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

The whole Herbert family knew that Matthew canceled the engagement with Maria, including Sampson. And Sampson knew from Maria why Matthew canceled the engagement.

Therefore, when he saw Matthew, he couldn’t hide the anger in his heart.

His brother Warner, who was sitting beside him, detected his fluctuating emotions. Warner reached his hand to pat Sampson’s shoulder and said in a low voice, “If it was not because the Herbert family had a long history, we wouldn’t have made it a long time ago. City B has changed a lot. You are not in the county most time of a year, and don’t know what’s going on here. Though it is he who broke the promise this time, we can’t just argue with him face to face.”

Sampson was angry not only because of the cancellation of engagement, but also because of Dolores.

Six years ago, in order to help Dolores to get rid of Matthew, he took her away from City B and hid her in Country A.

He thought with the passage of time, Dolores would accept him one day. And maybe six years would cut her away from her short history with Matthew.

But after six years, Dolores still didn’t want to accept him.

And Matthew even canceled the engagement with his sister because of Dolores.

How could he stay calm?

“He thinks he can do whatever he wants with some money?” Sampson didn’t try to cover his discontent and detest for Matthew.

Sampson’s voice wasn’t low, so Matthew heard what he said. He casted his eyes on Sampson. He remembered that his man was close to Dolores before.

He dusted his collar, trying to clean the dust that didn’t exist. He said calmly and peacefully, “What did you say? I didn’t hear it.”

Warner immediately covered for Sampson, “You canceled the engagement with Maria. He was just wining about it. Please ignore him.”

While talking, Warner dragged the sleeve of his younger brother, asking him to stop talking.

But Sampson didn’t listen to his brother and said with no fear in his voice, “As a man, you hurt a woman like this. Aren’t you afraid that you will get struck by lightning?”

Warner’s face changed. He glared at his brother. Did he really want to make an enemy now that Matthew couldn’t be a family member?

What’s the good in breeding enmity with the Nelson family?

He worked so hard for this family. Sampson never contributed to his family and now he intended to bring troubles to the family?

At this moment, Warner was very disappointed at his selfish brother who only thought for himself and never thought about his family.

Matthew faked a smile and said in an interesting tone, “I am just afraid that the lightning will strike someone else instead.”

Sampson clenched his fists. If he wasn’t dragged by Warner, he might go out there and have a fight with Matthew.
