Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap Chapter 500 He Was Afraid That He Would Hurt Her

As Armand Bernie heard Abbott Baron’s report that Jeffery Harris had come, he sneered, “Do he think
he will be forgiven in this way?”

Matthew Nelson sat at his desk in silence, seemingly not expecting that Jeffery would take the initiative
to admit it. Such a move was obviously showing a goodwill towards him.

Jeffery was old-fashioned and he valued his reputation. The move to retreat was brilliant and put him in
a difficult position, yet ruthlessness made him to be more humane.

Boyce Shawn caught a glimpse at Armand as he didn’t agree with Armand’s statement which the
reason Jeffery took the initiative to admit that was to reconcile. He looked at Matthew, “It’s better to
meet him, after all he is Dolores Flores’s …”

Even if you didn’t think for others, you’ve to think for Dolores.

“She left because she didn’t want you to be embarrassed, so you should also think for her.”

Even if he was unwilling to admit it, this relationship wouldn’t be erased as Jeffery was Dolores’s uncle.

Surely Matthew could think of it since Boyce was also clear about the reasoning. He just couldn’t
overcome the setbacks.

How could he just let go of the enmity of killing his mother? Because of Jeffery, he had regretted for the
rest of his life.

This was a dead end, there will be a trace there and it would never disappear even after a long time.

Jeffery was dressed in plain clothes and Marina Lee helped him in. It wasn’t a long time after, but it
seemed to be a lifetime ago when they met again as there were too many changes and everything has
been so different.



Marina helped him to sit on the sofa and whispered, “Call me when you leave, I’ll be waiting for you
outside.”

Jeffery said, “Well.”

Marina lowered her head and went out of the office. There was nothing she could say to Matthew due
to this current situation, so she didn’t greet him.

After the office door was closed, the space became quiet. Then Jeffery was the one who broke the
deadlock first, “Noah Harris has quit the entertainment industry and took part in the army. He must not
have come to see you.”

Sean Lee who knew the ins and outs was shameless in coming out to see anyone.

“I’m here not to justify anything and not to plead with you. What I did deserves retribution and
punishment, I won’t shirk it.”

It wasn’t a coincidence as Sean went to the army and he admitted everything. This was the plan that he
made for himself. His relationship with Sean was always bad, thus outsiders weren’t clear about Sean’s
identity. There are a few of his confidant since he had been in power for so many years, so it wasn’t
difficult to get Sean in. Moreover, Sean didn’t involve in the army as his son. Even if he made a big
mistake after that, it wouldn’t affect Sean.

He did this because he didn’t want the Harris family to fall because of him.

Sean went there willingly as he was clear that Jeffery must be punished accordingly in order to put this
matter to rest. Hence, he joined the army to carve out a niche for the Harris family so that Jeffery had
no worries, stood up and admitted everything.



Jeffery knew he couldn’t blame or hate anyone. Although he was unaware of it, he had made mistake
after all. Even if he just intended to arrest Victoria Forbis and didn’t want to kill her, she had died in the
end because of him.

He had an unshirkable responsibility!

“Whether it’s imprisonment or disgracement, I’ve no complaints, I just want to see her once.” When he
spoke, he didn’t raise his head. Until the last word, he just lifted his head to look at Matthew.

He hated Victoria, but he had never intended to kill her. If he wanted to kill her, he would have done so
when he imprisoned her twenty years ago. He wouldn’t have waited until now.

The only thing he regretted was that he had stopped Jolene Harris from being stayed with the man she
loved. He didn’t know Jolene would be so stubborn and was still being unwilling after marrying Jayden
Nelson. He had no idea that Jayden would indulge her in such an absurd way, let her to find a woman
and conceal everyone to give birth to an illegitimate son with Stanley Lennon. He never thought that
the person he had hated for almost half of his life was all caused by his sister.

Word like ‘sorry’ wasn’t enough to make up for anything, so he wouldn’t say it.

Jolene not only harmed other’s lives, she had done it to him too. But what could he say? What could he
say in his defence?

By chance the person was Jolene whom he had adored since he was a kid. He deserved it and he
couldn’t blame anyone else.

Matthew faced towards the floor-to-ceiling window with one arm casually resting on the desk, leaving
only half of his outline. No one could pry into his expression, his thoughts and his heart. Even his tone
was emotionless, “I don’t know where she is either, she had left more than a month ago.”



Jeffery opened her mouth in disbelief, “You just let her go? Don’t you like her a lot?”

He cared about Dolores so much before. He was willing to make an enemy of him and was even
fearless to the trap that he and Eddie Chambers had set up together.

Matthew slowly turned his head, the chill seeping out made people to be afraid even without showing
any expression, “What else? Let her watch two of us to kill each other?”

Wasn’t that another kind of cruelty?

Jeffery was suddenly speechless.

He couldn’t say a word. Whether she admitted it or not, he was still her uncle and Matthew was her
husband. Whose side would she be on?

Who was the one she expected to die?

He held the arm of the sofa and slowly stood up. He looked at Matthew and said word by word in a
pleading tone, “It’s all my fault. Please let her come back.”

At the end he said, “I’ll admit it myself for what I did. There is no need for anyone to involve in it.”

If he turned himself in, they wouldn’t cut each other’s throats and Dolores wouldn’t have to feel guilty in
front of Matthew. He would fix the mistake he made himself.

“I know you definitely don’t want to see me. This is the last time I appear in front of you.” After he
finished saying, he walked slowly towards the door. He was sent to the hospital in time, so there is no
sequela. It was just that his health was much worse than before and his legs weren’t as nimble as
before.



As he opened the door, Marina heard the sound and came over to help him hurriedly, “Why don’t you
call me?”

“I’m not paralyzed, I can still walk myself.” Jeffery had been proud in his life, but he had lost everything
when he was old.

Marina sighed as she knew that he was annoyed with himself. She hated Jolene as her selfishness had
harmed so many people.

If it wasn’t Jolene, Jeffery wouldn’t have become like this.

In Marina’s opinion, everything was Jolene’s fault, but she didn’t dare to tell in front of her husband.
Even so, Jolene was still his sister and he still cared about her, just as he cared that Dolores was
Jolene’s child.

If he was indifferent, why would he have to suffer?

Jeffery who had left seemed to be trying to prove to Matthew that he was telling the truth as he turned
himself in, bringing along with Declan. He was clear about Matthew’s character as he wouldn’t let go of
anyone who involved in kidnapping.

Thus he did it for Matthew, not to show goodwill in purpose, but to make Dolores to face him without
guilt.

Even though he had turned himself in, the police wouldn’t give the verdict so quickly as they still have
to get evidence and carry out investigation.

Matthew wasn’t soft-hearted because of his words and he didn’t feel the pleasure of revenge even if
Jeffery might lose his reputation as he turned himself in. His feelings now were complicated and even
contradictory.



He wondered in his mind whether they would be able to embrace each other without any distractions
when he did see Dolores.

He was afraid that he would hurt her.

He was also afraid that she would have issues with him because of Jeffery’s surrender.

It was a gap. No matter how it was resolved, there would be a scar between them and no one would
dare to mention it or touch it, so they would become cautious all the times.

During the period when Jeffery was under investigation, he was thoroughly paying attention to his work.
He asked Abbott to return villa and bring a few sets of clean clothes to the office. When he was tired,
he rested in the office without going back.

This kind of life was fulfilling. Although it was somewhat self-abusive, it was a way to forget the things
that bothered him and the person who made his heart ache for a while.

He kept calm until he overlooked an invitation card that made him to be agitated. It wasn’t because of
the card or something he was interested in, but was because of the person on it.
