Chapter 635 I Didn’t Like Men

Boyce was reliable. Matthew wasn’t worried about him at all, “Call me if you need anything.”

Boyce replied, “Sure. Talk to you later.”

Then, Boyce stood up. At the same time, Boyce’s mobile phone rang in his pocket. He took out the
phone and saw the call was from Officer Miller’s office. Boyce didn’t pick up right away. Instead, he
looked at Matthew, “It’s Officer Miller. He might need me for something. I’ve got to go.”

Matthew nodded.

Armand stared at Boyce, who left, and then he looked at Matthew, “It’s done?”

Armand didn’t seem to understand what was going on yet.

However, nobody replied to him. Matthew headed to his desk and glanced at Armand, “Aren’t you
leaving?”

Armand wanted to stay here and do nothing?

“My sweetheart is at your house. Where should I go? Your house?” Armand approached the desk and
stared at Matthew, “Tell me the truth.”

Matthew flipped open the document Abbot put on his desk. He asked without raising his head, “What
truth?”

“How did you get Dolores to forgive you?” Armand blinked his eyes. He had done everything he can for
Theresa, but she didn’t seem to be forgiving him any time soon.

Not even a single sign of forgiveness.

All Armand wanted was to get his wife back. Why was it so difficult?



It was more difficult than going to space.

Matthew was distracted from the documents in front of him. He raised his head and looked at Armand,
“Show her your charisma.”

Armand was speechless.

What was his charisma?

Armand approached Matthew with a thick face, “Teach me how.”

“You’re stupid,” Matthew insulted Armand without hesitation.

Armand went speechless again.

Armand stood up straight and chuckled, “Don’t think I didn’t know that you didn’t get Dolores to forgive
you after several attempts of trying.”

Matthew glared at Armand coldly, “Then why do you bother to ask me?”

Armand choked on his words. After a long pause, Armand laughed and said, “I was panic. Help me,
please? At least give me an idea.”

Matthew said, “I’ve no time.”

Matthew made Armand speechless again.

“I’ll go to Dolores if you don’t help me. I’ll ask her to help me out,” Then, Armand headed to the
entrance.

Armand didn’t really want to bother Dolores. He knew Matthew too well. He said that just to trigger
Matthew.



Matthew loved Dolores too much.

He wouldn’t allow Armand to bother Dolores.

Armand purposely slowed down the speed he turned the doorknob.

“Wait up!”

Matthew stopped Armand before he stepped out of the room.

Armand put up a straight face. He turned around and asked, “What?”

Matthew pressed on his temple. He didn’t really have any courting experience. As for Dolores, he
forced her at first, then slowly accepted her. It was a process.

Just like the need for time in any relationship. There wasn’t anything like love-at-first-sight. Instead,
people saw the good or bad in another person, then slowly got attracted.

Matthew knew exactly what Armand was thinking.

But he didn’t call him out. Armand was going to hang out with him as long as he didn’t get Theresa
back.

It was not a good thing. It wasn’t good either for Theresa to keep Armand waiting.

“Tell me, what do you want me to do?”

Armand laughed and walked closer. He leaned on Matthew’s desk and got really close to Matthew.

Matthew backed off, “Stay away from me.”

What was the need of getting so close to him?



Armand frowned and thought, “Who wants to get close to you? I didn’t like men.”

“Get Dolores to get Theresa out of the house. It’s too crowded. I can’t even tell Theresa what I wanted
to tell her. I want to see her outside,” said Armand.

Matthew stared at him. He didn’t promise Armand right away as he was thinking if it could work and if it
could get Dolores involved.

Theresa might blame Dolores if Armand did anything overaggressive.

That wasn’t what Matthew wanted to see.

“Let me make a call.”

Armand quickly stopped Matthew before he dialled numbers, “Would Theresa come out if you tell them
now?”

“You’re wimpy,” Matthew shook off Armand’s hand, “How would I get them out if I don’t call them?”

Armand didn’t say anything. He lowered his hand.

Matthew gave Dolores a call.

But Matthew told Armand earlier that if Dolores didn’t want to do so, he wouldn’t force her.

It was important not to offend Dolores.

Armand curled his lips and thought, “Gals before Pals.”

Armand only dared to secretly think about it. He didn’t dare to say it out loud.

Armand was afraid that Matthew wouldn’t help him.



Dolores was discussing the design of an order with Theresa. It was a Chinese wedding gown. They
were asked to use the mandarin ducks as a theme of the gown.

The symbol of mandarin ducks was great, but they needed to put on their thinking hats and see how to
put it in the gown. The mandarin ducks must blend into the design of the gown, and also brought out
the symbolism of it in the design.

Theresa was thinking of a two-piece gown with a coat.

Dolores was searching for pictures of mandarin ducks, and deciding which of them suited to be
embroidered onto the gown.

Dolores’s phone was put aside, and it rang. Dolores picked up without looking at the caller ID, “Hello.”

“Is it convenient for you to talk now?”

It was Matthew. He went out not long ago. Why was he calling now? Dolores looked at the screen of
her phone and confirmed it was Matthew’s number. She put the phone up to her ear, “Yes.”

Theresa was near to Dolores. She could hear Matthew’s voice from the phone. She leaned over to
another side of Dolores’ ear and whispered, “Matthew wanted to have a private conversation?”

Dolores pushed Theresa away lightly.

Theresa wanted to make fun of Dolores. She put her arms around Dolores’ shoulder and tried to listen
to what Matthew said to Dolores. But of course, Theresa wouldn’t listen to what she wasn’t supposed
to. Theresa was teasing Dolores at first, but then she heard Matthew said, “Armand’s with me.”

Dolores heard Armand’s name. She didn’t try to hide it away from Theresa. Dolores asked, “What did
he want?”



“He wanted to see Theresa.”

Dolores looked at Theresa and asked over the phone, “So?”

“He needs your help to get Theresa out of the house. Do you think it is feasible?”

Matthew respected Dolores’ opinion.

After all, they were a couple. Matthew can’t lie to Dolores and tricked her into getting Theresa out of the
house.

Dolores couldn’t decide for Theresa either. She turned and looked at Theresa, then asked for her
opinion.

Theresa nodded.

Dolores then replied, “It is.”

“Then, shall we have lunch together?” Matthew asked.

“Sure. You decide where to eat then,” said Dolores.

Dolores hung up the phone after Matthew agreed with her suggestion. Dolores stared at Theresa,
“What were you thinking?”

Theresa paused for a while and said, “I wanted to make things clear.”

“Are you sure?” Dolores was uncertain.

Dolores felt like Theresa and Armand still had feelings for each other.



“His grandmother wanted a grandchild so much, and I’m infertile. You see, he likes children too. We’ll
get into endless fights for not having children even if we stayed together now. Might as well end it as
soon as possible,” Theresa sounded determined.

“Can’t you see it? Armand loves you dearly, or else he wouldn’t keep coming back for you. You kept
giving him a cold shoulder, but he never gives up. He is determined. Why not tell him the truth and see
how he would react to it? Then only decide what to do based on his reaction.”

Theresa shook her head, “I can’t. I don’t like myself for being like this, and I can’t accept a flawed
marriage.”

No matter what people said, Theresa felt like marriage wouldn’t be complete if a couple couldn’t have
children of their own.

The proverb has it that a child is a pledge of the love of a couple.

What did they have?

They had nothing.

“So you planned to stay single?” Dolores was worried for Theresa.

Theresa shook her head, “I won’t be,” Theresa smiled at Dolores, “Didn’t Oscar say that he’s coming?”

Dolores nodded, “Yes, his flight is at ten o’clock.”

Wait, what did this have to do with Oscar?
