Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap Chapter 372 Read Between The Lines

As Jeffery entered the door, Marina was already waiting for him with his bedroom slippers.

Jeffery stopped and asked immediately, “What happened today?”

“Come in and we’ll talk.” Marina placed the slippers in front of Jeffery.

Jeffery scoffed and was eager to listen to her explanation. How difficult was it for her to invite Dolores
out for dinner? She could not accomplish even such a simple task!

He wore the slippers, walked to the sofa, and sat down before asking, “Go ahead. What is it?”

Marina had pondered since she came back from the clothing shop as to how she should broach this
matter with Jeffery. But now she was stumped.

“So out with it!” Jeffery yelled as his patience ran out.

“I noticed that the kids were doing fine and I couldn’t bear…” Marina said.

Jeffery frowned deeply and asked, “And that’s why you didn’t invite her out?”

Marina quickly replied, “Yes. You should know about Matthew’s character. Aren’t you concerned that
his opinion on you take a drastic turn when he knows that you are plotting against him?”

Marina knew that Jeffery was very concerned about Matthew. She also knew that eighty percent of that
concern was due to Jolene.

“I feel that we should come clean and talk to Matthew about Dolores. Beyond that, we should not
interfere…”

“Do you know that Dolores knows how to make the Gambiered Canton Gauze?” Jeffery lost his
patience and interrupted Marina. He already knew about Marina’s points and had considered them.



Marina was stunned when she heard that Dolores knew how to make the Gambiered Canton Gauze.
Wasn’t this the protected family secret of the Forbis family? How could they have taught Dolores?

“How do you know about this?” Marina could not believe what she just heard.

Jeffery heaved a sigh and said, “The person whom I sent to White city said. Don’t you think that I know
the implications? Matthew is so intelligent. Don’t you think that he would know about Dolores’s
knowledge of the Gambier Canton Gauze? Or perhaps you think that Dolores could learn all these
secretly without him knowing?”

Marina glared with her eyes wide open and exclaimed, “You mean that he knows?”

Jeffery was certain at this point that Matthew knew. Matthew did not detest Dolores because he really
liked her. Furthermore, Dolores gave birth to two lovely children for him. Even if he was uncomfortable
with it, he would not blame nor be angry with Dolores.

It was because Jeffery knew about this that he made the decision to drive a wedge between Dolores
and Matthew. He could not accept that Matthew’s woman would be close with Victoria.

“Then, what should we do now?” Marina thought that all she had to do was to convince Matthew to
have Dolores stay away from Victoria. But now it appeared to be more complicated.

Matthew knew about the relationship between Dolores and Victoria but he did not pursue the matter.

Jeffery scoffed, “He is no longer himself! To think that he went back to the Nelson Mansion with that
woman.” Jeffery heaved heavily as he was furious.

Marina held onto his hands and comforted, “Calm down, your health is more important.”

He looked at Marina and replied furiously, “If I don’t stop this, he would soon forget who his mother is. I
will not let that Victoria charm and take away Jolene’s son!”



In his eyes, Victoria had already taken Jayden away from Jolene. Now he could never accept that
Jolene’s son would take Victoria as his woman! This was his absolute bottom line.

Marina knew that this matter was beyond compromise. With a sigh, she knew that Jeffery could not get
past this mental knot and she forced herself to accept it. This was the only way that she could support
her husband.

“I’m sorry for this. I ruined your plans due to a moment’s folly…”

“It’s okay.” Jeffery closed his eyes and he had to replan this.

Matthew had expressed himself very clearly today and now the opportunity to act had closed as
Matthew would now be prepared. Any plan of his must be direct and effective. He was in no rush.

On the other end.

Dolores was sitting in the front passenger seat waiting for Matthew.

“You drank?” She asked Matthew as soon as he entered the car.

“A little.” Matthew adjusted his collar and released two buttons.

Dolores exited the car and walked over to the driver’s side and said, “Come, I’ll drive.”

Matthew grinned, “You’re worried?”

Dolores took over the car keys and said sternly, “Drink and don’t drive, don’t you know?”

Matthew looked at her stern expression and laughed, “I’m not drunk.”

“Even then.” Dolores was insistent.



Matthew exited the car, swapped seats with Dolores, and then whispered into her ear, “The wife is
always right.”

Dolores leaned away, started the engine, and glared at him, “Glib tongue. You must be guilty of
something.”

Matthew knew that something was amiss and there seemed to be a hidden message.

“Out with it. When did you meet that Ms. Chambers at the hotel and what did the two of you do after
that?”
