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

Chapter 54

It was a week since Matthew left. Eventually, Dolores became at peace with this and went back to work as per normal.

“I heard that Mr. Nelson had gone to A Country to keep Ms. White company.” Everyone started to gossip during lunch.

“Since Mr. Nelson had already regarded Ms. White as his girlfriend, it was normal for him to go and see her. Except that…” The lady looked into her pocket mirror and adjusted her hair. She looked at herself in the mirror and grinned. She felt that the woman in the mirror was truly a beauty.

Everyone was already used to her self-professed beauty but was curious about what she wanted to say, “Except what?”

The woman glared at everyone and said, “If Mr. Nelson really liked her, why would he send her to A Country? There are so many people in the company. Why can’t he send someone else?”

Some felt that she had a point. But others disagreed.

“If it was as you mentioned, Mr. Nelson doesn’t like Ms. White, then how do you explain that he had not come to the company for a week just to take care of her? You should know that that had not happened in the past.”

Both of them had a point but their point of view was different. Some said that Matthew loved Helen while others disagreed.

“Hey, Dolores what do you think? Does Mr. Nelson love Ms. White?” A colleague asked Dolores who sat at her place silently, “Why don’t you participate with the group?”

Dolores laughed bitterly inside her. Wasn’t it ridiculous to discuss whether her ‘husband’ loved another woman?

A colleague shook Dolores, “Say something will you?”

Dolores helplessly said what she thought, “I don’t know. I just came to the company and don’t understand their relationship. I think he should like her, if not why would he regard her as his girlfriend?”

Everyone kept quiet for several seconds and felt that she had a point. If Matthew didn’t love Helen, why would he acknowledge her status?

“See, I knew that Mr. Nelson loves Ms. White.”

They didn’t stop gossiping and Dolores made an excuse to sneak away from them. After the break was over, everyone left and Dolores went back to her seat to work.
