Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 209

Thirty minutes into the first therapy session with Zora, Chelsea felt very relieved.

Zuri soon arrived at the hospital, so Luka went home to have a good rest.

She looked after her friend. Her face was filled with pity and concern.

Rubbing Chelsea's pale cheek, she asked worriedly, "Bestie, when are we going to be strong enough so people won't bully us again?"

Zuri had also been a victim of bullying right from her childhood. This affected her self-esteem a lot. When she entered the entertainment industry, she was forced to grow some balls because people were trampling on her. She was now a lot fiercer than before.

It was unlike Zuri to be so sentimental. But she couldn't help it after her best friend was kidnapped. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Chelsea held her hand and comforted her. "The way I see it, becoming powerful won't stop the bullying. Some people will always be mean. It's left for us to either put up with it or fight back."

Zuri suddenly grunted and uttered, "Sonya crossed the line this time around. If she wasn't behind bars now, I would have gone to beat her up!"

"If you do that, you will have to take her place in prison," Chelsea remarked playfully.

"I don't care. As long as I get to teach that bitch a lesson," Zuri whispered with a smile.

Three days passed and Chelsea was still in the hospital. During this time, Zora came to her ward for therapy sessions. The nightmares and bad thoughts reduced drastically. Chelsea's mental health got a lot better.

Zuri stayed by her side and took good care of her. It was more comfortable than when Luka was here since Zuri was also a female.

Nonetheless, Luka brought them meals three times a day.

After he left one day, Zuri devoured the food and commented between mouthfuls, "You two can be a real couple. Luka is a good man. He has a heart of gold. That's the kind of man every woman wants. If he was into me, I would have married him without hesitation."

Chelsea chuckled and said, "You seem to be forgetting about Colin, the love of your life. He was good to you. Not only did he cook for you, but he also helped you with your schoolwork and cared for your hair. Why didn't you marry him then?"

"Well, I wanted to. But his mother didn't like me," Zuri replied, the corners of her mouth twitching.

Her heart ached as she remembered her one true love. Colin's mother had thrown a million-dollar check in her face and asked her to break up with him immediately.

What Zuri thought only happened in TV dramas and novels happened to her.

Colin came from an educated and well-to-do family. Zuri feared that he would look down on her later in life even if she stuck by him. As a beautiful study slacker, Zuri didn't think she was enough for an all-

rounder like him.

At that time, she took the money and donated it to charity. She broke up with Colin.

Her decision wasn't entirely because of what his mother did. She just didn't want to stand in the way of Colin's future. She knew that if she didn't break up with him, he wouldn't make up his mind to study abroad.

"That reminds me. Have you made enough money to get back at Colin's mother?" Chelsea suddenly asked.

Zuri poked the steak on her plate and snorted. "What do you think?"

The day Colin's mother threw a check at her was the most humiliating day of Zuri's life. She was so angry and sad that she vowed to make something of her life. She swore to throw a check of ten million dollars in that wicked woman's face someday. And perhaps get back with Colin.

At that time, Chelsea had mixed feelings about her friend's vow.

"Money isn't the problem now. I'm just waiting for Colin to come back. Then I will show that vile woman never to write people off!" Zuri said aggressively, stabbing the steak again.
