Chapter 151 Nelson suddenly died

“Nothing,” Joey instantly shook her head and asked, “Allen, when are we going back to the city?”

She had gone on leave for quite a while with the company, but as a newcomer in the general

manager’s office, she couldn't afford to stay away for much longer.

“Whenever you want to.” Allen stroked her hair affectionately.

“How about tomorrow? My father is basically recovered after all.”

She couldn’t stay any longer.

“All right.”

Allen’s hands slowly slid from her face down to her delicate collarbone and all the way into the fair skin

under her shirt.

“Oh, Allen…”

Joey quickly grabbed his hands and complained, “Stop that! It's broad daylight!”

“No, I won’t, I’m doing something really important.”

Allen smiled with amusement and climbed on top of her.

However, Joey had just been so frightened by Ben Hawk in the corn fields that she wasn’t in a mood for

sex at all. She pushed him away, jumped out of bed and ran to the door, chuckling, “Since you are so

strong and energetic, why don’t you do some farm work for my father while you're still here? My father

has been lying in bed for a few days and there is plenty of work to do.”

Allen was intrigued by her suggestion, “I’d love to. I’ve never done any farm work before. Let’s go and

have some fun.”

He found a hoe in the courtyard and they left for the fields.

Joey knew that it was a just novelty for Allen. But she decided to go along with it because they had

nothing better to do right now.

When they passed a corn field, there came a sound of repressed panting of a man and a woman from

it.

Joey immediately blushed. It was daytime, who was bold enough to have sex in the cornfields?

Allen was interested, “Let's find out.”

He quietly walked towards the source of the sound with Joey.

Joey was so embarrassed by his great curiosity that she hurriedly lowered her voice, “Allen, no, how

could we do that? It's so inappropriate.”

As she spoke, two crazily intertwining bodies vaguely came into their sight. Allen and Joey were

shocked when they saw the lovers’ faces.

The man was Nelson while the woman under him was Mrs. Quigley, a widow from the village who Joey

has met on several occasions.

Mrs. Quigley was a well- recognized pretty young woman in the village. She had unfortunately become

a widow when her newly-wedded husband had accidentally gotten drunk and drowned in a pond.

It turned out that she had hooked up with Nelson.

Joey and Allen left the cornfield soon after they recognized their faces. Joey was a little upset, “I had

never expected Nelson to be such a man. I always thought he was a nice and honest young man.”

Allen shook his head disappointedly, “I guess we should never judge a book by its cover…”

The next morning, Joey got up early and packed her suitcase. Mr. Linderman insisted Joey and Allen

stay for breakfast.

Joey didn't protest.

However, they heard a hysterical cry from outside in the middle of breakfast. The whole village was

suddenly thrown into chaos. Something must have happened.

Mrs. Linderman, who had always been a curious gossiper, quickly left home and soon returned with the

shocking news that Nelson had died.

Joey was shocked to hear it and Allen was surprised too.

“How could it be possible? I saw him yesterday…”

Joey was sad and confused. She and Allen had just seen Nelson and Mrs. Quigley having an affair in

the cornfield yesterday afternoon. How could such a young man have died all of a sudden?

He was only twenty-three years old.

Joey immediately left home to ask for more details from other villagers. It turned out that it was more

serious and complicated than she had thought, because Mrs. Quigley had died with Nelson.

They had both died, for love.

This morning, Nelson confessed his love affair with Mrs. Quigley to his mother Aunt Nancy, and

decided to marry her. Aunt Nancy was shocked to hear it.

Mrs. Quigley was a pretty young woman, but she was a widow who had married someone from the

same village before. Aunt Nancy certainly wouldn’t allow it.

However, Nelson had made up his mind to marry his lover. He threatened to elope with Mrs. Quigley

when he found that his mother was against it.

Aunt Nancy had climbed up the mountain behind her house in a fit of anger and tried to persuade her

son out of the idea with her death.

Nelson had always been a filial son. Intimidated, he had knelt down before Aunt Nancy and caved in

with tears.

However, when Aunt Nancy had been about to descend from the mountaintop after a victory, she

suddenly slipped and fell down. Nelson quickly caught her and stopped her from rolling down the

mountain. But he was uncontrollably knocked out of the mountain because of inertia.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
