Capítulo 213
“Thank goodness that bitch’s doom is finally here. This will be a lesson to others like her. People should refrain from living a double life. After all, they would get embarrassed once their secret is revealed,” Zuri uttered, relishing her enemy’s downfall.
Both friends were still talking when Orlando, who was dressed in a white suit, cover. Zuri quickly cup with an excuse and left them.
Chelsea shook her head speechlessly. She knew that her friend was making a concerted effort to make her socialize with men recently.
“Long tno see, Chelsea. How have you been?” Orlando greeted her with a complicated look on his face. Chelsea smiled and responded, “Hey, I’m good. How are you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Not bad,” Orlando replied, staring at her. He cleared his throat awkwardly and continued, “Zuri tolda while ago that Mr. Nelson is your ex-husband...”
Orlando had only found out during the online backlash a few days ago that Chelsea was a divorcee. He was even more shocked to learn that Edmund was actually her ex-husband.
It was then he understood the strange thing that happened when he and Chelsea had a dinner after she returned to the country. Awaiter had brought a plate of expensive steak stating that it was from a certain
Mr. Nelson.
Orlando also understood why Edmund suddenly appeared to help at the police station the last time.
“Yes, he is my ex-husband,” Chelsea replied with a faint smile.
She sighed sadly and added, “Well, you shouldn’t waste your tonanymore.”
“Don’t say that, Chelsea. | don’t mind that you once married. Your past doesn’t define you,” Orlando said, staring at her seriously. Chelsea was speechless and lost in thought.
Young men nowadays were really strange. Why was Orlando so interested in a divorced woman when he could have any young woman who had never been married?
Orlando asked curiously, “Il don’t mean to pry or offend you, but Mr Nelson is a handsand rich man. Why did you divorce him?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Wealth and looks mean nothing when there’s no love. Mr. Nelson never loved me,” Chelsea replied indifferently. She was no longer ashamed to speak her truth. Saying that Edmund never loved her didn’t unnerve her
Atrace of surprise flashed through Orlando’s eyes. The next second, he sneered irritably.
“Gosh! It’s such a shthat Mr. Nelson is Like other silly men.”
Abig question mark appeared on Chelsea’s face. Orlando tut-tutted and added contemptuously, “He had no respect for the sanctity of marriage. Instead of doting on his wife, he frolicked with another woman, thinking that his wife wasn’t good enough. What a blind man!”
It was no news Edmund and Diane had been dating while he was still married. Now that Orlando knew Edmund was once married to Chelsea, he couldn't understand why he cheated on her with Diane.
It was a downgrade in his opinion. He felt that Chelsea was better than Diane in all ramifications. Why did Edmund settle for less?
Chelsea held her right cheek and chuckled.
