Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 1048

But Stanford’s expression did not change significantly. It looked as if he could not recognize the two women not far away from him.

“Grandma, didn’t I ask you to wait for me? Why did you come this way?” Amanda was upset and worried that Jessica strayed off without telling her.

Jessica grabbed her hand and said, “I saw Stanford. Was he here to receive us? I called out to him but he did not hear and walked off.”

When Jessica said this, Amanda raised her head and saw Stanford. She suddenly seemed unnatural and perturbed.

‘Why was he here?’

She sized Stanford and Atwood up. They did not appear to have returned from a business trip as they did not have any luggage with them.

“Grandma, you are mistaken.” Amanda led her away.

Jessica shook her head, “I did not, isn’t he Stanford? I’m not senile yet!”

“He’s not.” Amanda tried to avoid the matter and now Jessica began to falter, “Did I see wrongly?”

Amanda definitively said to Jessica, “Yes, you’ve made a mistake.”

At this moment, Stanford walked briskly over to them and asked, “Do you know me?”

Amanda did not turn to look at him but replied, “No.”

Jessica wanted to prove that she did not make a mistake and asked, “Are you Stanford?”

“Yes, I am.” Stanford was doubtful as there could be a coincidence and this old lady could have mistaken him for someone else. After all, this other lady kept denying.

“Mr. James, we have a meeting. We need to go now.” Atwood came over to remind him.

‘Even Atwood did not recognize them so most likely this old lady was mistaken.’ Stanford thought.

He did not persist and left with Atwood.

When Stanford got into the car, Atwood made up an excuse that he needed to use the restroom and told the driver to leave first. He would catch a taxi later. Stanford agreed and Atwood got out of the car.

After Atwood ensured that the car had left, he ran back into the airport terminal. However, the car moved a short distance and stopped. Stanford noticed Atwood’s actions from the rearview mirror and became suspicious.

“Shall we return to the office?” The driver asked.

“No.” Stanford opened the door and exited the car. He wanted to see what was going on as Atwood’s behaviour was very suspicious.

Atwood found Amanda inside the airport terminal.
