He stood in the living room and flashed Diane an icy stare.
“Tellwhat's going on.”

She remembered that every tshe cried before, Edmund’s heart would soften.
“Mr. Nelson, Miss Stevenson is clearly upset. Please don’t push her,” Gerry said, standing between Edmund and Diane to mediate the dispute After all, nobody in the room would dare to offend Edmund.

There were only two people left in the villa, Edmund and Diane.
Sitting on the sofa, Diane was whimpering like an injured puppy. She had begun taking short, sharp breaths. After observing her for a while, Edmund walked toward her.
He took a tissue and handed it to Diane. Seeing that Edmund took the initiative to give her a tissue, Diane thought that he had eased up and didn’t intend anymore to demand answers.
“Thank you,” she muttered, taking the tissue and wiping away her tears. The next second, Edmund said, “I want you to stop hyping our relationship.”
His words were Like Lightning out of the blue. Diane was so shocked that her tears abruptly stopped flowing. It turned out that Edmund’s tenderness was just an illusion.
“Edmund, I’m sorry. | was wrong...” Diane burst into tears again. She grabbed Edmund’s arm and added, “I know it’s wrong for me to bully Chelsea, but I’m just jealous. I’m jealous that she is your wife of three years. I’m jealous that she has obtained you so completely.”
While weeping, Diane held Edmund in her arms and continued to apologize to him. “Edmund, | love you so much that I’ve done something foolish on impulse. Can you forgivethis time?”
