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

“Huh?”

Allison pouted, “Don’t tell me that you don’t know them.”

Dolores really didn’t know. It was only after she saw them in the exhibition area that she found out who they were.

They were Armand and Boyce.

“Who designed this?” Armand stood in front of a long skirt with the name written clearly below it, but he pretended he couldn’t see it and asked Theresa.

“I did.” If she didn’t know that she was talking to a rich and powerful person, she would have cursed him for being perverted long ago. He was a man snooping around in women’s clothes and furthermore, he kept asking nonsense questions.

“Oooh!” Armand uttered, deliberately pulling the sound long making it feel uncomfortable. Theresa kept her temper calm and said, “Do you have any more questions? I you don’t mind, I am busy.”

“Yes, I do!” He picked the thin shoulder straps of the skirt, “What is the source of inspiration for this design? Why are the shoulder straps so thin? Is it because it would be easy to take it off or to expose the skin more?”

Theresa’s face turned red in an instant, and she glared at him.

Then she said coldly, “Are you here to stir up trouble and ruin the opening?”

“No, no! I’m just curious.” Armand grinned, “Stir up trouble? Do I not want to live?”

This was Dolores place.

And who was Dolores?

She was Matthew’s sweetheart at the moment. Armand didn’t have the guts.

“If you like it, you can buy it. About my source of inspiration, how about I tell you some other time?”

“I don’t have a girlfriend, why would I buy it?” Armand pouted.

Theresa smiled and two dimples appeared on the corners of her mouth making her look really cute, “If you want, you can wear it yourself.”

Armand was lost for words.

But Boyce next to him burst out laughing.

“This is a good idea! He can wear it himself! I am telling you it suits him.” Boyce took the opportunity to dig Armand’s grave.

Armand glared at him, “Will you die if you don’t talk?”

“Yeah… What are you looking at?”

Boyce noticed that Armand’s face had changed suddenly.

He followed Boyce’s line of sight and saw Victoria walk in from the door.

As Matthew’s friends, both of them knew that Victoria was Matthew’s stepmother.

It was because of her that Matthew had left his home so early and began to live alone.

It was also because of her that Matthew and his father’s relationship was so strained.
