“None.” Matthew gently closed his eyes.

Dolores was puzzled, “Then why?”

Then she realized something and asked, “Was it due to money?” However, she was unsure as so many years had passed without any incidents concerning money. Then why would something occur now because of money?

Dolores shook her head and then nodded, “A little, I’m feeling much better.”

“I have some affairs that I need to go and settle. Have a good rest.”

Matthew lifted the blanket beside Joshua and got her to lay down and said, “Take a nap. I’ll be home soon.”

Dolores noticed that he looked very tired and haggard. Her heart ached for him. Actually, he must be feeling terrible since his father had just passed away and Joshua was kidnapped. Now at least Joshua’s safely home.

“Okay,” Matthew replied and covered her with the blanket.

He stood up when she closed her eyes. He took another look at Joshua before stepping out.

Jasmine stood up when she saw Matthew coming down the stairs. She grasped her hands nervously and said, “How’s Jos?”

Matthew acknowledged and Jasmine was extremely relieved.

“Can I take a look at Jos?” Jasmine softly asked.

“He’s asleep. Perhaps later.” Matthew said and left the house. Jasmine quickly nodded.
