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

Samuel lowered his head and said nothing.

Dolores frowned, “Say something.”

Samuel rubbed his hand on another, “He did something bad to mummy, so I need to kick his ass for mummy.”

Dolores frowned harder. Samuel had been stressing the fact that Matthew was hurting her before too.

He...

Suddenly Dolores opened her eyes wide. Did Samuel see that Matthew forced himself on her and kissed her?

“Samuel...”

Dolores didn’t know how to explain to Samuel.

Samuel firmly patted his own chest and said, “Mummy, though I and Simona don’t have a father, I am a man now. I will protect you.”

Hearing Samuel say that they didn’t have a father, Dolores felt like her heart was suddenly stung by something. It was a fact that she had been purposely ignoring.

She didn’t want to mention this.

She thought that as long as she loved them very much, they would forget that they didn’t have a father.

However, when the matter was suddenly mentioned by her son, she could only feel her chest hurting silently.

She hugged her son and lowered her head to kiss on his hair. Though he was indeed smart, he was only five years old, which made him still a kid.

But he said he would protect her.

Her hand rubbed on Samuel’s back, “It is mummy who should protect you...”

Samuel disagreed and shook his head, “It should be men who protect women. I am a man, so I will protect you.”

“...”

Dolores didn’t know what to say. She looked at her son and thought how old he was and why he was chauvinistic in personality already?

“Who taught you?” Dolores frowned and asked.

Samuel blinked his big eyes and thought for two seconds, “My teacher.”

Dolores carried her son to take him to a bath while thinking on the inside whether she should go talk to his teacher.

Was it appropriate to tell such a young child such things?

“Mummy, actually my teacher is handsome and he is good to me...”

“Stop!” Dolores interrupted her son. He was such a little child, how could he have such complicated thoughts?

Samuel muttered, “Even though you don’t think for yourself, I have to.”

“...”
