This time, Matthew Nelson was the one who was surprised. He looked at Dolores Flores.
Before Matthew asked, she smiled and said, âAre you going to ask me why I know so much about it? In fact, I went to the auction that time, too.â
She didnât go to buy. She just wanted to enrich her experience. This was the last item auctioned that day.
As a fashion designer, she needed to have many inspirations and collect materials.
Matthew thought deeply. When he finished, he saw a figure that looked a lot like her from behind at the Century jewelry auction three years ago. When he approached, the person was already gone. There were a lot of people that time, so he wasnât able to find her. She let Abbott Baron take the relevant surveillance videos. Unfortunately, the surveillance cameras malfunctioned that day.
In other words, he wasnât watching things that day. She was that person!
Dolores suddenly realized. She stared unblinkingly at Matthew, âWas that you who bought it?â
She laughed. How had she forgotten that Matthew was a businessman?
Ever since De Beers advertised diamonds as âA diamond is eternalâ in 1947, diamonds became the symbol of love.
Diamond rings were a must at weddings to show that you loved each other. âA diamond is eternalâ meant that the marriage between two people would last forever.
galnovels .com hosts great stories If you loved me, you had to buy me a diamond to prove that your love was stronger and harder than the diamond. Once the value of love was endowed to the stone, it became priceless. It also meant enormous wealth for those who sensationalized it.
Dolores touched the diamond cut in the shape of a pigeonâs egg inside the brocade box. She pursed her lips, âAll businessmen are profiteers.â
She was not familiar with the WY Groupâs business. Nor did she know how many businesses Matthew had developed.
âAre you talking about me?â he hugged her waist from behind, âTry it on.â
Dolores turned him down, âIâm afraid theyâll steal it from me.â
This thing looked too flashy once she wore it on her finger. This kind of pigeon egg cutout was also not suitable for her slender fingers.
âHmm?â She made a sound from her chest and tightened her arms. Her back was forced to be in contact with his chest. She could clearly feel the strong beating of his heart.
Matthew took the ring out of the brocade box and put it on her finger. The diamond was very large and Doloresâ fingers were too thin. Since the ring was a bit large, she took it off and put it on her middle finger. However, it was still a little loose. In the end, she put it on her index finger. It barely fit. He frowned, âWhy are your fingers so thin?â.
Dolores laughed, âItâs not that my fingers are too thin. Itâs because this ring doesnât fit me at all.â
Matthew was silent for a while, then said, âSo, should I find a craftsman and make it into a necklace?â
Dolores, ââ¦â
âI donât want that,â it would still look dazzling whatever form it was turned into.
She would also buy herself some delicate jewelry. She also attended many fashion parties. As a fashion designer, she was very sensitive to fashion.
She bit his neck and asked vaguely, âWhat donât you want?â.
Doloresâs heart fluttered a little. She bit her lips, âI donât want anything.â
Matthew paused and then bit harder as if in punishment. Dolores moaned in pain.
Last night he didnât touch her because she used her back pain as an excuse. That day he did. However, she agreed to do it once a day herself.
She hid in her long hair and smiled, âWe have to do it twice today to make up for yesterday.â
âMatt⦠Hmp.â
Before she could finish speaking, he grabbed her around the waist, flipped her over and pressed her down on the bed.
Matthew grabbed the edge of her clothes and pulled her up. He tried to pull them off, âDonât wear these kinds of clothes in the future.â It was hard to get it off.
It would be better if it had buttons, which would be easier to remove.
Dolores took a quick breath. Her nervous hands gripped the sheets beneath her.
As he watched her face tense and flushed, Matthew grabbed her chin and carefully looked at her face from left to right. A hint of a smile flitted across his eyes. After a long moment, he grumbled mockingly, âWhy do you look so bad?â
Dolores glared at him, âHow can I look bad? If Iâm ugly, then whyâ¦â Fuck. She was too embarrassed to say the last two words.
He played crazy and arrogant as if he was powerful, âI have no choice. I canât change now. I can only put up with you.â
His laugh sounded deep, plus it had a subtle warmth and adoration to it.
Buzz-
At that moment, the phone Dolores placed on the table suddenly vibrated. Dolores turned her head to look. Just as she was about to reach out to take it, Matthew picked it up first.
âLet me see who it is,â Dolores hurried to say for fear he would hang up.
It was a number with no name.
Matthew didnât want her to take a call right now. He said it was definitely a spam call and hung up.
Dolores, ââ¦â
Although it was a no-name number, it wasnât necessarily a spam call.
However, it rang again a minute after she hung up.
Dolores quickly answered this time. She picked up the phone and unhooked the call. A woman spoke from the other line, âAre you Ms. Flores?â
Dolores agreed with a grunt, âI am.â
âI couldnât deliver the clothes you asked for. Do you have time to go get the clothes from the store?â
âWhy canât you deliver it?â asked Dolores.
Did she have the wrong address?
âThat villa was very guarded. I heard from people nearby that someone died inside. The police have already intervenedâ¦â
Dolores could no longer hear what the staff said at the end. Her face became paler.
Has someone died?
Who?
She shuddered in fear-could it be Jessica Lennon?
âAre you okay?â Matthew frowned as he held her pale face.
âSomething, something could have happened to my mother,â his voice trembled uncontrollably.
Tears filled inside his eyes.
Matthewâs heart sank and he immediately took the phone in his hand. He wanted to know who had made the call.
However, at that moment, Dolores came running out like a madwoman.
She wanted to go find Jessica.
Matthew chased after her closely. She couldnât worry and listen to the voice on the phone anymore.
She ran outside with no clothes on. Matthew grabbed the coat from the rack and chased after her.
He tugged at her who had already lost control, âIâll take you there. Put your clothes on first.â
âNo, I canât wait any longer. I knew Randolph Flores wouldnât become a better person, why wouldnât he believe me, Iâll never forgive Randolph if anything happens to him!â
At this point, I probably couldnât hide it anymore.
âGet in the car. Iâll give you a ride,â Matthew zipped up his coat.
Dolores nodded and quickly got into the car.
After Dolores got into the car, Matthew pulled out his phone and quickly sent a text message to Boyce Shawn. He told Boyce that he was going to give Dolores a ride right now and asked him to fix it there first.
Matthew got in the car and started the engine. He asked, âWho called a little while ago?â
âThe store. I went to the mall to buy a down coat for my mother. I was afraid we would argue again if I ran into her, so I let the boutique deliver it to me. However, a while ago they called and said they could no longer deliver it. The reason wasâ¦â
Dolores choked as she spoke.
Jessica was a weak person in her eyes. Therefore, she instinctively thought that Jessica might have been murdered.
Tension and fear filled her whole head. She stammered worriedly, âWhat should I do, what should I doâ¦â
Matthew grabbed her hand, âJessica wasnât the one who had the accident.â
