“Unless Jeffrey opens his mouth, I'm afraid this is no easy matter to deal with."
Boyce was very clear about this. Since Jeffery had decided to do this, he would have expected that Matthew would get extremely angry.
Since he had reached this point, it would be impossible for him to stop halfway. Otherwise, his previous arrangements would be in vain.
Unless Matthew agreed to his request.
All that he had done was to force Matthew to give in.
Boyce felt very anxious. With Dolores's current condition, if Matthew really left her because of this matter, what could she do?
He knew that Matthew would definitely not compromise. But, even if it were temporary, Dolores would still get hurt by it.
Armand and Boyce went back to the ward. Officer Sharp sent someone to guard at the hospital entrance, and he was there as well, sitting on the row chair.
The moment Armand saw Officer Sharp, he got angry. Boyce quickly stopped him, "Don't get impulsive."
Officer Sharp was not the key point. The key point was Jeffery.
He was just the person who carried out the plan, not the mastermind.
Boyce pulled Armand into the house.
It was very quiet and clean inside the house. Dolores was still unconscious, and Matthew saw beside her, holding her palm in his hand. Her cold palms had already been warmed by his hands.
Boyce and Armand stood by the bed.
"What do you plan to do?"
Boyce spoke in a soft voice, afraid that he might disturb Dolores.
The light rays that came in from outside the window shone on half of Matthew's face. His thick eyelashes slightly fluttered, held Dolores's hands, and his thumb slowly caressed through Dolores's delicate arm.
"Boyce, do you still have anyone else that you can use?"
His voice was deep, without showing any emotions.
Boyce replied, "Yes."
And it was his most trusted men.
"Let them keep an eye on the Chamber's family house. Seize Chloe once she appears." novelbin
There was no way out of this. Dolores's charges could never be cleared unless Jeffery opens his mouth.
However, it was obvious that Jeffery would not open his mouth since he wanted Matthew to marry Chloe. But what if Chloe was captured by him?
‘Can he threaten them with this?’
‘Jeffrey wants him to marry Chloe?’
Boyce and Armand looked at each other. Why was this related to the Chamber's family?
Why would Matthew want to capture Chloe?
Matthew told them frankly, "They wanted me to marry her."
Armand was too angry and spoke recklessly, "Has Jeffery gone mad?"
Matthew glanced askance at him. Armand quickly covered his mouth. He was too agitated just now, so he accidentally raised his voice.
"You may all leave first."
Now, he just wanted to accompany her alone.
"I'll go personally."
Boyce was clear of Matthew's purpose. Capturing Chloe was the most important thing now, and it's the only turning point for this incident.
Armand was unable to provide any assistance at the moment, "If you need me, you can call me anytime."
Boyce replied to him, “Okay.”
The two of them went out of the door together.
Officer Sharp was still at the door, seemingly guarding it personally as if he was afraid that Matthew might move Dolores somewhere else.
Matthew would not do that.
Hiding Dolores would not solve the root problem. If a warrant was issued, Dolores would be officially convicted.
As soon as the door was closed, the room returned to its previous silence once again. Matthew lay down beside the bed and put Dolores's head in on top of his arms. At this moment, the phone in his pocket started vibrating.
He frowned as if he was a little displeased that someone was calling him right now. As soon as the call was connected, Simona's soft and sweet voice came through, "Daddy."
Matthew spoke softly, "Yes."
"Have you eaten dinner?"
The little girl asked caringly.
Matthew gently replied to his daughter, "I've eaten."
At the Nelson Mansion, Simona was holding the phone while surrounded by Samuel and Sean. At this moment, Sean was mouthing words to Simona, signaling her to ask Matthew what time he and Dolores would come back home.
Because of the TV show from before, Sean wanted to look for Dolores. And tomorrow morning would be the 24th hour after the game, they would need to open handcuffs in front of the audience.
That was why he came here today. On the one hand, he wanted to see the two children, and secondly, he needed to discuss with Dolores regarding this matter. However, it was so late already, and they hadn't come back yet.
Therefore, he asked Simona to call Matthew.
The little girl instantly understood his gestures and said to the phone, "Daddy, what time are you and mommy coming back home?"
Sean immediately gave Simona a thumbs up. She's so clever.
Matthew lowered his eyes and looked at Dolores who was still deeply asleep, and said in a low voice, "I and your mummy have some other things to do, so we are not going back tonight."
The little girl frowned, why weren't they coming back?
"Are you two playing something fun, deliberately not bring me and brother?"
The little girl said aggrievedly.
Sean was stunned. Why were they not coming back?
Then where could he go find Dolores?
He took the phone from Simona, "Let me talk to your dad."
"Matthew, why are you two not coming back? I’m waiting for you guys at home.”
Hearing that it was Sean, Matthew's voice became even deeper, "Sean, stay at my place for the next few days."
Sean was a trustable person. He was worried about the two children at home. Since Sean was Simona's previous teacher, and he was also familiar with the two children, he could put his mind at ease if Sean stayed at his house.
Sean blinked his eyes. He had always wanted to stay at Matthew's villa, but last time he didn't agree to let him stay here, thinking that he would make trouble.
But what happened today?
This wasn't like Matthew at all.
"Matthew, is something wrong? Do you need my help?"
