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

Maria seemed to know what they were there for. She had known that this day was going to come someday but she hadn’t expected to arrive so soon.

“Why do you care what I laugh at?” She suppressed her laughter.

In Boyce’s eyes she suddenly looked like a lunatic.

“Where is Dolores?” A gloomy voice came from the darkness.

“How would I know where she is?” Maria smiled, “Why? You can’t find her? Did she and that man elope…”

She hadn’t even finished her sentence when she felt a strong wind whoosh past her and a pair of iron clad hands choked her around her neck, making her unfinished words stuck in her throat.

Her face flushed as she struggled to breathe.

“Tell me, where is she?” His eyes were red. Dolores going missing had left him heartbroken and void of any humanity and emotions of protection.

Seeing Matthew so angry because of Dolores, Maria wanted to laugh.

However, the laughter that squeezed out of her throat was like broken bellows and unpleasant to hear.

Matthew gathered his strength and pressed harder almost choking any space from where she could breathe. If she had still refused to say anything, he would have strangled her to death!

Boyce saw her being strangled to death and realized that this was not right.

He hurriedly persuaded, “It is important to find Dolores right now! We need her. If she dies, who will tell us where is Dolores?”

“If she dies, we won’t be able to find her!” Seeing him unconvinced, Boyce continued to persuade.

Even though Matthew was out of his mind right now, he could also hear Boyce’s words. Right now, it was important to find Dolores first.

He tossed her away hard. Maria fell like a parabola on the steps, knocking her forehead on the corners. After a moment of tingling pain, she could feel something warm flow down from her forehead.

Being able to breathe again, she opened her mouth wide and took huge gulps of air.

Boyce didn’t give her much time to relieve the pain of suffocation. He reached out, lifted her up and threw her into the car, “Let’s see what wins, your mouth or my skill.”

He had interrogated all kinds of prisoners. He couldn’t believe that he would be unable to make her talk.
