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

“Young master and young madam, the dumplings are ready downstairs. Mrs. Nelson asks you to go down.” Thomas stood in the doorway.

Dolores swallowed the words that hovered on the tip of her tongue and said, “Let’s go down.”

When Matthew was drinking with Armand and Boyce, he just drank some wine but did not eat anything. He was a little hungry at the moment.

So, he responded with a light hum.

It was not yet the end of the year, but Victoria had prepared a sumptuous meal, presumably it was because Dolores and Matthew had brought their two children over, so she prepared a lot of food to make Matthew happy.

But she did not know what he liked, so she prepared more.

Dolores knew what Victoria was thinking. She looked up at Matthew.

Matthew pretended he did not see it and pulled out a chair to sit down.

Dolores went into the kitchen. The maid had just turned off the fire. There were dumplings inside the pot. Dolores picked up a ladle, “I’ll serve it.”

The dumplings in the pot were prepared by Victoria, Dolores and her children, which seriously affected the attractiveness of all the dumplings.

Dolores put the dumplings made by her two children in a large bowl.

The maid took a look at it and was a bit confused, “Since you’re serving them together like this, it’s not appetizing. Who can finish such a big bowl of dumplings?”

Dolores smiled and said, “Someone can finish it.”

She was doing it on purpose.

He did not want to eat the dumplings that were prepared by Victoria. Then, she gave the dumplings prepared by her and the children to him.

It was good to make him feel extremely full.
