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

Chapter 860

Dolores turned up the heat and refilled the bowl. Matthew then left with the tray.

Since the afternoon, Carol and Jessica had been busy preparing for the reunion meal at night. The whole table was full of delicacies but no one was eating them now. Everyone seemed to lose their appetite.

This time, when Matthew sent in a new serving of dumplings, Jayden only managed to eat two. He said, “Ask… Kevin to come in.”

Matthew went out to summon Kevin.

Kevin’s eyes were reddened and there were moisture in them too. He sat on the edge of the bed and said, “Whatever you want to tell me, I am all ears.”

Jayden began, “I have something to tell you… If I were gone, you must look after them more.”

Kevin knew who he was referring to. He assured Jayden, “Don’t worry. Your child is Victoria’s child, no? His wife and children are naturally my relatives too. As long as I’m around, I will help you to look after them.”

Jayden slowly nodded as if he was satisfied with what he heard.

“I think… I am almost on my way to see her.”

His voice was especially hollow and weak.

Kevin held his hand and for some reason he couldn’t stop shaking. He still had something to say, but all he could manage was to let his tears flow.

Jayden curled his lips slightly and teased, “Why are you crying now?”

Kevin wiped his face and knew that his control over his emotion was deteriorating with his advancing age too. He said, “I don’t want to cry, but I can’t stop myself.”

Jayden was at death’s door, and his mind had transcended everything, “Aren’t humans bound to face this at some point or other?”

It was the natural law of life and death. It was something nobody could alter.
