Chapter 2 Getting A Divorce

Edmund's words shattered her last hope.

Everything she did to win Edmund's love went down the drain. It was as if she had made a fool of herselffor three whole years.

"I see." With these words, Chelsea released herself from his grip and walked out of the bathroomdejectedly.

Her shoulders were slouched and her walk was unsteady. However, there was a trace of determinationon her teary face. Edmund took a step forward, feeling pity for her subconsciously. But his eyesdarkened the next second. He remembered what Chelsea did to him three years ago, so he became coldagain.

The other members of the Nelson family were already at the dining table by the time Chelsea gotdownstairs. She was in a bad mood, so she didn't have the appetite to eat. She wiped her tears andconcealed her emotions. Afterward, she told Ethan Nelson, Edmund's grandfather to ask the driver totake her home.

A thousand conflicting thoughts ran in Chelsea's head on the way home. She didn't know whether to giveup or to continue fighting for her husband's love.

Edmund was clearly in love with Diane. Now that he was expecting a child with her, Chelsea suspectedthat he would ask for a divorce because he didn't want the child to be labeled as an illegitimate one.

After calculating all the odds against her, Chelsea decided to give up. She didn't want to continuewasting her time and efforts on someone who didn't love her.

When she got home, she took a shower and fell asleep.

Deep in her slumber, she felt someone bite her lips hard. It was as if the person was lusting after her andpunishing her at the same time.

The room was dark, so she couldn't see who it was. However, the breath was familiar. It was Edmund.Why was he back tonight? Shouldn't he be with his lover?

And then it struck her. Since Diane was currently pregnant, it would be inconvenient for her to satisfyEdmund in bed.

The thought of being his second choice angered Chelsea. She pushed him away, turned on the bedsidelamp, and got off the bed.

Chelsea straightened her messy pajamas and stood barefoot on the floor. Looking at Edmund, who wassitting on the bed sulkily, she said, "Edmund, I want a divorce."

"Enough already!" Edmund's eyebrows were knitted. He looked so displeased and impatient.

He had been on a business trip for several days. He was so horny that he wanted to relieve himselfimmediately.

He couldn't help kissing Chelsea when he saw her on the bed. Her instinctive moan had increased hisdesire. He was just about to take things up a notch when she pushed him away. Now, his groin wasaching so badly.

In Edmund's eyes, she only refused him to play hard to get.

The bitterness in Chelsea's heart was simmering up to the surface. But she took a deep breath to push itdown. She said firmly, "I'm serio

us, Edmund. Let's get a divorce!"

Edmund's face darkened.

He adjusted his position by leaning on the headboard of the bed. He squinted at her and asked, "Are yousure?"

Chelsea pursed her lips and stared back at him in silence.

"Chelsea, did you think this through at all? Have you suddenly forgotten that the company your fatherand brother have been running is on the verge of bankruptcy? If not for the timely intervention of myfamily, it would have been long gone. Do you have any idea how much I've invested in that company?"Edmund raised his voice.

His angry tone made Chelsea's heart skip a beat. Her body shook and her face flushed with shame.

As much as Chelsea hated to admit it, Edmund was right. Her father had sent her to his bed three yearsago because the company was facing a serious crisis.

It wasn't her intention to trick him into marrying her. She had tried to explain things to him in the past fewyears. However, Edmund didn't give her a listening ear. She was guilty in his eyes.

"I don't give a damn about the company anymore. I've served you like a slave for three years just so youcan continue to help them. If the company crashes now, they deserve it." Chelsea put on an indifferentexpression.

A storm suddenly gathered in Edmund's eyes. "Are you trying to tell me that this marriage was only adeal to you?"

"What else is it?" Tears welled up in Chelsea's eyes. She patted her chest to prevent herself frombreaking down. "There has never been love in this marriage of ours. You love someone else. You neverlook at me except when you want to have sex with me. I'm just a pleasure tool to you. What else is thismarriage if not a deal?"

"Okay. Fine!" Edmund gnashed his teeth in anger.

"Are you really willing to give up this comfortable life? I gave you everything a woman could ever needexcept love. Is love more important to you than survival?"

His contempt and ridicule made Chelsea's blood boil. Indeed, he had taken care of all her expenses forthe past few years. But that didn't mean she couldn't survive on her own. Biting back the insults shebadly wanted to say, she flashed him a gentle smile and looked straight into his frightening eyes. "Thankyou for the reminder. But as you can see, I'm not disabled, nor am I stupid. I can take care of myself. Nomatter what I won't starve to death."

The years she spent as a part of the Nelson family were hell. None of the family members liked herexcept for Ethan.

Chelsea was determined to get back on her feet after divorcing Edmund. After all, she had graduatedfrom a top university before becoming a housewife.

Edmund sneered and rolled his eyes. "Have it your way then. I'll call the lawyer and tell him to preparethe divorce agreement. Let's sign it at half past eight tomorrow morning."
