Chapter: 33
The grievance she held against Edmund in her heart had now completely
evaporated. She turned to blame Chelsea instead. “Chelsea was so annoying
today. Can you believe that I spoke to that bitch and she had the nerve to ignore
me? She looked down on me as if a year abroad made her superior to me. Why
the hell did she even return to the country? I smell something fishy, Diane. She
might try to get on my brother’s bed again!”
A cold sweat broke out on Diane’s forehead when she heard that last sentence.
The next second, an image of Edmund having sex with Chelsea flashed through
her mind. She knew fully well that they had been intimate during their marriage.
Since the divorce was finalized, Diane had tried to seduce Edmund on several
occasions, but he never took the hint. It was almost as if he was disgusted by the
sight of her body.
Even before Chelsea came along, Edmund and Diane never had sex.
This wasn’t because Edmund never made sexual advances to her. At that time,
Diane was just playing hard to get. She put on airs and refused to give herself to
him. She feared that he would dump her once he had his way with her.
When Edmund became single again, she had willingly given him her body. But
he refused to have sex with her. It made her afraid that he would fall for Chelsea
again.
At the thought of this, Diane couldn’t help clenching her fists.
“Diane, my brother grounded me as punishment. You know me. I can’t always
stay in that house. I need to go out and live my life. You have to put in a good
word for me. Otherwise, I’ll be bored to death.” Sonya continued to chatter, still
focused on her own problems.
“Okay, I’ll persuade him and get back to you. I have to go now. Bye,” Diane said
perfunctorily and hung up.
She lost interest in making the pudding. She swung into action the next second.
After removing her apron, she walked out of the kitchen. She then asked a
private investigator to investigate Chelsea.
Chelsea took a taxi to her residence after leaving the hospital. On the way, she
called Zuri to tell her that the problem with her arm wasn’t that serious.
Zuri let out a sigh of relief. “Thank goodness you are fine. Otherwise, I’ll tear
Sonya apart.”
“Calm down, Zuri. I appreciate that you are willing to fight Sonya on my behalf.
But I can handle her myself.” Chelsea tried to dissuade her
“If you say so. Just know that I’ll be here if you need backup. Anyway, since
Sonya knows that you are back, Diane must have found out by now. That woman
is vile. Be careful so she doesn’t make trouble for you again,” Zuri said out of
concern.
Chelsea laughed and said, “I don’t think Diane would be bothered about my
return. She has Edmund all to herself now. There’s no point making trouble for
me.”
“How are you so sure about that? You aren’t going to pester Edmund, but what if
he pesters you?” Zuri joked.
Chelsea let out a hearty peal of laughter. What she just heard was the joke of the
century to her.
Over a year ago, Diane had sent her a pregnancy test result saying that she was
carrying Edmund’s child.
It wasn’t long after that Edmund told her that he would never have a child with
her because she wasn’t worthy. She was so heartbroken that he dared to say
such a thing after impregnating someone else.
This was the Last straw that broke the camel’s back. She had made up her mind
to divorce him that night.
