Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Joan was well respected by the leaders of the society. Although he had a title of nobility, his credibility and abilities were well accepted. He was very detailed in his personal and business affairs.

Everyone in his age would have several girlfriends but he did not.

Once, there were some rumours that Nina was his illegitimate child. Thereafter, someone who knew the truth about his adoption spoke up and the rumours went away.

In fact, most of them knew that the rumors were fabricated but they just wanted this squeaky clean man to be tainted.

He had always been alone and now he brought a woman to such a grand event, naturally, this drew much attention. Some came forward to greet Joan just to find out who Amanda was.

“Tonight’s event is so important, don’t you think that it’s inappropriate for you to bring a foreigner?” A man said but he kept looking towards Amanda.

Joan was calm as usual and unfazed, “Isn’t this a family banquet?”

A Royal family dinner was still a family dinner and not a State event. So, he could bring anyone he wished.

The man chuckled, “Everyone thought that you had no interests in women. Perhaps you only liked foreigners.”

Amanda did not understand what he was saying but from the man’s expression, she knew that what he said was not polite. She could even sense Joan tensed up. She quickly smiled beautifully and said tenderly to Joan, “I’m thirsty, shall we head over there?”

Joan acknowledged and excused himself to the man and brought her towards a table nearby. The table was elaborately decorated with fresh flowers and had an extensive spread of pastries, wine, and drinks. The entire dining hall was beautifully decorated.
