Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap

Chapter 881 You’re Silly

“Ms. Flores, please take a rest first and we will discuss our work later.” Atwood handed her luggage to

her.

“Thank you.” Amanda took over her luggage.

Atwood turned around and left after glancing at her. Amanda was still standing at the doorway and did

not close the door immediately. Instead, she watched Atwood close the lift and leave while Casimir

walked out from the corner of the corridor.

“He has gone far away, right?”

“Come in quickly.” Amanda pulled Casimir in.

She took off her high heels and replaced them with slippers. Then, she put her luggage aside and

asked while sitting down on the sofa, “How is the matter that I asked you to investigate?”

Throughout this year, he and Amanda had become close friends that could share anything between

them. He had also helped her investigate something during this period.

“After your death, Stanford merged James Group and WY Group, which is now the J&Y Group. As for

that posthumous letter, I really haven’t found out who put it there.”

Amanda narrowed her eyes. The letter must be purposely put by somebody who harmed her when she

was judged to have committed suicide. The person who harmed her must be Stanford but she had no

evidence yet.

She had to find the evidence.

“You have just come back. Relax and let’s go to have dinner. I will treat you as welcoming you back.”

Casimir said while smiling.

“I’m tired. I don’t want to go out anymore. Cook something in the room and just simply eat it.” Amanda

moved her neck.

“No, no, let’s go out to eat.” Casimir pulled Amanda, “Hurry up. Put on your shoes.”

Amanda had no choice but to agree. She promised as she did not want to disappoint him for being so

hospitable.

She put on her shoes and went out with Casimir.

“Where are we going?” Amanda asked as she got into the car.

Casimir said, “Just sit down and relax. I will arrange everything for you today.”

He drove the car after saying that.

Soon, he parked the car in front of a high-class restaurant in the city. Amanda used to come here

before, so she was not surprised. She smiled while looking at Casimir, “You really don’t have to spend

so much.”

“It’s rare for you to come back, so I must spend it for you. Otherwise, how can I show my sincerity?”

Casimir got out of the car and passed the car key to the waiter.

Both of them walked in and picked the seat at the corner where it was quieter.

Soon, the waiter came over. Amanda was probably exhausted, so she let Casimir order for her.

Casimir smiled, “So, can I order whatever I like?”

Amanda smiled, “Of course you can. You pay for it anyway.”

She glanced around the restaurant as she spoke. Suddenly, she saw two people coming in from the

doorway. They were Stanford and Lindsay following beside him.

She frowned as she met with her enemy again for the second time on the first day she had just

returned here.

Soon, they sat down at the seat near the window.

Lindsay ordered the food.

Stanford asked after the waiter had left, “What do you want to tell me actually?”

Lindsay smiled, “Let’s have dinner first.”

Stanford was slightly impatient, “If you don’t want to talk about it, then let’s talk about it next time.”

He got up.

Lindsay grabbed his hand hurriedly and pleaded in a soft voice, “Stanford, can’t you even have dinner

with me?”

“I still have something to do…” Stanford still refused.

“Stanford, I like you. I have liked you for a long time. You have divorced her for a year long. How about

let’s try being together?” Lindsay said humbly.

Stanford frowned in surprise, “Lindsay, what are you saying?”

“I say I liked you for a long time…”

“Lindsay!” Stanford interrupted her, “You’re silly.”

He wrenched himself from Lindsay’s grasp after saying that. Then, he turned around and left the

restaurant.

“Stanford.” Lindsay chased after him.

“Oh my God. We can even meet him in the same restaurant. I wonder if we didn’t check the calendar

right.” Casimir suspected.

Amanda glanced at him, “You’re getting more outspoken now. I’m going out for a while.”

Lindsay actually liked Stanford. Why didn’t she realize it before?

Lindsay had liked him a long time ago. When exactly Lindsay started to like him?

Her fingers curled up. Lindsay was her classmate as well as her good friend.

“I go together with you.” Casimir stood up.

“There are too many people around and it’s easy to be spotted. I will just go check it out myself.”

Amanda patted his shoulder.

Then, she followed them out alone.

Lindsay kept following him outside the restaurant, “Stanford, you have put all your effort and time into

your work during this year. You don’t allow anybody to mention her. Why is it so? Have you fallen in

love with her?”

Stanford suddenly stopped walking. He turned around and looked back at her sharply.

“She is your enemy. She has died because of taking things too seriously. You have just divorced her

and it’s not your fault. What’s more, she deserves to die…”

“Shut up!” Stanford raised his voice while his expression was grim, “Don’t mention her!”

“Why can’t I mention her?” Lindsay’s eyes turned red, “You have forgotten how your mother died…”

Stanford strangled her neck as he did not want to hear these words again, “Lindsay, remember your

status clearly.”

Lindsay did not dare to believe he would do this to her, “What is my status? You have been in pursuit of

Amanda. I as her classmate and good friend, I’m willing to find out her interests and then tell you. So,

you can get her attention. I help you wholeheartedly. What status do you think I’m?”

Stanford blinked his eyes as he slightly loosened his grip on her neck, “You’re her friend and you

shouldn’t even think like that.”

“If it wasn’t to help you, I wouldn’t have become friends with her. I did everything for you. Stanford, are

you going to be single for the rest of your life? Why can’t you see my good? Let bygones be bygones.

But now, she has already disappeared. Can’t you spend more time on me?” Lindsay sobbed, “Is it just

because she is a rich woman who is loved by everybody?”

“You know that I never see a person from his status. I’m not born from a good background too.”

Stanford let go of her, “Don’t say such words in the future.”

“Stanford…”

Stanford got into his car and left.

Lindsay stood still in place watching the car that sped away. She was overwhelmed with reluctance.

Amanda stood by the wall for a long time before regaining her sense. The good friend whom she

always thought of was just approaching her with a purpose?

Or was it for Stanford?

Oh…

Nobody around her treated her sincerely. Stanford, Lindsay, her loved one and her friend were

approaching her with ulterior motives?

The people whom she treated with sincerity were all intending to deceive and harm her so that they

could take over her assets?

How could people’s hearts be so evil?

“Are you alright?” Casimir walked over.

Amanda wiped the tears in her eyes, “I’m fine.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“Go in and eat something,” Casimir said.

Amanda replied “okay”.

Casimir asked after sitting at the table, “What have you heard? It seems that you’re unhappy.”

He regretted saying that as she was already upset. How could she continue the dinner if he discussed

such a sad topic with her?

“Hey, let’s eat. Let’s eat first.” Casimir kept giving her food.

“You should eat some more too.” Amanda calmed down herself.

Casimir sent her back to the hotel and told her to have a good rest after eating.

However, she tossed and turned in bed as she could not fall asleep for a long while. The man who

loved her before and his desperate look kept coming across her mind.

He was forcing her to divorce and wanted to kill her!

Stanford James!

She clutched her pillow tightly.

It was the next day.

Amanda arrived at J&Y Group in formal attire.
