Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 449

Matthew Nelson lifted his eyes to look at her, his eyes filled with inexpressible sincerity and distress.

He wasn’t there for her when she needed someone to take care of her.

‘It must have been hard for her to raise them alone.’

Simona Flores’s little fist was looser.

Dolores Flores’s voice was softer, “Even if after I will have many other babies, it would never replace my Simona and Samuel, because I can’t live without you.”

Simona turned the head with a lump in her throat and looked at her.

Dolores reached out to wipe her tears and stroke gently her face with the fingers, “Simona is my little baby, mummy wants her to grow up, mummy also wants her to be a strong and brave child, because daddy and mummy can’t be with you forever. The world is so wonderful, there is still a long way to go and you need to go your own way. Mummy loves you, so she needs to be strict with you.”

Simona let go of her hand and touched her belly. It was still early, so she almost didn’t feel him. She sniffed her nose, “Is there really a little baby inside?”

Dolores bowed her head, her eyes filled with tenderness, and hugged her daughter, “Yes, also Simona was in mummy’s belly before and she grew up little by little.”

The little child was curious and reached out to touch, but she still didn’t feel him.

“In the future, Simona will become a big sister. The baby will be very little, and he will need to be cared by you before he can grow up.”

The little child’s face pressed against Dolores’ belly and rubbed against her clothes, “Am I the big sister?”

“Yes, you are the big sister.” Dolores smiled and rubbed her daughter’s hair. “My Simona grew up, she will attend primary school soon and she’s going to become a big sister. I remember when you were born, you were small, not so big, and I was afraid that I couldn’t raise you.”

The little child hugged her tightly, “Mummy.”

“Do you remember what you ate to grow up when you were a child?” Dolores held her daughter’s face in her hands and looked at her.

“Remember?”

The little child nodded, “Yes.”

“Do you know what your brother ate to grow up?”

“Yes, I know. Mummy was afraid that I didn’t eat enough, so you gave breast feeding to me, and Samuel could only have milk powder.”

“So tell me, do you think mummy loves you?”

The little child laid silently in her arms and sobbed softly.

“Sorry…”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. I understand what you are worried about. No matter if it’s mummy or daddy, you are our sweetheart and nobody can replace you.”

The little child held Dolores’ hand more tightly.

Knock...

Victoria Forbis knocked on the door and stood on the doorway, “Dinner is ready, come to eat.”

Dolores hugged her daughter, “Okay, don’t cry anymore. You don’t look pretty when you cry.”

Simona wiped her face. “Mummy put me down. I don’t want the baby to leave.”

Dolores smiled and kissed her daughter’s face. “Mummy will be careful, but I want to give you a hug. You already grew up, so very soon I won’t be able to hug you. Now that I can still do it, I want to hug you again.”

The little girl nestled in her neck and felt so happy that her mum still loved her.

Matthew held her waist and told her, “Slow down.”

Dolores gave a sound of hum.

Victoria was also terrified. The signs of the miscarriage could easily reappear and she was afraid that she would have some accidents.

The study room was not too far from the dining room but Matthew’s heart still leapt with anxiety. The doctor told her not to go down to the ground, but not only she went down and walked, she was also holding that “little butterball”.

Although Simona was not fat, she was over fifteen kilos.

When they arrived at the dining room, Matthew took his daughter and put her on the chair.

Samuel put down a musical notation, walked over, sat down on the chair and asked, “Who plays the piano at home?”

“I play it,” Dolores replied, smiling as she looked over.

“Mummy, can you play the piano?” Samuel asked, opening his eyes wide.

“I’ve never seen mummy play the piano,” Simona said with an expectant look, her voice was husky from crying.

“After dinner, I will play it for you.” Dolores didn’t want them to feel ignored because of her pregnancy.

Moreover, she had been cooped up at home since she got pregnant.
