Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart
Chapter 171

Chapter 171

Edmund's initial plan was to render an apology to Chelsea for what he had said to her. This truth cameas a shock to him. It was hard for him to believe Diane could go to great lengths to destroy his marriagewith Chelsea. No wonder Chelsea had insisted on the divorce.

"It doesn't matter anymore if she's the reason our marriage didn't work out. What matters is that we'redivorced now. It's Diane who owes you an explanation. So please, leave me out of it," Chelsea toldEdmund unconcernedly.

She continued trying to wriggle herself out of his grip but he wouldn't let go. "Why didn't you let meknow about this when you found out?"

Chelsea pursed her lips and took a long look at him. She succeeded in shaking off his hand andwalked away without looking back. What was the point in telling him? Why should she keep chasing theissue?

Diane's fake pregnancy result was not the root cause of their divorce. It didn't seem like Edmundunderstood all that. He kept throwing the blame around for the divorce. That was why she violentlyshook off his hand. He just upset her.

Edmund could feel Chelsea's annoyance but he couldn't explain why she was angry. He was going totry to figure things out, but for now, he took an angry look at Diane and coldly demanded, "Tell me thetruth!"

Diane knew she was at the end of a rope and so, calmly, she released the grip of her teeth on herbottom lip and admitted truthfully, "Yes, I did it."

Edmund asked her again, "Why?"

"It was Sonya's suggestion. I had accompanied her to the hospital when she was having an abortion. Itwas there she told me that I could get a fake pregnancy test result to upset Chelsea. She also saidChelsea desperately wanted a baby because your grandfather had been on your neck about having ababy with her. So Sonya made me claim her pregnancy test result as mine."

Even in her admission, Diane still found a way to put all the blame on Sonya.

Edmund was furious as he heard all she said. It didn't matter who brought the idea, his sister was stillinvolved. He had always cared for her, looked out for her, and tried to give her stability and freedom,even though her behavior irritated him.

Sonya never respected Chelsea and was always troubling her, while he acted like he didn't notice allthe while, but he never expected her to go to any length to get involved in an immoral act. Diane'sactions were also really appalling.

Diane couldn't handle Edmund's silence and so she suddenly burst into tears. "I'm sorry! I was so inlove with you and so I lost my mind then. I was always jealous whenever I remembered that both of youwere together, so I didn't hesitate to take up Sonya's suggestion."

Diane wept profusely, "I have always regretted breaking up with you when I did. Edmund, I really loveyou…"

Edmund watched Diane crying but didn't even care. He shouldn't be here in the bathroom for this longand so with disgust, he ordered Diane to come out.

He called his driver at once and instructed him, "Find Sonya and ask her to come to the garden, behindthe hall."

Sonya was kissing a man she had just met at the event, in her car, in the parking lot when the driverfound her. If the driver hadn't come when he did, they would have gone much further.

At the interruption, Sonya, dissatisfied, wound the window down and said to the driver, "Tell him that I'mbusy!"

The driver noticed her messy clothes but chose to look away as he continued, "It would be better if yougo now as Mr. Nelson seems to be very angry."

Sonya knew how Edmund's temper could be when he was angry. He could be really scary. So shefixed her clothes, said goodbye to the man that was with her in the car, and reluctantly went toEdmund. At Sonya's arrival at the garden, she could see that Diane was sitting on a bench, crying,while a very angry Edmund was standing beside her.

"Edmund..." Sonya called out, as she walked over to where they were. Her steps were ridden with guilt.

On sighting her, Edmund became furious and shouted, "You'll leave the country and go abroadtomorrow!"
