Snare of Love

Chapter 476 Did The Person Who Named Oscar Adams Exist?

Dolores felt that she had to tell them clearly about the matter of their family names being changed.

She had pondered for a while in her heart about how to tell them.

Then, she spoke softly to her children, “Our country had been in this world for five thousand years. It

can be considered as a place with a long history and there was a tradition in our country since ancient

times that the children will get the same surname as their father. I haven’t told you about the fact that

your father and I have changed your surname.”

Simona raised her head and looked at her. She was chewing the food in her mouth slowly. After

swallowing the food, she said, “Is this the thing that you want to tell us?”

Dolores nodded. She seemed that he looked like he had known it so she tried to ask him, “You knew

it?”

It seemed that nobody knew about it, right?

How did he know about it?

Simona used a pair of chopsticks to take some more steamed cake and then put it into her mouth to

chew it, “I don’t know about it but I know that our surname will be changed one day. Before you told us

about it, I have found out that all other people around us use the same surname as their father.

However, my sister and I are special in this. However, we have become the same as other people now

and no one would think that daddy was married into mum’s family.”

Dolores was speechless.

How did he know so much about it? He even knew about a man being married into a woman’s family?

Simona was busy eating and didn’t have time to join the conversation. When she heard her brother’s

words, she blinked curiously and asked, “What does ‘a man being married into a woman’s family’

mean?”

Simona almost did not think about it and answered seriously, “The normal situation for it is that a

woman marries a man. For example, mummy had to marry daddy and this was considered a normal

situation. For matrilocal residence, it means that a man marries a woman. For example, mummy

married to daddy and then daddy will be the matrilocal residence who married into and lived with the

bride’s family.”

Simona was still in a puzzle. What did it mean? Who married who? She shook her head and did not

want to bother about the complicated fact. She just asked, “Does it mean that our surname is not

Flores now anymore?”

“That’s right.” Samuel lifted his chin to indicate to her to ask Dolores about it, “You can ask mummy.”

Dolores stared at her son with a hilarious facial expression. Where did he get all those information?

“Mummy, so we are now using the same surname as daddy’s, right?” There was still food in the little

girl’s mouth so she was speaking in a blurred voice.

Dolores stroked her daughter’s head and spoke seriously, “Yes, your surname is Nelson now and both

of your names have changed slightly. For now, your name is Simona Nelson and your brother’s name

is Samuel Nelson. If you all are going to introduce yourself to others in the future, you have to use this

name, is it okay?”

“But you still call us by our previous names, even you haven’t changed it.” The little girl asked a

reasonable question.

Dolores sighed. Her daughter had really changed. She used to be very ignorant, did not know anything

and just liked to eat delicate food in the past. However, she could even speak well now.

Although she was still a bit blurred for some time, she had become much more talkative than before.

She took a glance at her son. Was the saying ‘people will be affected by the person around them’ true?

Since she always stayed with him, so that was the reason that she had become like him?

“I have used these names to call you guys for five years so I couldn’t just change it for now. However, I

will try my best to get used to your new names as soon as possible.” She spoke to her daughter

solemnly.

The little girl took the glass of milk and took a few sips of it to wash the food in her mouth down to her

stomach, “Then what will you call me from now on? Amanda? Or Amy?” She blinked and commented

thoughtfully,“It seems that both these names are not as nice as the previous name.”

“Eat faster, you will find it nice after hearing more times of it. There are still people who were called by

nicknames, people also get used to the name after hearing more of it.”

The little girl nearly spurted out the milk that was in her mouth. Then, her eyes were opened

incredulously and stared at Dolores, “How can these parents be so irresponsible and give such names

to their children?”

“No one will not love their children. The old people are thinking in old ways and they feel that it will be

easier for them to call their children if their children’s names are simple.” Dolores explained to her This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

daughter patiently as she wanted to let her daughter know that none of the parents in this world didn't

love their children and the only difference was of it would be the way of them expressing their love.

After having breakfast, Dolores brought her two children to leave there. Since they didn’t have any

luggage, they did not need to pack anything. When she came there, she only took a jacket and put it on

casually. Since she had to bring the two children with her, she also took a handbag with money and

credit cards inside it because no matter where they went they could not go without money. The last

thing she brought was the document that Jolene left for her.

She brought her two children to go down by the lift and they went to the counter to check out the room.

The receptionist couldn’t help and praised them when seeing her two children, “Your children are so

beautiful.”

Dolores took the refunded deposit and smiled at the receptionist. She held her children’s hand and they

walked out of the hotel. They stood by the roadside and wanted to take a cab. The good thing was that

location was not that crowded at the time and many cabs were coming here and going there. They

didn’t wait for a long time and got into a cab successfully without having any problems.

“Where do you want to go?” The driver took a glimpse back at them.

Dolores let her children sit down and then only she answered the driver, “JK Group.”

The driver started the car and drove…

Maybe it was because that they were heading to a strange city, the two kids struggled to lie on the

window and looked out of it. Dolores gently pulled her son, “Samuel, give some space to your sister.”

“Didn’t you just say that you have changed our names? Why are you still calling me Samuel?” Samuel

sat down in the inner position and let his sister sit in the window seat.

Dolores pressed her forehead lightly. She really forgot it. It was really difficult to change one’s habit,

“Alright, I will remember to call you Andrew next time.”

“I think you can just call me Andy, it sounds more intimate.” It was rare to see him seeking her attention

in front of her.

Dolores held her son’s head and kissed his forehead, “Okay, I’ll take your suggestion and call you

Andy.”

The cab driver who was driving took a glance at them with the rear-view mirror, “This is the first time for

you all to come here, right?”

Dolores said, “Yes.”

“You are very lucky, your two children are so beautiful. Your son doesn’t look very alike as you so he

should look like his father, right?”

Samuel was growing up and looked more and more similar to Matthew. Sometimes, the way he

frowned looked exactly the same as Matthew. She reached out her hand and stroked her son’s face

lightly. She seemed to see another person’s face when looking at her son’s face.

There was a faint melancholy raised from the bottom of her heart.

“Here it is.”

Just as Dolores was thinking other things, the driver stopped the cab in front of a magnificent conjoined

building and spoke to her, “You all have reached the JK Group.”

Dolores got her mind back and took money from her purse and gave it to the cab driver. Then, she

opened the car door and brought her two children to get out of the cab.

When they stood on the roadside, they could clearly see the building. It was said to be a conjoined

building because there was a glass bridge in the middle of the two buildings and it connected them.

It seemed like there was a big billboard located in the air and it was placed between the roofs of the

two buildings with the few words JK Group written on it magnificently.

She took a deep breath and held her two children’s hands to walk into the building. The two kids were

looking here and there. They were observing there subconsciously because it was an unfamiliar place

for them.

After they walked past the lobby, Dolores held her children’s hands and walked towards the counter,

the receptionist greeted them enthusiastically, “May I have your name?”

“I’m looking for a man who named Oscar Adams.”

The receptionist was stunned for a moment as she didn’t expect that she would call Oscar Adams by

his name. She took another glance at Dolores instinctively and asked, “Do you have an appointment?”

Dolores shook her head, “No.”

“Oh, then I’m sorry that I can’t let you in.” The receptionist smiled at her systematically.

“May I ask you a question? Is a person who named Oscar Adams staying here?” Dolores asked again.

She really wanted to find out whether the person with name Oscar Adams existed.
