Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

A cold sweat broke out on Sonya's forehead. Her eyes turned red with fury and sadness. "No, I won't go! I don't want to go
abroad!"
Lately, Edmund hadn't talked about sending her abroad. She thought he had changed his mind. To her surprise, he actually
wanted her to leave tomorrow.
After getting over the shock a little bit, she rushed over to Diane and shook her. "Diane, what's wrong with my brother? Did
something happen? Why did he suddenly ask me to leave the country tomorrow?"
Diane could do nothing but ball her eyes out. She was so helpless that she couldn't save herself. How could she help Sonya
now?
"Sonya, I have had it up to here with you. I didn't know that you could go as far as faking a pregnancy test result to destroy my
marriage a year ago. How could you be so immoral?" Edmund shouted.
Sonya's heart skipped a beat when she heard her brother's statement. She thought her involvement in his failed marriage would
always remain hidden. She didn't think that the secret would be revealed, let alone that she would be labeled the main culprit.
To save herself, she hurried to her brother and explained, "You have to believe me, Big bro. I have no hand in that. Diane was
the one that suggested it. She coaxed me to cooperate with her."
"Sonya!" Diane yelled at the top of her lungs and stood up, murdering her ally with her eyes.
Sonya shouted back, "What? Why did you yell my name like that? Did I lie about you coming up with the idea and coaxing me?"
Sonya applied more pressure on her to prove her innocence. "Diane, don't you dare try to put the blame on me now. I would
never have helped you if it weren't because you were good for my brother. You practically pushed me into it!"
Diane couldn't believe her ears. She gasped exasperatedly and almost tore her hair out.
Both of them were partners in the crime. The cat had been let out of the bag now. However, none of them wanted to bear the

consequences of their actions.
The once-so-friendly allies were now enemies who traded blame.
Edmund was angry with both of them, so he didn't care who forced who. With a cold expression, he looked at his sister and
declared, "Nothing you say will change my mind, Sonya. You must go abroad tomorrow. Go home and pack your bags. Don't
make a fool of yourself in public!"
Afterwards, he looked at Diane with his eyes filled with utter disgust. "This is the last straw, Diane. I want nothing to do with you
from now on. Stay the fuck away from me!"
Edmund then turned around and left. Diane and Sonya burst into tears. But no one cared about them.

Back in the banquet hall, Chelsea met Zuri as soon as she came out of the bathroom.
Zuri hurriedly walked to her and asked worriedly, "I saw Edmund enter the bathroom. Did he bully you?"
"No, not at all," Chelsea answered, shaking her head.
Zuri narrowed her eyes and further inquired, "What exactly happened in there? You look unhappy."
Chelsea took a deep breath and told her friend what happened in the bathroom. "Well, Edmund finally found out about the fake
pregnancy test result that Diane sent to me over a year ago."
This news stunned Zuri for a while. She suddenly clapped her hands and laughed heartily. "Finally, the cat is out of the bag! It
was a long time coming. Diane is done for now!"
Chelsea didn't utter a word. It seemed that Diane was indeed ruined. Judging by how Edmund looked angry, he must be
surprised to find Diane's true color.

"Thank goodness that bitch's doom is finally here. This will be a lesson to others like her. People should refrain from living a
double life. After all, they would get embarrassed once their secret is revealed," Zuri uttered, relishing her enemy's downfall.
Both friends were still talking when Orlando, who was dressed in a white suit, came over. Zuri quickly came up with an excuse
and left them.
Chelsea shook her head speechlessly. She knew that her friend was making a concerted effort to make her socialize with men
recently.
"Long time no see, Chelsea. How have you been?" Orlando greeted her with a complicated look on his face.
Chelsea smiled and responded, "Hey, I'm good. How are you?"
"Not bad," Orlando replied, staring at her. He cleared his throat awkwardly and continued, "Zuri told me a while ago that Mr.
Nelson is your ex-husband..."
Orlando had only found out during the online backlash a few days ago that Chelsea was a divorcee. He was even more shocked
to learn that Edmund was actually her ex-husband.
It was then he understood the strange thing that happened when he and Chelsea had a dinner after she returned to the country.
A waiter had brought a plate of expensive steak stating that it was from a certain Mr. Nelson.
Orlando also understood why Edmund suddenly appeared to help at the police station the last time.
"Yes, he is my ex-husband," Chelsea replied with a faint smile.
She sighed sadly and added, "Well, you shouldn't waste your time on me anymore."
"Don't say that, Chelsea. I don't mind that you once married. Your past doesn't define you," Orlando said, staring at her seriously.
Chelsea was speechless and lost in thought.

Young men nowadays were really strange. Why was Orlando so interested in a divorced woman when he could have any young
woman who had never been married?
