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

Mrs. Meyer looked at her daughter and said, “It’s late in the night already, it’s not good for you to stay here.”

By then, she could see that the relationship between Charles and them was not as good as she had thought.

If they were good friends, how could they remain this calm even after knowing that Charles was abducted?

“I wouldn’t be able to sleep even I go back Mummy. I’m worried about Charles.” Even if Tiana did not know how Dolores felt about Charles, she was sure that Dolores would never harm Charles.

“Tiana.” Mrs. Meyer was afraid that her naive daughter would be taken advantage of if she was left alone.

“You can go back, mummy,” said Tiana in a determined tone. Mrs. Meyer was out of ideas as to how to convince her daughter, so all she said was, “I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning.”

“Okay.” Tiana promised instantly.

Matthew frowned, it appeared as if he did not want Tiana to stay there, let alone her taking up Dolores’ time, “It’s already late, I’ll have him delivered to you tomorrow. All of you, please just go back today.”

“Can you please tell Dolores that I want to meet her?” Tiana knew full well that Matthew did not want her there, but she was worried about Charles. Only Dolores could help him, so she could not leave yet.

“Tiana.” Mrs. Meyer wanted to convince her, but before she got to finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Tiana.

Tiana said, “Leave me alone, mummy.”

“Are you dumb? Can’t you read the situation? They obviously don’t want you here.” Mrs. Meyer was slightly annoyed at her daughter’s persistence as she said those hurtful words. However, she immediately regretted her choice of words.

“I’m sorry Tiana, I didn’t mean that…”

“It’s okay, I know that I’m dumb.” Tiana started tearing up as she felt devastated. She did not care when other people insulted her, but it hurt the most when her own family said that to her.

“Come in.” Dolores, who was standing in the door frame, said to Tiana.

Tiana heard that familiar voice calling to her.

She turned around, saw Dolores, and rushed towards her. She wiped her tears away and said to Dolores with a smile, “Dolores, I’m sorry for disturbing you this late in the night. Charles is gone, I’m worried about him. I can’t sleep well, but I don’t have friends to chat with me.”

Dolores knew that she was an upstanding girl. She held her hand and replied, “Don’t worry, you’re not disturbing me at all. You’re already calling me Dolores, after all. It’s my duty to take care of you.”

After she finished her sentence, she set her eyes on Mrs. Meyer, who was looking at Tiana worryingly. While Dolores’ first time meeting her was unpleasant to say the least, for Tiana’s sake, she decided to not bother her about it. After some thought, while Mrs. Meyer’s attitude was unnecessarily harsh, it was due to her motherly love and not wanting her daughter to be harmed.

Parents beneath the sky must have had it rough.

“I’ll take good care of her,” said Dolores to Mrs. Meyer.

Mrs. Meyer nodded and replied, “Much appreciated. I’m terribly sorry about last time.”
