Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Edmund didn't want to rise to the bait after Yusuf teased him. With a cold face, he brought the glass to his lips and took a long sip. But he spat out the wine a second later.

His eyes widened in shock. They had just fallen on Chelsea's exposed back as soon as she turned around.

Edmund had been looking at her front since he arrived. He felt that the dress was simple and glamorous.

It was so long that it touched the floor. Although it was an off-shoulder dress, he didn't have any issue with it since her breasts weren't exposed.

Never did it occur to him that Chelsea's back was exposed.

It was bare for all to see. Her smooth and delicate skin was very eye-catching.

When Edmund noticed that some men were stealing glances at his ex-wife's back, he was pissed off.

Yusuf stepped back to dodge the wine that was just spat out. He squinted at his friend and queried, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so startled and pissed?"

Yusuf followed Edmund's gaze until his eyes landed on Chelsea's bare back. He immediately understood the reason for his friend's weird reaction. "Don't react like that. She has been here for a while and everyone has seen her dress. In truth, she is rather conservative compared to how the other women here dress."

Yusuf felt that his friend was overreacting.

However, Edmund's mood was not lifted by Yusuf's words. His annoyance was heightened when Luka suddenly put his arm around Chelsea's waist and pulled her closer.

As if he was trying to add fuel to the fire, Yusuf quipped, "By the way, Chelsea's back looks so good!"

"Shut the fuck up! Swallow your dirty words, man," Edmund commanded, his eyes blazing crimson.

"How are my words dirty? Can't I compliment her?" Yusuf innocently asked, raising his free hand.

Edmund snorted. The only thing that stopped him from punching Yusuf in the face was their friendship. If it were another man that said such words, he would have beaten him to a pulp.

Edmund suddenly began to walk towards Chelsea and Luka, still holding the glass of wine. Yusuf followed him curiously.

Unbeknown to them, Chelsea had already noticed Edmund's presence a while back. She intentionally turned her back to him.

She had hoped she wouldn't meet him on such an occasion because she didn't want both them getting embarrassed.

Diane and Sonya were also here. Little did she want to have any connection with them.

Chelsea thought her plan worked until Edmund walked up to them. She bit the inside of her lower lip before she plucked up the courage to look at him with a decent smile.

Luka immediately exchanged pleasantries with them. "Hello, Mr. Nelson and Mr. Collins. Good to see you two."

"Wow! Chelsea, I could barely recognize you. You look so beautiful." Yusuf flattered her without hesitation. Flattering women was his forte.

Chelsea nodded with a smile. "Thank you."

On the other hand, Edmund sneered and uttered with dissatisfaction, "You are a scriptwriter, not an actress, Chelsea. Don't you think it's rather irresponsible of you to wear such a dress? Or did you intentionally do it for cheap attention?"
