Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap Chapter 853 Why Are You Here?

Jasmine was stunned by the amount of money. She was dazed for a moment.

There must be something fishy for someone to give so much money. She forced herself to calm down
and she knew that she had to inform Boyce. She looked for her cellphone and her hands trembled and
dropped the cellphone onto the ground.

She squatted to pick up the phone but the screen had shattered. She was still able to make the call but
Boyce’s cellphone had been turned off.

She frowned at the unexpected turn of events. What should she do now? What if this money brought
trouble to Boyce? She began to become flustered and her mind was in a daze. It was her carelessness
that caused this situation. What if this caused trouble for Boyce? She shuddered to think of the
consequences…

She sat on the floor in desperation and wondered who she should look for. She did not dare to do
anything rash now and needed someone with who she could discuss this. After a moment, she thought
of Dolores. Matthew was so intelligent and should know what to do in such a situation. Hence, she
gave Dolores a call.

The weather was lovely today and Dolores took her baby to the park for a stroll.

Kevin was supporting Jayden as they strolled and remarked, “Look at how time flies. More than half of
the year had passed and it’s almost the mid-autumn festival.”

Jayden looked up to the trees and indeed some of the leaves had started to turn yellow. Once winter
arrived, the Chinese New Year would come next. The leaves would grow again at every spring but
once a man had passed on, he would leave the earth forever.

He was not afraid of death but when he pondered about it, he still felt rather apprehensive.



Kevin said, “Autumn is here, every season brings its beauty and also its loneliness.”

Dolores said soon after, “The weather is also becoming colder. Uncle, you need to wear warmer
clothes.”

Kevin smiled.

Her phone began to ring and Jessica handed her cellphone to her and said, “You have a call.”

Dolores placed the child into the pram and covered the baby with a blanket. Thereafter she took over
the phone and it was Jasmine who called her. Why did Jasmine call her?

As soon as she answered the call, Jasmine said anxiously, “Dolores, I made a mistake.”

Dolores was puzzled and asked, “What happened? Calm down and explain it to me.”

Jasmine composed herself and said, “Yesterday after work I met someone who was looking for Boyce.
He gave me a box of apples for Boyce. Today when I opened it, there were no apples but instead, it
was filled with money. Dolores, what should I do? I’m so frightened now and I don’t know what I should
do.”

Dolores could understand her anxiety. Who would give Boyce so much money? Boyce just had a
promotion. Someone could be setting him up by sending him this money. It would definitely affect
Boyce if this was not handled properly.

“Have you informed Boyce? What did he say?” Dolores asked.

“His cellphone is turned off. I can’t reach him. Dolores, can you suggest what I should do?”

“Don’t panic.” Dolores pondered and then asked, “Where are you now?”

“I’m at home.” Jasmine quickly replied.



“Okay, I’ll head over to you. Wait at home for me.” Dolores said.

Jasmine acknowledged and ended the call.

She looked towards Jessica and asked, “Mom, can you take care of the baby?”

Jessica nodded and asked, “Do you have something on?”

Dolores nodded and then walked off. Jayden looked at her and said, “Drive carefully.”

Dolores thanked him for his concern. She went home to take the car keys and headed to Jasmine’s
house.

As Jasmine sat on the sofa, she occasionally would look towards the box of money and her stomach
would churn. Soon, someone knocked on the door and she went to open the door.

Dolores entered the apartment and Jasmine pointed to the box and said, “I thought that it was a box of
apples and accepted it as it wasn’t anything significant. I didn’t expect it to be…”

Dolores patted her on her shoulders and said, “This person hid the fact that it was money clearly he
knew that you would not accept it if he had said what it was.”

“Would this implicate Boyce? I wanted to inform him but his cellphone had been turned off. I ran out of
ideas and that was when I thought about you…”

Dolores asked, “Do you have any duct tape at home?”

Jasmine nodded, went to look for it, and gave it to Dolores. Dolores sealed and said, “Let’s go.”

“Where are we going?”



“Go to the police station. Are there security cameras in this apartment complex?” Dolores asked as she
picked up the box.

Jasmine nodded and replied, “Yes, it’s everywhere.”

“Okay.” She then calmly said, “Go to the management office and request to view the security videos.
Make copies of the videos of the man who brought this box to prove that you were unaware of this
situation. Then we’ll go to the police station to explain the situation.”

Jasmine agreed, “I’ll do that immediately.”

Dolores then said, “I’ll wait for you at the entrance to the complex. Come over once you’ve made
copies.”

Jasmine nodded and both of them went downstairs. Dolores placed the box of ‘apples’ in the back seat
and gave Boyce a call. Boyce’s cellphone was still turned off.

When Boyce arrived at the station this morning, he was immediately led away to be questioned. His
cellphone had been turned off to prevent him from being contacted by others.

“We all know your character but this complaint isn’t without merits. It accused you of being corrupt and
was very clear that it was your wife who was the one who accepted the money.”

“Mr. Shawn isn’t that kind of person. This is clearly a setup!” A colleague spoke up in defence of Boyce.

“Then how do you prove that it’s a setup?” The interrogator asked.

The colleague was stumped and then said, “Regardless, I definitely won’t believe that Mr. Shawn is
corrupt.”

“How about this, Mr. Shawn is not to be involved in any cases until this investigation is over…”



“Impossible.” Boyce spoke up after keeping his silence, “I have a case right now.”

“You can hand over this case to Michael.”

Michael was Boyce’s peer and now Boyce was a commissioner while Michael was still an inspector.
There was a huge difference in their status. Michael had kept his silence throughout this questioning.
However, he would not speak up for Boyce at this moment.

“I’ll ensure that this case is solved if it is assigned to me.” Michael said.

“I’m sure you’re too happy for this to happen. Perhaps you’re the one who devised this plot!” Someone
standing behind Boyce accused Michael.

“Do you have any proof? Otherwise, it’s slander.” Michael was composed and sniped back, “Don’t think
that by supporting Boyce, you can twist the facts as you wish!”

“You…”

Boyce stopped him and then said to the inspectorate, “I accept any investigations.”

He was not worried about something that he did not do.

“Okay, then this case will be assigned to Michael…” The inspectorate.

Clunk! The door to the interrogation room was opened and interrupted them.

Everyone looked towards the door and Jasmine was standing at the door hugging a box.

Boyce was surprised by her appearance and stood up from his seat. He walked over to her and asked,
“Why are you here?”



“I’m here to see you.” Jasmine looked at Boyce. On their way over, Dolores had assured her that
everything would be fine so long as she spoke the truth. There was no need to panic.

Jasmine was very calm and steady.
