Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap Chapter 454 A Man Is Bitter But Not Content

Eddie turned around to look at Jeffery. “What’s wrong if I do like her?”

Jeffery panted. “It seems our relationship should end.”

“Can’t I have the right to like a woman?”

Jeffery was silent.

He didn’t forbid Eddie to like his sister, but he felt quite awkward. They had been best friends for so
many years. He had thought that Eddie just treated Jolene as his own younger sister.

Much to his surprise, Eddie had that kind of mind...

“A man is bitter but not content.”

Eddie knew what it meant. However, he suffered a lot that the knot in his heart couldn’t be resolve at
all. He had a crush on Jolene when he was young. His yearning for her had become the obsession that
he couldn’t gain her heart.

He always believed that if Jolene could have married him, she wouldn’t pass away so early. They
would lead happy life. At least, he loved her and could care and dote her.

“Good that you understand it. You’d better behave yourself. You are so old now. If your wife dumped
you and your family was broken, others would mock you.” Jeffery turned around and walked out of the
study.

Sitting in the car, he felt so depressed. The adjutant asked, “Would you like to go home?”

“Go to the cemetery.” Jeffery started missing Jolene. He wanted to visit her.



The adjutant drove towards the cemetery in suburbia. Once, Jeffery mentioned the cemetery, the
adjutant knew whom he was going to visit.

“Wait. I’ll get a bouquet in the florist shop first. Otherwise, there’s nothing in her graveyard. She would
be quite lonely.”

The adjutant turned around in the intersection ahead.

Jeffery didn’t buy the chrysanthemums. Instead, he bought a bouquet of iris proantha, which was
Jolene’s favorite when she was alive.

Holding the bouquet, Jeffery sat back in the car. When the adjutant was starting the engine, Jeffery
cast a casual glance out of the window, only to find Victoria and Dolores on the street with two kids,
followed by a few bodyguards.

“We can’t stay outside for a long time. You would be too exhausted. Let’s go home after buying the
cake.” Victoria was worried about Dolores’s strength.

Dolores agreed.

The two kids suddenly wanted to eat the thousand-layered mousse cake. Dolores didn’t think it would
take a long time. She also wanted to have a walk with the kids.

“I’ll go get the cake. Please wait for me here.” Victoria entered the cake store.

Jeffery couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but he could see that they looked quite happy.
Immediately, he withdrew his gaze. Looking down at the flowers in his arms, he stroked them gently.

He muttered to himself, “Your son is a big trouble.”



The car roared away. Jeffery still didn’t look back. He only bent down his head while looking at the
flowers in his arms.

Victoria came out with the cake. “Let’s go home.”

“Yeah! Let’s go home for cake!” Simona said excitedly.

Victoria smiled. “Silly girl, do you still have a space for it?”

“Of course. I have,” Simona immediately emphasized as if she couldn’t be allowed to eat it.

“Let’s get in the car.”

Dolores stood in front of the door and let the kids get in first. Simona seemed to haven’t enjoyed herself
outside yet. “There seems to be something fun at night as well.”

Victoria patted her on her little butt. “I’ll take you guys out for fun tomorrow.”

“Will Mommy come with us?” Simona turned around and looked at Dolores. She blinked with expectant.

“Isn’t it the same if I come out with you? Don’t you know there’s a little baby in Mommy’s belly?”

Simona pouted. Although she wanted to go out with her mother, she understood that there was a little
baby in her mother’s belly. Her father told them that if they didn’t take good care of the baby, the baby
would leave. In order to stop the baby from leaving, Simona decided not to come out with her mother.

Back to the villa, Victoria took the cake and got it cut into pieces. Each of them ate a small piece. Since
it was getting late, they couldn’t eat too much.

Victoria was afraid that they would get choked, so she poured glasses of juice for each child, took them
to the table, and put the glasses in front of them.



“That’s a pretty small piece.” Simona gazed at the cake on the plate. She didn’t think it was enough for
her. Samuel shook his head, gave her half of his piece.

Simona smiled delightfully. “Thank you, Samuel.”

“If you got fat, you wouldn’t fit in beautiful dresses.”

Samuel gave her a blow on purpose. However, if Simona ate too much cake at night, she would get fat
for sure.

Simona snorted. “Do we have any fat family members? Daddy isn’t fat. Mommy isn’t fat. How could I be
fat? We are supposed to be a slim family.”

Samuel was speechless.

He wondered why his little sister became so sharp-tongued and could retort him.

“Okay. Go ahead.” Samuel was helpless.

“Of course, I’ll finish them. If not, I’ll leave some to Daddy.” Simona got a spoonful of cake and put it
into her mouth happily.

Seeing that Simona was licking the spoon, Samuel frowned deeply. “Your saliva would be left on it.
Who would eat it?”

“Daddy! Daddy wouldn’t mind.” The little girl was quite confident. Her father even didn’t mind her saliva
when kissing.

Victoria shook her head, thinking that Simona was truly hilarious.



Dolores nestled on the sofa, feeling a bit sleepy. Watching the kids eat at the table, she couldn’t help
curling up her lips slightly.

“You can go upstairs to sleep. I’ll take care of them.” Victoria noticed that Dolores was quite sleepy.

Dolores nodded. She didn’t feel tired or uncomfortable, but she was sleepy. She stood up. “Okay. I’ll go
take a nap.”

She walked upstairs steadily and quietly. She turned on the light, the bedroom became bright. The lilies
on the nightstand looked kind of withered.

However, she was reluctant to toss them away. Reaching out, she touched the petals, which still
emanated faint fragrance. She planned to buy another bouquet to change them some other day.

It would look more lively with a bouquet in the room.

She lay down without taking a shower. She was too sleepy to move. Tucking her into the quilt, as soon
as she lay down, she fell asleep.

At night, she heard some movements dizzily. She opened her eyes. The light in the room wasn’t on.
Moonlight fell in from the outside of the window. She saw a figure in the room.

Just waking up, she said in a hoarse tone, “You are back.”

He took off the suit jacket and walked over. “Did I wake you up?”

Dolores hummed. She woke up after hearing the movements.

She fumbled for her cell phone and took a look at the time -- it was already past two in the morning.
“Why so late?”



“I was busy with some business earlier. I’ll go take a shower. Go back to your sleep.” He came over to
stroke her cheeks, which were warm with smooth skin. He enjoyed stroking her.

Feeling tickled, Dolores turned away. Matthew smiled. “Good night.”

He turned around and walked to the bathroom. While walking, he unbuckled his belt, letting out a
cracking sound of the metal. He turned on the light after entering. Soon, Dolores heard the sound of the
running water.

She was way too sleepy. Although there were sounds, she gradually fell asleep again. However, she
faintly felt the mattress sink next to her. Her waist was wrapped by a strong arm along with a faint
fragrance from the shower gel. His cool and soft lips clung to the back of her neck. He kept kissing and
biting her gently. It didn’t hurt but tickled. Dolores mumbled, “I’m sleepy.”

“Ehn. Go ahead to sleep.” His lips didn’t leave her skin. His kisses changed to rubs.

Dolores creased her brows. She couldn’t sleep soundly at all when he was bothering her in this
way.
