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

The room was dark, and there was a back figure behind the door. Amanda could see the face of the dark figure with the light of the living room diffused into the room.

She tightened her hand that was holding the door handle. She thought she was tough enough to face her parents calmly. However, when she really saw them, the emotions involuntarily welled up in her heart. She sobbed, “Dad.”

Matthew did not want to blame her for anything. Amanda would be mature and grow up after she had this experience.

“Dad, I was wrong,” Amanda hurled herself into Matthew's arms. She did not want to cry in front of her parents at first, but she could not control her emotions.

She could not control herself. Memories of her sadness and bitterness this year came flooding back like a movie replayed in her mind. It was so clear and profound.

Matthew patted her on the back and said in a low voice, “It's my bad.”

The biggest mistake of his life was trusting Stanford. He was confident that Amanda's outstanding would make Stanford fall in love with her. However, he had made such a big mistake.

“No, it was my own choice,” Amanda wiped her face.

She could not blame anyone. She was willing to admit her mistakes and also to bear the consequences. Moreover, she did not want her parents to blame themselves.

Matthew raised his hand to wipe the tears left in the corners of her eyes. He was grateful within himself that Amanda was alright.

Dolores sat on the side of the bed and faced the window while her back to the door. She was in ordinary cloth instead of pyjamas, so did Matthew. It seemed that they did not sleep at all and had been waiting for her.

Matthew and Dolores did not open the door immediately after hearing the knock on the door because they blamed themselves for not protecting Amanda well. They hesitated to open the door because they did not dare to face Amanda and were afraid they could not control their emotions when they saw Amanda.

Amanda looked at the figure sitting on the side of the bed that was concealed in the darkness. Although she could not see it clearly, she could vaguely see Dolores's slightly trembled shoulder.

Amanda went over, stood at the side of the bed, and sobbed, “Mom.”
