Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Time passed in a blink of an eye. On the day of the funeral, the weather was cloudy and gloomy.

All men who attended the funeral were in jet black suits. The women who accompanied their husbands were also in black dresses, some of them in black suits as well. The women had very light make-up on.

A lot of people attended the funeral. There were at least 1.5 times more attendees than Victoria’s funeral.

Funeral wreaths were lined up from the hall until the road. Dolores and Matthew stood at the entrance of the hall. They were also wearing black and were wearing a name tag, indicating that they were families of the deceased. They greeted and thanked the people who came to mourn for their loss.

“I’m so sorry for your lost, I’m sure that he has gone to a better place.” Marina and Jeffrey came together. They were about to walk into the hall when Marina noticed that Dolores didn’t look so well. She grabbed her hand and said, “You have to take care of yourself, okay?”

Dolores replied, “I will.”

Dolores didn’t have any makeup on. Her hair was tied up into a simple ponytail and a white flower was tucked behind her left ear. Matthew and she thanked Marina and Jeffrey for coming. Marina sighed slightly and walked into the hall with Jeffrey. The hall was huge, solemn and sombre.

They walked into the hall and stopped in the middle of the hall. They said their prayers to the deceased.

After saying his prayers, Jeffrey looked at the black and white picture in front of the casket, its frame was decorated with black and white flowers. He was overwhelmed. His eyes turned red and he remembered the day when Jayden got married to his sister. He was wearing a black suit, he looked tall, handsome yet restrained standing in the wedding hall. He was standing next to his sister, they looked like they were made for each other. But alas, fate made fools of the people.

In a blink of an eye, they had all aged.

He regretted. He regretted making his sister marry him. He ruined both of their lives. No, three lives. He almost ruined their child’s life as well.

He stared at the picture and whispered in his heart, “Jayden, I’m sorry. You were one step ahead of me. But don’t worry. I will probably meet you soon. When we meet again, I will apologize to you; apologize for everything that I’ve done.”
