Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 407

Jeffery thought that Jayden had betrayed Jolene, so he could not let Matthew do so.

He could not allow Jolene's son to get close to Victoria.

Marina sighed. She knew what Jeffery was thinking. She was worried that the situation would become more serious and would destroy the close relationship between Jeffery and Matthew.

“Do you want to ask Eddie whether he revealed the information?” Marina asked.

They should find out the truth of the matter, otherwise Matthew might misunderstand Jeffery and it will form a grudge between them.

Jeffery pressed his eyebrows with fingers, “You make a call to Eddie and tell him that I want to meet him.”

Jeffery intended to ask Eddie some questions. This matter hurt Dolores a lot after all. Fortunately, Matthew and Dolores kept their marriage secret, so fewer people knew that they had married. Dolores's matter did not affect him much. Otherwise, the situation could get out of his hand.

Marina walked to the door and opened it. At the same time, Sean stood in front of the door and wanted to knock on the door. Both of them met each other coincidentally, “Mom.”

“Didn't you say you wouldn't come back in the next few days?” Marina asked.

Sean said with a smile, “I've changed my mind. By the way, Eddie is here.”

Marina took a glance at Sean's shoulder and saw Eddie and Chloe behind him. She was going to call Eddie, but Eddie was here, so she did not have to make a call. Marine took Sean by his hand and walked out of the room, and looked at Eddie, “Jeffery is in the study. He has something to say to you, and he asks you to go into the study now.”

Eddie nodded, and he immediately knew what Jeffery wanted to say to him. Eddie had prepared the countermeasure when he disclosed the information at the time.

“Chloe, you should be mature and steady,” Eddie looked stern, and he admonished Chloe not to speak carelessly in front of Sean.

Chloe understood Eddie's intentions, and she nodded, “I understand.”

Then, Eddie walked into the study at ease and closed the door. Jeffery got up and pulled a chair for Eddie. Both of them sat in front of the window.

“I'm sure you've seen the news on the Internet, right?” Eddie spoke first.

Jeffery nodded honestly.

“I came to you for this matter,” Eddie said, and he looked at Jeffery with his face clear, “It is my fault for not doing well in this matter.”

Jeffery was stunned because he thought that it was the Herbert family who did it. How could it be Eddie?

“Well, I knew the Herbert family is eager to revenge Dolores. I shouldn't suggest you use Sampson to deal with Dolores at the time. I heard that Sampson was very fond of Dolores and the Herbert family felt resentment against Dolores. So they gave wide publicity of this matter, and I knew it was the Herbert family who did it. I didn't care about it when Landon said this at the time. I thought it was just a big talk, and I didn't expect that he dared to do it,” Eddie felt guilty and said.

Soon he changed his subject and said, “You and I enlisted the armed forces at the same time. Our friendship is a forget-the-age relationship now. I don't hide my mind from you. Now the matter played out like this, and we can only push the boat with the current.”

Eddie made a clean breast of everything. Jeffery could not say anything more, but he started to feel hatred against the Herbert family.

Jeffery looked at Eddie, “Do you mean...”

Eddie nodded, “It's time to put pressure on Matthew now.”

Jeffery hesitated. He would not hesitate to put pressure on Matthew if Dolores was not pregnant. However, Dolores had conceived Matthew's baby, and Jeffery was afraid that it was difficult for Matthew to compromise with him.

“Why, are you embarrassing now?” Eddie noticed that Jeffery felt embarrassed, and he persuaded, “Do we still have a way to escape? I've handed over my beloved and only daughter.”

Jeffery understood that there was no way back to go.

He could not disappoint Eddie as well.
