Capítulo 115
Part of the reason he was doing this was indeed to teach Edmund a lesson, but mostly, he wanted a good ending for Chelsea. He loved her like family, and he wanted her to be happy.
Of course, it would be best if Chelsea could get back together with Edmund. “Great. I'm glad we could clarify that. Let’s eat. The food’s getting cold.” Edmund flashed Ethan a meaningful Look. After saying that, he picked up his cutlery and enjoyed the delicious food on the table.
Ethan wasn’t satisfied with how his conversation with Edmund concluded. No matter how delicious the steak was, he wasn’t in the mood to savor it.
The scrumptious food was originally for Ethan, but Edmund ate it in the end.

While Edmund was having dinner with Ethan, he received a call from Alena.
The moment he answered the phone, he heard a woman sobbing in the background. He could tell that it was Diane.
Alena said to him earnestly, “Edmund, | heard what happened between you and Diane. Diane already admitted that she was wrong, and Chelsea didn’t get hurt. Why couldn't you still forgive her?”
Alena’s words irritated Edmund. If she weren't his mother, he would have yelled at her in response.
But he answered her in an annoyed tone, “What if no one had stood up for Chelsea and beaten that assistant director for her? What if she’d been left with no choice but to obey that nasty pervert? Mom, there are lines that we simply don’t cross.”
Alena didn’t expect that Edmund would be so conscientious, so his words choked her.
She then hurriedly replied, “Well, it's indeed Diane’s fault. She has realized that now. She feels guilty and awful. She’s crying so hard right now that she’s having trouble breathing. And Diane is a girl, dear. How could you say such harsh words to her?”
Edmund scoffed. What harsh words had he said to her? He just asked Diane to stop hyping their relationship. She was really good at exaggerating facts.
Diane wept even louder in the background, and her cries sounded Like nails against a chalkboard to Edmund. Edmund frowned and held the phone away from his ear.

Alena sighed and said, “I'll make the decision today. It’s all over now. You can have dinner with Diane another day so that you two can make up. You have been in love for so many years. You have divorced Chelsea. She is an outsider after all.”
Alena said a lot, but Edmund didn’t reply to her. He would never forgive Diane.
“Mom, I’m still having dinner with Grandpa. I'll talk to you later. Bye,” Edmund muttered impatiently.
Hearing this, Alena said immediately, “Okay. I'll hang up then.”
Alena and Ethan didn’t get along well with each other because they had different opinions on Chelsea.
Alena didn’t Like Chelsea and even tried paying her and her family a sum of money in exchange for her staying clear of Edmund. On the other hand, Ethan thought that Chelsea was a good girl and that she was a perfect wife for Edmund.
After Chelsea and Edmund got married, Ethan always stood by Chelsea’s side, which pissed off Alena.
