Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 1051

The car sped off leaving a trail of pungent exhaust fumes.

Joan looked at Amanda’s expression. She was very calm and did not seem to be bothered to see Stanford with another woman.

“Are you looking to see if I would cry?” She joked and continued, “All the tears had been previously shed.”

Joan pursed his lips and did not attempt to console her. He felt that the best that he could do was to walk quietly with her. Both of them walked casually without speaking a word.

A gust of wind blew Amanda’s hair around and she tucked some strains of hair behind her ear and said, “Let’s go shopping.”

“Okay.” Joan agreed to whatever Amanda wanted to do.

Amanda was very familiar with this city. She brought Joan to a shopping centre and went directly to the men’s section.

“My mother was a fashion designer but gave up her career after marrying my father,” Amanda said as they walked into a men’s store.

Joan nodded.

“Do you know my family background?” She raised her eyebrows.

“Not in detail. Just superficially.” Joan said and continued, “Your mother must have been very attractive when she was young.”

Amanda confirmed, “Yes.”

In the period she knew Joan, she noticed that the style and colour of the clothes he wore revealed that he was more conservative and reserved. Dark colours seemed to suit him.

“Do you have any official business to attend to over here?” She asked.

“No.” Joan did not have any business dealings in that city.

“Shall we buy something casual?” Most of the time, Joan would wear business suits, uniforms, or traditional Thai garments. She could not remember seeing him wearing something casual.

Joan nodded.

In that case, this store was unsuitable. She decided to bring Joan to another shop.

Perhaps she inherited some of her mother’s fashion sense and coupled with Joan’s build, she quickly picked out two outfits that were suitable for Joan.

“You can have the hotel staff dry clean what you are wearing now,” Amanda said.

Joan looked at her and asked, “Are you taking care of me now?”

Amanda kept her head down and replied, “If you think so.”

“Really?” Hilary asked doubtfully.

“Definitely.” Atwood handed her a box and said, “There are some clothes inside. Pick one to wear during the contract signing day after tomorrow.”

Hilary did not take over the box immediately as she was in disbelief. She then looked at Atwood doubtfully and asked, “Do you have a girlfriend?”

“What do you mean?” Atwood asked.

“You understand Stanford so well and even picked out the clothes for me. Why do I have the impression that your understanding of Stanford exceeded that of an assistant or a friend?”

She suspected that Atwood was homosexual, otherwise, how would he know Stanford so well?

Atwood was speechless.

“I’m straight and I like women, alright?” Atwood emphasized again, “Do as I say.”

Hilary agreed as she wanted to win the love of the man whom she liked.

She brought the box home with her and opened it. The clothes were the style that Amanda wore when she was with Stanford. Atwood intended to look for a lady who looked like Amanda to take her place beside Stanford.
