Entwined Destinies: Captured Hearts

Chapter 62: He Could Still Have Feelings for a PersonCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Jayden sat down onto the sofa again and asked Thomas to come over, “Go investigate whether if something special had happened to Matthew when he went abroad this time.”He couldn’t help but think wildly about the reasons behind this since he cancelled the engagement out of no reasons. Victoria reached out to hold up Jayden’s hand and said with a worried look, “If he knows that you are investigating into him, he will definitely be annoyed. His relationship with us has already been tensed, why not have a further talk with him later?”Thomas also chimed in, “Yeah. You’re also clear about young master’s temper.”Jayden’s pulled a longer face and said coldly, “With his bad temper, can I reach an agreement with him regarding this matter?”He got less gloomy after saying the words and added in a firm attitude, “I can let him act willfully when it comes to other matters. But he can’t act like that this time.”This matter was crucial to the future of the Nelson family after all. Victoria still tried to persuade him, yet was interrupted by Jayden before she could say anything, “No need to persuade me. I’ve made up my mind regarding this matter.”He then raised his head to look at Thomas, “Go.””Er…” Thomas looked at Victoria with a hesitant look. Victoria heaved a sigh, “Let it be. The father and the son all have bad tempers. Who can persuade them?”Thomas could only follow Jayden’s order. Just as Matthew had walked out of the mansion, he was stopped by Maria.”Matthew…”Matthew ignored and walked past her and headed towards the car. Maria chased after him and grabbed his arm, “I have been following you for many years. But are you going to abandon me just because a single mistake I made?”Matthew suddenly paused. His movement was so sudden that Maria bumped against him before having time to react. She lifted her head and gazed at his handsome face that she had been infatuated with for a long time. Matthew looked down at the woman who had been staying by his side for a long time. He had once thought that although this woman was scheming and wasn’t as pure as she looked like on the surface, she had given her virginity to him after all and therefore he had to be responsible for her both emotionally and logically. Although he didn’t have affections to her, he should be responsible for her. Nevertheless, the moment when he saw Dolores again, he felt that his heart, which had been beating steadily, thumped wildly because of her. It turned out that he could still have feelings for a person. He didn’t know what the reasons behind this were. He just knew that if he married Maria, he would definitely regret it in the future. Matthew reached out to caress her cheek and said in a gentle voice, “Did you really only make mistake once?”He had turned a blind eye to her sins for many times and was unwilling to investigate into them. But it didn’t mean that he knew nothing about them. Maria was a bit stunned, pondering, ‘What… what did he know?’Thinking carefully about it, it was impossible for him to find it out since it had been so many years. Moreover, with the support of her elder brother, he definitely would not be able to find out anything. If he threw a temper tantrum at her or reprimanded her, maybe she would have room to maneuver this matter. Nevertheless, he looked extremely dispassionate. The more dispassionate he looked, the more determined he was. Maria was very flustered and grabbed Matthew’s arm tightly, “Matthew, I love you. Don’t you know about my feelings for you after getting along with me for so many years?””But I don’t like you.” After finishing the words, Matthew laughed scornfully. It was indeed a self-mockery. Maria shook her head crazily and growled out of control, “No, no, you love me. You are so good to me…””That’s not love.” It was just because he had to be responsible for having taking her virginity that night. He had forced himself to love her. Nevertheless, over the past years, he still failed to take fancy to her.”I will compensate you, but not with my marriage.” He prised her hand from his arm, apparently not willing to continue this topic any longer. But Maria refused to let go of him, “I don’t want your compensation. I just want you.”Although she refused to admit this, it was evident that Matthew had really taken fancy to Dolores. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have changed dramatically like he had changed into the other man after seeing Dolores. His attitude was so resolute. She roared in heart, ‘Why didn’t that woman die in the car accident?’

“What’s so great about that person? She already had a man when she married you back then…””Enough?” Matthew interrupted her, “You should go back and calm down yourself first. We can talk about this matter later.” He didn’t want to talk with her at the moment.”Matthew… Matthew…” Maria cried heart-wrenchingly but Matthew just ignored her. The driver had opened the car door and was waiting for Matthew. He stooped and got into the car. When the driver asked him where to go, Matthew rubbed the place between his eyebrows and replied blandly, “Go to the company.”In Country A…Dolores had been highly strung up after seeing Matthew and accidently broke her bowl when having the meal. Jessica gazed at her daughter and asked with concerned, “Is there any problem in your work? You have been absent-minded after coming back. You haven’t stopped working all theses year. Why not having a rest?”Samuel studied Dolores secretly, pondering his mother’s abnormal behaviors must be because that ??(w).??ve(l)?????. combastard. When imagining about that bastard bullying his mother, Samuel felt so angry that he gritted his teeth and tightly grasped the chopsticks, wishing so much that he could beat up that bastard. Dolores pulled herself together and in order to prevent Jessica from worrying about her, she told a lie, “I’m fine. May… Maybe it’s because I didn’t have a good sleep last night. It’s okay.”Samuel put a piece of meat into Dolores’s bowl, “Mummy, have more meat.”Seeing that her son was so thoughtful, Dolores smiled consolingly and reached out to stroke his hair, “You should eat more since you’re in the time of physical growth.”She then ladled a bowl of spareribs soup for her son. Simona pouted, feeling unhappy when seeing this and gazed at Dolores, “Mummy, you’re biased. You love brother and don’t love me.”Jessica chuckled, “See, this child starts to pout at a young age.”Samuel handed the bowl of soup to Simona, “You take it. Is this okay?”Simona was easy to be coaxed as she was not an unforgiving person. Seeing that her elder brother had handed her the bowl of soup, she cracked a smile. After the meal, Dolores went to wash the dishes while Jessica went to bath Simona. Samuel took out his tablet PC. Recalling that when they were taking dictations in the police office, that man had told the officers that his name was Matthew Nelson, he input his name in the search column of Baidu (Google’s counterpart in China). Then he saw various webpages about Matthew. He was born in City B in China and was now the president of WY Group. His height was 185 cm and his weight was 65 kg. He was now 32 years old. He had taken over WY Group and became the president of the company at the age of 22. He had been on top of the rich list of the nation for many times and was the youngest rich in the country. But his marital status remained unknown. He only once admitted a girlfriend Maria Herbert. Samuel curled his lips as he hadn’t expected that that bastard was so rich. He was rich, but could he behave willfully? He was rich, but could he bully his mother? He clenched his fists tightly and swore that he would teach that annoying man a lesson one day. He then put down his tablet PC and reached out for the phone. When he was about to call his teacher, Dolores walked out of the kitchen. Seeing that Samuel was about to make a phone call, she asked, “It’s ?w?.???(e)l?(h)??(e).(c)??so late now. But you don’t take a bath. Who are you going to connect?””…”Samuel was not a good liar as every time when he was lying, he would blush. He didn’t know how to answer the question at the moment. Dolores felt it weird and walked over to study him. She then accidently found that there was Matthew’s information in the tablet PC on the sofa and furrowed her brows. It was too late for Samuel to hide the tablet PC and he could only watch Dolores picking up it. Dolores gazed at her son, asking, “Why did you do this?”Dolores felt it weird and walked over to study him.
