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

They all reached their heads out and waited to see what Matthew was going to do about it. Would he admit it, or would he not?

If he admitted it, it would be so embarrassing. He carried that thing around. Was he preparing to have sex at anytime and anyplace?

Chester felt like his mouth was sore now. He wanted to laugh but could not do it. He could only restrain himself.

The assistant beside him took out his phone and wanted to film this. Abbott was about to stand up and stop him. If words got out, how would it reflect on Matthew?

But as soon as he moved, he was grabbed by Matthew, “Sit down.”

Matthew reached his hand to get the Durex in Samuel’s hand. He held it in his hand and observed it for two seconds before putting it into his pocket, “Thanks.”

“...”

Samuel was feeling weird. Why wasn’t he angry?

It was obvious that his friends were all laughing at him.

Matthew seemed to have detected his confusion.

He bent down and said beside Samuel’s ear, “Someone will pay for this.”

Samuel glared at him. What did he mean by that?

But Matthew had no intention to tell him what he meant by that. Though Samuel played a trick on him, he was not feeling embarrassed. Instead, he was feeling quite good.

He raised his glass which was refilled by Chester before and bottomed it up.

Abbott had no clue about what just happened.

Chester who was sitting beside Matthew was confused too. Matthew was confronted with such an embarrassing scandal. Shouldn’t he be trying to cover it up?

Why did he admit it generously?

Was it because the more one tried to hide, the more one was exposed? Or was it because honest man feared neither light nor dark?

Chester didn’t understand. But he was in no place to ask about it. So he looked at Samuel and said smiling, “Little lad, do you want to stay here and have some food?”

Samuel shook his head and looked at Matthew with confusion all over his eyes. He wondered why he wasn’t angry with him.

He could not figure it out and could only turn around and get out of the private room.

“Samuel...”

Samuel was out for too long, so Dolores came looking for him.

After Samuel left the private room, he saw Dolores crying his name in angst. So he hurried to her side, “Mummy.”

Hearing his sound, Dolores turned around. Watching her son running to her, she heaved a sigh of relief. She squatted down to welcome her son, who bumped into her arms.
