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

“If you had to choose between a boy and a girl, what will be your choice?” Dolores Flores ruminated for a moment.

Matthew Nelson looked up and gazed at her, “If I had to choose, I’d prefer you give birth to another baby girl.”

Having Samuel Flores as the only son was enough.

Their daughter was closer to them, he adored how attached Simona Flores was to him.

Compared to the daughter, their relationship with their son became less intimate.

Dolores found a comfortable position and relaxed herself in his arms, “I like boys, and I hope it’s a boy this time.”

Girls were delicate, they got hurt easily be it in relationships or in life, whereas guys were different.

Matthew understood why she had this mindset, she was speaking from experience. He hugged Dolores and kissed her forehead, “No one is going to hurt our daughter.”

Dolores never second guessed his words.

This topic seemed a little distant, Dolores questioned, “Why did you tell Sean about what happened?”

“Hmm?” Matthew frowned slightly, what did she mean?

What exactly did he tell Sean?

“About what Jeffery Harris did,” Dolores explained.

“He knew about it?”

“You didn’t tell him…” Dolores felt something wasn’t right, Matthew would’ve admitted it if he was the one who told Sean.

Only a few people were aware about this, Boyce, Armand, even Charles, it could be anyone of them.

“Don’t think too much about it.” Matthew patted her back, “Go to sleep.”

There wasn’t a need to worry if Sean had heard about the inside story, he was unwilling to let Sean know about this matter either.

Even if he were able to keep it from him, there was no telling if it would stay a secret in the future. This wasn’t a small matter to begin with.

He did not want Dolores to lose sleep over such affairs.
