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

It was his mother who kept the house and guarded him alone during the days he went out to make his way.

What did she get in the end?

Enoch had nothing to say to his son's questioning. He had also grieved the death of his ex-wife. After all, they had shared a bed and she had given him a son.

"Stanford, for what happened before, it's all because I am sorry for your mother and you. For the sake of me being your father, give your brother a job so he doesn't have to drift around out there." Enoch said humbly.

Stanford let out a laugh, "Is that why you called me here when you said you were sick?"

"Stanford, at least half of the company is your brother's. Are you going to keep it all to yourself?" Enoch stopped saying humbly. Obviously, even if he had humbled himself, he was still indifferent!

Stanford stood up, "Father, you'd better get well to live a long life."

With that, he didn't bother to look at Enoch but stepped towards the door.

"Stanford, don't you go too far!"

Enoch's face reddened with anger, "I'm your father!"

"So?" Stanford stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at him, "So I have to take care of your son?"

Enoch clenched his hands and kept shaking, "You've got the company. All I'm asking is that you let your brother have a proper job. Why do you have to be so cruel to him?"

Stanford walked back over to the bedside and looked at him condescendingly, "Your company was already facing bankruptcy at the time. It was my mother's compensation that filled the gap so the company didn't go bust. I was cruel to him? I remember when Alyssa lost $150 and you all said I took it. How did you treat me? I want to ask you, did I take the money?"

He had not long been in the house at the time and Alyssa said she had lost the money, "There were no outsiders in the house either, and nothing was ever lost. The living expenses I had in the drawer were missing $150 for no reason. I don't know what's going on."

She didn't say it explicitly, but what she meant by that was that he was an outsider. She hadn't lost money before, but when he came to the house, she lost it. What she meant was that he had taken the money.

Enoch also decided that he had taken it and told him to admit he was wrong and to give it to her.

He said he hadn't taken it.

But Enoch didn't believe him and demanded that he admit his mistake and hand over the money he had taken.
