Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Chapter 51: Find out the Clue

The scream came from the woman, who slipped on her sweat and almost toppled from the roof. It was a split second between life and death. The mother-in-law of the woman was crying hysterically and nearly fainted at the sight of her daughter-in-law careening on the edge.

Dolores’ mind was blank, and her entire body tensed until the woman regained her balance.

After a moment, Dolores called up to the woman. “If you come down from there, I’ll refund you the money you paid for your house.”

The woman didn’t believe Dolores one bit. “Don’t you dare say that just to get me down? I don’t believe you!”

“I’m not lying to you. I will give you the money. If you won’t do it for yourself, think of the child inside your belly.” Dolores continued, trying to convince her.

The woman seemed to be at her wits’ end, which explained her desperation. “That’s exactly what I’m doing. I’m standing here for the sake of my child. Do you think it was easy for us to buy a house? We scraped all of our savings together in an attempt to have a safe place for my child to live, but can I let my child live in a place that has collapsed? What are the chances that the house we could be buried alive under the house?”

Dolores knew what the woman was concerned about, how worried and terrified she must be. Dolore knew because she experienced it herself. “I understand how you feel. You only want to give your child a good home. I appreciate your concerns. As long as you come down, I promise that I’ll give you the money.”

“Why should I believe you? What will I do come down and you don’t give me the money?” the woman asked, refusing to give up.

Dolores licked her dry lips. “I’m not lying to you. I’m Randolph Flores’ daughter. I won’t lie to you.”

“She’s that unscrupulous business executive’s daughter?”

“You must pay your father’s debt! Refund my money!”

“Give us back our money!”

The crowd surrounded Dolores immediately.
