Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 277

Thinking of this, Edmund was in a bad mood.

With a gloomy face, he took out his mobile phone and asked Leo to arrange someone to follow Chelsea and Roy.

Although he believed that the relationship between Chelsea and Roy was not like what he thought, he just couldn't bear to see Chelsea alone with Roy.

Chelsea took Roy to have breakfast first, at the old city district where she lived when she was a child.

While eating breakfast, Chelsea said, "When I was a child, I lived nearby. At that time, my family was ordinary. After I went to primary school, Hilton made a lot of money, and we moved into the villa. But in a few years, he was infected with gambling and other bad habits. His company got worse and worse until he finally went bankrupt."

Hilton was doing construction business, and he earned a lot of money from each project.

He was also a little famous in Vertoak in his heyday, but fame and fortune brought him not only enjoyment but also endless temptation.

Obviously, Hilton failed to resist the temptation and gambled away a family fortune.

However, after the failure, he did not learn his lesson. Instead, he became hateful and unscrupulous because he had gotten used to life in luxury.

He said that he sent her to Edmund's bed to fulfill her wish, but in fact, it was because Edmund had

power and money, and he could use her to blackmail him a lot of money.

Roy pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time. Then he asked her with distress, "Did he ever beat you?"

"No, He didn't." Chelsea said honestly, "When I was a child, he didn't dare to beat me because of my mother's protection. He would just scold me, saying that it was useless to raise me and spend money on me."

"Later, I grew up, and he couldn't beat me anymore."

Through the brief description of Chelsea, Roy could already imagine what kind of life she had lived when she was a child.

Speaking of which, he really had to thank Hilton's wife. If she hadn't adopted Chelsea, and if she hadn't been kind enough to protect Chelsea, he couldn't imagine what her daughter would be now?

Chelsea saw that Roy was not in the mood, she quickly comforted him with a smile. "All these have passed. I am also very grateful for these experiences. They made me become stronger."

Roy did not say anything else. After breakfast, Chelsea took Roy to the place where she had studied before. She shared her experiences from primary school to university and mentioned about her grades to Roy. Thinking of this, Edmund was in a bad mood.

With a gloomy face, he took out his mobile phone and asked Leo to arrange someone to follow Chelsea and Roy.

Hearing this, Roy's face was full of pride. The talent in writing of him was inherited from Chelsea, which was what he was most proud of and most gratified about.

In fact, Chelsea was very curious about why Roy wanted to know about her past, but she thought that Roy might want to get closer to her, so she did not think about anything else.

In the afternoon, Chelsea sent Roy back to the hotel, and she went home.

They took a short break and prepared to attend the banquet at night.

As soon as Roy returned to the room, he received a call from Edmund.

Roy suspected that Edmund had sent someone to keep an eye on him and Chelsea. Otherwise, why would he be so on time? He just happened to call Roy after he said goodbye to Chelsea.

This was Vertoak, Edmund's territory. Maybe he could do such a thing.

Edmund politely invited Roy over the phone, "Mr. Ellis, let's attend the banquet and promote our new drama."

Although they had just decided to cooperate, the promotion could start now.

With the Nelson Group's funds and Roy's talent and reputation, this drama would definitely become famous before it was broadcast.

However, Roy didn't appreciate Edmund's kindness. He replied in a low voice, "Isn't Mr. Nelson supposed to have a beauty by his side in such an occasion?"

Edmund laughed and said, "The beauty I want will definitely not be with me. I can only invite you."

When Chelsea could accompany him to attend such a public occasion, then he would be satisfied.

Before Roy could say anything, Edmund added, "I know that you want to terminate the contract with me, and I also know that you don't lack the money to pay for a penalty, but I just want to remind you that our ultimate goal is to help Chelsea achieve her dream."

Edmund's words successfully made Roy stop making things difficult for him.

Roy thought that Edmund was right. Their common goal was to help Chelsea.

The reason why Edmund made such an arrangement was indeed to promote the new drama, and also to have a chance to talk to Roy at a close distance.

Let's talk about why Roy treated Chelsea so well.

Edmund also had one more important personal intention, which was that he was with Roy. Chelsea would definitely come to greet Roy and would definitely come to him.

Otherwise, Chelsea would definitely ignore him all night. The last time he drank her wine, although he gave her a pile of the tableware and the mug that she liked to make up for it, she only thanked him with a nonchalant attitude.

Heoring this, Roy's foce wos full of pride. The tolent in writing of him wos inherited from Chelseo, which wos whot he wos most proud of ond most grotified obout.

In foct, Chelseo wos very curious obout why Roy wonted to know obout her post, but she thought thot Roy might wont to get closer to her, so she did not think obout onything else.

In the ofternoon, Chelseo sent Roy bock to the hotel, ond she went home.

They took o short breok ond prepored to ottend the bonquet ot night.

As soon os Roy returned to the room, he received o coll from Edmund.

Roy suspected thot Edmund hod sent someone to keep on eye on him ond Chelseo. Otherwise, why would he be so on time? He just hoppened to coll Roy ofter he soid goodbye to Chelseo.

This wos Vertook, Edmund's territory. Moybe he could do such o thing.

Edmund politely invited Roy over the phone, "Mr. Ellis, let's ottend the bonquet ond promote our new dromo."

Although they hod just decided to cooperote, the promotion could stort now.

With the Nelson Group's funds ond Roy's tolent ond reputotion, this dromo would definitely become fomous before it wos broodcost.

However, Roy didn't oppreciote Edmund's kindness. He replied in o low voice, "Isn't Mr. Nelson

supposed to hove o beouty by his side in such on occosion?"

Edmund loughed ond soid, "The beouty I wont will definitely not be with me. I con only invite you."

When Chelseo could occompony him to ottend such o public occosion, then he would be sotisfied.

Before Roy could soy onything, Edmund odded, "I know thot you wont to terminote the controct with me, ond I olso know thot you don't lock the money to poy for o penolty, but I just wont to remind you thot our ultimote gool is to help Chelseo ochieve her dreom."

Edmund's words successfully mode Roy stop moking things difficult for him.

Roy thought thot Edmund wos right. Their common gool wos to help Chelseo.

The reoson why Edmund mode such on orrongement wos indeed to promote the new dromo, ond olso to hove o chonce to tolk to Roy ot o close distonce.

Let's tolk obout why Roy treoted Chelseo so well.

Edmund olso hod one more importont personol intention, which wos thot he wos with Roy. Chelseo would definitely come to greet Roy ond would definitely come to him.

Otherwise, Chelseo would definitely ignore him oll night. The lost time he dronk her wine, olthough he gove her o pile of the toblewore ond the mug thot she liked to moke up for it, she only thonked him with o noncholont ottitude.

After Chelsea returned home, she began preparing for the banquet. First, she went to pick out a dress

with Zuri.

Zuri had always been bright and dazzling in public, so the dresses she chose were all eye-catching.

Chelsea only wanted to choose black dress, but because she was going to wear the emerald jewelry sent by the Ellis family's grandmother, she chose a black middle-style cheongsam with an emerald necklace, elegant and noble.

After showing the set of emerald jewelry to Zuri, Zuri immediately covered her mouth and screamed.

"I have participated in an auction before. I seem to have seen this pair of emerald earrings." Zuri's interest was piqued. She took out her phone and searched for the emerald jewelry through the internet.

The results of the investigation shocked both Chelsea and Zuri. This set of emerald ornaments wasn't the entire set from the very beginning. Instead, they were collected one by one as a complete set. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

A pair of emerald earrings at auction fetched a sky-high price, and the emerald necklace was even rarer and more precious, and caused a stir at the auction that year, but was later auctioned by a mysterious person and disappeared.

No one would expect that it was taken by the Ellis family. Now it was in Chelsea's hands.

The emerald bracelet and jadeite ring with diamonds were all luxurious and expensive.

The reason why Chelsea chose to only wear a necklace was that she felt that she the whole set would be too much for her.

Zuri selected a formal dress with the emerald necklace for Chelsea.

Zuri sighed. "Just wearing a necklace is enough. Your temperament suits this kind of understated grandeur."

Zuri, on the other hand, was blingy from head to toe. 100% glamourous and dazzling.

They took Zuri's nanny car to the hotel where the banquet was held. On the way, Zuri said, "It is a gathKatharineg of film and television circle tonight. Diane will definitely be there as well."

"I know." Chelsea responded. She thought of this before, but she didn't have much feeling.

Diane had set up her own film and television company, so she would definitely attend such an occasion.

Zuri said worriedly, "I'm really afraid that she'll make trouble for you again. Why is she so bitchy?"

Chelsea was stunning tonight. The emerald necklace had really made her more beautiful. Diane would inevitably get mad once she saw Chelsea.
