Chapter 42 There Was Nothing Wrong With Not Loving Someone

"It's late.You should go back and have a rest,"

Edmund replied coldly after hearing Diane's apology.Judging from the way he spoke, it wasn't clearwhether or not he had forgiven her.

After alighting the vehicle, the expression on her face changed.

Unbeknown to Edmund, she gritted her teeth in anger.

Chelsea took a taxi and headed to Zuri's residence.She couldn't tell if Orlando was still in herapartment or not.So in order to be on the safe side, she didn't return home.

Zuri heard a knock on the door.She was wearing a facial mask when she went to see who it was.Shesoon found out that it was Chelsea.So she let her in and opened a bottle of red wine.

They didn't start drinking though until Chelsea had taken a shower and put on the clean pajamas Zurigave her.

Both of them sat on the carpet and began to talk.

When Zuri heard everything that happened at the company, she pulled off the mask on her face andclapped her hands.

"Holy moly! That's awesome.It's high time you taught that wretch an unforgettable lesson."

She knew that Chelsea had been bullied on different occasions.So it pleased her a great deal that thistime the tables are turned and it was Diane who got pissed off.

"I couldn't agree more." Chelsea nodded her head slightly.

Then she took a sip of wine.

Apparently, Diane was as desperate and heartbroken as Chelsea was when she found out thatEdmund was seeing another woman.

"You know what? I think you should take advantage of the situation."

Excitement was written all over Zuri's face while she spoke.

"Go close to Edmund on purpose so as to further annoy her.Then after he falls in love with you, kickhim to the curb.That way, you can exact revenge on him for how badly he treated you in the past."

After thinking for a while, Chelsea shook the wine glass in her hand and murmured, "That's notnecessary.They didn't do anything dreadful to me."

From the expression on Zuri’s face, it was obvious that she wasn't in agreement.So Chelsea added,"The thing is, Edmund didn't love me.He even said it to my hearing.I was just stubbornly holding on forso many years.So you see, it's my fault.I was too naive and silly.I thought I could exchange my heart forhis love."

Nobody deserved to go through that, Zuri thought to herself after hearing Chelsea's words.Her eyesbecame teary.She knew all the pain and gloom the woman sitting close to her had suffered.With aconcerned look on her face, she moved towards Chelsea and hugged her.

"Everything about my relationship with Edmund ended with our divorce.There's no point crying overspilt milk, is there? It’s all over," Chelsea said in a calm tone.

Instead of becoming sad, she clinked glasses with Zuri and drank up.

With the passage of time, she figured a lot of things out.

Edmund really didn't offend her.

There was nothing wrong in not loving someone.

What mattered to her was that he wouldn't mess with her again.

They kept on drinking for a while.

Then Zuri asked out of the blue, "Why did Edmund suddenly ask you to talk about the script?"

"I have no idea about that."

Chelsea shook her head.

"Did he see the news about Orlando?"

Zuri paused briefly.

Then she continued, "I think Edmund was afraid that the young man would stay in the same room withyou an entire night.So he found an excuse to get you out of your apartment."

"How is that possible?"иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмChelsea was surprised to hear that.

"Why would he do that?"

"Are you seriously asking me that?" Zuri stared at her.

"Edmund couldn't care less about me.He is eager for me to marry someone else as soon aspossible.That way, he won't have to worry about me pestering him ever again," Chelsea said.

"The reason why he wanted me to come to the company to talk about the script was that he wanted totorture me on purpose."

Edmund used to treat her so badly that she concluded that he hated her.

That notion had not changed, not even after their divorce.She thought that he just didn't want her to livepeacefully.

"What are you going to do in the future?" Zuri asked after thinking for some time.

She was concerned about Chelsea.

"The project of the play has just started."

"Maybe I shouldn't have taken part in this play in the first place.That way, I wouldn't have had anythingto do with him," Chelsea replied helplessly.
