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

“Jasmine, your friend like you, don’t he?” Keith said.

Boyce was startled and curious at the same time as to why did he ask.

Jasmine was shocked, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“He borrowed my mobile when I sent the clothes. I think he called his family telling them he’s doing fine. Does he plan to stay here? And…” He turned to Jasmine, “When I said I like you, he disapproved, if he really does wants the best for you, doesn’t he wants someone to take care of you?”

“Maybe he thinks we are not suitable to each other, you overthink,” Jasmine said.

She stood up wanted to walk away but was stopped by Keith, “I mean it when I said I like you.”

Jasmine was all blank and at loss for a word with this sudden confession.

“Jasmine, you are an orphan, but I can be your family. There won’t be any pressure on you being my family, no one will say anything…”

“Please stop it, I have no intention of getting into a relationship now,” Jasmine rejected.

“We are about the same age and our family background matches, please do consider…”

A sudden glass breaking sound from the house interrupted them. Jasmine struggled loose from Keith and ran towards the house. She saw Boyce standing in front of the desk with broken glass on the floor.

She dashed up to check Boyce’s hand, “Are you hurt?”

Boyce pressed his lips and watched Jasmine in silence.

Jasmine looked up and saw Boyce looking at her with a complicated gaze. She realized she was holding his hand and released them immediately, “You have injuries and I scare that you hurt yourself again…”

“You said you like me.” Boyce interrupted her.

Keith froze at the door.
