Snare of Love novel Chapter 447

Eddie held a higher official title. However, Jeffery was the one who wielded the actual power. He had armies.

“Give me a second to think about it again.” Matthew hadn’t come up with a way to completely put this matter to rest.

After all, this problem was provoked by Jeffery, and Eddie was the one who solved it. Even if Jeffery refused to let go, this situation could not be resolved entirely.

He didn’t want to dangle the issue for too long. He wouldn’t take action if he couldn’t get it done in one shot.

Boyce pondered for a moment, “I think it’ll be easy to overcome Eddie because we have the goods on him. But for Jeffery…” Boyce paused for a moment before continuing, “After all, Dolores had given birth to two children for you. She is pregnant right now, but she gets involved in the murder case—Actually, don’t need to worry too much.

Actually, he wanted to say that he didn’t need to be merciful to Jeffery.

Jeffery was not, after all, his biological uncle.

Jolene was not his biological mother either.

Matthew kept his gaze fixed forward, with no change in his expression, as if he didn’t hear what Boyce had said.

He did, in fact, hear it, but he didn’t show it on his face. It was not for the old times’ sake. He had made it clear when Jeffery went to the company to look for him the last time.

However, the evidence that they had was of Eddie’s, but not Jeffery’s. Even if Jeffery refused to let go, the situation could not be resolved.

Unless the matter of Eddie prompting a murder had something to do with Jeffery.

He narrowed his eyes… As if he was contemplating something.

Boyce was well aware that in this case, it was easy to say but challenging to do.

After all, Matthew was a human being, of flesh and blood, with thoughts and feelings. He might have to wrestle with it since he had to fight against the person he referred to as his uncle in the past.

Furthermore, Matthew had no idea that Jeffery was not his biological uncle. He must have a lot of struggles in his heart.

Boyce had this thought in his heart.

His and Matthew’s thoughts were not the same.

“You go meet Landon,” Matthew suddenly said.

Boyce’s eyes widened, “Have you thought of a solution?”

“Don’t divulge the real cause of Maria’s death. Sound out if Sampson’s death was a deal between him and Eddie or Jeffery.”

He had a countermeasure in his mind. He wanted to determine Landon’s role in Sampson’s death, regardless of who was directly related to his death.

But he guessed that Landon didn’t realize that he was just a pawn in Eddie’s game.

After all, no one was capable of harming his own children unless he had no humanity or the benefits offered by Eddie were insurmountable. However, the Herbert family was in business, Eddie might not be of much help either.

And how huge the benefit had to be for Landon to sacrifice two lives?

There might be many things in this case that even Jeffery was unaware of.

“Okay. Just drop me here,” Boyce said.

Matthew parked the car at the roadside, “Call me if you have any news.”

Boyce pushed the car door open, got out from the car, and said alright as he closed the car door, “You may go. I’ll take a cab.”

Matthew drove the car away after a brief glance at him.

He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already late in the afternoon. He didn’t plan to go to the company, so he drove back to the villa right away.

Sean sat on the fence by the flowerbed near the gate. He stood up when he saw the coming car. Matthew stopped the car.

“Why are you here?” He got out of the car.

Sean said, “I have something to give you.”

Dolores missed her two kids, so she asked Victoria to bring them here today.

Victoria realized that Dolores might be pregnant during the few days when Coral sent the meal. So, the dishes that Coral cooked were all good for a pregnant woman. Victoria specifically asked Dolores when she came today.

Dolores didn’t hide it from her.

After all, she was not an outsider. She was the biological grandmother of the children.

After dropping them off, the driver left. So, Matthew didn’t see the car there and didn’t notice the presence of the two children until he entered the house. One of them was lying on her stomach on the sofa in the living room, looking at something, while the other one was staring intently at the piano placed in front of the French window.

Matthew walked over. His daughter, Simona, was the one who was lying on the sofa. She was reading Tang poetry, and she was so focused that she didn’t even notice the person standing behind her.

Matthew unbuttoned his suit, took it off, and put it on the back of the sofa. He bent over to Simona’s back and looked at the book in her hands. At this moment, Simona just realized that there was someone behind her. She saw the face which was close to her when she turned around. She hugged Matthew with a smile and kissed him. Her drool was still hanging. She called Matthew sweetly, “Daddy.”

She seemed a little embarrassed and reached out her hands to wipe his face.

Matthew looked a bit interested and looked at the book Simona had placed on the sofa, “You start to learn the classical Chinese poem?”

Simona was very excited, “Yes. I’m going to primary school soon. Of course, I have to learn to read Tang poetry.”

“Oh, is it? How many poems have you learned?”

Simona was overjoyed and showed off, “I can recite this poem.”

Matthew glanced at the poem, “Goose”, that Simona had pointed out with her finger. The corner of his eyes twitched slightly.

He stroked Simona’s hair and picked her up to sit on his legs. He lavished praise on Simona, “My daughter is so amazing. You can even recite such a difficult poem.”

“It’s hard, isn’t it? I said it’s difficult, but my brother said I’m stupid. I think he is the stupid one.” Simona could finally find someone who agreed with her.

Simona acted like a spoiled child in Matthew’s arms, “Daddy, you have to tell brother not to always bully me in the future.”

Samuel was speechless.
