Chapter 245 The Scandal
Chapter 245 The Scandal
In the latter half of the night, Dolores had deeply slept. She felt itchy on her face, and she slightly
moved. Half-awake, she felt that someone was kissing her face and her lips.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw clear and bright eyes that were looking at her.
“Why aren't you sleeping?” she had just woke up, and her voice was hoarse.
Matthew smiled, “Awake?”
Dolores scratched her hair, and she was awake.
His way of waking people up was somewhat distinctive.
Matthew gave her his coat, “Let's go, I'll show you something.”
Dolores looked at the two children next to her, and both of the children were in deep sleeping. Their
faces flushed, and they slept soundly and sweetly.
“What about them?” Dolores did not want to leave her children.
“We only go to the next door.”
Matthew had made the arrangements.
They even changed the room where they were staying, just in case Dolores had a psychological
shadow in her mind because of the matter of the doll.
He helped Dolores to put on the coat, and Dolores could only get out of bed. Matthew put his arm
around her shoulders, and they went out of the room.
When closing the room door, he glanced at the two children on the bed to confirm that they had no
signs of waking up before he gently closed the door.
In the next room, Boyce did not sleep. He sat on the sofa and drank tea. The coffee table in front of him
had a tea set of teapots and six teacups made up of blue and white porcelain. The water in the teapots
was bubbling and boiling away, and a white mist was curling up from the teapots. The tea aroma
permeated the room.
“Dolores is here,” Boyce put the teacup on the coffee table. He stood up and greeted with a smile.
Dolores smiled, “Still up?”
“How can I fall asleep?” Boyce's eyes became dim, “Someone dares to do such an evil thing right
under my nose. I can't sleep well until I caught the person.”
Dolores instantly knew the intention of calling her to come. Did they had a clue?
Otherwise, they would not have called her over.
“You found out so quickly?” Dolores was surprised.
“Not sure yet, but soon I will found it out,” The people Boyce sent to Lacey's hometown had not
returned yet.
Matthew put his arm around her and sat down. He took the remote control on the coffee table and
turned on the screen hanging on the wall.
The screen displayed a video soon, “Who is Mr. White?”
There was a man in a leather jacket who was icily staring at Lacey on the screen.
Boyce explained to her at the side to avoid her confusion, “Matthew suspects the woman. He has
revealed his suspicion to Charles and asked him to check her out. It is only a cover. Matthew used the
relationship between Charles and Lacey to probe Lacey's living address. Charles straightly went to
Lacey after he left the hotel.”
Boyce sent his man to follow Charles upstairs, and he probed Lacey's living address.
When Charles left, the man who followed Charles took out a small amount of money and knocked on
Lacey's door. He gave her the money and said that it was Charles giving her. The man in the leather
jacket appeared at that time and took the money away from Lacey. The man who followed Charles took
the opportunity to install a monitor on the TV when they argued. NôvelDrama.Org content.
That was what made the video showing the man in the leather jacket questioned Lacey that who was
Mr. White.
Dolores uplifted her eyes and stared at Boyce, “How do you know what's in Matthew's mind?”
She remembered that Matthew held Samuel and left after he finished spoke at that time.
Matthew had no interaction with Boyce at that time.
He only called them out of the room after they had eaten.
“I received a text message from Matthew after he left,” Boyce knew Matthew's intention at that moment.
Matthew left indicated that he turned over the matter to Charles and he would not intervene in this.
However, it was only a cover for Matthew.
Charles did not even know that he had been manipulated until now.
Dolores quietly glanced at Matthew, and she thought that his mind was deep.
She felt scared about his deep mind. How could a man's mind be torturous?
Matthew had manipulated the people, but they would not know about it.
“Is it possible that I still have to count the money for you when you sell me one day?” Dolores thought
that it was possible, and she felt that her IQ was low in front of Matthew.
Matthew cuddled her tightly, “I won't sell you.”
How could he sell her since he loved her so much?
“You no need to care who he is. Take the money and get out!” Lacey was fuming in anger and
trembling.
However, the man in the leather jacket did not discontent with the money he had, and he continued to
pull Lacey, “Lacey, the money is only enough for me to spend for a while, but you know how much I
want.”
“I have no more money,” Lacey yelled at him.
Slap!
A slap caught Lacey's face. The man in the leather jacket held the collar of Lacey's clothes and threw
her to the ground. He sat on her body and squeezed her neck, “You better behave yourself, or I'll
publicize your scandal and make you can't even be a human being.”
“Your father forced me to do it,” Lacey grunted. She did not resist against him, and her hands clenched
tightly on the ground. She knew that he would be more unscrupulous if she fought back.
“Hey, bitch!” The man in the leather jacket let go of her and put the money into his pocket. He looked at
Lacey, who was getting up off the floor, and he warned, “You better behave yourself and get more
money in this period. You suddenly closed the dress shop, and now even the income is gone. I tell you,
Lacey. I don't care whether you are going to sell your body or rob. You have to pay me twenty thousand
yuan every month. I'll flog you to death if one yuan is less!”
The man in the leather jacket talked tough to Lacey and left the room. He closed the door room with a
bang.
Lacey sat on the floor and cried.
Dolores was in agony when she looked at Lacey in the video, “What can the video suggest to you?”
she wondered why Matthew would suspect Lacey.
“It showed that Lacey is not as innocent as you see. Nobody can maintain a pure heart when she is
often being threatened and deprived of in her life. Do you know that Lacey gave money to the person I
sent to give her money, who pretended as Charles's man?”
Dolores asked, puzzled, “Why did she give money to him?”
“She doesn't want Charles to know the existence of the man in the leather jacket. She also doesn't
want him to know that she has a relation with the man.”
She had kept secrets from Charles.
“Are you going to ask me why I suspect her?” Matthew put a strand of her hair up and played it
between his fingers.
Dolores nodded honestly.
Matthew answered her, “I can't be sure of her motive, but she has an ability.”
“What kind of ability?”
Matthew excluded the possibility that Sampson would be the one who did it. Sampson did not dare to
appear in public, and he could not even enter or leave the hotel like other people. How could he check
out the layout of the surveillance in the hotel?
However, Lacey could check out the surveillance layout of the hotel. She would not be suspected even
if she often entered the hotel since she had a good relationship with Charles.
Matthew had confirmed the thought by watching the surveillance video at the hotel manager's side.
Lacey often went to the hotel during the time they left White City.
Her purpose was clear.
Dolores found it incredible, and it was inconceivable that Lacey was the one who did this.
“Why would she do so?” Dolores could not understand.
Boyce narrowed his eyes and cold hummed, “She maybe has a psychological distortion. Anyway, I
think we will be able to find out soon.”
