Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 972

She dreamt that she was tied up and unable to move, and was thrown into a vigorously burning fire.

She desperately screamed for help but she could not make any sound.

She was frightened and frantic with terror.

Nina who had washed her hands asked Joan what Amanda was doing.

Joan said she was sleeping.

“I’ll go to take a look.”

“No.” Joan refused, “You might wake her up.”

“I’ll just take a glance. I won’t wake her up. You can follow me if you are worried,” Nina said while tugging at him.

While Joan was hesitating, Nina added, “She is already asleep. She won’t know.”

After finishing her words, she pulled Joan and walked to the bedroom, regardless of his consent.

Joan was speechless.

The door of the room was gently opened. Nina made a shushing gesture to Joan.

Joan was speechless.

He was pulled by Nina to the bed. Amanda was curling up. It was an insecure sleeping position. Many beads of sweat were formed on her head.

It looked like she was in agony.

Nina frowned. ‘Is she feeling hot?’

‘But this room isn’t hot.’

‘Why is she sweating so much?’

Amanda who was struggling in her dream saw a person’s figure through the firelight. She could not see the person’s face and could only see it was a very slender figure.

She desperately tried to grab him and was shouting with all her strength, “Save me…save me…”

Nina blinked, “What is she saying?”

Joan realized that she might be having a nightmare. He reached out and gently patted her shoulder, “Ms. Nelson.”

“Save me…”

She saw the person walking over. His appearance slowly became clear. She reached out to grab him…

Out of the blue, she opened her eyes and was gasping. She woke up from her dream.

What she saw was Joan’s handsome face with well-defined features. He was looking at her with concern at this moment.

She became slightly more awake.

“Did you have a nightmare?” Joan asked with concern.

Amanda sat up and found that her hand was surprisingly gripping Joan’s arm. She panicked and withdrew her hand, “I’m sorry, I…”

“It’s okay.” Joan went to get a handkerchief and handed it to her, “Wipe your sweat.”

Amanda took it and clutched it in her hand. She was still not recovered from the shock of the dream. For so long, she had never had such a dream.

The scene in the dream was so real.

It was so real that she could still feel the burning pain of fire on her body now.

Seeing her not moving, Joan reached out to wipe the sweat from her forehead. Just as his fingers touched her forehead, Amanda jerked back abruptly.

She was shocked due to this sudden touch.

Joan’s hand stayed in mid-air.

They looked at each other and were slightly at a loss for words.

The atmosphere became subtle at once.

Joan withdrew his hand and apologized for his subconscious abrupt behaviour, “Sorry, no offence.”

“It’s okay.” Amanda regained her presence of mind, turned her head and wiped the sweat on her forehead. Her movements were a bit chaotic and she was inexplicably panicky. As to what she was panicking about, she herself was not sure either.

“I’ve picked the fruit. Sally went to wash it. You get up and eat some,” Nina said.

Amanda looked at Nina, deliberately avoiding meeting Joan’s eyes and said, “Okay.”

Nina smiled, “Then I’ll wait for you outside.”
