Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Chelsea's Defender

A sea of eyes turned to look in the direction that the voice came.It was Edmund.He came over with Eugene and the director of the film.

"Edmund, thank goodness you are here! Look at my face.That bitch splashed coffee on me!"

Sonya ran to meet Edmund and complained like a spoiled child.This was typical of her.

Whenever she did something wrong in the past, she always turned the situation to suit herself by lying to Edmund.

Chelsea was used to her trick.

Chelsea felt that Edmund would take his sister's side like he always did, so she decided to excuse herself.She whispered to Zuri, "I have to go to the bathroom to clean this mess."She didn't want to trade words with Sonya anymore.

As far as she was concerned, they were even now that she had given Sonya a taste of her own medicine.

The scald on her arm wasn't too severe, but she wanted to deal with it now so she wouldn't have to stay here with these annoying siblings.

It was the perfect excuse to leave.

Zuri wasn't going to stand aside and watch Sonya make it seem like Chelsea was at fault.

She retorted immediately, "Sonya, why are you such a liar? Why don't you tell them that you splashed coffee on Chelsea first? And it was hot coffee at that!"

With a swift move, Zuri pulled Chelsea back and carefully stretched out her scalded arm for everyone to see.

"Because of your wickedness, Chelsea's arm got scalded like this.How dare you make it seem like you didn't do anything wrong? Don't you have a heart? Mark my words.If this scalding gets worse than this, I will destroy your face!"

Edmund's eyes widened in shock when he saw Chelsea's injured arm.He hadn't noticed it at first.Not only was her white T-shirt stained, but her arm was also red as if it was burned by fire.

"Apologize to her now!"

Edmund ordered, his eyes blazing.

"What are you waiting for, bitch? My brother said you should apologize to me.Do it now!"

Sonya shouted as she folded her arms and looked at Chelsea complacently.

Edmund gave her a cold glare.He said firmly, "No, it's the other way around.Sonya, apologize to Chelsea now!"

All the onlookers gasped in shock.

Chelsea was also stunned, but she looked away indifferently.It was rather ironic that he never defended her when she was still his wife.But now that he had no marital obligations to her, he was taking her side against his sister.His sudden concern for her well-being was superfluous in Chelsea's eyes.

She didn't need his protection anymore, so her heart wasn't moved, nor did she attempt to thank him.

"What?"

With a horrified expression, Sonya looked at her brother and asked, "Are you being serious right now? You want me to apologize to this thing? Why are you taking her side? Yes, I splashed coffee on her.But she did the same to me!"

Fighting tooth and nail was one of Zuri's fortes.

As a result, a heated brawl was no biggie for her.She stepped forward and retorted again, "Shut up, you brat! If you hadn't spoken ill of Chelsea and poured coffee on her for no reason, would she have splashed coffee on you? She gave you a taste of your own medicine.Stop playing innocent!"

After Zuri successfully shut Sonya up, she turned to Edmund and said sarcastically, "Your sister is so funny, Mr.Nelson.Chelsea and I were having a good chat while drinking coffee when Sonya came out of nowhere and began to insult Chelsea for no reason at all.It was after she poured hot coffee on Chelsea that she got exactly what she deserved."

Sonya glared at Zuri with bloodshot eyes.She had the urge to pounce on her.She was about to do it when Edmund shot her a searing glare.She froze and bit her lower lip guiltily.

A few seconds later, she said stubbornly, "Over my dead body will I apologize to this bitch!"

"Stop calling her that, Sonya! This is the height of it.You are grounded from now onwards.You must stay at home and reflect on yourself!"

Edmund shouted, pointing at her seriously.

This declaration hit Sonya like a bolt out of the blue.She held her forehead and staggered backward as if she was about to faint.

Ignoring his sister's bad acting, Edmund turned to Chelsea, who had been silent since he came, and said, "Let me take you to the hospital."

"No, there's no need for that, Mr.Nelson.This is not that serious.Thank you, anyway."

Chelsea immediately refused.Her tone and the way she addressed him made it seem as if they were indeed strangers.

This annoyed Edmund a little.

After rolling his eyes, he said, "You are injured.It's best to get medical attention so it doesn't get infected.Why are you so stubborn?"

"It wont get infected, Mr.Nelson.I'll apply first-aid myself." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Chelsea didn't budge.She wasn't so sure if ordinary first-aid would be enough for the scalding.

However, she wanted to go to the hospital herself, not with Edmund.

Edmund's face darkened.

Their gazes locked for a long time.This little argument ended in a stalemate.
