Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 965

“I won’t pursue this matter this time. You should give her more advice, and as for you, I will still tell you the same thing. Go study hard, and when you graduate you can come to help me in the company.”

In the past, he couldn’t move on because of certain things, and it made him miss so many important things in life. From now on, he never wanted to miss out on important things anymore.

George pressed his lips into a line and his heart was touched by Stanford’s words.

He remained silent because he didn’t know what to reply.

He didn’t know how to repay this forgiveness.

After some time, he was able to put his emotion in place. He simply said, “Thanks.”

There were so many things hidden in his heart that he wanted to say, but he couldn’t put them into words. A simple word of thanks was all he could manage to express his heartfelt emotion.

Stanford remained silent too, and all the time they were strolling, they were basked in silence. However, many things were going through their minds, and they thought long and hard.

After sending Stanford back, George returned home.

Alyssa was fine. Neither was she brought in to get interrogated nor was she caught for a crime.

However, she must be like sitting on needles from now on. Stanford was going to hate her to the core.

From this moment on, there wouldn’t be any good days ahead of her.

George ordered lunch because he didn’t know how to make food for himself. Soon, the table was filled with all kinds of food.

“Do you still have the mood to eat?” Alyssa was resentful of her son. If she could cherish the opportunity just now, she wouldn’t have returned empty-handed. She had nothing now.

George pretended not to hear her as she pushed Enoch to the dining table.

Alyssa couldn’t hold back anymore, “George, I am talking to you. You never know, I might be captured by the police tomorrow.”

She knew what she had done, and she was very certain that Stanford wouldn’t just let her off the hook without any repercussions.

George suddenly roared, “If the cops have intended to catch you, you would have been in custody by now. You won’t wait until tomorrow.”

Alyssa was dumbfounded, “What do you mean?”

It was not like she didn’t understand what her son was trying to say. It was just hard to digest.

George let out a sigh to calm himself down, “Come here and eat.”

Alyssa came over and sat down, but she didn’t have any appetite. She looked at her son, “George, do you know something that I am unaware of? You must help me this time, it’s for your own good.”

“For my own good?” George chuckled, “You are always saying that you’re doing something for my own good, but in fact, you’re just thinking for yourself, no?”

“Wh—What kind of nonsense are you saying now?” Alyssa was riled up once again.

George glared at her, “Did you ever ask me about what I really want in life?”

Alyssa was at a loss for words, “In this society, you won’t get any respect and importance if you don’t have money and power. All I am doing is to help you get some advantage. Don’t you want to have a lot of money and power?”

George snickered coldly, “You never asked me about that. You have decided everything for me and pretended that that’s what I want, but in fact, are those things what I want? Or are they what you are after?”

Alyssa was speechless again, and only after some time did she open her mouth again, “Then, what do you want?”

“I just want my mother to be someone kind and gentle…”

“What are you saying?” Alyssa slammed the table and shot up from her chair, “If I weren’t always thinking for your sake, do you think that I would be in my position today?”

“For my sake, it’s always for my sake, don’t you dare say again that you’re doing this for my sake! It’s just your excuse!” George also stood up with anger. He was having a standoff with her, “Those things are never what I wanted! You are the one who craves for them, and you’re just using me as an excuse to make you look noble.”

“Mum, did you ever stop to think that you’re in the wrong?” George’s voice gradually became soft.

“Ever since the beginning, you hooked up with someone else’s husband and you managed to be the official wife and treated the son of the first wife badly. You have turned into a so-called wicked stepmother, and do you ever regret anything? Do you ever reflect on your past mistakes when it’s late-night?”

“Stop lecturing me, you don’t have that right. I am your mother after all!” Alyssa tried to avoid her son’s gaze as it was embarrassing to be lectured by her own son.
