Chapter 565 I’ll Be Jealous
Armand was so puzzled, wondering what he should do.
Dolores squatted down and patted him on the shoulder. “I don’t know either, but if you truly care about
Theresa, just give her more time. Don’t push her too much while asking her to forgive you. You should
move her by your practical actions.”
In that case, Theresa would open up her heart and be willing to reconcile with him.
Armand let out a bitterugh. “I understand what you’re saying, but I’m afraid that I couldn’t do it well.
On contrary, I might push him further and further away.”
“As long as you’ll do it wholeheartedly with a clear conscience, she must feel it.” Dolores didn’t know
how tofort him easier, so she tried her best to encourage him.
She thought that Armand must have known what he had done wrong in the past.
In the afternoon, Theresa woke up. After taking the injection and sleeping for a whole morning, she
looked much spirited.
Armand knew that she hadn’t eaten much, so he brought back some food. Afraid that Theresa would
be upset when seeing him, he asked Dolores to take the food in.
Dolores walked in and helped Theresa to sit up. What Armand bought was cooked wheaten food that
was easy to digest. Theresa hadn’t eaten for almost three days, so her stomach was empty. She had
been starved for a long time, so she couldn’t eat anything hard or spicy and could only start eating little
by little. Hence, Armand didn’t get much food for her.
Watch her finish eating, Dolores gave her a ss of warm water, cleaned the lunch box, and tossed
them into the garbage can. Then she sat on the edge of the bed and talked to Theresa.
She knew that Theresa wasn’t willing to be taken care of by Armand, but she still asked, “Your legs
were injured, so recently you can walk at all. You need someone to take care of. Armand wants to...”
“I don’t need him to take care of me. Please help me get a nursing worker,” Theresa interrupted
Dolores before she finished her words. “Besides, it’s a minor injury.”
Dolores looked at her and didn’t convince her, because Theresa didn’t need the persuasion at all. Only
after she was moved by Armand’s actions and fell in love with him again, the love would be true. If
Dolores insisted on convincing her, Theresa would only feel bothered.
She didn’t want to upset Theresa.
Grabbing her hand, Dolores said, “I got it. Come to my vi with me. My kids and I are always at home.
You wouldn’t be bored. OK?”
Theresa was a bit hesitant. “Well, would it bother your family too much?”
“Bother? Of course not!” Dolores emphasized, “In your current condition, how can I let a nursing worker
take care of you?”
Theresa didn’t know what she was thinking about, so she said, “I didn’t get injured so seriously. I truly

don’t need...”
“Do you treat me as an outsider?” Dolores interrupted her.
She and Armand had misunderstood -- they thought that Theresa had been raped by John. Dolores
didn’t dare to speak it out, so she hid her concerns, afraid that she would give Theresa too much
pressure.
After all, Theresa wouldn’t want others to know about this matter.
Dolores was worried that Theresa would make blind and disorderly conjectures if she stayed alone.
Although Theresa looked spirited and rxed, Dolores thought that it was because she pretended to
be tough. Hence, Dolores didn’t want Armand to take care of Theresa and insisted on taking her back
to the vi.
“Of course not!” Theresa was willing to stay with her certainly. However, they were not in City C now,
where there were only Dolores and the kids in the house. Matthew was also in the vi. They had just
had a family reunion. Theresa was afraid that she would bother them as an outsider.
Dolores understood what she was worried about. She said, “Don’t worry. We have a lot of rooms in the
vi. I’ve called Coral to prepare you a guestroom on the first floor. Just move in. I’ll take care of you.”
Theresa pressed her lips and didn’t refuse her anymore. Dolores asked her to take a nap and she
would go through the hospital discharge procedure. Actually, with this excuse, she went to see Armand
outside.
Armand didn’t dare to enter the room after Theresa had woken up, afraid to upset her.
He was sitting on the bench in the corridor, his hands on his knees, looking quite depressed. Dolores
called him in a low voice, “Hey, Armand.”
“Yes?” He looked over.
Dolores said, “I’ll ask my driver toe over and take Theresa hometer. Take good care of yourself.
Get better soon.”
Armand nodded. Then he lowered his head.
Dolores heaved a sigh. She didn’t speak again and turned away. She called the driver toe upstairs
and borrowed a wheelchair from the nurse’s office. With the driver’s help, she helped Theresa to sit in
the wheelchair and pushed her away from the hospital.
When they reached the car, she helped Theresa sit in with the driver’s assistance. Armand was
standing in front of the window at the end of the corridor, watching that Theresa was helped into the car
and the car roared away.
Soon, the car vanished from his sight. He turned away and didn’t continue staying in the hospital.
When Dolores brought Theresa back to the vi, Coral had already prepared the guest room. She
helped Theresa to lie on the bed. Although it was summer, there were a lot of trees in front and behind
the vi. The dense branches and leaves had blocked a lot of sunlight.
Dolores asked Theresa if she felt hot.
Theresa shook her head. “Not at all.”
She was still on a fever. The room with the air condition was way too dry, so she wouldn’t feel
Theresa said, “Sure.”
“Call Coral if you need some water or use the bathroom. I’ll go out shopping for your clothes.”
Theresa was in a patient’s gown as well. She was kidnapped and had no belongings at all. She needed
to get changed every day in summer. Dolores had a simr figure as she had, so Theresa could put on
Dolores’s clothes, but she needed new underwear.
Hence, Dolores would go shopping for lingerie and some casual clothes for her.
Theresa said jokingly with a smile, “You are pregnant, but I still send you out. If your husband knew it,
would he scold me?”
Dolores put down the medicine from the hospital on the nightstand and cast her a nce, “He never
scolds anyone.”
Theresa curled her lips and reminded her, “I know you haven’t been together for a long time. Now you
are reunited so you must be clingy to each other. Don’t do PDA in front of me. I’ll be jealous!”
Sometimes, Dolores felt that Theresa and Armand were alike -- their speaking tones were alike.
“Take a nap. I’m taking off now.”
“Okay. Go ahead. I’ll take a nap.” Theresay down.
Dolores could tell that she was sleepy, so she closed the door. Amanda was still angry with Dolores.
Since Dolores came back, Amanda didn’t speak to her at all. She was sitting on the sofa ying with
Cotton. Andrew threw up his hands. He also didn’t know what was going on with his sister today as he
failed to coax her.
Dolores didn’t have time to coax Amanda. She said to Coral. “Theresa is napping in the guestroom.
Please check on herter to see if she’s still on fever.”
Coral answered, “Okay, I will.”
She said to the kids, “Keep quiet. Aunt Theresa is napping now. She’s not well. You guys need to
behave yourselves.”
“We will,” said Andrew.
Amanda seemed that she hadn’t heard anything, only continuing teasing Cotton.
Dolores sighed and didn’t expect that Amanda started showing her temper. After casting her daughter a
nce, she turned around and walked out of the house. The driver was waiting for her outside the door
as she requested.
The driver got off the car and opened the rear door for her. Dolores bent over and sat in. “The shopping
mall, please.”
The driver answered and trotted to drive the car.
Soon, the car was pulled over in front of the shopping mall. After parking the car, the driver followed her
in.
Dolores’s goal was quite clear. She walked directly to the women’s outfit section.
“Dolores Flores?”
When she was about to enter a store, someone called her from her back.
