She had tried her best to make their marriage work. She had treated Edmund, his family, and his friends with utmost respect and unconditional love, but all of her efforts had been for naught. Edmund never showed her any sort of appreciation.
One night, she sat in the bathtub with a knife in her hand. She was ready to slash her wrist and end it all, but after shedding all the tears that she had held back for a long time, clarity descended upon her.
Then, she realized that she had one more thing to live for—herself. After hearing Chelsea’s words, Edmund stared at her with eyes full of shock.
He didn’t expect that his indifference had inflicted such great pain upon her. He disregarded her until she thought of killing herself.
Edmund opened his mouth to say something. However, he realized that nothing he could say would change anything now.
Fay knocked on the door with the food she had bought for Chelsea. Noticing that there was something off with the atmosphere in the ward, she looked at Edmund.
Did her boss say something awful to hang such thick tension in the air? Fay felt a Little disappointed with Edmund. He had been friends with Yusuf for many years. Why hadn't he Learned anything from his friend about making girls happy?
Although Yusuf was a playboy, he was considerate and gentle. That was why many women were still attracted to him even though they knew that he was just a big old flirt.
Edmund wasn’t good at treating women well at all. In fact, he could exasperate them with only one word. Fay sighed in her heart. Then, she walked up to Chelsea and said, “I bought some food for you, Chelsea. Go ahead and eat.”
Chelsea picked up the sandwich and smiled at Fay. “Thank you, Fay.” With that, Chelsea proceeded to eat while ignoring Edmund the entire time.

While Chelsea was eating, Fay said to her kindly, “You can’t go back to your place for a while, or Garry will go there and make trouble for you again.”
Hearing that, Chelsea paused for a while. Then, she said dejectedly, “You're right, | can’t go back.”
Garry wouldn’t let her go easily, and he definitely would continue Looking for her.
“How about you come to my place for a few days? Or even longer, | don’t mind,” Fay said her eyes lighting up.
“Thank you, Fay. But there’s no need for that.” Chelsea refused instinctively. There was no hesitation in her words even though her smile was still there.
She was very grateful to Fay, but if possible she didn’t want to have anything to do with Edmund. Staying at Fay’s meant that he had a way of keeping an eye on her.
Moreover, Chelsea knew very well that the matter before them could not be solved by hiding. Once Garry and Hilton were sure that she was still in the country, they would leave no stone unturned until they found her. Hearing her refusal, Edmund turned to look at her, his displeasure clearly shown in his eyes.
Chelsea looked down to avoid his glare and continued eating the sandwich.
