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

Chapter 84

“So what’s your point?”

The pupils of Matthew which were as dark as ink shrunk suddenly, which was almost undetectable. His eyes darkened.

Out of consciousness, Coral held the picture more tightly.

“Did you, did you...Is it possible that they are your illegitimate children...”

 

“No.” Matthew stopped Coral before she could finish her sentence.

He had only had sex with a single woman.

It was impossible that other women would bear his children.

Bastards? How was it possible?

“Coral, aren’t we having dinner tonight?” Looking at the empty kitchen, Matthew saw nothing. The table was carefully cleaned and was as bright as a mirror. It could show the reflection of a person.

Normally at this time, Coral would be in the kitchen preparing dinner. Or maybe dinner was ready for him. But today it seemed different.

Dinner?

Coral’s mouth corner twitched, “You are still in the mood for dinner?”

“...”

“You lost everything. Are you happy now?” While talking, Coral put the picture back to the drawer. She didn’t plan to just let it go, she decided to dig into this.

Matthew frowned. What got into her today?

“Look at this house. Does it look like a home to you? It is big. But does it have vitality? Only an old woman doing chores and a bachelor in his thirties live in this house. What’s the point of having money?” Coral closed the drawer. She was angry and didn’t want to make him dinner.

But she couldn’t. So she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Matthew looked at Coral’s back, which suggested that she didn’t plan to just let it go. Then Matthew opened the drawer to get the picture. Because he never liked to take pictures, so he didn’t even remember this one. If Coral had not taken it out today, he would have totally forgot about it.

Matthew held the picture and observed it carefully. The eyes and the face...

Hum hum...

The phone in his pocket rang up. There was a moment when a face in his memory flashed across his mind, which looked a lot like the face in this picture. But the ringing interrupted his thought.
