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

Chapter 15

Helen tried to calm down her nervousness as she replied with tears welling up beneath her eyes, “She is always around you all the time, and if she even works for you, later on, you two will only get close to each other. I am really scared that you will have feelings for her.”

Since there was no point in hiding the truth anymore, she decided to come clean with it to clear up Matthew’s doubts. She was doing all this because she was afraid of losing him.

She blinked her huge watery eyes, “You have known me for a long time. You know very well how much I love—“

Helen stammered slightly while holding back her tears and continued, “I fear the day I would lose you, that’s why—that’s why I decided to meddle in the hiring process.”

Matthew frowned and replied, “I’ve already told you that we are going to divorce each other in one month.”

Helen was perfectly clear about this. If not for the fact that Dolores was that woman from that night, she was willing to wait as long as required. She had waited all those years anyway, so one month was nothing. However, she felt like her patience was running out.

She couldn’t let Dolores become too close to Matthew!

She didn’t want that to happen!

“Dolores, this is for table number two. Go serve them.”

Dolores responded but there was a nagging sense of pain in her lower abdomen area. She didn’t know whether this was because she didn’t sleep well last night coupled with the fact that she had been standing at work for a long time.

She carried the tray of food and headed towards table number two, but before she could reach that table, she caught a glimpse of Helen, and sitting opposite her—

She didn’t have to wrack her brain to identify that man.

She stopped short for a moment but she was able to regain her composure in the next second. This was her job, so she couldn’t avoid facing them.

With a polite smile plastered across her face, she announced, “Your food is here.”

When she placed one of the dishes in front of Matthew, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by him, “What the hell are you doing here?”
