Chapter: 16
Both men had cigarettes between their fingers as they waited for their drivers to
arrive.
Chelsea Looked away and walked to the other side to avoid them.
“Hey, Chelsea!” Yusuf suddenly called out to her, making her heart skip a beat.
Keeping her shock and displeasure on lockdown, Chelsea stopped and put on a
smile. “Hello, Mr. Collins.”
Talking to Yusuf was the last thing Chelsea wanted to do now. She didn’t want to
have anything to do with Edmund, including relating with his best friend.
However, Yusuf was one of the important men in Vertoak. She couldn’t afford to
ignore his greeting. She might need his help in the future. After all, the wealthy
and powerful in this city ruled its affairs.
Yusuf walked up to her with a charming smile.
“I see that you are leaving now. I’m Leaving too. How about I give you a ride?”
“No, thank you. I already ordered an Uber. It will arrive soon.” Chelsea refused
politely, without sparing a second to think.
Edmund had thrown his cigarette and walked over to them at this time. He
squinted at Chelsea unhappily and asked, “We meet again, Chelsea. You saw
me standing right there, but you didn’t bother to say hi to me. Why is that? Is it
because you are pretending not to know me?”
Chelsea was unfazed by this question. She looked at him with an alienated smile
and retorted, “I really don’t know you. Why should I say hi to you?”
An icy expression beclouded Edmund’s face once he heard this. He said with a
sneer, “Chelsea, don’t tell me you suffered from amnesia during your stay
abroad. We were married for three years. How can you claim that you don’t know
me?”
Chelsea’s expression turned colder than his. Staring dead into his eyes, she fired
back at him.
“Spare me all that nonsense. Did you ever know the real me? Since we were
once married, why didn’t you know that I couldn’t eat beef or mutton?”
Edmund’s mind went blank. He didn’t know how to respond to her question. He
could only stare at her as she left without looking back.
Once again, Chelsea’s indifference towards Edmund made his blood boil. If looks
could Kill, his glare would have lit up Chelsea’s body on fire.
Edmund found it hard to believe that the submissive and timid woman he once
knew was now so eloquent. She had changed into a completely different person
now that they were divorced. She even dared to stare at him dead in the eye.
What he didn’t know was that she had been gentle while they were married
because she loved him at that time.
Now that Chelsea had gotten over him, she would no Longer be nice to him.

As a result, the way she was so bold and rude to Edmund just now shocked
Yusuf to the bone. What shocked him even more was that his friend didn’t bother
to reprimand her.
