Chapter 657: Dolores Received a Gift before the Wedding


    Theresa was a bit absent-minded. She felt a bit worried because Armand hadn’t shown up.


    Dolores sat on the sofa, while Theresa kept silent, looking quite spiritless.


    “You must be tired today.” Dolores poured a ss of water for her.


    Theresa picked it up and took a sip. She answered, “Not really. I haven’t seen Armand. Has anything


    happened to him?”


    She couldn’t hold back her worry but ask about his whereabouts.


    Dolores looked at her. Obviously, Theresa still cared about Armand.


    She poured a ss of water for herself and asked, “Why are you asking about him? Do you care about


    him?”


    “No, I don’t,” Theresa denied immediately. She exined, “It’s your wedding today, but he hasn’t shown


    up at all. Is it normal?”


    Dolores didn’t answer her immediately. She took a few sips of the water and said, “He’s been there all


    the time, but he didn’t show up in front of us.”


    “Why not?” Theresa asked.

    Dolores put down the water, looking at her in silence. Obviously, Theresa asked because she truly


    cared. It was her subconscious reaction, which couldn’t lie.


    Soon, Theresa realized that she had reacted too obvious. She tried to exin but didn’t know how to


    achieve it. For a moment, she was in a panic.


    Dolores nced at the door and checked the time. She guessed that Matthew should have taken


    Armand to the lounge now.


    She started to talk seriously, “Theresa, you do care about Armand.”


    “No, I don’t,” Theresa said less confidently. Her voice was lower.


    In the beginning, she tried to hold back her question because she was afraid that her thoughts would


    be exposed. However, Dolores still found it.


    Dolores didn’t insist on asking her, giving her some time to rx.


    In the room next door, Boyce asked Matthew to enter. He had found out the woman who sent the gift


    box, but he didn’t tell Dolores about her identity because it was a member form the Bailey family. To


    avoid worrying Dolores, he lied to her. After the wedding, he decided to tell Matthew.


    Seeing Armand standing at the door of the lounge, Boyce asked, “Armand has been hiding in the


    wedding all the time. Why is he standing at the door of the lounge but not going in?”


    Matthew sat on the sofa, looked up, and loosened his cor, “I did it intentionally.”


    He lied to Armand that he wanted to talk to Armand, taking him to the lounge. At the door, they


    overheard the conversation between Dolores and Theresa.


    Hearing that Theresa was in the lounge, Armand turned away and was about to go into another room.


    Matthew didn’t tell him about his n but pulled him to stop.


    Before Armand asked why in confusion, he overheard that Dolores remarked, “Theresa, you do care


    about Armand.”


    For some reason, he wanted to know the answer extremely eagerly, wondering if Theresa still cared


    about him.


    Even if she didn’t love him, it would be fine. As long as she still cared about him, it meant that he could


    still upy her heart.


    Probably in this way, he wouldn’t think that his love was way too worthless.


    When Boyce came to them, Armand was concentrating on eavesdropping on Theresa’s answer.


    “Why?” Boyce was confused. Why did Matthew intentionally let Armand stand at the door and


    eavesdropping the conversation inside?


    As a smart man, Boyce realized that Theresa must be in there, “Dolores and you are truly considerate


    friends. Your wedding has just ended. I can tell how exhausted you guys are, but you still think about


    helping Armand.”


    Matthew didn’t want to keep discussing this matter. He asked, “What do you want to tell me?”


    Boyce instantly became serious, “Before the wedding, Dolores received a gift box.”


    Matthew wasn’t drunk, but he had drunk a lot. Dolores had friends, so it was normal for her to receive a


    gift. He didn’t care much.


    “It was from the sixth daughter of the Bailey family, Emma Bailey.” As he spoke, Boyce pulled his


    phone and showed the surveince video to Matthew.


    “This woman asked a waitress to pass the gift to Dolores. Although it was a hazard, I don’t think she


    did it out of kindness.”


    Matthew squinted. He had been paying attention to the Bailey family. Although there were a lot of


    members in the family, they were not united. Moreover, more people tended to add insult to injury


    rather than offer others timely help.


    Besides, Den had been quite arrogant, so he had offended a lot of people. This time, his father and


    he would be fraught with grim possibilities.


    Matthew also sent his men to keep an eye on Den’s older sisters, who were all married. So far, none


    of them had taken any action. He also got some information about Emma. Since he had decided to do


    something to the Bailey family, Matthew had done a detailed investigation on their family andwork


    structures.


    However, he hadn’t expected that someone would make a move.


    “What did she send?” asked Matthew.


    “It wasn’t anything dangerous. I didn’t see it clearly. What do you n to do?” asked Boyce.


    “Have you told her that woman is from the Bailey family?” Matthew was afraid that Dolores would worry


    after knowing it. He didn’t want her to worry about those trifles.


    “Nope. I told her I couldn’t find it out, and Dolores didn’t ask me for details,” said Boyce.


    “Keep an eye on her.” Right now, Matthew couldn’t deal with this matter. They had just finished the


    wedding, so he wanted to apany Dolores for a few more days. Two dayster, Dolores would


    have the prenatal examination, and he needed to go with her.
