Dolores was asleep. Jessica answered Matthew, “A lady gave these to Dolores when she came visiting her.”

“What’s her name?” Matthew asked again.

Jessica shook her head, “I don’t know…”

Dolores slowly opened her eyes when she heard somebody talking while she was sleeping. Matthew approached Dolores and whispered, “You’re awake?”

Dolores rubbed her eyes. She was a light sleeper, “Why did you come back?”

Matthew didn’t answer Dolores, but instead, he asked her back, “Did you meet Emma?”

Did he found out about it so soon?

Dolores got up from the bed, “Did you come back to ask me this? How did you know about that?”

Matthew then told Dolores what happened between Emma and Abbott.

Just like telling Dolores a gossip to ease her boredom. Matthew knew Dolores was bored to stay in the room all day.

Dolores widened her eyes and was stunned after hearing what Matthew told her. She recovered from shock after a while, “Emma and Abbott?”

Matthew reached out his hand and tucked Dolores’ hair behind her ears, “You’re surprised?”

Dolores nodded. She had a feeling that something wasn’t quite right.

Dolores told Matthew what she thought, “She didn’t have to sacrifice herself even if she wanted vengeance.”

Dolores couldn’t understand why Emma used herself as bait. She could have used another woman instead.

The kind Emma could use the money to pay them. Emma really didn’t need to do it herself.

What was she thinking?

“Did she fall in love with Abbott?” Dolores took a wild guess.
