Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 116: Touching His Heartstrings

Once arrived at the hospital, Samuel was sent to the examination room.

Because Dolores mood was so unstable, the doctor didn't let her in.

She leaned against the wall of the corridor; without the support of the wall she might not have been able to stand.

Matthew sat on the chair at the side, not persuading or comforting her.

After seeing the blood on Samuel's face, she was already on the verge of collapsing and now even a small matter could make her completely collapse. Suddenly the door of the examination room opened and the doctor walked out. He took off his mask and asked, "Who is the family member?"

"I am."

Dolores walked over quickly and asked anxiously, "Is he okay?"

"Superficial wound, he knocked his head somewhere which caused the bleeding. I have cleaned the wound and his face needs to be iced for a bit to calm the swelling. I will prescribe the medicine; you can take it from the first floor. You can take him home."

"Thank you. Thank you." Dolores repeatedly thanked him and ran into the examination room. Samuel was lying on the bed and the blood on his face was already cleaned. His face was still swollen, five fingers printed clearly on it with bandage on his forehead. He was awake.

Seeing Dolores, he called, "Mommy!"

"Samuel!" Dolores rushed over to hold his hand. Fortunately, he was okay.

She stretched out her hand with teary eyes and gently held his face, stroking his cheek with her thumb in distress, "Thank God! You are okay."

"Nothing will happen to me." Samuel reached out to wipe the tears that fell from Dolores eyes, "Mommy, don't cry, I am completely fine."

Dolores lowered her head and buried her face in his embrace, her shoulders trembling slightly.

She let out a muffled whimper.

Matthew stood at the door of the examination room, looking at them.

He had never seen Dolores cry like this, sobbing and swallowing her tears.

She could only swallow her tears, not daring to cry loudly for the fear of affecting Samuel.

His heartstrings seemed to have been touched suddenly.

His eyes looked deep as he looked at them

Samuel made the 'OK' gesture with his fingers at Matthew at the door.

He smiled.

Matthew also smiled and responded with the same gesture.

Then he walked in, "We can go back now."

Dolores lowered her head, wiped her face and then picked up Samuel, "Come on, Mommy will take you home."

Samuel hugged her around the neck, feeling her warmth.

When they arrived on the first floor, Matthew went to get the medicine. Suddenly, the mobile phone in his pocket rang. It was a message from Boyce.

He clicked to see the message: [Watch the news.]

Then there was a link to a news article.

He clicked it open.

It contained a large eye-catching picture of the scene of rescuing Samuel in that village. The title reads: City B's jewelry tycoon, the Herbert siblings kidnap five-year-old child to blackmail!

With the internet so fast, as long as there's a little disturbance and someone uploaded it on the internet, it was bound to spread soon, especially if it was about the rich and powerful bullying the common people.

This kind of news was easily going to attract attention, especially because the victim was a five-year-old child.

The blood on Samuel's face in the photo stirred up a lot of people's pity.

Including those arranged by Abbott, the comments were all one-sided.

[The Herbert family bullied a child, was their conscience eaten by dogs?]

[In this society, being rich and powerful means that you can rely on your money and bully even a child? Why didn't he die? People like him should be run over with cars as soon as they go out.] [They must be severely punished, should not be dealt with lightly just because they are rich. Two adults bullying a child? They should be shot]

The comments are intense.

Some people deliberately leaded, ignoring why Herbert family would go after a child, only focusing on the fact that they bullied a child.

Children are weak and people's hearts are naturally biased towards them.

The corners of his lips were curled up slightly. The Herbert family must have seen it by now, right? He thought.

In the Herbert family...

Smash!

Except for the sounds of things being smashed in the living room, no other voice could be heard.

The whole living room was silent.

Landon had smashed everything in the living room.

The ground was messy.

Sampson and Maria stood trembling at the door.

They had never seen Landon so angry.

He shook with anger as he pointed at the Herbert siblings standing by the door with his fingers, "You, you both are very capable, but only capable of causing trouble!"

At the side, Warner was holding Camilla back, not letting her go forward. Landon was so angry; it was obvious that whoever went forward was to become cannon fodder.

He was also disappointed with his younger siblings.

Sharing responsibility as a family only brought trouble.

This time, the Herbert family's reputation was ruined.

It would have been stranger if Landon had not been angry.

"You both! Get lost from here! Herbert family will not have people like you who can accomplish nothing and ruin everything!" Landon's chest rose and fell heavily.

"We are also good for the family..."

Landon grabbed the telephone on the table and threw it at Maria who was talking.

"Shut up!"

"Good for the family?" Landon trembled with anger, "First, you got engaged in the Nelson family but because you were not capable, he broke off the engagement. Now because of you, the Herbert family is cursed by everyone and you still have the guts to say that you are good for the family?!"

Maria had not avoided in time and the phone head hit her on her right arm. She held it painfully, "We were really doing it for the family's good."

"Okay, okay, okay. You say! Tell me how it was for the good of the family." Landon sat down in a chair.

He was tired after the anger.

"We kidnapped the child because his mother was the woman Sampson liked. If we had threatened the mother to marry Sampson after kidnapping the child, then I would still have been able to marry Matthew, just like it was originally planned. Would this not have been good for the Herbert family?"

"That was it?" Landon said. His face flushed and his voice turned bone-chilling with ridicule, "What do you take Matthew Nelson for? Because his current woman gets married to someone else, he will just come back to marry you?"

He really wanted to break open her head and see what was in her mind.

"Are you drunk? Even if all the women in this world die, he will still not marry you. Didn't you see his decisiveness on the day he broke the engagement? He stabbed a knife into your heart so easily. If he liked you even a little bit, he would not have looked so determined."

"No, no..." Maria refused to admit, "As long as that woman marries someone else, Matthew will be definitely willing to be engaged to me."

"Wake up! Stop dreaming and exploiting people! Can't you see that you provoked his anger?" Warner had been in the business world long enough to be somewhat familiar with Matthew.

He is not easy to push around.

And to attack one of his people?

It was like looking for death!

"Are you saying that this news leaked because of him?" Sampson, who had not spoken until now, seemed to understand what his brother meant.

In the village, Boyce had been very nice to them and had let them come back.

It turned out to be a back hand.

Warner snorted coldly, "How else do you think the public opinion was overwhelming in just two three hours. Also, if no one was working on spreading this secretly, would things have been revealed to this point?"

He pointed to the headline on the news, "Look, every word every sentence is directed towards the Herbert family."

Landon's anger had cooled off a bit at this moment. He had already known that this was done purposefully by someone; otherwise the news would not have spread so quickly.

Now, he had to pay a visit to the Nelson family.

Seeing the pair of his stupid worry-free children, he became angry, "What am I getting angry at you two for? You both don't even have one-tenth of Warner's sense. You make trouble for me to clean up every day."0000
