Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 605 Like Plucking A Chicken

"I'll accompany you," Dolores walked downstairs. She took out some fruit from the refrigerator and washed it. After that, Dolores cut it up and put it on a plate. She brought it out on the table and sat next to Theresa. Dolores looked at the scabby wound on Theresa's foot, "It's getting well."

Theresa said, "I'm going to die of boredom if it's not getting well."

"I don't think you're idle either," Dolores got Theresa a piece of cantaloupe with a fork, "How many orders uncle has taken recently?"

It was not a proper way to close down the store for a long time because they would lose their customers after a long time. The dropping of popularity was a natural part after the exhibition. The store was closed for a long time, and it was normal that customers would forget about the store. So Dolores thought of a solution. They opened the business online during the period that they could not go back to City C. They could design the dress style that the customer wanted according to the customer's request. After that, they could pass the drawing to Oscar, and he would issue the embroiderers and lathe workers to make the dresses.

"We have three or four orders now," Theresa ate the fruits while said, "I can handle it alone. I drew two sketches of the design when I was free last time. Then, I showed them to two customers, and it just so happened that they like it. So I have two orders left now. To tell you the truth, this is a good idea. Now that we have resolved the hiatus of the shop, we can keep our customers. Besides, I'll be bored to death if I were to stay at home all the time. Hence, this is indeed killing two birds with one stone."

She turned her head to look at Dolores, "Didn't Matthew come back at noon? Where is he? Didn't he accompany you? By rights, you should not have time to accompany me."

Dolores looked a little awkward and avoided Theresa's gaze by the action of eating fruits. She said indifferently, "He took a phone call and went outside. I don't know what's going on."

Dolores did not directly tell Theresa because she was afraid Theresa was not ready for that. If Theresa still had affections for Armand, she should have had some emotional changes when she saw Armand. Otherwise, she probably did not have any feelings for Armand.

Theresa's mouth twitched, "Coral purposely took the child to play outside to give you two some time to get along. Matthew was so busy unexpectedly. Money doesn't grow on trees, sure enough.” Dolores shoved some fruits into Theresa's mouth, "Shut up."

Theresa laughed.

After chatting for a while, Theresa asked Lucy to take her sketch of design out of her room, and she showed it to Dolores. According to the customer's request, she asked to embroider red flowers pattern on green fabric. If the dress style did not look good, it would look oldish with such a color combination. So Theresa wanted to discuss it with Dolores.

"The customer who customized the dress was a lady in her fifties in City C. Do you think it's appropriate to make a suit or a dress?"

Dolores looked at the two versions of Theresa's design, and each had its characteristics and shortcomings. She asked, "What's the identity of the lady?"

"The wife of the business owner. We've made a video call earlier, and she's a lady who looks quite elegant," Theresa replied.

"Let's make her a suit," Dolores pointed at the suit sketch Theresa designed, "Let's make a three-piece suit with a pure white blazer. The green and red colors create a visual effect. There will be different and complex colors of flowers embroidered. So the suit will look messy if with a fancy blazer."

Theresa nodded, "I think so too. The lady looked quite good taste in clothes. How come she like green with red flowers? What an odd taste! As the saying goes, green and red, sick the dog. What does she think?"

Dolores did not think it was something odd, "Everyone has their tastes and preferences of something, and don't judge it. I heard earlier that someone likes to smell nail polish. It's like a paint smell. How come someone thinks it's good smelling? Everyone has different looking and also different tastes and preferences."

Theresa agreed.

The doorbell rang at this time. Dolores got up to open the door, while Theresa turned her head to look at the door because she thought it was Coral who took Andrew and Amanda back home. However, when Dolores opened the door, they saw the driver and Matthew were carrying Armand, who seemed unconscious, instead of seeing Coral and the two children.

Theresa thought, 'What happened to him?'

'How come he was carrying by them?' she pondered.

Dolores turned her head to look at Theresa, and as it turned out to see Theresa's eyes rolled with worries when she did not hold back.

"He seems to be drunk," Dolores spoke to Theresa.

Theresa moved her eyes away, "It's not my business."

She sat on the sofa and continued to eat.

It seemed like she did not care about Armand at all.

Dolores sighed, "Send him to the guest room."

"I still want to drink," Armand got blasted. He still wanted to drink some more even though he could not open his eyes.

Dolores went to make a cup of honey water and handed it over to the driver, "Give him a drink of the honey water. He seems got so blasted. Sir, buy him some anti-alcoholic drugs from the pharmacy." "Just let him have a sleep, and he will be fine," Matthew handed Armand over to the driver, "Take Armand to the room."

Lucy walked over to help and said, "I'll cook some hangover soup tonight."

Dolores nodded, "Please take care of him."

Lucy said, "Sure," she took the honey water and helped the driver to carry Armand to go to the room.

"Do you smell the alcohol on me?" Matthew raised his arm to Dolores's nose.

Dolores said yes. Indeed she smelled light alcohol on him.

Dolores was pregnant, so she was sensitive to smell.

"I'll go have a shower," Matthew could not stand dirty, and he was even more afraid of Dolores smelling alcohol.

Dolores knew his habits. Although he had no fetish for cleanliness, he could not stand any smell on his body. She replied, "H'm."

Matthew did not show affection with Dolores since there was someone in the living room. He turned around and went upstairs to take a shower. After the shower, he knew Dolores did not go upstairs, and Theresa was downstairs too, so he went to Coral and wanted to play with the two children.

Coral took the two children to the bamboo grove in the mountain behind their place. They were all on a picnic mat spread on the grasses, with some food on it. Cotton was lying on the side while Andrew was reading a book about chess, and Amanda was drawing.

When Coral saw Matthew coming, she wanted to greet him, but Matthew stopped her with a gesture, signaling that she went back to the villa and he would take care of the two children.

Coral gently got up and left. She thought, 'Matthew rarely has time to spend with the two children. They will be happy for sure when Matthew accompanies them.'

After Coral left, Matthew went closer to Amanda with his noiseless steps. Amanda did not go to drawing class for learning, and it was Dolores and Theresa who taught her how to draw. Fashion design was essential for basic training in drawing. Since Dolores and Theresa were fashion designers, they had learned professional design and drawing skills. Both of them would teach Amanda drawing when they were free.

Amanda also liked to draw, so she learned it well.

She drew bamboo because she was in the bamboo grove. She was earnest in painting and did not notice the color stains on her white skirt, and she even did not notice Matthew was right behind her. It was summer. They did not feel hot in the bamboo grove but felt refreshing when the wind blew.

Matthew stood behind Amanda and lowered his eyes to look at her drawing. Although she had not yet finished the drawing, it had a pretty good rough sketch. So he did not disturb her and quietly paid attention to Amanda and looked forward to her finished the drawing.

Amanda was so focused that she did not notice someone was behind her. She asked suddenly, "Andrew, what do you think you would do if daddy betrayed mommy?"

Matthew was speechless.

He thought, 'What's she thinking?'

Same as Coral, Andrew saw Matthew walked over to them, but he did not say anything. Andrew glanced at Matthew, smiled, and asked in reply, "What about you? What would you do?"

Amanda tilted her head and thought about it. She seemed to have seen such a plot in a drama, so she recalled the lines at the time and replied to Andrew, "If it's me, I'll pluck all the hair from the mistress' body like plucking a chicken until she has no more hair on her body, so that she will have no way to seduce others."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
