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

"How, how could you know?" Dolores was taken aback.

She narrowed her eyes when she realized what was going on the next second. "You've known all along but didn't tell me?"

"Don't think too much..." Matthew said, tightening his grip on her.

"I wasn't thinking too much, if you didn't know, how could you tell just now?"

She regretted not stopping Jessica when she thought of this.

"How long has it been since it happened?" With her eyes lowered, she asked.

"Before the new year," Matthew said after a little pause.

That was a few days ago.
