“Um.” Victoria replied her faintly.

“Is he willing to stop?” Dolores asked eagerly.

Victoria let out a deep breathe and shook her head, “No, he seems to find out Matthew’s identity, but I won’t let him to continue his investigation.”

Dolores was just about to say that Matthew knew about it when the phone on the dining table vibrated.

It showed the phone number of Boyce Shawn.

Dolores looked at Victoria, “I’ll take a call first.”

She got up and walked to the window, pressing the answer button, “Hello?”

“It’s me. I’ve found out what Matthew asked me to investigate.”

She felt nervous and she straightened her back, “Go ahead.”

“It’s not clear in a sentence or two. Let’s meet and talk,” said Boyce.

She thought for a moment and said, “Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, she put the phone into her pocket, walked to the dining room and saw Victoria was looking at the sea cucumbers inside the bowl.

She smiled and asked, “Mom, you’re hungry too, right?”

As she spoke, she went to the kitchen, got a clean bowl and scooped her own sea cucumber for her, “Don’t mind, it’s untouched.”

Victoria grabbed her hand, “I’m not hungry, you eat it. Look at how thin you’re. You shouldn’t get yourself into this mess.”

Dolores said yes.

Thinking of Matthew’s temper, she didn’t want to have anything to do with Charles.

Victoria entered the house while Dolores held her breath and swallowed the sea cucumbers, then drank some water and went out after putting on her clothes.

Boyce sent her the address where they would meet and she drove there.

It was a bar and there weren’t many people inside as it was daytime. It was quiet and he was drinking in his seat.

When he saw her enter, he asked, “What would you like to drink?”
