Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap
Chapter 708 How Could You

"There's still some time left, I will make sure to get the best doctors to handle our problem, we still have time, don't worry too much." Matthew comforted her as he rubbed her back gently.

Dolores closed her eyes slowly; she had been worried all this while.

"Don't worry; I'll take care of everything." Matthew kissed her forehead, "Sleepy?"

Dolores shook her head, "Have you eaten? I told mom to keep some food for you."

"I've eaten."

He didn't, he had no appetite.

"Take a walk me with me then." Dolores didn't want to go back to her room, she felt suffocated.

Matthew nodded and walked with her, holding her hand.

It was a breezy evening, not too hot or too cold.

Dolores held onto his arm and said, "Stay home tomorrow morning, will you?"

Matthew looked at her.

"Tomorrow is September first," Dolores said, smiling.

Matthew forgot about the date until she reminded him.

He missed the birth of his children, and he did not want to miss their first day of school.

"Do we need to prepare something?" Matthew became excited slightly, his children were going to school.

"It will be too late if I wait for you," Dolores said as she threw him a glance.

Matthew was speechless.

She had everything prepared.

At the Miller residence...

Boyce visited the Miller residence after the police station. He wanted to cut the chords between Wendy and him the soonest he could.

The Millers were shocked to see him. Officer Miller was the first to spoke, he raised his voice at Mrs. Miller, "What are you doing frozen? Let him in." Mrs. Miller then welcomed Boyce in an instant.

"You are finally back, Boyce. Wendy worried so much after you went missing. She couldn't eat or sleep well and had lost a tremendous amount of weight."

Mrs. Miller was trying hard to create a good impression of her daughter.

While Wendy was still in shock by Boyce's sudden appearance in front of her, "Boyce..." she mumbled.

Boyce on the other hand apologized calmly, "I'm sorry to have made you worried."

"It's alright. Most importantly you come back alive. I've been crying since your disappearance, though you and Wendy have not married, I treated you as my son-in-law. I'm so glad that you come back alive." Mrs. Miller pulled Boyce's arm, "Come sit down, have you eaten? Let me prepare something to eat."

Boyce's appearance shed light on Wendy's future, Mrs. Miller was eager to show her concern over Boyce.

"There's no need, I'm not hungry," Boyce said.

"Let me prepare something," Mrs. Miller insisted.

"There's no need," Boyce rejected.

Officer Miller couldn't stand her acts, "Just shut up!"

'Since when did she cry for Boyce? She keeps pushing Wendy to look for someone else.'

He sighed as he thought of that. "What happened, Boyce? Where have you been?" He asked.

Boyce told the truth about what happened and how he was rescued, but he skipped the part with Jasmine.

Officer Miller let out a sigh of relief, "It's good that you are alive, I thought you were dead."

"Sorry to have made you worried," Boyce apologized again.

"As long as you come back safe." Wendy came forward and hugged Boyce in front of her parents.

Boyce froze. "Wendy."

He wanted to push her away but the more he pushed, the harder she hugged. "I nearly collapsed, my days were like years."

Boyce's hands froze in the air, "I'm sorry to make you worry, Wendy, please get up."

Wendy hugged even tighter hearing that, "No, I won't ever let you go again, I don't want to lose you again."

Boyce didn't know what to do.

"There's something I need to tell you, Wendy." He wanted to cut the chords between them the soonest possible.

Wendy looked up, "What do you want to tell me? Do you plan to propose?"

"No Wendy, I'm here to break up with you," Boyce said honestly.

Wendy's face stiffened, so did Mrs. Muller's. Mrs. Miller immediately asked, "What did you say?"

Boyce stood up. He bowed at Mr. and Mrs. Miller, "I'm truly sorry that I can't be with Wendy."

Officer Miller was calmer compared to the others, he knew from the beginning that Boyce didn't like his daughter, he agreed out of respect for him. "There's no point apologizing, you agreed to be with Wendy but breaking your promise now. How could you conduct such a shameful act?"

Boyce was speechless; it was him that broke his promise.

"You've agreed to marry Wendy, how could you break up with her now..."

"That's enough!" Officer Miller was annoyed. He knew Boyce didn't like Wendy but he didn't expect him to break up with her. "Tell me what is happening."

Wendy interrupted, "You fall for another woman?"

She starred at Boyce. She knew this man, he was not a sentimental person when it came to romantic relationships. He even introduced her to his closest friends right after he agreed to be with her. He was a man with a sense of responsibility.

There must be another woman that he liked so much that made him broke up with her.

"Tell me who is she." Wendy clenched her fists.

Boyce apologized, "I'm sorry."

"Apology is useless, you've hurt my daughter. Listen carefully Boyce Shawn, I won't let you break up with my daughter. What a bastard, we were worried about you while you went missing but you come back to break up with Wendy? How could you!"
