Of the Hannah Baker stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is Snare of Love. The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 451 Obsession that Rooted and Sprouted. Let's read the author's Snare of Love Hannah Baker story right here.
Matthew, who had been silent all the time finally chimed in.
Jeffery turned to ask him, “What do you mean?”
With an expressionless look, Matthew said indifferently, “I just wanna know.”
“By the way, I’m afraid I need to go to the Chambers family again today. It was me who suggested Chloe marry you. I haven’t told Eddie about this decision yet. I’m afraid he would be quite unhappy.”
Eddie helped him and was willing to let her daughter marry Matthew, but Jeffery didn’t think he had kept his promise to Eddie. He felt quite ashamed.
“Do you mean it was Eddie Chambers who came up with this idea?” Although Matthew was asking, he had already got an answer inwardly.
“Yes, it was. I want to separate you and Dolores Flores eagerly. He came up with this idea and told me. Eddie said Sampson Herbert went into jail because of Dolores Flores, so the Herbert family hated her. They’re willing to help me,” said Jeffery honestly.
Upon hearing the answer, Matthew didn’t feel surprised at all. “I guess he hadn’t told you a lot of things yet.”
“What kind of things?” Jeffery raised his tone a bit.
He trusted Eddie very much. Suddenly, he was told that Eddie had been hiding something from him, so he couldn’t help raising his voice.
“A few days ago, some people wanted to take Dolores away determinedly. They took a lot of people and broke into the hospital...”
“For real?” Soon, Jeffery understood. “Did you mean it was Eddie?”
“He didn’t do it himself. He used the Herbert family. Their daughter died in jail, and Eddie manipulated it. I’ve looked into the matter already. Without any evidence, I wouldn’t tell you.” Matthew just wanted Jeffery to know that Eddie offered his daughter, not because of Jeffery. Probably Eddie had his own purposes.
Matthew couldn’t figure out Eddie’s purposes, as according to his relationship with Jeffery, he didn’t need to maintain it through his daughter’s marriage for convenience.
Why would Eddie be so eager to let his daughter marry him?
What did he want?
What was his purpose?
Eddied tried his best effort to achieve this goal, even spending more effort than Jeffery did.
“Probably because I was sick and he was afraid that I might go back on my word, so he had done it behind my back.” Jeffery was also confused, wondering why Eddie would have to do so.
Since they were so close, Eddie should have discussed it with him before taking the action.
“You can test him whether he had hidden it from you on purpose.” Matthew picked up the file from the desk, but he didn’t pull out the documents to read.
Matthew knew Jeffery more or less -- since Jeffery had decided to let go of Dolores, he wouldn’t do anything to her in the future.
Matthew stood up. “I don’t like Eddie Chambers very much.”
He couldn’t figure out this man’s purpose, so he would be a disaster in the future.
Jeffery frowned. “What do you mean?”
“I’ve gotta go now.” Matthew had reminded Jeffery, so he didn’t want to continue the conversation.
He stepped down the stairs, walked out of the pavilion, and bypassed the spring. Under the hibiscus trees, Jeffrey watched his receding figure.
He heaved a sigh. Finally, they were still distant from each other.
He was afraid that Matthew and he couldn’t go back to where they used to be.
“I also want to let go, but I can’t.”
If he needed to pull out the rooted and sprouted obsession, he must die first.
Jeffrey left Hibiscus Garden, heading to the Chambers’ directly.
Chloe felt so bored at home. She couldn’t bear staying home all the time.
“Dad, I’m leading a life of a jailbird now! When can I go out?” Chloe complained.
Right then, there were knocks on the door. Mrs. Chambers went to answer it.
Chloe continued, “I can’t bear it! I must go out! If this goes on, I’ll go nuts!”
Eddie was instantly confused, wondering why Jeffery would have known it.
When Mrs. Chambers sent the tea over, before knocking on the door, she heard Jeffery’s words. She stopped.
She started eavesdropping at the door.
Chloe wanted to eavesdrop if Eddie was talking about her marriage with Matthew with Jeffery, so she walked downstairs. Seeing that her mother was eavesdropping, she asked with a frown, “Mom, what are you doing?”
“Shush!
“Come over,” Mrs. Chambers whispered to her daughter.
Chloe came over. “What are they talking about now?”
Mrs. Chambers let her eavesdrop.
Chloe was quite curious, following her mother to lean against the crack.
“Who told you those things?” Eddie tried his best to be calm.
However, his brain worked fast, wondering how he could deceive Jeffery.
“How can I question you without any firm evidence. If you are eager to let Chloe marry Matthew, you can tell me directly. Don’t you know how close we are? How can I ignore your request? I gave you a suggestion but I didn’t keep my words. I should apologize to you. But isn’t it so improper to do those things behind my back?”
Eddie was in a panic. “Do you have the evidence?”
That was quite fatal.
“We are pals for so many years. Tell me honestly -- you spent so much effort and time. Why do you want Chloe to marry Matthew so much?”
Eddie was silent.
Suddenly, the door of the study was pushed open. Standing at the door, Mrs. Chambers said, “I know why he spent so much effort to let Chloe marry Matthew Nelson.”
Everyone gazed at her, including Chloe, who was completely shocked.
