Chapter 508


Armand twisted his head and looked at Boyce in surprise. A miracle had happened as he even had a question to ask himself.


He resented him usually. Was that the moon was different in Country Y and Country Z? Did it make people change their nature?


“You say.”


As he met Armand’s eyes which filled with gossip and curiosity, he swallowed what he wanted to ask. If he told him about the matter which Jasmine kissed him, he would surely ridicule him in sarcasm.


The words on the tip of her tongue took another turn, “Didn’t you notice that woman called Renee is quite pretty?”


Boyce accentuated the pronunciation of the word ‘Gordon’, trying to remind him.


However, Armand focused on the point which that woman was pretty as it was the first time he heard Boyce praise a woman.


He let out a laugh with a somewhat cold accent.


Boyce was baffled by his laugh and he felt panicked, “What are you laughing at?”


“I’m laughing that you and Matthew are both bewitched by that woman.” He slapped his shoulder and said seriously, “Listen to me, look for that university student who hadn’t worked in society yet. It’s easier to seduce. You can’t manage this woman, don’t think about it.”


Boyce was speechless.


Was his reminder not obvious enough?


Was his head full of shit?


He didn’t want to be foul-mouthed, but when did this bastard become so stupid?


He was really foolish!


“Don’t talk anymore. Let’s go back and drink.” Boyce no longer wanted to talk with him as he was afraid that he would die of anger if he continued this conversation.


Armand was still curious about the reason why Matthew was going there and asked, “Don’t you feel curious where he had gone?”


Boyce glanced at him, “What do you think he is most interested in right now?”


He thought for a moment, “Could it be that he suddenly left to look for Dolores?”


Boyce thought in his mind, “His brain is still well-functioning as he knows what Matthew is most concerned about. His brains seemed to be clear, how come he’s like a dumbass when it comes to his own affairs?”


“Don’t he stay with us all the time? Where does the clue come from?” Armand was confused, then he guessed quickly, “Could it be that he secretly asked someone to investigate?”


Boyce was speechless.


Armand didn’t realize his lifeless face and said, “He isn’t cool at all as he even hides it from two of us. After all we still intend to investigate for him when he was feeling bad. Who knows he has investigated it himself.”


“At least he knows to devote love to his wife. How about you?” he couldn’t help and said it.


Like he mentioned Theresa, Armand’s expression soon turned unrelaxed and said wistfully, “You know my situation before as everyone concealed her whereabouts from me. The only channel I could find out was from Dolores. Now Dolores has gone too and I don’t dare to look for Theresa as I’m afraid that I’ll scare her. I’m afraid that she will be getting emotional, causing her to be hurt again if she sees me.”


He twisted his head to look at Boyce, “Boyce, I’m suffering.”


Boyce slapped his own mouth, “Don’t talk anymore, let’s have a drink.”


As his buddy, he had done his best to remind him. It wasn’t his fault as he didn’t think of it that way.


Two of them returned to the hotel, ordered the drinks and drank in their room. Both of them were dead drunk.


Neither of them woke up in the morning and one was lying on the sofa while the other was on the bed. No one bothered them, so they slept until evening. Then they washed up and bought tickets for their return.


On the other hand, Matthew rested for a night at a hotel near the airport of Country Y. He boarded the plane early in the morning and it landed in City C of Country Z at about 4 p.m.


The sky was bright at this time and the sun was still a bit dazzling. Yet he could still feel the scorching heat even though it wasn’t as intense as midday.


Usually Matthew had someone to accompany him wherever he went and those basic necessities were all well-arranged for him without having him worry at all. But this time he came in a hurry, so he didn’t bring anything at all. Because of the hot weather, the collar of his white blouse was slightly opened and his shirt was badly creased due to the long flight. He walked out of the airport through the crowd with his suit on his right arm.


The airport was crowded, thus there were also many taxis waiting for the passengers at the entrance.


Matthew boarded a random taxi and gave his address.


Soon the driver drove off and it didn’t take long to arrive at the entrance of the YJ community. He took out the money from his wallet and handed it to the driver. A wallet and a mobile phone were the only things he had with him.


He pushed the door open and got out of the car. There was a gate at the entrance of the district with a security guard standing there and there was a towering stone with the words ‘YJ community’ carved on it. He stood there but he didn’t dare to walk forward.


He didn’t know what he could say to her as he suddenly appeared in front of her in this way.


Could he see her without any distractions in his mind?


The answer was no. Since Jeffery’s matter hadn’t yet settled, he didn’t know what expression he could use to face her and what he could say to her in his first words.


Until this moment, he just truly experienced that contradiction in his mind and understood why she must leave back then.


If she hadn’t left, it would have been great torture to both of them during this period.


It was better to miss than to be speechless.


“Mummy, when will Renee be back?” Amanda Nelson asked. Since Theresa had changed her appearance and name, the two children called her in a particularly smooth way and even more naturally than before.


After Dolores came back from the XF textile mill, she went to pick up two children from preschool. On the way back they went to the supermarket and they didn’t drive because it was close. They just walked back along the roadside shaded by the phoenix trees. Andrew Nelson held Amanda’s hand and wobbled around with the schoolbags on their backs which had some simple books inside that were needed for class.


“It should be soon. I think she will be back tomorrow.” She had received a call from Theresa and knew what was going on over there. Even if it was over, there were still a lot of things to be solved, so she couldn’t come back immediately.


In her hands, there were the things they had just bought.


As Matthew who was standing at the entrance heard this sound, he turned his head to look over and saw the three small and large figures not far away.


The two children hadn’t changed much, Andrew wore a white short-sleeve shirt, beige trousers and white shoes, while Amanda wore a pink dress with lace trim and a pair of rhinestone-embellished sandals, exposing half of her white calves. Two of them held each other’s hands and looked affectionate.


Compared to Andrew, Amanda was always less steady as she even stepped on the ground with fallen leaves when walking.


Dolores also wore a chiffon dress, with a thin belt tied around her waist in a bow, falling casually on her right side. Her stomach which wasn’t protruding initially looked pregnant now. Against the breeze, the fabric clung to her body, making it even more obvious. Her fair arms which carried the things were exposed and she looked down at her two children with her face showing a faint smile.
