Chapter 479 It Was Not Worth The Candle

Dolores found a quiet place after her own heart with the help of Oscar and got settled in City C.

After settling down, she called Mrs. William and told her that she wanted to close up the clothing store
in City B and stop the business.

Many things had happened to Dolores since she backed to City B for so long. She had no time to
manage the clothing store.

The business at the clothing store was poor as well. Plus, she was not in City B, so she did not want to
continue the business.

Mrs. William had heard Allison said what happened to Dolores, so she understood Dolores's situation
and agreed to her request.

She also had no alternative but to stop the business back then.

Mrs. William asked Dolores if she would go back and continue working as a fashion designer at LEO
Corporation.

Dolores said she was not going back to work at LEO Corporation.

She was busy lately because what she wanted to do was not simple, so she could not continue to work
as a fashion designer at LEO Corporation anymore.

She could only disappoint Mrs. William, who was appreciating her ability.

She developed into a professional and well-known fashion designer because of Mrs. William's talent
cultivation.



Although Dolores looked for Oscar, she used her own money for expenses instead of those left by
Jolene. She even bought the current accommodation at her own expense. She had a lot of savings
earlier which was originally for the two children, but Dolores would use it for something else.

However, she was willing and wanted to do something for the Harris family. People would not imagine
nonsense when they were busy doing something, and times passed quickly as well.

In the blink of an eye, Dolores had been in City C for a month. Samuel and Simona got used to living in
City C.

Dolores signed up for Samuel and Simone to take a preschool class to let them quickly adapt to the
future of elementary school life and learning state.

Theresa had come back in this month. She had a big difference in her appearance, but she seemed to
be pretty well.

Theresa did not ask about Armand as if she never met Armand in her life.

Dolores did not know whether Theresa put the past behind or still a knot in her heart. Theresa did not
ask about Armand, and Dolores also did not mention him in front of her.

There was no time for busy people to immerse in love.

“Embroidery is not an easy work,” Theresa looked at the embroiderer who was sewing a phoenix on
the Gambiered Canton Gauze, stitch by stitch.

She slightly frowned and thought, “When will this phoenix be embroidered? The embroiderer has been
sewing the phoenix for half a month, and the phoenix embroidery has been only half done. There are
still many things to be done.”

Theresa thought that it would take at least half a year for done a dress by hand embroidery.



“The gauze is too thin and can't be embroidered by the machine. The embroidery is not as lifelike as
hand embroidery,” Dolores was in a light green dress, revealing her white, thin arms since it was
summer and hot weather.

She opened an embroidery store this month, and it was not only her ultimate goal. She wanted to bring
the Gambiered Canton Gauze to light in some particular ways and stepped into the prosperity like it
used to be.

Theresa knew Dolores's intention, but she was just a little anxious, “There are twelve pieces that need
a lot of embroideries now. It was a huge undertaking. I'm afraid that it will take two years to finish it with
only these few embroiderers.”

Dolores raised her eyes to look at her and said with a smile, “Don't be anxious. We will have more
embroiderers to work here soon after.”

Dolores had asked Oscar to look for good embroiderers all over the country because she knew that it
was not easy to find a good embroiderer. What a coincidence! Dolores received a call from Oscar this
morning, saying that he found nine embroiderers with excellent craftsmanship.

The embroiderers would arrive at the store in the next few days.

A month is neither a long nor a short period, and many things would happen in this period, such as
Dolores had settled down in City C and was working on what she wanted to do steadily and
continuously.

Many things had happened in City B these times, and one of them was about Eddie's matter. After the
investigation, the evidence was overwhelming that Eddie had issued a female prisoner to kill Maria
back then.



The case was heard in private. Eddie was released from his post. He was about to retire in the next few
years, and he could gain both fame and wealth. However, he made a fool of himself and had paid for
his foolish behavior in the end. It was not worth the candle.

There was considerable progress in the car accident in which Boyce caught the participant who
escaped home.

The participant was cooped up in an abandoned factory in the suburbs.

Boyce tied the man to the beam. He should be called a boy rather than a man. He looked like an
underage boy who was short and thin with yellow hair. The little boy was looking at Boyce with his eyes
full of panic, “Who, who are you people? Why did you guys catch me?”

Boyce did not like to talk nonsense with such people and showed him a photo of a man who kidnapped
Dolores and was hit by a car and died.

The man in the photo was the cousin of the boy.

“You know the man in the photo, right?” Boyce said indifferently.

“I must know all about you if I caught you. You've followed your cousin to be a street gangster since
you were fifteen years old. Although you don't have felony records, you got a lot of misdemeanor
records. You better tell me the truth honestly. Otherwise, you'll be suffering from the flesh, and then go
to jail.”

The little boy grew up in the mountains. He did not finish elementary school and followed his cousin to
be a street gangster. None of the factories want to hire such a young child laborer like him. So he
followed his cousin to be a street gangster for a long time. There were a dozen people following him to
live and earn money by helping people to do things.



“You know how your cousin died, right? What I want to know is who directed you people to kidnap
Dolores that day,” Boyce asked again.

“Will you let me go after I tell you all I know?” the little boy did not experience the things of violent
storms and waves, and he could not resist such pressure. So he consciously confessed without Boyce
got physical with him.

Boyce did not want to listen immediately, “Wait for a moment. Leave it later.”

Boyce made a call to Matthew, and Matthew should arrive shortly. He wanted Matthew to listen to what
the little boy said himself, so he would not have to convey the information to
Matthew.
