Chapter 321
Chapter 321
Chelsea came back so late because Winston proposed to watch a movie after dinner. Chelsea had always wanted to watch this movie, but she didn't have time to. Just as Winston invited her, she agreed.
The main reason for this was an indie movie. Chelsea felt that, she might not be able to find a suitable person to watch it except Winston. Although Zuri was an actress, she did not like watching such movies at all. Sometimes, Chelsea watched it with her, and she had simply fall asleep.
It was rare to see someone like him who could chat with her in such a short time. Chelsea happily went.
When she came with Winston just now, they walked very fast for fear that it was going to rain. The road was a bit slippery. Chelsea staggered a few steps and Winston helped support her.
Chelsea wanted to ask Winston let go of her, but Winston added, "The road ahead is still slippery. It's going to rain soon. Let's hurry back."
As he spoke, he continued to pull her forward. His hand had been holding onto her wrist, but as they walked, he had grabbed her hand. At first, Chelsea hadn't noticed it, but now that she had been stared at by Edmund's red eyes, she finally realized what was going on.
Edmund didn't answer the question why he was here. His brain had been messed by jealousy. It wasn't until Chelsea withdrew her hand that he regained some of his senses.
Winston spoke first and greeted Edmund politely, "Mr. Nelson."
Chelsea asked in surprise, "Do you know each other?"
Winston smiled and said, "We had known each other a few years ago."
Only then did Edmund look at Winston, "Mr. Hopkins, long time no see."
"Mr. Nelson, this is...?" Winston asked Edmund with a puzzled face.
"Mr. Hopkins, since you're pursuing Chelsea, how come you don't know who I am and why I'm here?"
Chelsea stared at him in astonishment. What was wrong with him?
Winston spoke to him politely, but Edmund meant to quarrel.
Winston didn't care about Edmund's cold face. He just said lightly, "I really don't know Mr. Nelson's purpose. After all, no one mentioned you to me."
Winston's words were harsh, hinting that Edmund was not important at all to Chelsea and the Ellis family, so no one mentioned him at all.
After Winston finished speaking, he added, "Besides, when I met Mr. Nelson a few years ago, the woman around Mr. Nelson seemed to be a famous actress. Could it be that Mr. Nelson broke up with that actress now? Do you have something with Chelsea?"
Winston's words almost angered Edmund. Winston obviously knew his identity, so he deliberately mentioned his relationship with Diane, emphasizing the ambiguous relationship between him and
Diane at that time.
At that time, he was still in a marriage with Chelsea. This should be what Chelsea was most unwilling to mention.
As expected, Chelsea lowered her eyes and pursed her lips slightly.
Edmund narrowed his eyes and looked at Winston. This man was definitely an expert at playing tricks. In just a few words, he made Chelsea hate him again.
There was another thunder above his head, and the colder wind swept over the fallen leaves on the ground. Chelsea wrapped her clothes tightly and looked at Winston, saying, "The weather is pretty bad. Go back first. Thank you for treating me to dinner tonight, and thank you for inviting me to the movie."
Edmund gritted his teeth. Did they go to watch a movie?
A man and a woman watching a movie at night was not an ordinary ambiguous way, but also the most practical way to cultivate the relationship.
After Chelsea finished speaking to Winston, she turned to look at Edmund. Her tone was a little distant than when she was talking to Winston. "Mr. Nelson, you should go back as well."
After finishing her words, Chelsea planned to open the door and go home first, but in the end, Edmund stopped her. The man's gaze was deep as he stared at her. "I have something to discuss with you."
"It's too late today and the weather is not good. Let's talk about it tomorrow." For the sake of his current situation, Chelsea had said this.
When she came back, Edmund was waiting outside the door. Obviously, Roy didn't want him to come in.
Chelsea could also sense that Roy didn't like Edmund, and he was looking for her now. Was he going to stand outside the door and talk in the storm?
However, Edmund insisted, "I'll just say a few words."
Before Chelsea could say anything, the bean-sized raindrops suddenly fell. She exclaimed and hid in the eaves of the corridor. Then she said to the two, "It's raining. You should leave now."
Winston glanced at Edmund, who was next to her, and didn't stay any longer. He slowly said to Chelsea, "See you tomorrow."
Then he turned and left.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Winston had left, but Edmund was still standing there motionless. The rain instantly drenched him.
Chelsea felt that Edmund was a lunatic. She stared angrily at him and said, "If you have something to say, then say it."
Since he didn't want to leave, he could go after finishing his words.
Chelsea's condition was better under the eaves of the corridor. The rain would not directly pour on her, but because the wind was too strong, she was still a little wet.
Edmund took a step forward, standing in the middle of the storm. The rain which had landed on Chelsea's body had all landed on him. In addition, the rain which had poured down from his head had caused him to be in an extremely sorry state.
He stood in the wind and rain and looked at Chelsea, saying word by word firmly, "I love you."
Chelsea didn't know what was wrong. Perhaps his current situation was too miserable. When he said these three words, her chest trembled violently.
She didn't know whether she should be angry or pitiful. She wrapped her clothes tightly and said hurriedly, "I know. Can you leave now?"
Edmund ignored her words and stepped forward to approach her. He fixed his eyes on her and asked in a deep voice, "Do you still love me?"
Chelsea didn't say a word. She couldn't say anything either.
There was indeed no clear answer to whether she loved or not.
Since the divorce, she had been trying hard to look forward and had never thought about this, because in her opinion, she and Edmund had divorced, and they wouldn't together anymore.
She had never thought that one day, Edmund would turn back to tell her that he loved her... Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Edmund knew that she would be silent, so he announced, "If you don't give me an answer today, I won't leave."
This forced Chelsea to move her body. She took a step back and calmly said, "I don't love you anymore."
Chelsea hoped that he could stop and leave as soon as he got such an answer. The rain was so heavy that if he continued to stand in the rain, he would catch a cold.
