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

Dolores’ heart clenched as she wondered if he really did bring the divorce papers with him. She asked in a low voice, “What’s this?”

Armand pulled out a luggage bag from the back of the car, walked towards her and said, “These are all Theresa’s things.”

Dolores, looking at the bag in his hand, did not immediately take it as she asked, “What’s this all about…”
