Snare of Love novel Chapter 465

There was an envelope inside.

Dolores reached in and took the envelope out. She opened the sealing thread and took out what was inside the envelope. There were two letters in it. One of them said ‘Dear Jeffery, my brother’, while the other one didn’t indicate who the letter was for. Dolores wasn’t expecting anything when she opened the safety box. However, when she saw the letters, she frowned, and her hands were shaking.

Dolores knew the letters were written by Jolene when she saw the words ‘Dear Jeffery, my brother’.

Dolores calmed herself down and continued to take out what was in the envelope. She saw a document. It was the Equity Agreement of the JK Group.

Dolores had never heard of JK Group. Based on what was stated in the Agreement, the JK Group was a company limited by shares. However, there weren’t many shareholders for the company because the Equity Agreement Dolores was holding was worth eighty per cent of shares of the JK Group.

Suddenly, something dropped out on the floor from the envelope.

Dolores looked down, and she saw an exquisite hollowed-out pendant on the floor. She picked it up and found out that it was a locket. She opened the locket and saw a photo in it. It was a photo of two persons. The photo was small, but Dolores could see the face of the person in the photo clearly. The woman in the photo had dark and long straight hair. She had a beautiful face, and she looked a little like Dolores.

But she resembled the man in the photo even more.

The man in the photo was suave and handsome. He looked like a pretty boy, but he had masculine features. If Dolores didn’t notice his dark and mysterious eyes, she would think it was just a pretty boy.

Dolores thought, “This is the man Jolene admire.”

Dolores was excited, but she could calm herself down very quickly. It was probably because she had never met Jolene and the man in the photo before.

Then, Dolores found out that the pendant used the same material as her necklace. She took out her necklace from the pocket. Yes, they came in a set. The pendant fitted into the necklace.

Dolores returned everything into the envelope and put it back into the safety box. Then, she opened the letter without a signature. As she unfolded the letter, she saw neat handwriting spread out on the paper.

“Dear Dolores, I wasn’t sure if you would see this letter. I secretly hope that you won’t, but at the same time, I hope you do. At least you would know who I was and who your father was. The reason I didn’t want you to read this was because I wanted you to live in a functional family like a normal person. How I wish I could see you grow up. I wonder if you’d look like him, or you’d look like me? All in all, I wish you growing up healthily and safely.”

“What you saw in the envelope were what we’ve left for you. If you’re in trouble, go and find Oscar. He’ll help you and protect you.”

“I believe that you must be going through something if you’re reading this letter. Jessica wouldn’t tell you about the letter if you’re happy with your life.”

“No matter what you’ve heard about your father, please believe none of it. He is a good man.”

“I, Jolene, is your mother, and Stanley is your father. Not many people knew about him, but you should know it.”

“I must apologize to you for giving birth to you but weren’t able to raise you. But we love you, dearly.”

“I always believe that you’re a gift from heaven. I couldn’t control my happiness when you’re born. You’re the offspring of Stanley and me. You’re also an imprint of our existence.”

“May you be surrounded by bliss, happiness, warmth, and good luck forever. From, Jolene.”

A drop of tear fell onto the letter. Dolores wasn’t in pain, nor she was holding grudges or hatred. Tears flew out for no reason.

Like Dolores couldn’t control herself.

“Ms. Flores, are you there?” the manager called Dolores because she was in there for too long.

Dolores quickly wiped off her tears and replied, “Yes. I’ll be out soon.”

Dolores put everything back into the envelope and closed the safety box. Then she walked out of the room with another envelope. She looked calm. She told the bodyguard, “Let’s go.”

The manager saw her out, “Do contact me if you need further assistance.”

Dolores turned around and glanced at the manager, “I don’t want people to know I was here.”

The manager smiled, “Sure. It is our job to protect the privacy of our customers.”

Dolores nodded. The bodyguard opened the car door for her, and she got into the car.

Dolores rested her chin on her hand and stared outside, “Do you know what to respond when people asked for my whereabouts today?”

The bodyguard took a quick look at Dolores while driving. He knew what Dolores meant, but he wasn’t sure what she would want him to respond.
