Chapter 439 Are You a Woman


    Charles was d that Dolores came to see him, but at the same time, he felt devastated that Dolores


    came to see him for another man.


    Dolores didn’t want to waste her time. She cut into the chase, “You broke your promise. I’m


    disappointed at you. I think you knew why I came to you. Tell me, what is it that I have to do to make


    you let go of this? I won’t stop you if you want to take revenge on Jeffery. It doesn’t matter to me if


    you’re dead or alive, but I won’t allow you to use Matthew as the weapon for your vengeance. Don’t


    think that I can’t do anything to you because I want to keep Matthew in the dark. Don’t forget that this is


    City B. Other than Matthew, there’s also Jayden in this city.”


    Jayden wasn’t in charge of business for quite some time, but it didn’t mean that he was capable. It was


    an easy deed for Jayden to deal with an outsider like Charles.


    Dolores didn’t always disy her humbleness. At times, she was stubborn too. It meant she could y


    the hardball, and she could do negotiation as well.


    Charles stared at Dolores for some time. Then heughed, “You really would do anything for him.”


    “He is my husband, the father of my children. I would do anything for him,” Dolores said. She stared


    back at Charles.


    Dolores had nothing to hide.


    Charles could fake his smile anything. He grasped the arms of the wheelchair with his hands, “What if I


    say, I want you?”


    “You won’t. You’re way better than this. I’m a married woman, and I knew I am not that attractive. Now


    tell me, what do you want?” Dolores didn’t show any emotion on her face after hearing what Charles


    said. It was like she wasn’t the person Charles was talking about.


    Dolores’ calmness surprised Charles.


    “Are you a woman? Even if you don’t like me, don’t you think you need to show some sympathy after


    hearing my confession? You made me feel like a loser,” Charles didn’t hide his disappointment.


    “You think I’m a big-hearted person? That I should care for you as well? No, I’m not. I’m petty. I can


    only have one person in my heart. There’s no space for another person. Now I hope that we could


    myst favour to you foring here today. From today onwards, we’ll be enemies.”


    Then, she called, “Boyce…”


    “Hold on,” Charles didn’t expect Dolores to be this stubborn. When he saw her appeared by his


    doorsteps, he was even thinking if he could get her back as a term. Then he would take her away back


    to White City and lived a normal life ever after.


    Charles didn’t know Dolores would be so stubborn.


    Dolores was the reason why Charles was happy and sad, and Charles can’t do anything about it.


    A car stopped by the street opposite the hotel. A man who should be drunk and sleeping in the vi


    was watching Charles and Dolores’ actions in the room through the video from the surveince


    camera.


    Matthew got people to investigate where Charles’ staying in City B when he appeared in the ward to


    send flowers to Dolores. City B was a big city, but there weren’t many luxury hotels in town. It’s not a


    difficult thing to know where Charles was staying.


    Matthew knew Dolores probably got him drunk toe and see Charles. So, he asked his people to


    impersonate as a cleaner and hid a surveince camera in the room.


    Matthew could see every move Charles and Dolores made, and he could hear everything they have


    said, clearly.


    Matthew leaned back on the chair. The shirt he wore was wrinkled. Matthew wore a pair of trousers and


    kept his legs crossed. He loosened the button of his cor using one hand, and rested his forehead on


    another hand. His hand covered most parts of his face and hid away his emotions.


    In the room.


    Dolores didn’t ask Charles right away if he had considered and was willing to tell her his terms now.


    Instead, she waited patiently.


    After a while, Charles moved his wheelchair and stopped in front of the French window. He overlooked


    the city lights from his hotel room, “I’ve never loved for myself my whole life. I used to live in an


    orphanage. I like to smile, no matter how hard life was because people like to see a smiling child.


    This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Nobody likes a bitter kid. Then, Nathan adopted me. In order to make Nathan feels like he made the


    right choice for adopting me, I tried my very best to showcase my abilities. I studied hard and tried my


    best to be a capable person. When he passed away, his will asked me to marry Victoria’s


    daughter. I’d do it for Nathan, regardless if I like her or not. Then, when I rescued you and saw the jade


    bangle on your arms, I thought you’re Victoria’s daughter. So, I approached you based on Nathan’s will.


    After some time, I found out that you are actually an interesting person…”


    “I like you. It is the only thing that I didn’t have to care what other people think, and it is the only thing I


    could follow the voice in my heart.”


    Charles turned his wheelchair around and looked at Dolores, “I was so happy when you came to see


    me, but the reason you came was for another man. You said you didn’t want him to get hurt. I’m


    jealous. Very jealous. How funny is that?”


    Dolores looked at Charles, and she was a little moved. Maybe it was because both of them didn’t have


    a happy childhood. Dolores could rte to Charles’ sorrow.


    “I can stop the doctor from appearing in front of Matthew,” Charles approached Dolores with his


    wheelchair until his knees were next to Dolores’.


    “When I know that I like you, I wanted to use everything I had in exchange for a pair of healthy legs so


    that I could stand in front of you, like a normal man.”


    “I’m feeling inferior most of the time. I hated myself so much when I couldn’t sleep at night and saw


    your face in my head.”


    Charles’s eyes were red, and he was shaking.


    Dolores said softly, “I’m not worth it.”


    “Yes, you’re not,” Charles leaned over and looked into Dolores’ eyes. Their noses were only a few


    millimetres apart, and they almost touched, “But I couldn’t control myself.”


    Dolores clenched her fists. She was stunned, at the same time, moved. It wasn’t because of his


    confession, but for his life. The world was filled with unfairness. Some people were born into an


    ordinary family but they got to grow old peacefully, while some people were abandoned once they were


    born.


    “If I was the one you met first, would you…”


    “There’s no ‘if’,” Dolores stopped Charles. She didn’t want to answer a hypothetical question for


    something impossible.


    Dolores could see her reflection in Charles’ eyes. Charles said, “I could make the doctor gone forever,


    and nobody would ever find him under one term.”


    “What term?”


    Charles stared at Dolores’ lips. Her lips looked soft, and it was pink in colour even when Dolores didn’t


    wear any lipsticks.


    Dolores noticed Charles’ intention. She turned her face away from Charles, but he grabbed her by the


    scruff of her neck and forced her to look at him.


    Charles muttered, “All I wanted was a kiss from you. Can’t you give me that?”


    Dolores shook her head.


    Disappointment shed in Charles’ eyes, but soon, a smile appeared on his face, “You’re cruel.”
