Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Chapter 61: Quirk



Chapter 61: Quirk

This bastard!

Samuel glared at Matthew and his eyes almost popped out.

Matthew chuckled, feeling inexplicably pleasant when seeing this little boy being angered.

With a panic look, Dolores dodged his hand, lifted Samuel into the car, and then left the scene.

Samuel looked out of the window and made a face at the annoying Matthew.

Matthew knitted his brows and cursed ‘nasty child’ secretly.

Bryan walked over and watched the leaving car as Matthew did, asking, “Shall we come back?”

Matthew took off his suit jacket, tossed it towards Bryan and then headed towards his car.

Taking the suit jacket, Bryan twitched his mouth. Not daring to make a complaint, he followed Matthew

in strides.

Sitting in the car, Matthew caressed his brows and couldn’t help but chuckle when thinking of the

moment when Dolores appeared.

Bryan, who was driving the car, studied him from the rearview mirror, feeling extremely curious about

their relationship.

Who was that woman?

She did manage to let Matthew laugh like a nympho.

Oh gosh, it’s rare, really rare.

“Mr. Nelson, is that kind of woman your cup of tea?” Bryan was really curious. It was true that that

woman was good-looking, but she had two children who were already five or six years old. Why did his

boss molest her?

Was that because he preferred young married woman?

Young married woman did have unique charm, but how could his boss take fancy to the one who had

given birth to two children?

What if that woman had a husband?

Then would he be a home-wrecker and secretly date that woman?

The more Bryan thought about his, the harder for him to suppress his impulse to laugh out.

He felt excited by merely imagining about that scene.

Matthew slowly opened his eyes and asked in an emotionless tone, “Which kind?”

“Do you prefer women who have given birth…”

Bryan suddenly felt something had gone wrong. He paused right away and smiled obsequiously and

apologetically, “Women who have given birth to a child have their special charms. Judging from her

good-looking child, I can tell that she hasn’t had any cosmetic surgery.”

When hearing the words ‘given birth to a child’, Matthew felt inexplicably fretful. He pulled his collar,

“Will you die if you shut up?”

Bryan soon stopped talking and studied the man who had uncertain moods from the rearview mirror

from time to time.

He had been in a good mood, but suddenly turned gloomy. Oh god, could they have a pleasant

conversation?

Bryan then arranged a hotel for Matthew.

Matthew stayed at there for the whole night, but he lay tossing and turning and kept thinking about that

woman.

He couldn’t fall asleep.

She had really changed. In the past, people would feel that she was a pure and meek woman, but now,

she became confident and the speech and deportment she had when she was talking eloquently about

her profession made her look particularly charming.

Nevertheless… Did she have the other man by her side when she was staying here over the past

years?

When thinking of this, he took out his phone and made a phone call to Abbott, asking him to investigate

Dolores’ living conditions over the past years as well as the people staying by her side.

‘Boss’ phone calls recently have been all about Dolores. Could it be that he has fallen into her? When

has he been caring so much for a woman? He even never cared so much about Helen whose identity

is now Maria Herbert. He has gotten more and more indifferent during the past years, but now he

suddenly becomes passionate; and all these are caused by a woman who has disappeared for a long

time. It’s inconvincible to say that he doesn’t have feeling for her.’ Abbott thought to himself.

Nevertheless, Abbott still couldn’t figure out why Matthew would take fancy to Dolores since although

they had gotten married back then, they didn’t get along with each other for a long time.

He didn’t understand this, yet no one could answer his question.

Just as Matthew had hung up the phone, there came the phone call from Jayden.

Matthew could guess his intentions without even answering the phone call.

With some lights flashing across his eyes, he slowly closed his eyes in an attempt to conceal his

emotions. The gentleness in his eyes when he was thinking about Dolores disappeared and was

replaced by coldness. He then pressed the answer button.

“What’s going on with you and Maria? I heard from her that you wanted to cancel your engagement…”

“Let’s talk about this when I come back.” Matthew looked out of the window gloomily. This was the

reason why he didn’t choose to stay here and asked Abbott to investigate into Dolores instead.

It was because the engagement was not only about his marriage, but also about the business

connections between the Nelson family and the Herbert family.

The news about their engagement had gone virus. Now that he wanted to cancel the engagement, he

had to explain to both his families and the Herberts.

Therefore, he went back to the country on the next day.

Since Abbott had gone to Country A to investigate into Dolores past, it was a driver who came to pick Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Matthew up. Matthew didn’t look tired from the several-hour long journey and asked the driver to head

to the Nelson Mansion directly.

The sceneries flashed past the car windows quickly and the car soon stopped in front of a magnificent

yet low-key mansion which had high and magnificent doors as well as a courtyard. The round arched

windows and the marbles at the corners made it look sumptuous.

After parking the car, the driver walked to the door to backseats and pulled open the door. Then

Matthew stooped and got off the car composedly. He stood in front of the first gate and looked up

expressionlessly before striding steadily towards the house.

Walking past the broad road that was paved with marbles, he walked into the house.

“Young master.” Thomas, the butler of the family, took a step forward and greeted Matthew, and then

continued, “Master is waiting for you inside.”

Matthew nodded slightly to show that he had got it.

The living room was spacious, majestic and stylish with a vintage decoration which had a heavy color

tone, making the whole living room look more solemn. There was a man leaning against the cushion on

the black wood sofa – that was Jayden Nelson, Matthew’s father.

As for the woman sitting beside Jayden, Matthew felt bothered to even glance at her.

He took off his suit jacket, handed it to the servant and then headed towards the sofa and sat beside

Jayden.

“What’s going on with you?” asked Jayden, who was sitting on the sofa straightly. He looked composed

and reserved, and his voice was sonorous and oppressing yet helpless and anxious.

“I will handle it.” Matthew replied briefly without any emotions.

Jayden was quite clear about why Matthew was so indifferent. It was all because of the things

happened to his mother back then…

He seldom went back in usual times and had been acting willfully…

Nevertheless, this society marriage was related to the future development of the Nelson family.

The Nelson family was like ‘a parvenu’ in the City B. Although the scale of its company was quite big, it

somehow lacked some foundations.

But the Herbert family which had been lasting for a century was quite different. Although it didn’t have

outstanding performance in the business field at present, it still had its reputation.

It would be a win-win situation if the two families could be connected by marriage.

“I can let you act willfully when it regards to other matters. But you can by no means cancel this

engagement.” Jayden’s attitude became tough.

Matthew replied in a lukewarm and casual tone, “Only I myself can decide on my marriage.”

“You…” Jayden was rendered speechless due to anger and his chest was heaving up and down.

Victoria Forbis, who was sitting beside him, hastily smoothed his back, “Speak slowly and don’t be

angered.”

“How can I not be angered?” Jayden said with a long face.

“Matthew, just follow your father’s will this time…” Victoria tried to persuade him.

Matthew’s voice became even colder as he sneered, “Who do you think you are to persuade me?”

Victoria’s expressions turned hideous.

“She’s your senior after all. How can you talk to her in this manner?” Jayden slapped on the armrest

and stood to his feet.

Victoria also stood up to support him, “Don’t be angry. I can understand Matthew’s feelings.”

Jayden heaved a sigh and reached out to hold up Victoria’s hands, “It must be hard for you over the

past years.”

Matthew stood up, not wanting to see his father displaying his affections towards this woman.

He took the suit jacket from the servant and turned his back on Jayden, “I will explain to the Herbert

family.

He then strode out of the house after finishing the words.

Jayden pointed at his back, “How… How could he still be so willful? Is he still a child? Doesn’t he know

what is more important?”

Victoria also briefly let out a sigh, “Maybe he doesn’t like the lady of the Herbert family.”

“No.” But Jayden didn’t think so. He added, “He agreed with it before.”

Victoria agreed after a second though. Matthew agreed with the engagement back then, but suddenly

changed his mind when the engagement ceremony was approaching.
