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

Theresa saw it but she did not say anything. She knew why Elizabeth called Armand too. It was all about the child’s matter.

She was down again. Child, for her, was an intractable problem.

At first, she thought that she would solve the problem by agreeing to have surrogacy but she failed.

Armand kept his phone and said, “Junk phone call from sales promotion.”

Theresa pretended that she did not see it and smiled while she was saying, “The promoters nowadays are irritating. The one, who sells insurance, sells houses and loans all call to expand their business.”

Armand said, “Yea, so irritating.” He looked at her, “We still have some time, is there any place that you wish to go?”

Theresa shook her head.

“A film is recently released with pretty good reviews, let’s go and watch it?”

Theresa said, “Sure.”

It was okay for her to go anywhere as she did not have a particular place that she wished to go.

Armand took out his phone to search for the nearest available time slot.

The nearest one was more than two hours away, so he said, “Let’s eat first before we go.”

Theresa said, “You arrange it.”

They got out of the law firm and got into the car. Armand drove. When he just started the car engine and was about to drive it away, the phone in his pocket rang again. It was from his house. Armand hung up again with no expression.

When he was about to switch it off, Theresa said, “Send me back to my place, and you go back to see grandma.”

Armand explained, “Theresa ....”
