Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Robbing The Cradle

"Are you idle?" Edmund asked in an impetuous manner before ending the call.

There was no denying the fact that Yusuf's words got to him.It was as if his emotions were tampered with.His mind couldn't get over the fact that Orlando and Chelsea could be in the same room for an entire night.

The thought of that felt like a pain in his side.

Edmund checked the news on his phone as quickly as possible.He soon saw pictures of Orlando.He was dressed in a low-key way.

There was a big bag hanging on his shoulder.It seemed like he was going to visit someone.

Only his back and the side of his face were photographed though.But they were clear enough for him to be recognized.

Chelsea was in need of someone's company after the accident she encountered earlier today.

Even if that was the case, it was unseemly for him to visit her at such an ungodly hour.She was twenty- six years of age while he was only twenty.

Did it not occur to her that she may be accused of robbing the cradle? Wasn't Chelsea scared of the young man’s teeming fans given his popularity? Some of them may be crazy enough to rip her to shreds for going close to him.

With each passing second, Edmund's mood became more and more complicated.He heaved a sigh before calling Luka in a very calm tone.

After that, he turned back to the private room and said to Diane, "Sorry, I have got to leave immediately.

Something came up at work that requires my attention."

"What?"

Diane couldn't believe her ears.She was both shocked and disappointed.

"But you are yet to finish your meal!"

"That doesn't matter right now,"he replied.

Then he turned around and left.

Diane stood still in a daze despite feeling so aggrieved.Her eyes became teary.She felt that in the past year, her relationship with Edmund was becoming alienated by the minute.

Especially after she tried to give herself to him.But why was that so? He and Chelsea had been divorced for a long time now.Her mind went back to a day when Edmund had too much to drink at a party.

When she noticed what was going on, she took advantage of the situation.

After she succeeded in taking off their clothes, Edmund still pushed her away.

Despite being hell bent on having her way with him, he didn't budge.He resisted her severally.Her figure was alluring.It definitely wasn't the cause of what was happening between them.She really couldn't tell exactly what it was.

Shortly after Edmund left, Diane became bored.So she picked up her bag and exited the restaurant.

While outside, she could tell that his car just zoomed off.So she waited for a minute or two before driving after him.

Diane wanted to ascertain where he was going.She held the steering wheel tightly as thoughts rushed through her mind.

Everything would be okay if he was actually leaving for work.

But all hell would break loose if this had anything to do with Chelsea.

Meanwhile, in the study, Chelsea turned on the computer.

After contemplating for some time, she had decided to start modifying the script.

There was no point waiting for Edmund to tell her to rewrite it.

Of course, it would be better if he didn't mention that to her.

Nonetheless, whether or not he did, she had nothing to lose in getting ready beforehand.It was not an easy task for every scriptwriter to make a complete script.

They treated like a loving parent cherishing their child.

Just then, she heard a sound.It was a knock on the door.

Chelsea went to get it only to find Orlando.

"What on earth are you doing here?" she asked him.

He entered the apartment before he began to speak worriedly.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I heard from Zuri that you were involved in a car accident.So I rushed back from where I was to see you.Are you okay?"

His words were heartfelt.But she replied quickly, "I'm fine.I just had a little scratch on my skin, that's all."

After looking at her arm and confirming that it was a minor injury, Orlando said apologetically, "There's something else I have to tell you.I'm afraid it's unfortunate news."

"What is it?"

There was an expectant look on Chelsea's face.She was also alarmed.

Orlando touched his nose awkwardly and said, "When I entered the building just now, several fans recognized me.I think they may have blocked the way downstairs."

His words came to Chelsea as a shock.

For a moment, she was rendered speechless.
