After Zuri didn’t get any response from Edmund, she continued, “Mr. Nelson, you have to understand that it’s normal for Chelsea to seek love.”
Edmund couldn’t hold back anymore. He blurted out angrily, “But she said she Loved me. Is this how she shows her Love? Chelsea divorcedand vanished into thin air. And now that she’s back, she threw herself into another man’s arms!”
Zuri cackled on the other end of the phone. She then said mockingly, “Mr. Nelson, you seem to be forgetting something. You and Chelsea have no vows binding you together anymore. So, she didn’t throw herself into another man’s arms as you claim. A whole year is enough for a woman to get remarried and even get pregnant for another man after divorce. But Chelsea didn’t even give love another chance until now.”
These words made Edmund even more depressed. He hung up the phone without uttering another word. It hurt him so much to learn that Chelsea had decided to move on with another man. However, he didn’t want to accept it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a few minutes, he picked up the phone, intending to ask Chelsea if what Zuri said was true. But his hand froze. It dawned on him that he had no right to pry into her private life. They were already divorced. Chelsea hadn’t agreed to patch things up with him, so she didn’t owe him anything.
The fact that she refused to disclose her exact location was enough to indicate her stand.
She wanted to keep him at arm’s Length no matter what. This went on to say that she wouldn’t entertain any questions from him about her Love life.
Edmund was so depressed that he abandoned his food on the dining table. He went upstairs, pulling off the tie on his neck. He fell to the bed as soon as he entered his room.
His mind was in a muddle as he lay motionlessly on the bed. When his eyes fell on the chandelier hanging down from the ceiling, his mind traveled to the past.
Chelsea had bought this chandelier. Edmund vividly remembered that they had just had hot sex when she whispered to him about changing the Light in the bedroom. The former one used to be a heavy metal-styled light. According to her, it looked too depressing.
He agreed readily. Such things didn’t matter to him. Besides, he always granted her requests if she made them after he fucked her.
Edmund didn’t want to think about the past anymore. He looked away only for his eyes to fall on the curtains on the French window. Chelsea bought them too.
In fact, almost everything in this villa was Chelsea’s idea. Before he married her, the villa was furnished to his taste. But she changed most of them little by little.
Edmund never took notice of the changes while they were married. It wasn’t until after the divorce that he realized Chelsea had made the house look more Like a home.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“My goodness!” Edmund raked his fingers through his hair at this moment. He wanted to dispel the thoughts. Why was he inexplicably sad after their marriage ended over a year ago?
It was true that Chelsea and Luka were in a relationship. However, Zuri hadn’t told Edmund the entire truth. She deliberately kept an important detail away from him.
Although Chelsea was with Luka now, they were only pretending to be a couple.
Luka’s mother was gravely ill. Her greatest wish was to see her son get married and settle down. Only then could she be at peace.
Thus, Luka called Chelsea and ask her for a huge favor. He wanted her to pretend to be his girlfriend so his mother could rest in peace. Chelsea readily agreed.
Luka had been nothing but kind to her right from the first day they met. He gave her another shot at life by employing her. More so, he always cto her aid whenever she was in trouble.
Thus, Chelsea went to his hometown to help him. When Edmund called her earlier, she had just gotten picked up by Luka at the bus stop of his hometown. With his eyes fixed on the road, Luka asked inquisitively, “Was that Edmund?”
Chelsea nodded.
