Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 140

Matthew did not answer her.

Dolores had no choice but to sit patiently and quietly.

After a while, the car stopped at the hotel she had been to last time.

Dolores sat still in her seat, “Why did you bring me here?”

Matthew opened her door, pulled her out by the wrist and strode into the lobby dragging her with him.

“What are you doing?” Dolores struggled to free her hand, but his hands were as strong as iron cuffs.

Through the lobby, to the elevator and going up, Matthew led her to the door of the room.

A beep sounded as he unlocked the door.

“What the hell are you doing? I need to go back, Samuel’s injury is still not healed, I should be there with him…”

Damn it!

Before she could finish her sentence, Matthew pulled her into the room and closed the door behind her.

Dolores heart trembled, beating loudly in her chest. She had seen him angry, but she had never seen him this angry.

The air in the room felt quiet and empty, just like the air before a violent storm. The deep voice that came from his chest felt the same, “Tell me, what is wrong with you?”

Dolores leaned back against the closed door; her palms were sweaty.

She didn’t speak, but stared at him, trying to see his heart clearly. What kind of heart was hidden behind his handsome face?

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” His voice was still bone-chillingly cold.

“I met Maria.” Her hands hanging on her sides clenched into fists, her palms wet and sticky with sweat.

Matthew frowned slightly, “So what?”

Was this why she was suddenly angry?

“She told me something.”

Matthew stayed silent waiting for her next words.

Dolores mustered up all her courage before saying, “She said that you had her raped.”

She stared at him, “Is that true?”

She wanted him to deny and prove that he was not that cruel and heartless.

That he didn’t have anyone rape Maria.

That his heart was not that cold.

But Matthew’s answer made her own heart cold.

“Yes.”

Her ears buzzed and her throat seemed to have a huge lump in it. She couldn’t speak for a long time.

She found her voice after a long time, “Why?”

“Why did you do that? Did you never love her? How could you do this to her?” Dolores couldn’t understand.

She couldn’t accept that he was such a person.

She was used to his goodness. Somewhere deep inside her heart, something broke.

Just because of this man.

She was at a loss because of what he did.

“Are you angry just because of this?” Matthew’s eyes slowly changed from anger to calm as she continued to look at him.

“Is this a trivial matter? Is your heart made out of stone?”

Matthew reached over to sweep away a strand of hair that was on her forehead, but Dolores turned her face away, avoiding his touch.

“Do not touch me.”

“Are you that angry?” Matthew kept his hand stretched in front of her forehead and then gently caressed her nose, “Why are you so angry?”

“I don’t want you to be such a cruel person.” She blurted out the words in her heart.

She only realized how upset she was after saying that.

She couldn’t accept that he was such a person.

Looking at her angry face, Matthew felt extremely attracted to her.

Although she didn’t reject his touch now, she had never opened her heart in front of him like this before.

She had always been reserved.

He stroked her cheek with his fingers, resting on her brow bone. He paused for a long time, his smile growing deeper and deeper, “Why don’t you want me to be cruel?”

Dolores avoided his gaze in panic. Her heart seemed to be swimming in a stormy ocean, unable to calm through the ups and downs.

Why did she hope for him to not be cruel?
