Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 831

Armand stared at his cell phone for a long time. He didn’t reply to the message immediately. He imagined that she sent him a message because she missed him instead of discussing the divorce with him.

He had expectations and fear in his heart.

Plucking up his courage, he swiped to unlock the screen. With hesitation, he tabbed to read the message.

Theresa didn’t enter too many words, “I’ll go to find you tomorrow. Please get the divorce agreement ready.”

Reading the few words, Armand couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Without thinking twice, he replied: “Have you made up your mind?”

Actually, he wanted to ask her why she could make the decision so soon.

He knew that he shouldn’t question her, but he couldn’t help.

He felt quite upset.

The message tone didn’t ring at all. Theresa didn’t reply.

Before sending Armand the message, Theresa had made up her mind, so she didn’t reply to his last question.

Armand tabbed the contact list open and wanted to dial her phone number. He wanted to ask her why she could adjust her mood so soon and if it was because of another man. Thinking about her grievance, he gave up although he was so upset.

Leaning against the back of the chair, he closed his eyes.

After a while, he suppressed his surging emotion. Then he picked up his phone again and replied: “I’ve got it ready.”

He tossed the phone onto the passenger seat after sending the message. Then he started the engine and drove. As soon as he arrived home, he heard something smashed in the house. He hurriedly pushed the door open and entered, only to find that Elizabeth was scolding Bertha, “Who do you think you are? Why can’t I go out? You can’t stop me!”

Armand rushed over and said to Bertha, “Please don’t mind her.”

Bertha said, “I know. I don’t mind.”

“You can go back to work,” said Armand.

Bertha turned away.

“Armand, she doesn’t allow me to go out,” Elizabeth pulled Armand and complained, “You should fire her!”

Armand sat on the sofa and asked, “What are you going to do after going out?”

“I...” Elizabeth looked blank, wondering what she was going to do just now.

But she couldn’t remember.

Armand tried to calm her down, “Bertha doesn’t let you go out for your own good. There are bad men outside. She’s afraid you might get in danger. It’s not her fault. I asked her to do so.”

“It’s daytime. What nonsense are you talking about? How come there are bad men?” Elizabeth glared at him, “Stop lying to me.”

Armand said helplessly, “I’m not lying.”

“For real?”

“Yep.”

In the evening, after sending Elizabeth to sleep, Armand went back to his bedroom. He turned on the laptop and started working on the divorce agreement. He had done such a thing several times before, but this time, he had no idea where to start.

Theresa and he didn’t argue and they didn’t break up. It was just paperwork to get such an agreement.

Suddenly, he let out a bitter smile. The most abusive thing in this world was to draft his own divorce agreement.

Inwardly, he told himself that Theresa could search for her happiness after divorcing him. He would be satisfied as long as she would be happy.

However, no matter how hard he reminded himself, as long as he realized that he was drafting his own agreement, he couldn’t enter any word at all.

In the end, he gave up. He called a lawyer in his firm and said it was for a client, asking the lawyer to do it for him.

Elizabeth didn’t get better after taking the medicine. Armand thought that it might take time. When she got stubborn, Bertha couldn’t calm her down at all. Hence, Armand didn’t dare to leave her home. The next morning, he took Elizabeth to work.

His client had arrived at the law firm, waiting for him in the early morning.

“Who is this?” The woman saw Armand pushing an old lady in and thought that he had a new case.

Armand explained, “She’s my grandmother. She doesn’t want to stay home, and I’m worried to let her stay home alone.”

“I see,” the woman said, “Please help me find the lawsuit...” As she had expected, her husband didn’t want to be wiped out.

“Okay...”

“Hi, Theresa,” Elizabeth glinted at the woman, “Are you pregnant?”

The woman was confused.

Armand frowned and whispered to his grandmother, “She’s not Theresa.”

“I’m sorry. She mistook you as another woman.”

“What nonsense are you talking about? Who else is she if she was not Theresa? She’s carrying your baby in her belly. Good girl, come over.” Elizabeth reached out to the woman.

The woman cast a glance at Armand and reached to take her hand. Elizabeth pulled her and said, “Good you’re safe and sound. You must be good with Armand.”

The woman seemed to guess what was going on. She said, “Sure. Please rest assured.”

“All right. All right.” Elizabeth didn’t want to let go of the woman’s hand.

Armand rubbed his forehead, starting to regret taking her to work.

“I’m sorry for that.”

The woman didn’t mind and said, “It’s alright. She’s old. I understand.”

Armand said, “Shall we go in?”

Elizabeth pulled the woman. Armand asked her to wait for him in the reception room. He went to his office to sort out the documents. Later, he would go to the court with the woman.

Armand wanted to push Elizabeth away, but she was unwilling to, “I’ll stay here talking to Theresa. Go ahead with your work.”

“Grandma, she’s not Theresa...”

“Are you blind? Of course, she’s Theresa. Have you forgotten how upset you were when she was missing? How come you can’t recognize her now?” Elizabeth looked extremely serious.

Armand choked up.

The woman smiled, “Is Theresa your girlfriend or wife, Mr. Bernie?”

Armand was a bit embarrassed, “She’s my wife.”

“You must love her a lot. Otherwise, your grandmother wouldn’t remember so clearly how upset you were.” The woman wasn’t teasing him. She always thought that all men were quite bad. Now since she had heard what Elizabeth said, she had changed her mind.

It seemed that Mr. Bernie treasured his love.

Armand hummed and asked the receptionist to keep an eye on Elizabeth.

“Okay, Mr. Bernie.” The receptionist took over two glasses of water.

She passed one to Elizabeth, and the other to the woman.

The woman took over the water and took a sip. With a smile, she asked, “Mrs. Bernie, do you like your granddaughter-in-law?”

Elizabeth’s eyes widened, “You are granddaughter-in-law, aren't you? Are you still angry with Armand? He has broken up with Phoebe Lewis already. He always likes you. When you were missing, he was also miserable. Now you have a baby. Please do forgive him.”

The woman was speechless.

She liked Armand earlier and thought that he was a responsible man. It turned out...

Sure enough, she had confirmed again that men in this world were all bad.

“I won’t be reconciled with him.”

“Why... why not?” Elizabeth couldn’t believe what she had heard, “Theresa, please...”

“He has cheated on me. Why should I still be with him? Am I nuts?” She believed that as a woman, she must hate the bad men to the core.

“You can’t do this.” Elizabeth pinched the woman’s hand tightly, “Armand has realized it was his bad. Please do forgive him, Theresa.”
