Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 98: You Wanted to Bribe Me?

Randolph?

Why was he here?

Dolores opened the door immediately. After she got out, she thought about something and turned around to look at Matthew, "Go back now. I am afraid your presence will upset my mother."

Matthew saw the people in front of them too. He was the one who brought up the divorce before, so Jessica had every reason to detest him.

Besides, Randolph was here too. It would be inappropriate if he followed Dolores.

Matthew nodded. He laid his eyes on the little girl in Jessica's arms. The little girl had black hair which was combed into two ponytails. She had a fair and innocent face. Under the curly eyebrows was a pair of bright, big eyes. She looked like a delicately-carved doll. She was like an angel.

Then he looked at Dolores. Out of consciousness, he held the steering wheel tighter.

He had to admit that Dolores had two lovely children.

The boy was smart and the girl was adorable.

"You are not in such back luck." Though abandoned by her father, she still had her mother. And now she even had two lovely children.

"What?" Dolores looked at him in confusion.

She didn't understand what he meant by that.

Matthew reached his hand to move a string of hair from before her eyebrows and eyes to behind her ear, "Nothing. Go ahead."

Dolores froze and then nodded, "Okay."

The she closed the door and walked quickly towards Jessica. She dragged away Randolph who was pestering Jessica. Dolores stood before Jessica and glared at Randolph, "What do you want?" "Lola..." Randolph looked at his daughter. The hands that were hanging beside his body were closed together now, "Your father was wrong."

Six years ago, when the company was facing the plight, Annabelle stole the money and ran away. Beulah was still in prison now because of what she did back then.

When Randolph was faced with the plight, it was Dolores who had always been neglected by him that helped him.

At present, Dolores didn't want to argue about who was wrong and who was right any more. She had let it go. She said with peace, "Don't come replace us anymore." Then he carried up her son and Jessica carried Simona in her arms.

Randolph run to catch her, "Lola."

"If you keep pestering us, I will call the police?" Dolores's face darkened.

Randolph looked at Simona who was in her arms and said with his eyes a bit red, "These are your children?"

"Yes." Dolores' patience was wearing thin.

"They look pretty. Just like you." Randolph still wanted to chat, "I don't have other meanings. It is just that I saw your mother today..."

Then he looked at Jessica, "and knew you were back. Call me whenever you need me."

He quickly took out a name card from his pocket and handed it to Dolores.

Dolores didn't accept it.

Randolph looked embarrassed, "You can think me as a friend. Maybe you will need my help someday."

Dolores looked at him.

He had aged much in these years. His hair on the temples were already white. She left in an emergency that year and didn't know how he toiled through the plight.

Dolores reached her hand to the name card and took it.

Randolph smiled and got out of Dolores' way quickly.

His action was so humble. He looked like a child who had committed a mistake and acted carefully trying to fix it.

It would be a lie if she said she felt nothing for him.

He was her father by blood.

The blood running in her body was connected with his.

"Liar." Jessica pulled Dolores' hand, "Let's go. Don't be fooled by his performance."

Jessica felt nothing but hate for Randolph.

She would never forgive him.

Dolores turned around with faint sadness and resignation and followed Jessica back.

When entering the staircase, Dolores asked, "How did you meet him?"

"I took them out of the aquarium. When we were waiting for the bus beside the road, he came across us. He pestered me and wanted to talk to me. He asked me if Samuel and Simona were your children. I didn't want to talk to him, so we took a taxi back. But it didn't occur to me that he would follow us back." When talking about Randolph, Jessica didn't have smile but hate on her face.

Dolores knew how bad Randolph had hurt Jessica, so she didn't try to persuade her. Because she hated him to some degree too.

In these years, with two children by her side, Dolores paid all her attention to them. As for the things in the past, she had let go many of them. Beulah had been imprisoned and Randolph's favorite daughter betrayed him.

He had got what he deserved.

"Starting from now, you mustn't contact him." Jessica ordered Dolores, afraid that Dolores would get soft-hearted after seeing Randolph like that.

"He cruelly abandoned us and asked you to marry..."

"Mom, stop." Dolores interrupted her. Two children were listening to their conversation.

At this moment, Jessica realized it and shut up quickly. She fondled Simona's hair, "Simona, are you sacred by granny?"

Simona shook her head. She didn't understand what granny meant. She only knew granny seemed to dislike that old man. But Samuel heard everything and knew it clearly.

That was granny's husband, mummy's father and his grandpa.

But granny didn't want to forgive him for what he did.

"It's not early now. You must be hungry?" Dolores asked.

Simona nodded her head hard, "I want pizza."

This little thing was the happiest person in the world. She didn't have to think about anything else but food and toys.

"Okay, let's have pizza today." Full of affection, Dolores reached her hand to pinch Simona's cheek, "Simona is the boss in this family."

"What about me?" Samuel asked.

"You are the second boss." Dolores said seriously.

Samuel was ill-affected, "Why? I am her brother."

"Then you tell me,

do you admit your mistakes now?"

Samuel shut up immediately, thinking why she was still holding on to it.

He was a bit regretful. He shouldn't have asked her the question before.

Samuel felt like he had dug a hole for himself to jump into.

After they were back home, Dolores changed Samuel and Dolores' shoes at the door. Jessica was feeling down and entered her room.

Watching Jessica's back, Dolores knew Jessica was suddenly feeling so upset because she thought of Jeremy.

Ever since she gave birth to these two children, Jessica had been occupied with taking care of them. Being busy every day, Jessica didn't have much time to think about the past.

After seeing Randolph today, Jessica might think of the past again.

Dolores held two children's hands and led them to the living room. She took out her phone, "Which favor do you want?"

"Durian." Simona grabbed Dolores' arm and pitched to her, "I want durian pizza."

"Okay." Dolores clicked the durian pizza and looked at Samuel, "How about Samuel?"

"Cheese." Samuel looked at Dolores, "Mummy likes it."

Dolores looked up at her son, "What? Are you trying to bribe me? Don't you think that I will let it go because you ingratiate yourself with me. If you don't admit your mistakes, I won't give your things back." Samuel breathed out a sigh. It was no fun. His plot was detected in a minute.

Dolores ordered the pizzas and put down her phone, "Samuel, play with your sister in the living room. I will check on your granny in her room."

"Okay."

Samuel was very well-behaved.

He was thinking about when Dolores would give his things back to him.

"Mummy, can I have a cup of juice first?" He was a bit thirsty.

"Wait." Dolores went to the kitchen and poured two cups of juice. The juice in their house was all home-made, which didn't have any additive and was healthier.

She handed the cups to the children and then headed to Jessica's room.

She grabbed the handle and twisted it. Slowly, the door was opened. She saw...☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
