Boyce said, “Not sure about it, perhaps.”

The lift came to a halt at the moment. Both of them walked towards Matthew’s office. Probably because Matthew had informed earlier, the secretary said when she saw both of them coming, “Mr. Nelson is in his office. He said that you can go to find him directly when you come.”

Boyce nodded and said, “Got it.”

Boyce pushed the door when he reached the office. He thought that it was just Matthew, but he did not expect Dolores to be there too. So, he greeted Dolores.

Dolores smiled and nodded, “Please come in.”

Matthew put down the work in his hand and walked over. He let both of them sit down.

Abbott realized that he still had the woman’s bag in his hand, which he had just forgotten to put outside at the doorway. It seemed that he was unable to go out now.

He hid the bag behind his back.

Dolores noticed Abbott’s movement. She saw the bag in his hand and said with a smile, “Does it belong to Ms. Bailey?”

Abbott turned pale instantly. How did Dolores know about Emma?

Dolores addressed her as Ms. Bailey, so she obviously knew her.

“I was on NH Road today and saw you and Ms. Bailey arguing on the roadside. Is there any conflict?”

“No, it is not like that.” Abbott explained hurriedly, “Things aren’t like the way you think. She is the one who pestered me…”

“Why is she pestering you?” Matthew spoke steadily.

Abbott pursed his lips as he found it difficult to explain.

Matthew was slightly impatient as he was exasperated by Abbott’s stammering look. He disliked people who spoke incoherently the most.
