Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Capítulo 49

Chapter: 49

A deep frown clouded Chelsea’s face instantly. She gritted her teeth and rolled her eyes. She knew that he meant to say something else

Quarrelling with him was not in her agenda at all. So, she ignored his tease and greeted politely, “Good day, Mr. Nelson.” Taking the hint, Edmund withdrew his gaze from her face and motioned at the seat in front of him. “Have a seat.” Chelsea sat down. Wasting no time, she took out her laptop and turned it on.

Edmund stood up and fetched two cups of coffee. He stretched out one to her. Chelsea thanked him and was about to take it. But his hand suddenly tilted. The coffee spilled on her chest.

“Oh my!” Chelsea exclaimed and sprang to her feet. She Looked down at her stained clothes in horror while cursing in her mind. Since she returned, she had been unfortunate to have two cups of coffee spilled on her. And they were both done by siblings. What bad Luck!

“Oops! I’m so sorry.” Edmund hadn’t intended for that to happen. He had been gazing at Chelsea’s face, so he was absentminded as he handed her the cup of coffee. In a haste, he put down the cup in his hand and pulled out some pieces of tissue to wipe the mess on her clothes.

Chelsea’s face instantly flushed as his hand came closer.

“Why are you blushing? It’s no big deal. | have seen your nakedness before, so there’s no point being shy,” Edmund uttered when he saw her flushed face.

Chelsea was speechless. She could only look up at him with embarrassment .

Just when Edmund handed her the pieces of tissue and was about to withdraw his hand, the door of his office flung open. Diane stormed in like a ferocious Lioness.

She had secretly followed Edmund after he left. It wasn’t until when she saw him entering the company that she was relieved. She finally believed that he indeed had some work to do.

However, her relief was short-lived. She was about to go back home when she saw Chelsea arrive in a taxi. Her suspicion got the best of her again. She quickly parked the car and went upstairs.

“What are you doing?” Diane was delusional. Just because Edmund's hand was close to Chelsea’s chest, she concluded that he was about to take off her suit jacket.

Rage burned red rashes on her cheeks and forehead. Her thin eyebrows were also knitted. Setting aside the gentle mask she always put on in Edmund's presence, she pointed at Chelsea and spat furiously, “You shameless bitch, what brings you here? You snatched Edmund from me by climbing into his bed four years ago. Now, you want to seduce him in his office. Who the hell do you think you are? Gosh, you are a pathetic excuse for a woman!”

Diane had the urge to pounce on Chelsea for seducing her man yet again. For starters, she decided to slap her. She rushed over in high heels with her hand raised.

“Diane!”

Edmund was quick enough to catch Diane’s hand before the slap Landed on Chelsea's cheek.

“What's wrong with you? Why are you overreacting?” Edmund bellowed angrily. His grip tightened over Diane’s wrist and it turned red.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Unwilling to back down, Diane shook off Edmund's hand with maximum strength. Her eyes blazed like Cyclops from X-Men’s eyes for a split second. Afterward, she looked pitiful as she fought back tears. “Why won't | overreact? Answer me! Which woman in her right mind would be pleased to find out that a slut came to her man’s office at midnight? What's she doing here? Edmund, do you need me to remind you how she set you up four years ago?”

At first, Chelsea was grateful to Edmund for helping her block Diane’s slap. She thought he would reprimand Diane more angrily. But when she saw that he was being lenient with Diane, she stopped being grateful.

These two were getting married soon. They were a family.

Edmund had reacted exactly how he did during Chelsea’s altercation with Sonya. He prevented Chelsea from getting hurt, but she wasn’t grateful at all. She just felt that he was protecting Diane.

Diane was a popular star and the future Mrs. Nelson. If the word got out that she slapped Chelsea after accusing her of seducing Edmund, the reputation of the Nelson family and Diane would be affected negatively.
