Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart
Chapter 296

Chapter 296

Since he was ready to go downstairs, Roy got up and went to the bedroom to change clothes.

Chelsea also went to the bathroom to wash her face and check her look. She was only accompanyingRoy to mourn her mother today, so she didn't put on any makeup.

Fortunately, she carried a few simple things with her in her bag, such as lipstick, foundation andeyebrow pencil. Just as Chelsea was about to simply makeup in front of the mirror, Edmund suddenlypushed open the bathroom door and walked in, which startled Chelsea.

He was too rude to knock on the door.

Fortunately, she was just putting on makeup, or she would be awkward.

Chelsea stopped her hand from applying lipstick and turned to ask him, "What's the matter?"

Edmund lowered his eyes and stared at Chelsea's porcelain-like face. He felt as if it was so far.

Chelsea used to be shy and panic-stricken in front of him, and she didn't dare to look at him. Now, shebecame an elegant and beautiful woman. He wanted to be with her again. But seemly it was not easy,which made him unhappy.

Edmund pursed his lips and didn't say anything. After a while, he suddenly took a step forward, raisedhis hands, and held Chelsea tightly in his arms. Chelsea felt that her waist was too painful.

Chelsea struggled. "What are you doing?"

Edmund hugged her tightly, not letting her go. He buried himself in her neck and said seriously in herear, "Chelsea, I'll always stand behind you, protect you and support you forever."

Edmund had always thought that he was the strongest backer around Chelsea. But now, Roy came outof nowhere, and he was her biological father. Edmund felt a strong sense of crisis.

He was afraid that Chelsea would never need him again.

Chelsea felt that these words were quite baffling. It seemed as though she didn't need his so-calledprotection and support.

Edmund really held her too tightly, and Chelsea was worried that Roy could change his clothes and goout at any time. When he saw them hugging each other here, what would he say?

Chelsea had no choice but to raise her face in his arms and protest, "Let go of me. I need to do mymake up."

Edmund obviously said, "You don't have to."

This time, he said it sincerely.

Chelsea's skin was smooth and flawless, like first-class porcelain.

Together with her refreshing smile and gentle facial features, she appeared to be mild and amiable.Since he was ready to go downstairs, Roy got up and went to the bedroom to change clothes.

Chelsea angrily pushed Edmund away. "Edmund, that's enough! Stop saying such embarrassing wordsagain!"

On that day at the banquet, he said that he was not tired of seeing her. Chelsea was extremelyembarrassed.

Edmund clasped her waist tightly with his hands and stared at Chelsea in a low voice, asking, "Embarrassing? Why?"

Chelsea replied, "Didn't you hate me so much before? Now you say I'm good-looking all day long.Aren't you embarrassed?"

Edmund clarified for himself word by word, "I admit that I used to treat you badly, but when did I saythat you didn't look beautiful?"

Chelsea opened her mouth, momentarily speechless.

It seemed that Edmund had never said that she was not good-looking. He just looked at her coldly.

"Do you think that I can get along with someone at will? If it weren't for your face—" He gritted histeeth. "If it weren't for your appearance, do you think I would compromise and marry you?"

Chelsea was speechless.

Edmund admitted that he had compromised because of her beauty. Chelsea did not know whether sheshould be happy or sad.

Chelsea stared at him and snorted with a sneer, "A man obviously likes a beautiful woman."

In the face of her sarcasm, Edmund was not angry. Instead, he smiled.

He argued with her seriously, "All of them fell in love at first sight. If you put it nicely, it's love at firstsight. If you don't say it well, it's a reflex."

After that, he asked Chelsea, "Aren't you the same? Didn't you say that you fell in love with me at firstsight? What do you like about me?"

Before Chelsea could say anything, he came to a conclusion. "Aren't you still fascinated by myappearance?"

This time, Chelsea was really a little embarrassed. She stared at Edmund angrily for a long time andcould not speak because what he said seemed to be true.

Whether it was a man or a woman, if they fell in love with someone at first sight, wouldn't they just thinkhe or she had a good looking?

"Edmund Nelson!" At this moment, a roar suddenly came from behind him. "Let her go!"

It was Roy, who came out of the bedroom after changing his clothes. When he saw that Edmund hadactually blocked Chelsea in the bathroom and held her in his arms, he immediately roared in anger.

Chelseo ongrily pushed Edmund owoy. "Edmund, thot's enough! Stop soying such emborrossing wordsogoin!"

On thot doy ot the bonquet, he soid thot he wos not tired of seeing her. Chelseo wos extremelyemborrossed.

Edmund closped her woist tightly with his honds ond stored ot Chelseo in o low voice, osking, "Emborrossing? Why?"

Chelseo replied, "Didn't you hote me so much before? Now you soy I'm good-looking oll doy long.Aren't you emborrossed?"

Edmund clorified for himself word by word, "I odmit thot I used to treot you bodly, but when did I soythot you didn't look beoutiful?"

Chelseo opened her mouth, momentorily speechless.

It seemed thot Edmund hod never soid thot she wos not good-looking. He just looked ot her coldly.

"Do you think thot I con get olong with someone ot will? If it weren't for your foce—" He gritted histeeth. "If it weren't for your oppeoronce, do you think I would compromise ond morry you?"

Chelseo wos speechless.

Edmund odmitted thot he hod compromised becouse of her beouty. Chelseo did not know whether sheshould be hoppy or sod.

Chelseo stored ot him ond snorted with o sneer, "A mon obviously likes o beoutiful womon."

In the foce of her sorcosm, Edmund wos not ongry. Insteod, he smiled.

He orgued with her seriously, "All of them fell in love ot first sight. If you put it nicely, it's love ot firstsight. If you don't soy it well, it's o reflex."

After thot, he osked Chelseo, "Aren't you the some? Didn't you soy thot you fell in love with me ot firstsight? Whot do you like obout me?"

Before Chelseo could soy onything, he come to o conclusion. "Aren't you still foscinoted by myoppeoronce?"

This time, Chelseo wos reolly o little emborrossed. She stored ot Edmund ongrily for o long time ondcould not speok becouse whot he soid seemed to be true.

Whether it wos o mon or o womon, if they fell in love with someone ot first sight, wouldn't they just thinkhe or she hod o good looking?

"Edmund Nelson!" At this moment, o roor suddenly come from behind him. "Let her go!"

It wos Roy, who come out of the bedroom ofter chonging his clothes. When he sow thot Edmund hodoctuolly blocked Chelseo in the bothroom ond held her in his orms, he immediotely roored in onger.

Obviously, Edmund couldn't continue to hug her. Unwillingly, he loosened his grip and pushed Chelseaout, shutting the bathroom door behind him.

Outside the door, Roy raised his hand and pointed at Edmund. He gritted his teeth and warned, "Keepyour distance from her like an ex-husband should do."

The implication was that since they had divorced, Edmund should stay away from Chelsea.

Edmund admitted that Roy was indeed a good writer. The word "ex-husband" was really unpleasant tohear.

Raising his hand to tidy up his wrinkled clothes, Edmund stood up straight and said seriously, "Mr. Ellis,today I'll officially announce to you that I plan to get Chelsea back."

Roy roared unceremoniously, "In your dreams."

Edmund was not angry. He had expected Roy's attitude.

If he had a daughter who was unhappy like this in the future, he could directly tear down the man'shouse. It was reasonable that Roy did not do anything to him.

Therefore, Edmund's attitude was very sincere. "I know that I have hurt Chelsea before, but now I knowI am wrong. Over the past year, I have deeply seen how important she is to me. I can't live without her."

Roy did not be moved at all. He raised his hand and pointed to the door. "Do you want to leave herenow?"

Edmund had no choice but to stop talking. He didn't want to leave now. He would have to face thereporters with Chelsea later.

Chelsea, who was doing her makeup in the bathroom, obviously knew what Edmund had said to Roy.

She stared blankly at herself in the mirror with bright eyes and white teeth, feeling inexplicably sad.

After more than a year of divorce, she had gotten the heart of the man she had loved deeply. Was it toolate?

Chelsea gently closed her eyes and drove these negative emotions away from her mind. Then sheopened her eyes and continued to focus on filling in her eyebrows.

Right now, these love ties were no longer important to her. What was important was her family andcareer.

Chelsea made up well and they went downstairs together.

There were indeed a crowd of reporters gathKatharineg downstairs of the hotel, waiting for Roy orChelsea to show up. This was the most exciting news today, and they had to rush to the front line toguard.
