Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 236

It was indeed cruel to be imprisoned for six years.

Just why did he talk to him?

It was as if in a flash, he figured out that Charles' purpose for luring him here. So it had something to do with Nathan.

Matthew turned his head, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "Mr. White, is this what you lured me here for?"

Being caught by Matthew, Charles did not feel embarrassed, but burst into laughter, "I really can't hide it from you. However, I think as long as you are willing to investigate, you will definitely find out a lot of things."

"What good will it do with me?" It was obvious that Matthew did not want to get involved in this mess. If it weren't for Dolores, he wouldn't even be in a place like this.

Did he want to use him?

That was ridiculous!

Charles became serious. It was definitely impossible for him to use Matthew to investigate this matter without telling him something in advance. With Matthew's intelligence, he would soon be able to figure it out.

Now, if he wanted him to be interested in the matter, he would have to throw out the bait that would interest him.

"My adoptive father, Nathan, never married in his life, only because he lost his first love. He and his first love were engaged to be married, but then, the two separated. I don't know exactly because of what. I only know that his first love married your father, Jayden."

"My adoptive father was imprisoned for six years, don’t you think ..."

"What are you trying to say? My father stole your adoptive father's woman?" Matthew's face became more and more ugly. He didn't have a good impression of Victoria in the first place, and moreover, everything that happened now had something to do with her.

This made him very unhappy.

Charles had also suspected that his adoptive father was imprisoned by Jayden back then. He imprisoned him in order to get Victoria.

He threatened Victoria by cutting off Nathan's fingers, and if she didn't stay with him, he would continue to hurt Nathan, which forced Victoria to stay with him.

This was why Nathan was imprisoned and his fingers were chopped off.

However, there was something else he couldn't figure out. If Jayden did it, how did he get the Harris family to spare him?

Back then, Jayden and Jolene were a couple. He made such a big deal. Would the Harris family turn a blind eye to it?

So, there was a lot more to this suspicion that didn’t make sense.

"You never wondered if it was normal for your father to marry Victoria Forbis shortly after your mother's death and your grandfather didn't even interfere."

Whether it was a respectable family or a commoner, who could tolerate their son-in-law marrying another woman soon after their daughter's death, and without saying a word?

Either way, this whole thing was strange.

"What did you say, Victoria Forbis?" There was a thunderbolt crossing Matthew's mind.

He had always been distant and cold towards Victoria, and never bothered to get to know her deliberately.

But he still knew her name. His father had also introduced her to the public as Victoria.

And now Charles was saying that her last name was Forbis?

Then why did his father hide her surname?

What was the secret of this?

He knew that Charles was deliberately letting him know and wanted to use his hand to investigate the matter. However, at this moment, even if he knew that he was being used, he was willing to do so.

He always felt that he was living in a huge conspiracy until this matter was clarified.

"Mr. Nelson, are you interested in working with me?" Charles held out an olive branch to him again.

He sensed Matthew's hesitation.

"I'm not going to lie. I can be where I am today because of my adoptive father. I have to repay him. He has passed away. All I can do is to make sure that the people who once hurt him are punished. Mr. Nelson, you also want to find out what happened between Victoria and your father, right? If we join forces, it won't be difficult to figure it out. What do you think?"

Matthew laughed, "If I want to know, I can find out for myself. Why would I want to work with you?"

Matthew came over and picked up his daughter. As he stepped into the courtyard, he turned his back on Charles and said, "I'll leave it to you here."

Charles smiled, "Okay. Please don't worry, I will find out as soon as possible."

He knew that Matthew was agreeing to cooperate with him.

This was his territory, and it would not be difficult for him to find out what happened to the Forbis family back then.

It was just a matter of time.

As long as something had happened, even if it had been a long time, there would still be traces of it to be found.

"Daddy, when will Mommy come back?" Simona wrapped her arms around his neck. She missed her grandmother and kind of wanted to go back.

"Soon." Matthew stroked her head, "I'll take you to bed."

"Mr. Nelson," Charles rolled his wheelchair and followed him in, "You're the most generous man I've ever met."

"Since ancient times, the children always follow their father's surname. But you've managed to let your children take your wife's surname. That's very generous of you."

After saying that, Charles laughed out loud and turned his wheelchair towards his room.

Obviously, he was teasing him.

He knew full well that when Dolores had these two children, Matthew didn't know, and that was why they took Dolores' surname.

He said it deliberately to mock him.

"Mr. White, you're worrying too much." Matthew paused, then lifted his leg again. He really didn't mind if the children took Dolores' last name. The children were his bloodline anyway, and that couldn't be changed.

What was more, if he wanted a child with his last name, he would have had another one with her.

Charles heard the subtext in Matthew's words and his smiling face slowly turned cold.
