Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 978

He was willing to share his personal affairs because he was caught up in the moment. A person who was used to keeping to himself would take a while to open up to others, even if he wished to.

Since he was born to this family, he had the responsibility to protect the family’s honor. Many times it was not up to him. He had too much at stake which was linked to the social circle in which he was in.

“Heartfelt thanks.” Joan sincerely expressed his gratitude towards Amanda. He had caused her significant problems by asking her out today.

Amanda understood his predicament and did not mind. She suddenly asked, “If you had a choice, would you wish to be born in the same family?”

Joan did not hesitate, “Of course.” He did not care about what the family gave him other than warmth and love.

Amanda smiled. She understood Joan’s feelings. This family gave him love and warmth. At the same time, it also brought him the network that he had no choice but to interact with.

She then smiled at Joan and said, “I empathize with you.” The way she smiled was beautiful with those crescent-shaped eyes.

The banquet ended at around eleven o’clock. During the ball, Otto kept dancing with the Princess. Both of them did not leave each other’s side for the entire evening. It was very likely that Otto would be married to the Princess. In fact, the likelihood was around ninety percent.

Apart from Otto and the Princess, the admirer of Payne was also present and spoke to her the entire night. As a result, she had no time to pester Joan.

This banquet was conducted relatively smoothly, apart from that minor episode with Saranya.

All appeared to be fine until they were at the entrance of the house and then another incident happened.

George was unable to get to the person he wanted to see and did not leave. He was there waiting for her.

When George spotted the car he saw in the afternoon, he came out of the bushes and ran over to block the car. The headlights blinded him and he could not see the person in the car. However, he was certain that Amanda was inside as he remembered the license plate number.

“Amanda, I need to speak to you.” George yelled as he stretched out both of his hands and made it clear that he would not budge if Amanda did not get out of the car.

Inside the car, Amanda started to frown when she saw who was standing in front of the car.

Joan hesitated and then asked, “Do you want me to clear things up with him?”

Amanda shook her head, “Forget it, I’ll explain to him by myself.”

Joan pursed his lips and remained silent.

Amanda got out of the car and said before closing the door, “Please go back first.”

The driver looked back and drove off only when Joan said so.

After the car drove off, Amanda walked over to George. George frowned as he stared at the car and asked, “Who was that man?”

Amanda did not reply but asked calmly, “Why did you look for me?”

George persisted, “Who the hell is that man?” He came to help Stanford get her back. Now that he saw Amanda with another man, he must find out who this man was, otherwise how could he answer to Stanford?

“These are none of your business. I’m asking you why are you here?” Amanda was calm and cold, “You may leave if it had something to do with Stanford. I have nothing to say to you regarding him. If you’re here for some personal matters, then out with it.”
