice today, they could also rx by boating and feeding the fish.


    “Okay. Then we’ll go boating and fish feeding. I’ll go and buy the fish food.” Dolores asked his son,


    Samuel, to stand here and wait for her.


    The shop that sold fish food was at the other end of the corridor. Dolores made her way to the shop.


    Matthew stood by the corridor, gazing at the crystal-clearke. He could clearly see the seaweed,


    which looked like long hair, underneath. The ce had cleaner and fresher air than in the city.


    “There will be a lot of people here if today is a two-day weekend.” This ce had be a popr


    ce for many people to go for a walk on their rest day.


    It would be so satisfying to bask in the sun while feeding the fish.


    Matthew squinted at Charles, sneered at him, “Mr. White, you care about us so much every day, aren’t


    you eyeing Dolores?”


    Charles did not hide his thoughts, “I saved Ms. Flores and let her recover at my home because I


    mistook her for Victoria’s daughter. My adoptive father left his final wish before passing away. He hoped


    that I would marry Victoria’s daughter. But it wasn’t,…”


    Matthew remained calm, but there was an emotional shift in his heart.


    He became increasingly interested in Victoria saying her past.


    Clearly, she and Nathan had feelings for each other. But why, in the end, was she married to his father?


    Charles paused for a while and said calmly and undisguisedly, “The period that I am in contact with Ms.


    Flores is not long, and I do have feelings for her. I also know that you and she were not as close as


    what we saw. I think I can still try to fight for her.”


    There was a sudden gust of wind. Matthew turned his head back and returned his gaze to Charles,


    who was in the backlight and was calm. Their gazes collided. It was more powerful than ten thousand


    words and ten thousand fights.


    Matthew looked calm, “Mr. White, you’re not only wrong from the beginning, but you won’t have any


    chance in the future. She and I get along fine.


    Not emphasizing, not showing off, not bluffing, but just simply stating. Matthew was just this cool and


    confident.


    Charles knew, his confidence was given by Dolores.


    He could tell that Dolores’ attitude towards Matthew had changed. It wasn’t pretending like she used to,


    but it came from her heart, a reaction of her body instincts.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    She was concerned about Matthew’s feelings.


    Just like just now, when he said that he wanted to lead the way, Dolores turned back to look at


    Matthew, as if she was afraid that Matthew was unhappy.


    When she cared about someone’s feelings, it meant she already had a ce in her heart for that


    person.


    Charles was still smiling but was a bit rueful, “Never mind, if she gets sick of you one day, I don’t mind


    being her back-burner guy.”


    He didn’t mind losing his face?


    Samuel quietly moved to the side of Matthew and held his hand, “My mummy is not a half-hearted


    person. We are not going to be separated.”


    He knew and was certain about which of these two men, Matthew or Charles, was the most suitable for


    his mummy and their family.


    Matthew was his and Simona’s father.


    They were aplete family only if his mummy was with Matthew.


    He wouldn’t allow anyone to ruin their family.


    Charles wanted to talk with Samuel, “Samuel…”


    Plop!


    “What’s that sound?”


    Suddenly, the sound of something falling into the water was heard.


    Samuel raised his head, “Why hasn’t mummye back after so long?”


    Matthew raised his head and cast a thoughtful nce at Charles. He took his son, “Let’s go take a


    look.”


    Charles followed them as well.


    On their way, they noticed that the fish food scattered all over the ground. There was more than one


    footprint on thewn, and they were notrge. They were, without a doubt, women’s footprints.


    There were a lot of big ripples spreading on the water surface.


    “Help…”


    Matthew took a look at the water. Perhaps because theke was too deep, the person inside theke


    sometimes had her head outside, sometimes sank in the water.


    He couldn’t see her face, but he was sure that the person who had fallen into theke was Dolores.


    He put down his daughter without hesitation. It was bitingly cold in December. The water in theke


    was even colder, piercingly cold.
