Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Chapter 16

Chapter: 16

Both men had cigarettes between their fingers as they waited for their drivers to arrive.

Chelsea Looked away and walked to the other side to avoid them.

“Hey, Chelsea!” Yusuf suddenly called out to her, making her heart skip a beat.

Keeping her shock and displeasure on lockdown, Chelsea stopped and put on a smile. “Hello, Mr. Collins.”

Talking to Yusuf was the last thing Chelsea wanted to do now. She didn’t want to have anything to do with Edmund, including relating with his best friend.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

However, Yusuf was one of the important men in Vertoak. She couldn't afford to ignore his greeting. She might need his help in the future. After all, the wealthy and powerful in this city ruled its affairs.

Yusuf walked up to her with a charming smile. “| see that you are leaving now. I’m Leaving too. How about | give you a ride?” “No, thank you. | already ordered an Uber. It will arrive soon.” Chelsea refused politely, without sparing a second to think.

Edmund had thrown his cigarette and walked over to them at this time. He squinted at Chelsea unhappily and asked, “We meet again, Chelsea. You saw me standing right there, but you didn’t bother to say hi to me. Why is that? Is it because you are pretending not to know me?”

Chelsea was unfazed by this question. She looked at him with an alienated smile and retorted, “I really don’t know you. Why should | say hi to you?”

An icy expression beclouded Edmund's face once he heard this. He said with a sneer, “Chelsea, don’t tell me you suffered from amnesia during your stay abroad. We were married for three years. How can you claim that you don’t know me?”

Chelsea’s expression turned colder than his. Staring dead into his eyes, she fired back at him.

“Spare me all that nonsense. Did you ever know the real me? Since we were once married, why didn’t you know that | couldn’t eat beef or mutton?”

Edmund’s mind went blank. He didn’t know how to respond to her question. He could only stare at her as she left without looking back.

Once again, Chelsea’s indifference towards Edmund made his blood boil. If looks could kill, his glare would have lit up Chelsea’s body on fire.

Edmund found it hard to believe that the submissive and timid woman he once knew was now so eloquent. She had changed into a completely different person now that they were divorced. She even dared to stare at him dead in the eye.

What he didn’t know was that she had been gentle while they were married because she loved him at that time. Now that Chelsea had gotten over him, she would no Longer be nice to him. Under the gaze of Edmund and Yusuf, Chelsea got into the Uber that she ordered and left. Yusuf got over the shock as the car

drove off. He asked incredulously, “What happened? Tell me my eyes were deceiving me. Why did Chelsea just scold you? She used to cower in your presence, didn’t she?”

Everyone in Edmund's inner circle knew that Chelsea used to be a devoted wife to him. They had witnessed her being submissive all the time. Even when Edmund treated her badly, she never got angry.

As a result, the way she was so bold and rude to Edmund just now shocked Yusuf to the bone. What shocked him even more was that his friend didn’t bother to reprimand her.

Yusuf knew Edmund to be a cold man who would never go easy on his opponents in the business world. No one ever went against him and continued to lead a normal life.

The mention of how submissive and nice Chelsea used to be fanned Edmund's fury. There was a boulder in his chest and his breathing got heavier. A second later, he lost his temper. He kicked the trash can beside him.
