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

Amanda opened the door and it was Joan. She was shocked and asked, “How come you’re here?”

‘How did he know that they were staying there?’ She thought.

Joan seemed nervous when he asked her, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” Amanda was puzzled.

“Then how come I received a message from your brother that you’re in danger? He even told me the address and asked me to come to rescue you…” Then Joan seemed to realize something.

Amanda was shocked by this. How did Joshua know her travel details and address?

“Come in.” She said. He had rushed over from so far away and she should not keep him waiting outside.

Joan entered the room and she quickly poured a glass of water for him and said, “Have a seat.”

Amanda went into the bathroom and called Joshua, “What’s happening?”

“What?” Joshua quickly realized what was happening and asked, “You’ve met Joan?”

He leaned back into his seat and placed his feet on the table and said, “How can I be at ease knowing that you brought grandma out? Of course, I needed to know your itinerary. Now that you’re in B city, you may meet someone that you should not. I asked Joan to go, firstly because I am helping him as he likes you. I’m giving both of you a chance to get to know each other better. Secondly, I’m helping you in case you’re conned again.” Joshua explained.

“Joshua, I will settle my own things…” Amanda snapped back at him.

“Don’t refuse me if you don’t want mom and dad to worry,” Joshua said mischievously.

Amanda was speechless. She could not rebut him.
