Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Loud yells from Diane echoed in the living room for several minutes. They were accompanied by the shattering sound of antiques and glassware. When Diane finally got tired, she fell to the floor feebly and continued to wail.

She was a mess now. Any outsider who saw her in this state would find it hard to believe that she was the beautiful popular actress who was always in the news.

Flora also sat on the floor and cried. "Diane, why do you want to kill yourself because of Edmund? You are my source of joy. If you die, I'll join you immediately. I can't live without you."

Philip suffered a headache as he watched them crying hard. Rubbing his temples, he had no choice but to compromise. "Well, since you want Edmund so badly, I will find a way to make him marry you. Trust me, okay?"

Diane looked up at her father with teary eyes. Seeing that he was serious, she gradually stopped crying. Flora wiped her tears. She stood up and helped her daughter up.

Diane went back to her room in a daze. She lay on the bed and covered her head with the quilt.

The major reason why she threw a tantrum was that she knew her father was mad at Edmund now.

It was obvious that Philip didn't want her to marry Edmund anymore.

Having known that her father was a domineering man who completely hated those who went against him, she decided to make a fuss and threaten to commit suicide. It was the only way she could get him to do her bidding.

Diane was utterly obsessed with Edmund. She wasn't going to allow another woman to have him. The numerous successful men had nothing on Edmund.

His class and perfection was the only reason why she dumped her foreign boyfriend and came back home in the first place.

Diane always knew what she wanted. The only time she valued love was when she was still a young girl. After she turned twenty-five years old, she reasoned that love wasn't all there was. She began to think of marriage.

Her biggest dream was to marry a powerful and wealthy man.

Edmund fit into that category well. In fact, he was more than that. He was also handsome, well-built, and properly behaved.

Diane didn't want such a man to be snatched from her again. Most especially, not by Chelsea.

In the living room, Flora anxiously asked her husband, "What do we do now?"

Philip yanked off his tie and threw it on the sofa. "Are you really asking me that question? What else can I do? This matter wouldn't have gotten this worse if you hadn't connived with her just now."

Flora's eyes turned red. "How did I connive with her? Did you expect me not to break down after she threatened to take her own life? She's our only daughter. We can't just fold our arms and do nothing when we can actually help. Do something, Philip!"

In the face of his wife's reprimand, Philip plopped down on the sofa. He kept silent for a long time before saying, "I'll call Jaime. He has to knock some senses into his son. If he fails, he shouldn't blame me when I expose his dirty secrets to the public. I'm sure by that time, the Nelson Group would be damaged. Edmund would finally realize that I'm not a man to be trifled with. There's no way he wouldn't compromise."
