Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 170: You Will Know When You Get There

Theresa said impatiently, "What the hell do you want?"

Armand took out his business card and handed it to her, "You can call me if you need anything. I will come to the store to tell you if there's any progress here. During this time, we would have to trouble you to handle the store all by yourself."

Theresa raised her eyes and looked at Armand. He looked serious. She had just come to China and she was not very familiar with it. To replace Dolores, she had to rely on them and she also wanted to know any news about them replaceing Dolores.

She reached out and took the business card that Armand handed over, "Thank you. Dolores is very nice to me. I will handle everything at the store until she comes back."

Armand nodded, wondering inwardly if he could replace a reason to stop her from leaving.

"How did you come? Do you want me to drive you?"

"I drove here." Theresa put the business card in her purse and said to him, "Goodbye."

Saying that she walked towards the car.

Armand ran a hair through his hair and sighed in frustration. Why was it so hard to strike up a conversation with her?

When he used to flirt with women before, did it still take him so much effort?

He shook his head to clear his thoughts, turned around and walked towards the elevator. The elevator stopped with a ding sound and the door opened. Just as Armand was about to walk in, the person inside made him stop in his tracks, "It's you."

His voice turned cold immediately, "What are you doing here?"

Warner opened his mouth to answer, "Whatever I am doing here doesn't have anything to do with you, right?"

The Herbert family was not as good as before, but his reputation and status were still not comparable to him as a lawyer.

Armand frowned, glanced at him indifferently and stepped into the elevator.

Warner straightened his suit and strode out.

He didn't care about Armand at all.

Armand's heart was pounding thinking that Matthew was bound to kill Maria. It was impossible for Warner to not know that his sister was locked up because of Matthew.

So, the question was, why did he come here?

To declare war on Matthew or to plead?

Armand hadn't figured it out yet. Just then, the elevator door opened and as he walked down the corridor, the entire office area was inexplicably enveloped in a dull atmosphere.

Is this because the boss was in a bad mood so the entire company suffered?

Armand's throat constricted. It was not cold but he couldn't help but shudder.

He walked to the door and knocked. When he heard the voice from inside say come in, he opened the door.

The huge office looked dull and deserted. If he hadn't seen the man sitting behind the desk, he would have thought there was no one in the office.

Armand walked in, closed the door and went to the desk, "What was Warner doing here?"

Before Matthew could answer, he guessed, "He came asking for trouble?" But thinking about Warner's behavior in the past few years, he felt that he didn't have the courage to declare war on Matthew. If Warner was capable enough, the Herbert family would not be what it was today.

Mathew raised his eyes and put a document on the table in front of Armand.

Armand picked it up and opened it. It was a letter of intent of cooperation which was not uncommon between business partners. What was strange about it was that the letter of intent was signed by Warner and included an important piece of land of the Herbert family.

The Herbert family had a good piece of land in City B, which was left by their ancestors. Although the building was abandoned, the location was good.

"He actually wants to cooperate with you to build a large shopping mall on this piece of land?" Armand felt like he had just seen the devil.

Didn't Warner regard Matthew as an enemy? But now he brought over his own land and wanted to do a business partnership with Matthew?

"I used to hear a saying: In vanity fair, one second, you fight to death. But then for profit, you can shake hands the next second. I finally saw it today. But the most important thing is, did you agree?"

"Why would I not agree?" Matthew stood up and walked to the French window, leaving a long shadow on the ground.

Today, Warner took the initiative to come to him to show his good intentions. If the Herbert family dared to involve in Maria's matter, he would finish them.

Since he knew that Dolores's disappearance was related to Maria, he had made a lot of preparations and the Herbert family was going to be the first to bear the brunt.

After all, Maria was his family. Who knew if they would or wouldn't go against him to save their reputation?

Now that Warner revealed his weakness, he could hand Maria over to Boyce and Armand. He needed time to replace out Dolores's whereabouts.

As more time passed, Matthew was going to be at more disadvantage to replace Dolores.

He didn't have the time to waste in a fight with the Herbert family.

"Giving up the rook to save the queen. It's really cruel." Armand snorted disdainfully, "Do rich families really have no actual feelings for each other?"

Armand's words were secretly aimed at Matthew.

Matthew's mother was also a part of a huge family. Her marriage with Jayden could be described as a strong alliance, but emotionally it wasn't anything that would make someone jealous. Not long after her death, Jayden married someone else.

This was also a thorn that has been stuck between the father and son since a long time.

Matthew looked at him.

Armand coughed dryly. He shouldn't have been talking about this at such a time. He straightened his face, "I and Boyce have planned everything, you don't need to worry about it. Just leave it to me and Boyce. Boyce hasn't ben idle, he tried to get Ms. Flores's whereabouts from her but she kept her mouth tightly shut."

Boyce had used many methods.

Could a woman's jealousy be so scary? Armand thought inwardly.

He didn't know that Maria was more than just jealous.

She felt that Dolores robbed Matthew and took away everything that should have belonged to her. She was loathed her and was resentful.

*Buzzing*

At this time, Matthew's mobile phone on the table vibrated. Armand took a look and said to Matthew, "It's Abbott."

Then he picked it up and handed it to Matthew.

Matthew took it and answered the call, "Mr. Nel..." Before Abbott could speak, the phone was snatched away from him, "Matthew, where are you?" 'Dolores's' voice came over immediately.

Armand stretched his head, wanting to hear what the person on the other end of the phone was saying.

Matthew glanced at him sideways and handed the phone over, "You want to take it?"

Armand gasped, shook his head quickly and said embarrassedly, "You take it, you take it."

In order to prove that he didn't want to snoop, he took a step back and distanced himself from him.

"When are you coming back? I miss you so much." At this moment, 'Dolores' stood in the hotel room drawing circles on the table with her fingers and said in an aggrieved tone, "Abbott won't let me go out to meet you. Why is he doing that?"

Matthew's face was expressionless and his tone was slightly cold, "Give the phone to him."

'Dolores' thought that Matthew was going to reprimand Abbott, so she couldn't help but feel a little proud and handed the phone over, "Hey, don't say that I didn't remind you, offending me is not good for you."

Abbott stared at her. With the same face as Dolores, how could her character be so bad?

Sure enough, she was a fake, and the quality wasn't guaranteed.

He reached out his hand to pick up the phone and put it to his ear, "Mr. Nelson."

'Dolores' didn't know what Matthew said to him, but his expressions became serious, "Yes, I understand."

And in her eyes, Matthew had scolded him. She turned around and sat on the sofa, "See? I told you that Matthew cares about me very much. You are being so disrespectful to me. Wait till I see him, I will tell him everything."

Abbott hung up the phone and said faintly, "If you want to tell him, then I won't stop you. In fact, let's go to him right now."

In fact, Abbott didn't pay attention to her words at all.

She, a fake, dared to raise her voice and make a scene? Not even afraid of getting caught.

Exasperated, 'Dolores' thought that she was going to see Matthew and got up from the sofa quickly, ignoring the pain in her foot, "Is he waiting for me?"

Abbott pursed his lips, "Yes."

"Huh, you were acting like a snob, now you are struck dumb. Now do you know my position in Matthew's heart? I gave birth to two children for him. In the future I will be Mrs. Nelson, if I tell him about your behavior, I can have you fired in a minute!" 'Dolores' words became more presumptuous because Abbott hadn't allowed her to go out and he wasn't respectful to her.

Annabelle had always had a domineering temperament and now that she had become the person next to Matthew, she was naturally going to be arrogant. Abbott did not flatter her or gave her the attention and respect she demanded, so she held a grudge.

She was not rational enough to know that it was not the time and wanted to go meet Matthew and have him fire Abbott.

Abbott looked at her in a domineering way and smiled, "I shall wait and see."

'Dolores' face looked very ugly.

She had made her decision that when she gained power, the first thing she was going to do was to get Abbott fired!

"Help me. Can't you see that my foot is hurt? Are all people around Matthew so dumb?"

Abbott was too irritated to argue with her and stretched out his arm to support her.

They took the elevator down to the hotel lobby, crossed the lobby to the parking lot outside the hotel. As Abbott was about to get in the car, 'Dolores' said sarcastically, "Do you not know who you are?"

Abbott looked back. What did she want now?

"Open the door for me!" She glared at him.

Abbott's gaze fixed on her face for a few seconds and then he finally reached over and opened the rear door.

'Dolores' snorted coldly and sat in the car.

"So stupid! I don't know how you became Matthew's assistant."

Abbott bit his cheek and pursed his lips.

He hoped she could still be this arrogant after reaching the place.

He started the car.

In order to not be found out and be able to stay besides Matthew smoothly, 'Dolores' had surveyed who was around Matthew and had a slight cognition. She also had an understanding of the WY Group.

But the direction of Abbott's car was not clearly on the way to WY Group.

She couldn't help but frown, "Isn't Matthew at the company? Where are you taking me?"

Abbott looked at her coldly through the rearview mirror, "You'll know when you get there."

Not long after that, the car stopped. 'Dolores' couldn't help but wince when she saw where this was. She trembled slightly, "You... Why did you bring me here?"
