He had dealt with what had happened earlier tonight and even apologized to Chelsea, but she acted as if it all meant nothing to her.
Seeing that Edmund hadn't moved or said anything, Chelsea took out her phone and said, “Just forget it. I'll call a taxi to take me there.”
Before Chelsea could finish her words, Edmund pulled her all of a sudden.
He had only intended to tell Chelsea that he would drive her, but in his rage, he subconsciously pulled her hard. To make things even worse, Chelsea was wearing high heels, so when he pulled her, she sprained her ankle.

As she was in so much pain, Chelsea didn’t care about it at that moment. She Looked down at her ankle and said, “I think | sprained my ankle.”
Edmund was embarrassed. What bad luck did he have to make her sprain her ankle? And that too after getting her to forgive him.

Edmund apologized before he could think of anything else, “I’m sorry, | didn’t mean to. | used too much strength.” He lifted Chelsea into his arms and said anxiously, “I'll take you to the hospital before it gets any worse.” Chelsea who was suddenly picked up by him felt a little embarrassed.
“| can walk by myself. Putdown please.”
She was being held so intimately by her ex-husband while she was wearing a thin dress. All of a sudden she bectoo aware of his hand on her waist. It was just too embarrassing.
However, Edmund didn’t listen to her. He walked a few steps to the car with Chelsea safe in his arms. How could he let her in an injured state walk on her own?

Edmund rubbed her ankle gently and said, “Why are you so shy?”
Chelsea's heart skipped a beat. She imagined he would say something shocking like, he had already seen everything there was to see.
“Let's go to the hospital,” Edmund said and Chelsea had to shake her head as the imaginary Edmund faded to the back of her mind. Fortunately, he didn’t say any of that. After Loosening her ankle, he glanced at her again to make sure she was okay before going to the driver’s seat.
Not long after he drove away, Alena called Edmund.
He knew that the only reason she was calling was to bland emotionally blackmail him, so he said first, “Mom, Sonya is unteachable. Sending her abroad is the best course of action.”
Alena was choked by tears at his words, but she still desperately pleaded for Sonya, “She must have done that on an impulse. How about asking her to apologize to Chelsea?”
