Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap Chapter 726 Do You Think I Would Believe You

Boyce looked over at him, his expression was totally blank, he was really in the dark about Theresa’s
arrival in City B.

He recalled Theresa’s facial expression and her tone of voice, it all seemed like she knew about what
Elizabeth wanted from them.

If that’s not the case, how would Armand not know that she had come to City B.

Why didn’t she want to tell Armand?

Even Boyce felt extremely anxious for Armand, he had finally earned Theresa’s forgiveness and she
even gave him a chance to start over. Now with the obstacle of infertility, it would be difficult to deal with
Elizabeth later.

It was naturally for an elderly to have such traditional mind-set, although, there were also many young
people in this age that found it hard to accept a childless marriage.

A child would be an important bond in a matrimony.

When two people have a child in common, it would bring them more closely together.

“Sigh-”

Boyce had unconsciously let out a sigh.

Armand fixed his eyes on him, “What’s with you? Did a conflict arise between you and Jasmine? Or
have you not settled things with Wendy?”

“Why would you think this is about me?” Boyce looked at him with full of pity.

“Why did you sigh then?” Armand couldn’t see that Boyce was worried for him.



Boyce ignored him and knocked on the door.

He’d understand everything once he met Theresa.

Jasmine was in the kitchen with Coral, and everyone else at home were either elders or children.
Jessica Lennon didn’t have the chance to bond much with the two children when she returned, she was
hugging the two kids while they talked.

She got up and opened the door.

“Boyce…”

She was about to welcome Boyce home when she discovered Armand who was beside him. She
couldn’t help but freeze in place, but she managed to recover rather quickly and turned to Boyce.

Didn’t she say not to let Armand know that she was here?

Boyce shrugged his shoulders and acted nonchalantly, “I didn’t tell him, he was the one who insisted on
following me back to the villa for dinner. I didn’t have a choice.”

Theresa understood their relationship in and out, they were even closer than biological brothers, she
clutched the door hard, “Do you think I would believe what you said?”

“If you don’t trust me, you can ask Armand if he was the one who insisted on tagging along.” Boyce
nudged Armand, “Talk then, go on and explain yourself.”

All Armand did was to stare at Theresa without uttering a single word.

He finally realized why Boyce urged him to come to the villa.

He ruminated on why Theresa left him out of the notice on her arrival here.



“Have you been to the hospital?” he tried to conceal his panic.

Theresa didn’t make a sound.

Boyce slipped sideways into the house tactfully.

Armand gripped Theresa’s wrist and pulled her straight to the wicker chair that was placed on the lawn,
“Tell me, why didn’t you let me know you were here in City B?”

“I want to pay the two children a visit, can’t I?” Theresa sat herself down on the chair, with her head
tilted upwards at him.

“Do you think I’m stupid? If you were here to only see the kids, why is there a need to hide this from
me?” Armand contained his anger.

He was mad at her for not telling him the truth.

Theresa continued to feign ignorance, “It’s not that I’m hiding it from you, I just haven’t had the time to
tell you.”

“Haha-”

Armand snickered, “The last we contacted was not too long ago, judging from the time, you were
already in City B when we talked, no?”

Theresa paused for a moment and replied, “I just wanted to surprise you, can’t I?”

Armand closed his eyes and suppressed all his emotions, he then sat across the other rattan chair and
pondered deeply before he asked, “You…know something do you?”

He didn’t believe that it was a surprise, if it was meant to be one, she would’ve done it earlier. In that
case, Boyce had no need to be the bridge here.



“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Theresa turned away and averted Armand’s gaze.

Armand caught her hand and held it in his palm, “Have you heard something from my grandma?”

Things wouldn’t have been this abnormal otherwise. Now that he thought of it, the moment she rang
him up was when he had just finished his conversation with the old lady. Was this all a coincidence?

“You wanted to pay her a visit as well, and overheard what she said, am I right?” Armand held her hand
tight, “Theresa, you have to believe me, I don’t need a child, as long as you…”

“You’re fine with it, but what about your grandma? Does having an offspring not matter to you?”
Theresa shouted all of a sudden, but in the next moment, she was completely deflated, “Armand…”

“You don’t need to say anything else.” Armand slid off from his chair and knelt in front of Theresa
holding her legs, “I really don’t need a child, you have to believe me.”

“I do, but what do we do with your grandma?” Theresa bowed her head down and looked at him, her
eyesight was going blur, tears started to well up in her eyes, “I don’t want to drag you down…”

“What are you talking about?” Armand asked emotionlessly, “It’s not your fault that we can’t have a
child, it’s me, it’s my fault!”

Theresa felt overwhelmed and she didn’t want this to continue.

“Armand…”

“Don’t think about telling me that we should break up, it wasn’t easy for us to start all over again. How
could say such hurtful things so easily?”

“I’ll face my grandma and convince her, once everything is settled, I’ll take you to see her. Don’t go
thinking about the unnecessary, alright?” Armand held her hand all the more tighter, he was afraid of



losing her, “I know that the pressure is huge on you, so leave it all to me, I just need you to give me
some time.”

Theresa took a deep breath and wiped her tears away, she said calmly, “I understand, everyone’s
waiting in the house, it won’t be too good if we stayed out here any longer.”

Armand nodded, the both of them gathered their composure and went back inside.

The food had already been served, Matthew Nelson wasn’t at home, so Jayden Nelson was the man of
the house. He made his own decision and requested Coral to open two bottles of wine. Jessica was
released from prison today, and both Matthew and Dolores Flores weren’t around. He represented
them in giving Jessica a warm welcome back home.

Even though she wasn’t Dolores’ biological mother, but she was the one who raised her up all her life
after all.

They were considered as family if her past had not been brought up.

“I’ll give Matthew a call later in the evening, your release is good news, I’m sure Dolores would be
happy to hear this too.” Jayden said.

Jessica was filled with guilt, what she did was bad, and it was nothing to be proud of. She stroked
Amanda Nelson’s hair and cherished this moment, “I’m grateful to everyone for not giving up on me, I’ll
lead a good life from now on.”

“We’re not family if we paid any mind to that.” Jayden explained.

Kevin Forbis went along as well, he sat next to Jayden and raised his glass, “Let’s have a toast to your
freedom.”



Jessica was a lightweight, but she cooperated, “Thank you.”

Kevin introduced himself, “I’m Matthew’s uncle, we’re considered as relatives, so don’t worry about it.
Everyone’s living in the same villa, we’re a family.”

Jessica smiled.

“Only Daddy and Mommy are absent today.” Andrew Nelson stared at the table full of people and
voiced in disappointment.

They had suddenly left for overseas, grandfather told him that father and mother went travelling to
other countries. School had just begun for him and his sister, and his mother was still pregnant, how
could they possibly be travelling? He didn’t take a word of what he was told and was deeply troubled
inside.

Jessica caressed his head and comforted the child silently.

Armand who loved to chatter was completely quiet at the table, Boyce and Jasmine were still too.

He had introduced himself when Jessica returned, and everyone knew each other already.

The elderly didn’t have much to talk about as well, with only Matthew not present.

Dinner was a pleasant one, when it was over, Armand said his goodbyes to the seniors. He told them
that his grandma was admitted, and that he had to go back to the hospital.

He was being filial, no one would’ve said anything to stop him.

Theresa helped to clean up the dishes with no thoughts of talking to Armand, she figured it was best if
the both of them could use this time to calm down. Nevertheless, Armand called out to her, “Theresa,
can you give me a ride? I’m not driving today.”
