Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 184

Edmund was so depressed that he abandoned his food on the dining table. He went upstairs, pulling off the tie on his neck. He fell to the bed as soon as he entered his room.

His mind was in a muddle as he lay motionlessly on the bed. When his eyes fell on the chandelier hanging down from the ceiling, his mind traveled to the past.

Chelsea had bought this chandelier. Edmund vividly remembered that they had just had hot sex when she whispered to him about changing the light in the bedroom. The former one used to be a heavy metal-styled light. According to her, it looked too depressing.

He agreed readily. Such things didn't matter to him. Besides, he always granted her requests if she made them after he fucked her.

Edmund didn't want to think about the past anymore. He looked away only for his eyes to fall on the curtains on the French window. Chelsea bought them too.

In fact, almost everything in this villa was Chelsea's idea. Before he married her, the villa was furnished to his taste. But she changed most of them little by little.

Edmund never took notice of the changes while they were married. It wasn't until after the divorce that he realized Chelsea had made the house look more like a home.

"My goodness!" Edmund raked his fingers through his hair at this moment. He wanted to dispel the thoughts. Why was he inexplicably sad after their marriage ended over a year ago?

It was true that Chelsea and Luka were in a relationship. However, Zuri hadn't told Edmund the entire truth. She deliberately kept an important detail away from him.

Although Chelsea was with Luka now, they were only pretending to be a couple.

Luka's mother was gravely ill. Her greatest wish was to see her son get married and settle down. Only then could she be at peace.

Thus, Luka called Chelsea and ask her for a huge favor. He wanted her to pretend to be his girlfriend so his mother could rest in peace.

Chelsea readily agreed.

Luka had been nothing but kind to her right from the first day they met. He gave her another shot at life by employing her. More so, he always came to her aid whenever she was in trouble.

Thus, Chelsea went to his hometown to help him.

When Edmund called her earlier, she had just gotten picked up by Luka at the bus stop of his hometown.

With his eyes fixed on the road, Luka asked inquisitively, "Was that Edmund?"

Chelsea nodded. "Yes."

"Does he know about this?" he inquired gently.

"No, he doesn't. I didn't tell him. There's no need for him to know," Chelsea responded, shaking her head.

Luka sighed and continued, "I heard he brought you dinner and showed you utmost care in the last few days. Is that true?"

"Yeah, that's true. I guess he's doing it because he was the one who caused my injury." Chelsea had pondered about why Edmund suddenly became doting. She could only come to one conclusion: he did it because he was sorry.

After all, she wouldn't have sprained her ankle if he hadn't pulled her forcefully that night.

Chelsea reasoned that he would most likely not show up again now that her ankle was healed.
