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

Amanda heard someone walked in. She knew it was Stanford, but she didn’t turn around.

Stanford stared at Amanda’s back and walked into the meeting room. Stanford turned and looked at Amanda when he walked to the seat opposite her.

It was a familiar face.

Stanford called her name subconsciously, “Amanda.”

Amanda looked up, and she looked expressionless, “Mr. James.”

It was a distant and cold appellation.

Stanford sat opposite Amanda, “Are we that distant now?”

Amanda smiled, “Did we ever got close? We’ve been sleeping on the same bed for three years. You never understand me, and I never got to step into your heart. Weren’t we distant all along?”

Stanford couldn’t help but stared at Amanda, “Last time…”

“The reason I’m here today wasn’t because of what happened last time. Let’s talk about the current,” Amanda pushed the iPad she brought to Stanford. It was showing a piece of breaking news.

The Aegis Security Services announced its bankruptcy just when J&Y Group invested the last amount of capital into it.

It meant every penny J&Y Group invested was wasted.

Of course, it was only how it looked like.

The money would be transferred to RM Group in another way.

They both knew about how it would end. Stanford looked calm. He took a glance at the new, then raised his head and stared at Amanda, “I owe you that.”

An emotion finally appeared in Amanda’s calm eyes. She asked, “Was it only money that you’ve owed me?”

Stanford remained silent.

He slowly clenched his fists on the table.

Amanda stood up, “You’ve owed me my life. No, two lives. That fire was supposed to kill two people, but I survived it. Stanford, you can never pay back what you owe me.”
