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

Amanda scoffed and said, “Regret? What use is his regret if I had died?”

George was stumped by all her questions and stammered, “But… but, you both were once in love…”

Amanda felt that it was ridiculously amusing. Had she not said enough?

“George, are you a fool, or are you trying to act like a fool to me? Yes, I once loved him but he used me for his schemes. Now I no longer have any feelings towards him. That’s why from then on there is no longer love between us.” She had to suppress her anger to get these words out.

George understood what Amanda meant. However, he came to attempt to convince Amanda to reconcile with his brother. Hence he had to use another point of view. No one would forgive Stanford if things were considered from Amanda’s angle.

The only option was to say that Stanford made a mistake and now he regretted his mistake and was willing to change. Everyone deserved a second chance.

“Please give my brother another chance. He’s injured and misses you. Can you go and see him?” George pleaded.

Amanda sternly refused, “Impossible! Go away!”

“Can’t you visit him on the count of me coming all this way to look for you?” George pleaded again. There would still be a chance for Stanford if she was willing to visit him.

“Please leave.” Amanda turned to walk towards the courtyard.

George became agitated and said, “What will it take for you to give my brother a chance?”

“All his regrets cannot take away my pain and bring back my child! Why should I forgive him? And you’d better leave now or I will scream for help!” Amanda was at the limit of her tolerance. There was no need for any more explanations.

Joan was standing nearby observing their interaction. He did not intend to eavesdrop on Amanda’s personal affairs. He was just worried that she would be hurt. He walked over when he saw George grabbing her arm.
