Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 850

Boyce curved up the corners of his mouth, he was smiling.

“Oh.” Armand knew that there was really a good thing happening on him based on his face expression, “No wonder you want to treat us a meal, is it that you have a good thing to show us off?”

Boyce glanced at him, “I don’t like to show off as much as you do.”

“What can I show off about?” Armand laughed. Although he had faced so many difficulties, it was nothing more precious than staying with Theresa safely at this moment.

In front of them, Jasmine and Theresa had entered the house. Dolores and Matthew were the first to arrive. Although they had moved away from the bungalow, they would still ask someone to clean up the place, so the bungalow was very clean and not dusty even though there was no one staying here.

Seeing that they had come, Dolores poured a few cups of water and placed them on the table.

“Boyce, I heard that you’re promoted.” Dolores put the jug down, she looked up and asked him.

Boyce sat on the sofa, “You really have your fingers on the pulse, you’ve known it even if I haven’t told you.”

Dolores chuckled, she had heard it from Matthew too. She didn’t know how Matthew knew it, but it was normal that he had his fingers on the pulse since he had a lot of connections.

“Let me take the opportunity to say a few words too.” Armand put his arm around Theresa and said, “Theresa and I have planned about it, we have come back this time to pick up grandma.”

“Where do you want to bring her to?” Boyce had just come back from his work not long before, he didn’t know about the matter that Armand was going to stay in City C.

Hence, he had asked about this.

Armand then explained again about the matter that he was going to City C, “Grandma’s illness is serious, but this is a good thing for me since I can finally stay with Theresa.”

He had come a long way to get here.

Armand’s grandma had already suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, her memories became worse when she fell and injured her brain again. Most of her memories stopped in the past, and it seemed like she had forgotten the recent ones. Forgetting about those unhappy memories was a good thing for Armand.

“You’re going to live there, how about here…”

“I’ve settled all the things here.” Armand knew what Boyce was going to ask.

Boyce patted him. The doorbell rang at this time, it was the delivery.

Dolores stood up and she went to open the door. There were three people coming with a few food boxes in their hands, Dolores stood sideways to let them come in, “Put them on the table.”

Soon, the deliverymen had put the food boxes on the table.

After they left, Dolores closed the door, then she walked beside the table and opened the food boxes. Theresa and Jasmine had also come to help her.

Dolores said, “I can do this in just a moment by myself, why do guys come here too?”

“The men are talking, we can’t get a word in edgeways.” Jasmine smiled, then she asked, “Do we need to put them in the plates?”

Theresa said, “The foods are all well-packed already, putting them in the plates just makes them look nice, and we will need to clean them up later.”

“You’re right.” Jasmine asked Dolores, “Dolores, why do you guys move to the Nelson Mansion and don’t want to stay here anymore?”

Dolores lowered her eyes to hide her emotion, she told her that Jayden was in a bad health condition and they missed the old place, so they had moved back.

When they had done placing the dishes, Theresa shouted toward the men in the living room, “You guys can eat while talking.”

“Boyce is promoted today, we shall celebrate it, I will go and take a bottle of wine here,” Dolores said.

“We have driven here, how do we go home if we drink?” Armand pulled Theresa and sat down.

Dolores stopped moving, she thought that what Armand said was right.

“Isn’t it that we can get a driver to drive for us? It’s rare that we can gather, for sure Boyce will be very busy in the future after being promoted, while Armand and I are also going to live in City C. It’s uncertain of when we will get to gather again, so we shall just drink some, what do you guys think?” Theresa said smilingly.

After that, everyone felt that what Theresa said was right, if they were to have a meal without drinking, then it would be boring, so they had taken two bottles over there.

Dolores wanted to pour them the wine initially, but Boyce had taken the bottle and said, “Let me do it.”

Dolores passed the bottle to him and sat down.

He poured them the wine one by one starting from Matthew, he just didn’t pour it for Jasmine, so Theresa had teased him, “I didn’t know that Boyce knows how to take care of someone so well in the past.” She looked at Jasmine smilingly, “You’ve married the right person. See, he has poured Lola and me the wine, but he just didn’t pour it for you, he cares about you so much.”

Jasmine felt a bit embarrassed, her face turned red listening to the words from Theresa.

She lowered her head shyly.

Boyce still didn’t pour Jasmine the wine when Theresa had finished talking.

He sat down and put the bottle aside, “She doesn’t know how to drink.”

“Then do we know how to drink?” Dolores laughed.

They were just making fun of them, they were not against Jasmine and they were just teasing Boyce, “Then you shall drink for Jasmine.”

“Sure.” Boyce answered immediately without hesitation.

Armand just looked at Boyce, “Faster go away, stop being lovey-dovey. We are celebrating your promotion, how can it be if your wife doesn’t drink?”

Armand took the wine which was put in front of Boyce, then he poured the wine for Jasmine and said, “We are celebrating for your husband today, you can’t disappoint us.”

“Armand.” Theresa glared at him.

She just wanted to tease Boyce, she didn’t really want to let Jasmine drink since she was the youngest here and she was still a university student, it was really inappropriate for her to drink.

Jasmine stood up and poured a cup of water, “I will replace the wine with water.”

Armand still wanted to say something, but Dolores had interrupted him, “Okay, just drink the water.”

She seemed to have realized something, it wasn’t because of Jasmine couldn’t drink, she had drunk last time too. Since everyone was here today, for sure she didn’t do this intentionally.

“She has married Boyce for quite a while already, perhaps she is pregnant?’

Dolores was not sure about this, she was just guessing.

Or else, she couldn’t think of other reason that Jasmine rejected to drink.

“You guys have started this first, now it is you guys again who have stopped me, why are women so capricious?” Armand sat down.

Theresa pinched his ear, “If I’m capricious, will I still stay with you whole-heartedly?”

“Ouch.” Armand wussed out soon, “There are so many people here, please save face for me.”

“Do you still have face?” Boyce said ironically, “Isn’t that you are always punished by Theresa to kneel on the washboard at home?”

Armand’s eyes widened and he stared at Boyce fiercely, then his eyes fell on Jasmine who was sitting beside him, “Did you hear it, Jasmine? He likes to kneel on the washboard, you shall let him kneel on it when you go back home today, he likes it.”

“You are the one who like it.” Boyce poured half of the wine from his glass into Armand’s glass, “You need to drink more, so that you can shut up.”

“Scram, you have drunk it, I don’t want it.” Armand took his glass, and he was going to pour the wine back.

Boyce said, “I didn’t drink.”

“You still can’t, or I will let Jasmine drink for you?” Armand turned to Jasmine when he was talking, “You shall finish drinking this for your husband, anyway he had drunk this already.”

Boyce stopped him and took the glass, “Armand, why are you so annoying?”

“Am I annoying just because I’ve let your wife drink?” Armand looked at him, “Why do I feel like there is something wrong with you guys, is it that you guys are sick?”

Thinking of this, Armand looked serious on his face.

“You’re the one who is sick.” Boyce wished to open Armand’s brain and see what’s inside.

“Then why…”

“Perhaps Boyce is going to become a dad?” Dolores interrupted Armand and she looked toward Jasmine.
