Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 164

Chelsea was to attend the party, and so was Diane.

However, Diane showed up there with Sonya. Edmund vehemently refused to be her date for the party, so she had to go with his sister to save face.

Attending this party with Sonya would signal to the public that she had a good relationship with her future sister-in-law. Maybe the day she married into the Nelson family would come soon.

Diane wore a long white strapless dress that set off her attractive cleavage. She accessorized with shiny silver jewelry. Her face was fully made up.

It was common for actresses and other female celebrities to dress in this manner. They always put in their best for such occasions. Everything Diane had on exuded her class and wealth.

On the other hand, Sonya had on a light pink dress that complemented her beauty.

The moment they stepped their feet into the banquet hall, several women flocked around them.

One of them shyly smiled at Diane and uttered, "Good to see you, Diane. Why didn't you come with Mr. Nelson today?"


"That's because he's very busy. My brother is a workaholic. Thank goodness Diane is an understanding woman," Sonya replied in Diane's stead.

Diane pursed her lips and smiled gracefully. "Well, it's my duty to be very understanding of my man. I think men should focus on their career."

Sonya took the initiative to speak for Diane today because Alena had told her to. She was here to help her maintain a good image.

In return, Diane promised Sonya that she would always have her best interest at heart and that she would help her get into Edmund's good books once she married him.

It was a good deal for Sonya. Although she didn't lack money, her brother was fond of cutting down her monthly allowance whenever she did anything that he frowned upon. She didn't want that to happen again.

Since she was Diane's ally, she was confident that she would get good benefits once Diane got married to Edmund.

The women had no reason to disbelieve them, so they reasoned that all was still well with the relationship between Edmund and Diane.

Another woman glanced at Diane's flat belly, leaned over and whispered curiously, "You suddenly quit acting without giving us a reason. Are you pregnant?"

This question made Diane's heart skip a beat. The next second, intense guilt tugged at her heartstrings.

A fake pregnancy was what she used to sow discord between Chelsea and Edmund in the past. Edmund didn't know what she did. She was hell-bent on taking her wrongdoing to the grave. If he found out what she did, she had no idea what excuse to give or how to face him.

To make matters worse, Edmund had never had sex with her. How could she have fallen pregnant?

Diane responded with a faint smile, "No, I'm not pregnant. Stop talking nonsense."

The other women laughed heartily. Afterward, they asked her to send them an invitation once she set the date for the wedding.
