Snare of Love

Chapter 287 His Daughter was Very Kind

If she was too reckless, she would have screwed herself up already.

This woman was just too flashy. Did she think she was extremely extraordinary just by wearing clothes

worth more than a thousand?

Wouldn’t that have screwed herself up terribly?

Matthew Nelson never let her go.

The woman was too scared. Wouldn’t she be doomed forever if she didn’t have hands?

No, no, no…She couldn’t live without hands.

However, these people looked extremely terrifying.

Maybe it was because she was too scared. It stimulated the strength inside of her, and she rushed

away from the confinement of the bodyguards. Her movement was so fast that the bodyguards didn’t

even notice her at that moment.

The woman broke away from the bodyguards and leaped towards Dolores Flores.

Matthew thought that the woman was going to hurt Dolores. With a stride, he kicked her away from

approaching her. The woman’s body flew away and hit the tree trunk in the greenbelt.

Matthew’s eyes turned red. He angrily scolded the bodyguards, “What are you doing? Can’t you even

catch a woman?”

The woman covered her chest as she loudly coughed for a few times. “How could I dare have that kind

of thought, let alone harm her?”

She raised her head and looked at Dolores, “I know you’re also a woman, so I want to beg you to plead

for me.”

Dolores also looked extremely cold. It wasn’t because she was indifferent. It was because this woman

crossed her limit.

As a mother, she blamed herself for failing to protect her own child. As for the person who hurt her

child, she couldn’t just forgive and forget.

She wasn’t that great of a person. She was just an ordinary person and an ordinary mother.

“My daughter is just five years old. Ever since she was young, I’ve never said any harsh words to her,

let alone a slap. What gives you the right to do it?” Dolores’ eyes turned red, “Although you’re guilty of

this, you honestly don’t need to cut off your hands. However, you should definitely be taught a lesson.”

The woman opened her mouth for quite a while but didn’t say anything.

Dolores held Simona Flores in her arms. She didn’t want her to see the violent scenario. She

whispered, “I’ll get in the car first.”

Matthew nodded.

“Wait.”

Just when Dolores took a step forward, the little girl lying in her arms raised her head, “Mommy, didn’t

you teach me to be tolerant to other people?”

Dolores slightly nodded. Yes, she did tell this to her daughter before.

Just because one was right, one shouldn’t continue to argue and not forgive. Instead, one should be

tolerant to other people.

However, she failed to do it herself at this moment.

As a mother, she was angry and blamed herself when she saw her own child being slapped.

Simona turned her head to the messy woman sitting on the floor and asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you

know what you did wrong already?”

The woman’s eyes looked gloomy. She mockingly laughed at herself, “You can only see the people

around you clearly after committing a mistake once.”

Her husband usually sweet-talked to her with flattery. However, as soon as he saw that the opponent

had power, he immediately turned into a coward this time around. Not only did he abandon her, he also

despised her for being embarrassing.

Simona sighed. She felt that this woman was very pitiful, “Mommy.” Then she turned her head to

Matthew, “Daddy, just let her go. My face doesn’t hurt anymore.”

Matthew took his daughter over and held her in his arms. Her skin was delicate. It was still very red at

this time, and the marks of the five fingers were still somewhat visible. At first, he stretched out his

hand because he wanted to touch her cheek. However, he was afraid that she might feel the pain, so

he moved his finger across her forehead instead. His daughter was very kind.

However, this world had a hideous side.

“Are you sure?” He asked his daughter softly. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Simona nodded, “I’m sure. Mommy also said before to forgive other people when you can since

forgiving other people can also bring happiness to yourself.”

Matthew raised his eyebrows, “What else did your mommy teach you?”

“I will not attack other people if they didn’t attack me. However, I’ll double their punishment if I was

attacked!” Samuel Flores interjected.

Simona looked at her brother, “Mommy said that to you, but not to me.”

Dolores had different educational concepts for both of her kids. She tried her best to care for her

daughter. She hoped that she would become a self-regulating and open-minded woman of culture and

intellect in the future.

It was different for her son. A man needed to be daring and decisive. A man shouldn’t be afraid of

hardships and the future in order to become a strong and upright man.

That was why what she said to the two kids was also different.

“What does an eye for an eye mean?” Simona blinked her eyes.

Samuel said it without any hesitation, “It means that I have to hit you back if you hit me.”

“But you didn’t even hit me when I hit you,” The little girl naively said.

Samuel really wanted to roll his eyes. Was her younger sister a dummy?

“You’re my younger sisters, so of course I won’t take an eye for an eye with you. Mommy said that

we’re born from the same mother, so we’re siblings of the same blood. I would never hit you no matter

when it is because you are my younger sister. And because both of us are born to mommy.”

Simona tilted her head and thought for a while. She seemed to understand the reason, “Does it mean

that we’ll be even if I hit her back after she hit me?”

Samuel crossed his arms across his chest and rested his chin, “Hmm, it should be two slaps because

she hit you first. She should be punished, so that she can learn the lesson.”

“Then two slaps,” Simona looked at Matthew, “Let Armand slap her twice and we’re even. If you really

chopped off her hands, it would be pitiful since she wouldn’t be able to eat with chopsticks.”

Matthew looked at his daughter’s innocent and clear eyes. He actually didn’t know how to reject her.

Since he didn’t say anything, Simona thought he didn’t agree. So she put her arms around his neck

and acted cute, “Daddy, just let her go.”

In the end, Matthew let her go due to his daughter’s plea. It was not because he wasn’t angry anymore;

he just didn’t want to reject his daughter.

However, Matthew didn’t let Armand Bernie hit her. Instead, he let the two bodyguards hit her. The

strength of Armand’s hands was too weak. The strength of his hands couldn’t compare to those of the

trained bodyguards.

“Let’s go,” Matthew held his daughter in his arms, while Dolores held their son in her arms. Armand

walked in front and led the way.

With two bodyguards, one of them caught the woman and kept her from moving around, while the other

one slapped her.

They walked for a few steps when they heard a slap.

One would know that she was slapped hard just by listening to this crisp sound.

Simona raised her head to look, but Matthew pressed her raised head down into his arms. He didn’t

want her to see it.

The little girl poked her head out from his arms and blinked her big eyes, “Daddy.”

“Hmm?” Matthew lowered his eyes.

The little girl giggled, “Are you angry because I was beaten up?”

Matthew raised his eyebrow, “Why did you ask that?”

“Because your anger proves that you care for me. So of course I’m happy,” The little girl seemed to

have forgotten the fear brought by that slap.

Simona blinked her eyes and emphasized it again, “I’m very happy.”

She felt extremely happy and blessed because her daddy, mommy, and brother loved her.

She wouldn’t think that it was the end of the world already just from this much of pain.

Because the people she liked also liked her.

Matthew spoke with a hoarse voice, “Silly, you’re daddy’s child. Who would I love if I don’t love you?”

The little girl smiled. Her brows and eyes curled in exactly the same way whenever Dolores smiled.

Matthew thought it looked pretty. But when he touched the mark on her face, his smile sank again.

He got into the car while he held his daughter and sat in the innermost seat. He didn’t want to look at

anyone nor say anything. He just held his daughter and never let go.

Samuel rolled over the jackfruit Armand bought, “Simona, do you want to eat this?”

The little girl shook her head for the first time, “I don’t want to eat it.”

Samuel was too shocked to react for a long while. He couldn’t believe her foodie sister actually didn’t

want to eat it today.

It was really, really strange.

Simona motionlessly lay in Matthew’s arms. It was as if she felt what Matthew was feeling, so she

wanted to stay with him.

Dolores knew that Matthew was still thinking about how Simona was slapped. She was also blaming

herself.

The car slowly drove out of the service area and went into the highway.

Dolores was sitting in front, when the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.

She took out her phone.
