Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap by Hannah Baker

“What’s going on?” Jessica asked, finally understanding the situation. “Wasn’t the money for the operation covered by the offender’s insurance?”

Jessica’s operation after the accident was fairly expensive and a lot of money had been spent on her son’s burial expenses as well. Before they released Jessica from the hospital, Dolores also gave her a little money, explaining that it was what was left from the offender’s insurance claim.

Dolores wasn’t sure what to say, and it was too difficult for her to find the right words.

After Dolores was silent for several moments, it was a clear confession of her lies. She was such a young woman, and it was impossible for her to raise such a significant amount of money legally. Jessica’s heart shattered, and she didn’t want to believe the facts in front of her. “You … don’t tell me you sold yourself…” Jessica grabbed Dolores’s wrist. “You can’t give birth to this baby. We must go to the hospital before this pregnancy progresses any further.”

“Why?” Dolores asked, trying to pull her hand from Jessica.

“If you give birth to the baby, your life will be ruined!”

Jessica couldn’t let Dolores give birth to a baby that wasn’t her husband’s. If anyone knew, her life would never be the same.

“Mom, please. I want to give birth to the baby,” Dolores begged.

No matter how hard Dolores begged, Jessica didn’t agree, and she was determined not to let Dolores go through with it.

Jessica took Dolores to the hospital that day.

When Dolores refused to go, Jessica even threatened to kill herself.

Dolores had no choice but to go with her mother, not wanting to lose the last of her family.
