Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 946 Staying at My Home for One Night

The little girl was so cute when she was pouting. Amanda couldn't bear to say no, so she picked her up.

Then the little girl stretched her tiny white arms around her neck and smiled.

She was too approachable and not afraid of strangers, but that wasn't a good character to have.

Although she was endearing in this way, after all, there were not only good people in this world but also many bad people.

If she was abducted by a trafficker, it was likely that her life would be ruined.

The stone bridge was arched and Amanda carried her to the top, but as she went down, she accidentally broke her foot. There was a stabbing pain in her ankle and her body swayed. She quickly held onto the railing next to her.

"What's wrong with you?" The little girl was startled and clutched her collar with both hands for fear she would just drop her.

She had just almost fallen.

Amanda ignored her and tried to walk on her broken foot. However, as soon as she exerted herself, it hurt so much she couldn't walk.

"Put me down. Or you'll drop me." The little girl struggled.

Amanda whispered, "Don't move."

She couldn't hold her steady with one hand, and if she couldn't hold her later and dropped her, she would fall.

The little girl seemed to understand her and stayed still.

Amanda bent down and put her down.

The little girl stood firmly on her feet on the steps, tilted her head, and said, "I'll go and call someone."

When she finished, without waiting for Amanda to answer, she took off down the stairs on her little short legs and ran.

She looked at the small figure and couldn't help but smile. This child was really reckless.

The little girl's back soon disappeared. She didn't keep waiting, but held onto the railing and slowly made her way down, and tried not to use the foot that she had broken. Stepping off the stone bridge, she limped towards the house not far away.

It took a little while, but it was good that she got there. All the doors were closed, however.

Only the lights on the road and the doorway were on. The house was dark, and it looked as if no one was there.

Amanda was a little dumbfounded.

Where was everyone?

She went up to the door and knocked, and no one answered.

""

What was going on?

She quickly pulled out her phone to contact Joshua.

The phone wasn't answered immediately and only picked up when it rang a second time.

She asked anxiously, "Where's Mum and Dad?"

Joshua was puzzled, "At home."

"The lights aren't even on in the house. How can they be at home?"

Joshua was speechless.

"Where are you now?" He asked.

Without thinking, Amanda replied, "At the place where they live."

That was when it dawned on Joshua, "You've been to Thailand?"

"Yeah."

Joshua was speechless, "Why did you go without even telling me?"

Amanda sat down on the grass and lowered her eyes without saying a word.

She didn't say anything because she didn't want to, of course.

"Theresa's birthday is coming up, plus I'm getting married soon, and Mum is definitely coming back to set up my wedding. So I came back." "Well..."

"Of course, I wanted to come back to see you. Now it's not that I don't want to meet you guys. It's just why didn't you guys tell me you were going out?" Amanda wasn't expecting that.

"Come back, and you can just make it in time for Theresa's birthday."

Amanda pulled up her skirt to look at her ankle, which was red and swollen, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."

"Why are you regretting it?" Without waiting for Amanda to answer, Joshua gave her a lecture, "What do you want? Everyone has been so accommodating to you for so long. We've all let you do whatever you want. Now that you want to go back to see Mum and Dad. Why do you change your mind and not come back? What the hell are you thinking?"

"Are you done?" Amanda asked calmly.

Joshua said angrily, "Yes, I'm done."

"I didn't say I didn't want to go back. It's just that I accidentally broke my foot."

Joshua coughed softly, "Oh, so you didn't change your mind. Just go to the hospital. I'll tell them what's going on with you."

Amanda plucked at the grass on the ground, "Don't tell them in case they worry about me again. It's just a small injury. I'll go back when I'm healed."

"That's fine. Feel free to contact me if anything happens later."

Joshua instructed, "You go to the hospital first."

"Okay, I'll hang up then."

"Yes."

She put her phone away and stuffed it in her pocket.

She braced her hands on the ground and tried to stand up. Just then, a dark shadow appeared in front of her, "Hello."

She tilted her head while the man who caught her eye had short hair and well-defined features, dressed in a dark olive green drawstring style military uniform and black leather boots that set him straight and made him look stern.

"Daddy, that's her." The little girl pointed at Amanda, "She twisted her foot when she was carrying me."

Amanda looked to the little girl and then to the man in front of her. Although she didn't understand much, she heard the word "daddy".

She knew that this man was the little girl's father.

"Hello." She greeted stiffly.

"Let me see your injury."

Surprisingly, the man was speaking English. Amanda's eyes widened, "You know where I'm from?"

The man glanced at the house behind her, "I assume you're here for this?"

Amanda looked back and replied, "Yes."

"Are they your parents?" The man asked.

Amanda nodded, "Yes."

"You look a lot like them." The man said again.

Amanda rubbed her face. So he was judging by looks. She looked to the far side where the little girl had just pointed, which was not very far from here. Her parents had lived over here for a long time, so they should just know each other.

"Just come home with us." At this moment, the little girl took her hand.

Amanda smiled and said, "No need."

"They've all gone back home and there's no hotel around here. If you don't mind, let me take a look at your injury and you can stay at my house for the night. Your parents took good care of my daughter while they were here." The man said very sincerely.

Amanda still refused, "Well, if you can, it would be better to trouble you to take me to the hospital."

It was very late. She would make do at the hospital tonight and wait until tomorrow.
