Snare of Love novel Chapter 39

The doctor’s words that day still echoed in her mind. All she heard was the doctor’s heartless voice, “Your brother is already hopeless…”

The tears that welled up in her eyes fell.

She hugged Jessica tightly, “Jeremy is in school, I’ll bring him to see you next time.”

Jessica’s mind was a bit chaotic. She nodded in confusion and stopped talking.

Dolores wiped the tears off her face and smiled, “Mom, what do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”

Jessica did not say a word and her hands were circling her knees. This was a sign of having insecurity.

When Dolores spoke to her, she just stared blankly somewhere. Her vision was unfocused and her eyes looked empty.

“Mom…” Dolores grabbed her shoulder and shook, “Talk to me, look at me. I’m Lola, your daughter.”

Just now Jessica obviously could recognize her. She even called her by her name.

Dolores could not accept Jessica’s memory confusion as she remembered at an uncertain time and would forget not long after.

“Don’t do this.” The nurse who patrolled saw that Dolores was quite agitated so she came in to stop her.

Dolores looked at the nurse, “Is my mother’s condition getting serious?”

“Psychiatric patients are normally like this.” The nurse looked at the clock, “The visiting time is almost up, you shouldn’t get too emotional in front of the patient as it will affect the patient.”

Dolores nodded, “I understood.”

Dolores told Jessica about the memories in the past. Dolores was drawn into the state of recalling her memories.

It was only when the visiting time ended and the nurse called her that she regained her presence of mind. She looked at Jessica, not willing to leave, “Mom, I’ll come to see you again after a few days.”

“Lola.” When Dolores walked to the door, Jessica suddenly made a sound. Dolores turned her body and found that Jessica was not looking at her.

Jessica froze and looked somewhere, soliloquizing, “My daughter, Lola is pregnant. The child has no father, what should she do in the future?”

She cried as she said that.

Dolores only felt that her heart was burned by fire. She felt excruciating pain.

She was afraid that she could not contain her emotions. So, she turned and walked out of the room.

She sat alone on the bench in the corridor.

“Lola.” Sampson walked over in his white coat.

Dolores stood up.

Sampson walked up to her and patted her shoulder, which meant to let her sit down, “I have something to tell you.”

Dolores sat on the bench while Sampson sat next to her, “You saw it, right?”

“Um.” Her hands were clasped together, cold and clammy.

“You’ve to be mentally prepared, it’s hard to recover fully from a situation like this.” Sampson sighed, “She was dealt with a too big blow and if her condition reaches the worst condition it’ll be very serious. She will selectively forget some memories, especially the things that make her filled with agony. Therefore, she will have memory confusion.”

Dolores bit her lips, “She forgot the fact that Jeremy had passed away, and asked why I didn’t bring him along to come and see her.”

Sampson reached out and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, rubbing her arm, “Don’t cry, I’m here. Don’t need to worry, I’ll take good care of your mother.”

Dolores bowed her head and said, “Thank you.”

“No problem.” Sampson sagged his eyes, thought for a while and finally chose to express his thought, “Lola, when the agreement you have done with Matthew reaches the end, let me take care of you, okay?”

Dolores looked at Sampson, startled, “Sampson…”

“I know it may be too sudden for you to accept this. You already know me for a long time, I’m not a bad man, I just want to take care of you. You have to consider for the sake of the child in your belly even if you don’t consider for your own sake. The child needs a complete family in order to grow decently, I have this capability.”

Sampson’s words had already come to this point. If she still did not understand, she must be silly.

However, she just treated Sampson as a family member.

“Don’t worry, I’ll treat him as if he’s my child.” Sampson looked particularly serious.
