Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 1021

Bonnie didn’t move, widening her eyes and staring at her.

Joshua whispered, “If you kept staring at me, how could I continue kissing you?”

“Any difference?” Bonnie looked at him.

Joshua couldn’t utter a word.

“Why don’t your close your eyes and let me kiss you?” Bonnie wrapped around his neck, smiling.

Joshua laughed. “Are you tricking me?”

“No, I’m not,” said Bonnie sincerely.

He hesitated for a moment and closed his eyes slowly. Bonnie approached him while pulling out her phone and took a picture of him when he was pouting and waiting to be kissed.

Joshua heard the click and opened his eyes instantly. Then he saw Bonnie tried hard to hold back her laughter while posting his photo on the social media platform. She added some words: “My randy hubby!”

“Bonnie!” Joshua wanted to grab her phone, but Bonnie hid it under her body. “No way!”

“You are even mine. Give it to me or not?” Joshua raised her eyebrows.

Bonnie was speechless.

She sensed that he must be implying something.

“Let me bathe you.” Joshua carried her towards the bathroom.

Bonnie couldn’t utter a word.

“Haha...”

Downstairs, Amanda burst into laughter while sitting on the sofa in the lounge.

Joan poured a glass of water for her. “What are you looking at?”

She showed her phone screen to Joan. “Look.”

Joan saw what Bonnie had just posted -- a picture of Joshua who was pouting. He chuckled and passed the water to Amanda. “Have some water, please.”

Amanda took it over and said, “Thanks.”

Joan sat down next to her. “You’re always so polite to me.”

Gripping the glass, Amanda looked down and changed the subject. “How’s Nina doing?”

“She’s quite well. I’ve sent her to school,” answered Joan.

Amanda nodded. The was only silence in the lounge. It seemed that neither of them knew what to talk about. The atmosphere became a bit embarrassing.

“Well...”

“Well...”

They suddenly spoke in unison and looked at each other.

Neither expected that the other person would speak at this moment.

Joan said, “Go ahead, please.”

“Nothing important. I might go to work in a company in Thailand,” said Amanda.

Joan seemed to have known something. “Is it your dad...”

“Joshua has just held the wedding. Where are you going?” They heard Dolores’s voice behind the door.

They both stopped talking, looking over at the door.

Creak--

The door of the lounge was pushed to open.

Dolores and Matthew didn’t know that they were in the lounge. Hence, they were slightly taken aback when seeing Amanda and Joan.

“Dad. Mom.” Amanda stood up and walked over.

Matthew frowned. “You should get a room for sleep if you are drunk.”

She nodded. “Okay. I’m leaving now.”

After that, Amanda left the lounge.

“Are you taking care of her?” Dolores asked Joan.

Joan said, “Not really. She’s not drunk at all.”

Amanda looked drunk but her mind was pretty clear.

“You must have something to discuss. Please excuse me,” Joan said quite gentlemanly. He could tell that the Nelson couple wanted to have a conversation.

“We have plenty of rooms in the hotel,” Matthew reminded him.

“All right. Thank you, Mr. Nelson.”

Joan walked out of the lounge and closed the door for them.

Dolores looked back but didn’t overthink. She asked, “What on earth happened makes you leave town at this moment?”

Matthew sat on the sofa but didn’t explain. Noah didn’t have any progress yet. Sine Andrew couldn’t be found, Matthew couldn’t sit and wait without doing anything.

The longer he waited, the more dangerous Andrew would be.

Hence, he decided to look for his son in person.

However, he couldn’t directly tell Dolores about it, afraid that she would break down. She had just recovered a bit from what had happened to Amanda.

He couldn’t risk Dolores’s health.

“Say something!” Dolores frowned.

Matthew said, “It’s the company business...”

“Hasn’t Abbott done a good job?” Dolores obviously didn’t buy it.

“Yeah, but I still need to...”

Before Matthew finished his words, Dolores walked towards the door. He rushed to stop her. “Where are you going?”

“Abbott hasn’t left yet. I’ll ask him about the matter that he couldn’t handle but needs you.” Dolores looked back at him. “We’ve been married for so long. Why can’t you just tell me directly? Why are you hiding something from me?”

Dolores could sense clearly that Matthew was hiding something from her.

Matthew let go of her. “Alas... You’ve become such a tough nut.”

Probably they had been together for a long time, so they knew each other very well. If he wanted to hide something from her, he must put on a lot of effort and he might fail to do it eventually.

“I want to let Amanda work in Joan’s company,” said Matthew.

“What?” Dolores looked at him in surprise. “Why?”

“In this case, she’ll be closer to us. Besides, she could have a chance to practice.” Matthew pulled her in his arms. “She must grow up. We can’t always protect her, can we?”

Dolores understood and agreed with him.

She asked, “But why Joan’s company?”

“Joan asked me to find someone to manage his company, and I believe it’s a good chance for Amanda.” Matthew still didn’t tell her the truth. He deliberately distracted Dolores’s attention by mentioning their daughter.

Dolores was speechless.

Looking at Matthew, she asked, “Is it good?”

She believed that it was just like using Joan’s company to do an experiment.

“I’m always at Amanda’s back.” Matthew wrapped around her waist. “Hence, I need to leave town and inspire Joan’s company.”

He implied that he would go to help their daughter get prepared.

Dolores, however, still sensed something wrong. “Even so, you don’t have to do the inspiration in person, do you? Last time, we cooperated with him once. You should know his company well...”

“You look gorgeous in cheongsam,” Matthew suddenly interrupted her.

He nearly ran out of methods.

He realized that Dolores was truly a tough nut to crack.

Dolores looked down at her cheongsam and turned to look at him. “Don’t ever try to change the subject.”

Matthew was speechless.
