Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Capítulo 101

When Diane held him, disgust filled Edmund’s eyes. He raised his hand and pushed her away. He said lightly, “It’s not on impulse, Diane. It’s on who you are as a person.”

How could she let Gerry and the assistant director sexually harass Chelsea? She was also a woman. How could she allow such a horrendous thing?

Today, for the first time, Edmund realized that he didn’t share the same values with Diane. No wonder he always felt that there was something missing between them.

Diane couldn't stop crying and pleaded over and over, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Edmund. | won't do it again, | swear...”

“Only a virtuous, kind and dependable woman can be the next Mrs. Nelson. | will never settle for less!” After saying these words, Edmund left without a backward glance. His statement hung in the air even after he walked out. It was obvious that he was trying to say that Diane wasn’t qualified to be his wife.

“Come back here, Edmund! How can you say that to me? Don’t walk out on me!” Diane cried hysterically, but her shout fell on deaf ears.

Edmund's mind was filled with thoughts about Chelsea. In his books, she was the perfect example of a dutiful wife. During the time they were married, Chelsea never did anything to taint the Nelson family’s image, nor discredit them.

She stayed out of the public eye and never got into trouble with any outsider. Her calm attitude was one of the reasons why he had little or no worries.

Chelsea was busy managing the home, so Edmund was able to concentrate on work. In the space of three years, he took Nelson Group to great heights he never imagined while he was a bachelor.

Edmund, like some men, didn’t realize the value of his devoted wife until she was gone. He thought she would never leave him. Thus, he remained rude to her whilst enjoying her steadfast love and care.

It wasn’t until recently that he realized that he had been bad to Chelsea. No good woman deserved to be treated the way he treated her.

Regret plagued his heart. It dawned on him that he shouldn’t have emotionally abused her even though he didn’t love her.

The constant emotional torture was why she left him. Edmund’s head was full. He decided to go to Yusuf's bar to drink with him. But his friend refused to serve him any alcohol.

“Dude, | won’t let you drink under my watch. You need to stay away from alcohol. Besides, didn’t you just get discharged from the hospital?” Yusuf spoke seriously and handed him a glass of water.

“That reminds me. Chris said that you weren’t fully recovered yet, but you insisted on leaving the hospital. Why did you do that? Anyway, | thought of offering you some juice. But | guess water is the best for you now.”

Edmund didn’t utter a word. He took a sip from the water, staring blankly into space. Chelsea was still on his mind.

The tastelessness of the water made him think of her even more. She was just like water-good for his health even though she wasn’t his first choice.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

At the thought of this, Edmund gulped down the glass of water. He then stretched out the glass to Yusuf and ordered, “Come on, pour me another glass!”

“Huh?” Yusuf was taken aback by this command. “Well, who would have thought that you would drink it all up so soon?”

Yusuf grumbled, but he did as he was told.
