Snare Of Love

Chapter 7: Painless Abortion​

“What’s going on?!” Jessica questioned. She had apparently figured out something in a moment, “Wasn’t that money compensated by the perpetrator?”

She was injured in a car accident and a lot of money had been spent on her son’s burial expenses. Before Dolores came back, Dolores also gave her a little money, saying that it was the amount left after the money compensated by the perpetrator was used.

Dolores was not sure about what to say as it was really too hard for her to find the right word.

Dolores’s behaviour of being silent was clearly a tacit acknowledgement. Being a young woman, it was impossible for her to legally raise that amount of money. Jessica’s heart was shattered and she felt incredulous too, “You, don’t tell me you prostitute yourself…”

She grabbed Dolores’s wrist, “You can’t give birth to this baby, go to the hospital now with me!”

“Why?” Dolores tried to withdraw her hand from Jessica’s hand.

“If you give birth to the baby, your life will be ruined!” Jessica could not let Dolores give birth to this baby as she was already married. If anyone knew, her life would be devastated.

“Mom, please, let me give birth to the baby,” Dolores cried and begged.

No matter how hard Dolores begged, Jessica did not agree and was determined.

Jessica brought Dolores to the hospital that day.

If Dolores refused to go, Jessica threatened her that she would kill herself.

So, Dolores had no choice but to go with her mother. Abortion required a patient to do many check-ups. When Jessica went to get the test results, Dolores was sitting alone on a bench in the corridor with her hands covering her stomach.

Her tears streamed down uncontrollably.

She was overcome by extreme melancholy and helplessness.

“Matthew, I’m fine, don’t be so nervous, it’s just a tiny scald.” Helen smiled lightly. She was wearing a black tight skirt that wrapped her voluptuous body well with a suit jacket on her shoulders. Whereas, Matthew wore a white shirt with the cuffs rolled up, revealing his strong arms while he was holding Helen’s arm.

He looked worried, “It’s a scald. It will leave a scar if it’s not treated well.”

Helen’s body leaned onto Matthew’s chest, “If it leaves a scar, will you detest me?”

“What nonsense!”

Helen giggled, knowing that Matthew was not a superficial person.

This voice…

Dolores slowly raised her head and saw Helen leaning on Matthew and slowly approaching her from the corridor together.

They looked just like a match made in heaven.

This made her felt that she was like a clown as she had lost her virginity at a young age and even had a baby in her belly and even the identity of its father was unknown.

As she watched until losing her presence of mind, she suddenly felt a gaze that was full of amazement.

“Next patient please.” The door of the operating room opened and a nurse stood in the doorway, followed by a young woman who came out with her abdomen covered with hands while mumbling, “It’s a painless abortion, why’s it still so fucking painful?”

Matthew’s eyebrows were thickly furrowed and his gazes were fixed on Dolores’s face. Just now, she showed in front of him that she cared about the baby in her belly so much but now she came to do a painless abortion?

He sneered in his mind!

Helen followed the direction of Matthew’s gazes and looked over…

The moment she saw Dolores, she felt a hint of familiarity but she could not remember where she had seen her before. Helen looked at Matthew, “Do you know her?”

“No.” Matthew coldly curled his lips.

Matthew had set a lot of labels for Dolores. For him, her private life was messy as she was knocked up at such a young age. She showed her motherly love in front of him but she ended up going to do an abortion now.

Such a scheming woman!

“Have you thought it through?” The nurse confirmed with Dolores again and again.

Dolores did not want her predicament to being seen by others. Although she was actually reluctant, heartbroken and helpless, she nodded, “I’ve thought it through.”

“Then come in with me.”

Dolores lowered her head, not looking at anyone and followed the nurse into the operating room. The operating room was closed and the situation outside was completely isolated.

Helen was slightly uneasy as she felt that Matthew was angry. She reached out and held his arm, speaking gently, “Matthew.”

Matthew’s face was cold, “Let’s go.”

Helen’s hand which was holding his arm tightened a bit. She looked back at the operating room with a closed door and then looked at Matthew’s reaction. It seemed like he obviously knew the woman but she had been with him for so long and there had never been a woman by his side.

She was very clear about this. But then, who was the woman just now?

Why was he so angry?

“Matthew, the woman just now…”

Matthew hugged her and refused to talk about this topic, “It’s not important, just forget it.”

Helen could only keep her mouth shut. Despite being curious, she did not ask anymore.

In the operating room, when Dolores saw those instruments, she flinched. No, she could not give up this child, she could not!

“Lie down,” the doctor instructed.

“I decide not to do it.” Dolores shook her head, turned around and ran.

She ran so fast and was too panicked that she did not pay attention to the way in front of her. She accidentally collided with an oncoming man who was followed by some people.

She covered her forehead and apologized repeatedly, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

“Dolores?” Sampson felt that it was her but he was not really certain about it, so he tried to ask.
