Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 183

Chelsea thought that Edmund sending her dinner was just a one-time thing. But he showed up at her door the next evening.

When she opened the door and saw him holding takeout bags, she didn't want to let him in. "Mr. Nelson, I appreciate your kindness. But you don't have to do this anymore. My foot has recovered."

"No, it hasn't, Chelsea. You got hurt because of me. I won't rest assured until you completely recover," Edmund said calmly, walking past her into the apartment.

Chelsea had no choice but to eat the food he brought with him. Afterward, she made him a cup of coffee like the night before. The night went on peacefully and Edmund left for his house.

The third evening, Chelsea wasn't at home when Edmund arrived.

He rang the doorbell for a long time before he finally decided to call her. Chelsea said from the other end of the line, "Good evening, Mr. Nelson. I'm sorry. I am currently not at home."

Edmund frowned and asked immediately, "Why did you go out? Has your foot fully healed? The doctor said you should stay put!"

Chelsea replied seriously, "I've been applying the ointment judiciously for the last three days. The swelling is gone and the pain has subsided, so I can move freely."

Edmund let out an exasperated sigh. He then inquired, "Where are you?"

"Out of town," Chelsea replied briefly.

It was obvious she didn't want to tell him her exact location. Edmund gritted his teeth and said reluctantly, "Okay, take care."

"You too, Mr. Nelson."

The call ended on an awkward note. Edmund's heart sank for some weird reason. Staring at the takeout bags he brought, he lost his appetite.

He strangely had a good appetite for the last two nights when he had dinner with Chelsea.

His appetite had been very bad after the big health scare he had the last time. None of the foods he normally ate appealed to his taste buds. But with Chelsea, he ate just about anything.

Edmund took the food back to his residence. As he nibbled on it, he called Fay and asked her if she knew Chelsea's whereabouts.

Fay answered in the negative. She didn't even know that Chelsea went out of town.

Lost in thought, Edmund tapped his phone screen after hanging up. He then called Zuri.

Zuri immediately became mischievous when she heard his question. "Of course, I know where she is!"

"Where is she? Tell me!" Edmund hurriedly asked.

"She's at Luka's hometown," Zuri replied truthfully, placing emphasis on the last two words.

A pang of pain plagued Edmund's heart when he heard this. "What? Why did she go there?"

"Well, you already know the answer, so I won't bother answering you. You just have to stop living in denial," Zuri intoned with a provocative voice.

Edmund almost blew a short fuse when he heard those words.

He did have an answer in mind, but it was unpleasant. He didn't want to accept it.
