Snare of Love novel Chapter 266

Armand had been dispirited and dejected for some time due to Phoebe Lewis. He could not recover from his break-up with her for quite a long while. Mrs. Leslie did not like women that would make her grandson sad and sorrowful. In order to avoid things change when Armand saw Phoebe when he returned, she decided to make them get married there before they returned.

Boyce’s expression changed at once. Now he finally understood why Mrs. Leslie was so stubborn in inquiring about Armand’s whereabouts, and would come all the way here amidst such a blizzard. It turned out Phoebe had returned and she was afraid that her grandson would be nice to her again. Afraid that Boyce would inform Armand, Mrs. Leslie grasped his arm and threatened him, “Don’t tell Armand, or I’ll be angry.”

Boyce had pondered whether to tell Armand at first, after all, the woman whom he once adored had come back now. Yet he did not dare to say it now. If that old lady gets mad and does something, he would be in huge trouble. Now he regretted having asked her that. He wished he did not know that earlier. He would be guilty whether he said it or not.

“What are you guys chitchatting?” Armand came close to them. Boyce pushed him away. “Well, urm…yeah, I’m thinking how much money should I give you as a wedding gift.” Boyce told a lie that he considered flawless after muttering for a long while.

Armand did not notice any aberrancy of his grandma being that anxious to ask him to get married at all. He only felt that his grandma was being a little bit more anxious and she had used to urge him to get married sooner. “The more the merrier of course,” Armand said excitedly. He was certainly delighted to get money. “Sure.” Boyce was not stingy and he said, “I’ll give you lots.”

“Since your best friends are all here, and I think this hotel looks good, let’s settle then, your wedding would be held on the 18th.”

“Well, I…”

“It’s okay, it doesn’t matter whether it’s day or night.” Theresa wanted to say that she had not agreed to it and they should not settle the marriage that soon, but Armand snatched her hand. Afraid that Theresa would change her mind, Armand said, “Sure, 18th then, we could get the marriage certificate later.” The wedding of Armand and Theresa was then settled.

After lunch, Mrs. Leslie dragged Boyce along to look for the person in charge of the hotel to discuss about the venue for wedding. Dolores had been uneasy because of Matthew keeping a distance away from her on purpose. She did not express any personal opinion regarding Armand and Theresa’s marriage. Plus, since Armand had dragged Theresa away, she did not have time and chance to speak to Theresa too.

“Mommy, I can see you’re having a bad mood.” Samuel held her hands and asked, “Did you have a fight with him?” Matthew used to love clinging to Dolores. Yet not only he did not do so today, he did not even sit with her when they were having meals.

Dolores caressed her son’s head. She had thoughts in mind, and she was reluctant to confess to her son. Samuel was a very attentive child, if he had found out anything, he might begin to worry for her. Yet it was obvious Matthew was behaving abnormally. Dolores then said, “It’s nothing, married couples always have fight.”

“Is that so? Please reconcile as soon as possible then,” Samuel said with care. Dolores smiled and agreed.

Samuel released her hand and went back to his own room when he reached his room. He was addicted to video games recently and he would play games on his bed whenever he was free. Matthew was with Simona and they were not in the room. Dolores went to look for them in another room but they were still not there. The room was empty and no one was seen.
