When Hilton and his son finally left, Chelsea's world became brighter. She could finally breathe.

She quickly took out her phone, typed in, "Thank you!", and sent it to Edmund.

She waited for some time, but Edmund didn't reply her.

When she saw that he wasn't going to reply, she sighed, then called Zuri and told her about everything. It was only when she was telling Zuri about it that Chelsea realized giving a pen to Edmund for all he had done wasn't enough.

Before Hilton and his son were driven away, she had thought that giving Edmund a pen would be the perfect gift.

With a smile on her lips on the other end of the line, Zuri teased her, "Maybe you should thank him with your body then..."

Chelsea gasped and slapped her hand over her mouth. "Do you want me to try approaching him and get mocked by him again?"

Zuri smacked her lips loudly and said carelessly, "Your problem is that you think too much. You can just sleep once with him and get it over with."

At this point, Chelsea was speechless. She couldn't believe that a famous star like Zuri could say something like that so freely.

That was wrong!

While Chelsea was appalled, Zuri couldn't stop laughing. "I'm sorry. I was just kidding," she said between fits of laughter. "I'm boarding now. How about dinner at my home tonight?"

Chelsea couldn't say no to that. After a while, Zuri said, "Chelsea, I'm really sorry that I couldn't be there for you this time."

Chelsea smiled and said, "Don't worry about it. I'm fine now."

Zuri had been with her in the most difficult period of her life a year ago.

Divorcing with Edmund had taken a huge toll on her. She had lost every single hope at that point in her life. What she felt now was very different. She just felt angry.

When Fay went back home in the evening after work, she saw that Chelsea had already packed her things and was ready to leave. "I can't believe you're leaving already. I don't want you to leave just yet."

Chelsea had been with her for just a few days, yet, she had gotten so used to her that she didn't want to live without her. Chelsea was a perfect housemate.

Fay couldn't help but think of how Edmund had felt when he divorced with Chelsea. She was sure he felt horrible. After all, they had lived together for three years.

When you got used to living with someone, it was very difficult to suddenly start living alone again.

"Trust me, Fay, I don't want to leave you either." Chelsea also liked Fay very much, and she was most of all grateful that she took her in when she was homeless.

After thinking about it, Chelsea invited Fay to join her for dinner in Zuri's house. Of course, she accepted.

First, they went back to Chelsea's house to drop her things, and then headed to the airport to pick Zuri up before they all went to her house together.

They chatted while eating, when suddenly, Fay said hesitantly, "Uh, Diane's father... He... Uh, he invited Mr. Nelson to have dinner with them tonight."

Hearing this, Chelsea lowered her head and drank her soup quietly.
