Snare of Love novel Chapter 59

Although the divorce certificate was not applied, but it had been six years. A normal married couple could automatically break off their marriage if they lived apart for six years, right?

Dolores pretended to be calm, “A married couple who lived apart for two years can voluntarily break off their marriage...”

“Which teacher taught you law?” Matthew taunted her.

Six years ago, this woman disappeared without a trace.

In life, he had already gotten used to her existence at home. But ever since she left, his villa became so quiet. The villa lacked human warmth and it didn’t feel like home anymore. His heart, was empty too.

Elaine thought he was ridiculous.

“You’re getting engaged soon, and we still have marital relations? What’s in it for you? Don’t you know bigamy is a big crime?”

Matthew wasn’t angry at all as he quietly stared at her.

She was as sharp-tongued as ever.

Dolores felt nervous as he kept staring at her. She trembled anxiously, “I still have work to do.”

She wanted to escape after saying that.

Matthew grabbed her arm and pulled her vigorously, causing her to fall backwards. He wrapped his arms around her waist and embraced her tightly. They were so close together that she could feel his warmth and heartbeat.

Dolores stared at him. She stiffened her body as she didn’t dare to move and said, “Let me go, if not I’ll sue you!”

Matthew rubbed her wrist with his finger pulp, and led her hand towards his shirt. His eyes were charming as he said in a hoarse voice, “Sue me of what?”

Not waiting for Dolores’s reply, he continued, “Sue me for sexually harassing you?”

“...”

Before Dolores could react, he leaned over while holding the back of her head and kissed her.

It was a familiar breath, as always.

A breath that he was fascinated with.

Dolores took a breath and she instantly blushed all over. She felt her heart beating like a storm in her chest. She forced herself to calm down. In desperation, she opened her mouth and bit his lips.

Matthew was in pain, and he slightly loosened his lips. With that, Dolores quickly pushed him away.

Then, she turned around and ran away.

Matthew watched Dolores’s back who fled in a hurry. He raised his hand to rub the corner of his mouth and there was blood on the back of his hand.

This woman bit him. She wasn’t like this before.

He swallowed the blood at the corner of his lips where Dolores bit.

“Matthew.” Maria stood at the door of the stairwell, trembling with anger.

Judging from her appearance, she ought to have seen what happened just now.

Matthew raised his gaze. He didn’t care about her feelings at all and said, “Our engagement is cancelled, I won’t marry you.”

Maria got panicked. She jumped on Matthew and grabbed his arm, “Matthew, our families had already agreed on it. Besides, this was what your father wanted...”

Matthew pushed her away aggressively. He might have used too much strength that Maria stepped back several paces. If there wasn’t a wall behind, she would surely fall on the ground.

“Regarding my father, I’ll explain it to him.” Matthew didn’t have the thought to hold her up. He took a step and walked away.

Maria quickly hugged his leg and cried, “Matthew, it has been so many years. Why can’t you forgive me?”

Matthew’s eyes were fierce and firm, “You should have thought of the circumstances when you lied to me.”

Six years ago, she told Matthew that she had a miscarriage and he thought it was true. He wanted to take the responsibility even though he didn’t love her.

But she lied to him.

She wasn’t pregnant at all.

This was why he didn’t marry her six years ago.

This time, it was just a marriage to make connections between two families.

It was the order of his old man.

He was willing to accept this order without Dolores, but he couldn’t now!

“I was wrong, Matthew. Could you please forgive me this time? Maria didn’t care about her image and dignity. She only wanted this man that she loved so much to come back to her.

“I can give you anything you want, except marriage.” He turned around and pulled her hands away. “You’re the young lady of the Herbert family. There are so many men in this world, why must you shame yourself?”
