Capítulo 159
His friend, Edmund wasn't in the picture now that another man was about to help Chelsea.
Why wasn’t Edmund doing the same? Didn’t he know that now was the perfect tto start making amends to her? How could he be so oblivious?
Chris felt that Edmund was supposed to be by Chelsea’s side as she fought off the people against her.
Unbeknown to him, they had gotten into a fight because Chelsea refused to accept Edmund’s friend request on Facebook. Their sore relationship was worsening by the day.
In a bid to help his friend and satisfy his curiosity, Chris asked, “Why aren’t you asking Edmund for help? After all, you were once married to him and he knows all about how Hilton and Garry have been pests. You need to go all out in fighting them. If Edmund takes sides with you, it will give you the upper hand over them.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn Chris’s opinion, it would be an easy kill if Edmund cout to testify that he gave Hilton and Garry a Lot of money in the past few years. After all, hadn’t he done that for Chelsea’s sake?
Would he have spoken to them at all, let alone put up with their excesses if it weren’t for her?
Chelsea pointed at her chest and uttered with self-mockery, “You wantto ask Edmund for help? He would never help me. He hatesso much.”
The bad blood between them had gotten thicker after that night when he drunkenly asked her why she refused to accept his friend request on Facebook.
Chris opened his mouth to speak, but words failed him.
He didn’t expect that Chelsea firmly believed that Edmund hated her. It dawned on him that his friend must have hurt her so much for her to still be carrying the psychological scar even after a whole year.
After dropping Chelsea off, the first thing Chris did was call Edmund.
“Hey, Chelsea was at the hospital earlier to get the paternity test result. Unfortunately, she bumped into scruel people who hounded her in the elevator.” Chris cstraight to the point as soon as the line connected.
Edmund, who was sitting at his desk in the office, sprang up to his feet. “What?”
“You heardright, man. Slowlifes bullied her today. She was so scared that she had to hide in the dim stairwell. It took great effort forto take her out of there. She was really traumatized,” Chris remarked.
Edmund was short of words He was aware that Chelsea was getting bashed online. Fay informed him about the development after the interview was recommended to her on Twitter. He had ordered her to act fast to kill the rumor
The process was coming along well, so Edmund was certain that the matter would be dead soon. To his dismay, the issue was affecting Chelsea’s daily life.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe imagined how scared she had been when she hid in the staircase. The mere thought of it made his heart break. As he thought of the ruthless fellows that harassed her, his blood boiled.
Just when he was about to say something, Chris added, “What are you going to do? This matter is serious. Anyway, Chelsea said that Luka is helping her to clear the rumor.” This news made Edmund a little relieved but very jealous. He rolled his eyes and asked, “Since she has already received help,
why did you call me?”
Chris sighed deeply before responding, “Con, man! You know exactly why | called you. From my conversation with Chelsea, | realized that she has a very bad impression of you. | told her to ask for your help. Do you know what she said? She said no on the basis that you hate her so much.”
After a short pause, Chris continued, “Well, | think it’s safe to say that... That you are an unqualified ex-husband.”
As soon as Chris finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Edmund was so irritated that he almost threw his phone against the wall.
Was he that scary?
