Chapter 14 Overlooked Insult

After Edmund hung up the phone, Yusuf leaned towards him and suggested lazily, "Friendly advice, you should get married to Diane since you think Chelsea will begin to pester you.Your marriage will see to it that Chelsea keeps her distance and your mother will also stop bothering you.What do you think?"
