Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 47

She thought that she could be very calm. When she heard Matthew’s reminder, she was mentally prepared but when she saw Randolph now, the past memories that were hidden in her heart, the wounds and the pains, were always there.

She thought that she had gotten over it but in fact, she had not.

Randolph’s face took on a slightly ghastly expression. But, he was the one who had to beg others now and since he had already lost his face, what for to conserve his dignity?

‘Wham’, he knelt right at Dolores’s feet, “Lola, the company is about to close down as there is a collapse during the project. It hurts people and there is a conflict with the owners. Dad also already has no solution, help Dad one time.”

Originally, he was facing a lawsuit because of the project and now it even involved people’s lives. It was fortunate that Dolores gave him the contract of Repulse Bay so he could sell it to get some money. He compensated the family of the people who died with a large sum of money and he managed to settle this problem privately.

However, regarding the collapse during the project, the relevant department was very strict about this. He would be held accountable inevitably.

The company could not gain revenue that could cover a large amount of money invested in this project. So, the capital chain of the company fractured and the company was facing closure.

Dolores looked at the man kneeling at her feet. Her hands clenched tightly and trembled. She did not want to admit the father-daughter relationship with him, did not want to admit that she had been hugged by him and did not want to admit that she affectionately called him dad before.

Such a man knelt at this moment.

To say that she totally had no feeling would be a lie. She was really not that hard-hearted.

Dolores did not say a word. Randolph thought that she refused so his eyes flashed with anger and resentment, “I have already done whatever you said last time. Beulah and I had divorced and she left without taking any money as I didn’t give her anything.”

This was one of the reasons why Beulah went crazy. Before she married Randolph, she was a barwoman with no money and power. After she married Randolph, she never went out to earn money but just led the lifestyle of a noblewoman.

How could she survive from being divorced without taking any money?

She had already mingled with the circle of upper-class noblewomen before. She was unwilling to go back to do that kind of inferior job.

She had already gotten used to lead a high-level lifestyle.

In addition, Randolph blamed her for the matter that happened to the company, saying that the reason the company would be in such a crisis was that she had infuriated Matthew. She failed to let Matthew become their ally but instead, she let him become an enemy who harmed them.

Randolph also told her about Dolores’s words in which Dolores would help him get through the difficulties encountered by the company as long as he divorced her.

So, he forcibly pulled her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to divorce her.

And Beulah blamed Matthew for all these. If he did not pretend to be lame and deceive others, how would she let Randolph bring Dolores and her mother back from abroad?

If he did not pretend to be lame, she would not let Dolores marry him.

And everything after that would not happen. She would not have to be afraid of Dolores’s revenge until she frantically tried to win Matthew’s heart for her daughter, and she would not end up having nothing and been divorced without taking any money.

All this was Matthew’s fault.

If he did not pretend to be lame, everything would be different now.

Dolores wanted to laugh but she failed. She felt that this man was still as heartless as in the past.

In the past, it was her and her mother. Now, it was Beulah.

“Lola, Dad feels remorseful, really. I really shouldn’t have abandoned you and your mother.” Randolph’s eyes turned red and he was close to shedding tears, “If it wasn’t Beulah who got a son in her belly last time, I wouldn’t have been so unforgiving. You also know right, you were ten years old at that time but your mother never got pregnant again. I’m a man, I need a son…”

“Enough!” Dolores could not bear to hear his words anymore. Son? Son?

She seethed with so much hatred that her nails were almost embedded into her palm but she did not realize it.

Her entire body was quivering.

Matthew’s who was standing close to her noticed her agitation. He reached out his uninjured hand to hold her hand, wrapping it tightly in his palm.

His palm was wide, firm and warm.

It could inexplicably soothe one’s mind.

Dolores’s mind gradually calmed down.

“You leave here first.”

“Lola…”

“Stop speaking, if you say one more word, I won’t even consider to help you!” Dolores yelled. Her emotions were somewhat uncontrollable as she could easily become agitated.

Perhaps it was because the things done by Randolph could hardly stop her from becoming agitated.
