She didn’t like Alena, but she was concerned about her health. People would blher if anything bad happened to Alena.
Sensing what was going on in Chelsea’s mind, Fay held her arm and said comfortingly, “Don’t worry, Chelsea. She will be fine. It’s not your fault. Her health deteriorated after her husband cheated and left her.”
It was common for people’s health to dwindle after getting abandoned by a loved one. Thus, Fay brought it up as a perfect excuse.
Fay paused for a while and asked, “What transpired between you and Mr. Nelson’s mother just now? Why did she faint?”
Chelsea brushed her hair back and replied helplessly, “I was busy working on the script when Alena called and scolded me. I didn’t want to hear what she had to say, so I hung up on her. Sminutes Later, she showed up at here with Sonya. We argued for a while and she tried to slap me. At that time, I began recording with my phone for proof.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChelsea handed her phone to Fay and added, “The rest is here.”
After watching the video on Chelsea’s phone, Fay couldn’t help shaking her head and sighing.
“It’s such a shthat she behaved like this. She didn’t have the usual temperament that people of her status usually have.”
Not only did Alena cuss Chelsea out on the phone, but she also cover and attempted to slap her. Why did a noble lady behave Like an uncultivated shrew?
It was obvious that Alena and Sonya did it for two reasons. First, they felt that they had the right to bully Chelsea because she was from an ordinary background. Second, they still saw her as the naive and
submissive woman who used to take their insults and maltreatment without fighting back. They felt the need to trample on her even though she wasn’t married to Edmund anymore.
Hugging herself again, Chelsea uttered, “It’s puzzling, isn’t it? I didn’t offend them in any way. Why did they chere to bully me?”
“Well, I think I know why they chere,” Fay said after pondering for a while.
“You do? Please tell me,” Chelsea requested, moving closer to her.
“Well, Mr. Nelson invited Sonya for Lunch today. He made it known to her that he would be sending her abroad soon. This didn’t go down well with her.” As Edmund’s assistant, Fay was aware of what went on in his life. She had made the reservation at the restaurant for him.
Chelsea was surprised.
“What? Edmund is sending Sonya abroad?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFay nodded and explained, “Yeah. It might interest you to know that Sonya was the one who told Garry where you lived.”
Chelsea’s eyes bulged out of the sockets when she heard this. But she soon beccalm. It occurred to her that Sonya was capable of doing such a thing. After all, she had done worse things in the past.
Seizing the opportunity to put in a good word for her boss, Fay said, “Mr. Nelson doesn’t want Sonya to continue causing trouble for you, so he’s sending her away.”
Edmund never told her such a thing. However, Fay just reasoned that he wanted to protect Chelsea since he had been by her side all the time. This was the only logical explanation she could cup with for his recent actions.
Chelsea found it hard to believe what Fay just said. In fact, she felt she had heard wrong. She uttered, “Wait a minute. Did you just say that Edmund is sending his sister away because he doesn’t want her to keep causing trouble for me?”
“Yes, you heardright,” Fay responded, nodding hard.
Chelsea let out a soft chuckle. “You are joking, right? Edmund would never do anything for my good. He hates me. Besides, he has no reason to care about my well-being.”
Why would he do such a thing now that they were divorced?
As far as Chelsea was concerned, Edmund would always put Diane and his family first over her.
