Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 77 You Are An Accomplice

Chelsea sneered in her heart. Diane clearly knew whether she had done it or not.

Ignoring Diane, Edmund turned to Fay and said, "Drive Miss Stevenson home."

Edmund addressed Diane as Miss Stevenson in a voice that dripped with indifference.

In a hurry, Diane held onto him and pleaded, "Edmund..."

Edmund had been calling her by her first name for so many years, but now he was suddenly formal toward her, which made her flustered.

Although he didn't say anything, she felt that he knew everything.

Edmund cast a glance at Fay, and Fay immediately pulled Diane away. "Come on, Miss Stevenson. Let's go. I'll give you a ride home."

Obviously, Edmund wanted to stay and drive Chelsea home, so Fay had to take Diane away as soon as possible.

Knowing that Edmund would get angry if she continued to pester him, Diane lowered her head. She let go of Edmund and reluctantly left with Fay.

Then, Edmund turned his head toward Chelsea who was standing in the corner.

She was there by herself, making him feel sorry for her.

Although they had a fight last time, Edmund decided to approach Chelsea. He then said, "Get in the car. I'll drive you home."

Chelsea felt that the irony was almost laughable. "No, thanks," she quickly refused.

Edmund patiently persuaded her, "It's late now. It's safer for you if I drive you home."

Chelsea couldn't help mocking Edmund, "Mr. Nelson, you and Miss Stevenson really have a well-oiled system, don't you? She hurt me, and you're comforting me. Do you take me for a fool or just a plain pushover?"

Did Edmund think Chelsea would forgive him after he put in a good word for Diane?

Edmund frowned and asked, "What do you mean? I didn't expect that Diane would do such a thing to you. I didn't know about her plans at all."

Chelsea chuckled mirthlessly and backfired, "You were the only person who would know." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She didn't believe that he was as innocent as he claimed.

Edmund was about to explain himself, but Zuri raced her car in and pulled over.

Zuri jumped out of the car and assumed a protective stance in front of Chelsea. "Chelsea, don't waste your time listening to this man's nonsense. Let's go."

Then, Zuri took Chelsea away. After taking a few steps, Chelsea suddenly stopped and looked back at Edmund. She spoke her next words with mocking emphasis. "Even if you didn't know, you were still an

accomplice."

"An accomplice?" Edmund was confused.

"Yes. You have spoiled Diane so much that she has become so arrogant. You didn't respect me before, so she thought she could bully me as she pleased."

After saying that, Chelsea got into Zuri's car, and Zuri sped away.

Edmund was left standing there with a perplexed look in his eyes.

But he soon realized that Chelsea was right. It was all his fault.

At this time, Luka called him. Edmund answered the phone and barked impatiently, "I know what you want to say. I won't cooperate with Gerry and the assistant director in the future."

Luka solemnly declared, "That's for the best. I also don't want to let them participate in the play. I've decided to be the director myself."

Startled, Edmund asked, "Are you serious, Luka?"

Edmund didn't doubt Luka's directorial capability. Luka had been an actor for nearly twenty years and a constant learner in the industry. Surely he could direct a play.

He just doubted that Luka was willing to undertake such a big task as director just to protect the scriptwriter, Chelsea.
