Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Chapter 13: She Knew the Language of A Country

Dolores froze on the spot. Sampson had never hugged her before, and it was a total surprise to her. Once she got over her shock, she tried to wriggle out of his embrace.

From Matthew’s perspective, they looked like a couple who were cuddling each other. His brows knitted together as he frowned.

Helen commented nonchalantly. “I would never have expected she had a boyfriend.”

Matthew suddenly felt very restless. He stomped on the pedal and the car sped away.

Helen pursed her lips. “Are you angry about that woman and her boyfriend?”

Matthew snickered coldly. “Why should I be angry?”

She had been pregnant, so it was obvious she was intimate with another man.

He was only getting flustered for no reason at all after seeing her with other guys.

Soon, the car stopped in front of Helen’s residence. She didn’t get out of the car immediately as she stared longingly at Matthew. “Don’t you want to come in for a while?”

Worried he would say no, she added. “Matthew, I have everything to make your favorite food—”

“Helen,” Matthew interrupted her.

His frustration confused him at the moment.

He caressed her hair and smiled softly. “I will not come in today. Please, get some rest.”

“But…” Helen didn’t finish her sentence and instead obediently climbed out of the car.

“Please drive safely.”

Matthew mumbled a response before speeding away.

He hadn’t realized how fast he was driving until he got home far faster than he expected. He got out of his car and wasn’t surprised Dolores wasn’t home yet.
