Capítulo 219
Since Chelsea insisted that she was fine, Edmund helped her get the prescribed items at the pharmacy before he wheeled her out of the hospital.
As soon as Edmund and Chelsea got to the lobby, Zuri arrived and rushed after them.
After getting out of the car, she ran to Chelsea while still in high heels and pushed Edmund away on purpose, as he was about to help Chelsea up. Seeing him next to her made Zuri furious.

“Don't worry. It’s just a little red and swollen. | was told to rest for a few days and avoid putting pressure on it so that it won’t get worse.”
Zuri sighed in relief. “Someone can’t just stop hurting others. You were fine at the dinner, but the minute you went out with him you sprained your ankle. Isn’t that just ironic?”
She just didn’t Like Edmund and Zuri wasn’t doing anything to hide that fact. Orlando or Luka was better than Edmund in her mind because they were sincere when it cto Chelsea.
They really loved Chelsea, so she knew they would take good care of her. They wouldn’t let her get hurt on their watch. But what about Edmund? He was only satisfied when Chelsea was hurt. The more she thought about it, the angrier Zuri got.
Edmund couldn’t even defend himself from the woman’s criticism. Because what Zuri said was right. He was the reason why Chelsea sprained her ankle. He was the one who always hurt her.
Chelsea pulled Zuri’s arm, silently begging her to shut up before the scene beceven more awkward. Just then, Luka cover to them after parking the car. He nodded to Edmund out of courtesy and then turned to Chelsea. “Let's go up.”

Hearing that, Edmund couldn't help but think that Luka was too pretentious. Did he think he was now awesbecause he could cook? Chelsea only sprained her ankle, but there was chivalrous Luka offering to cook for her.
Just as Chelsea was about to refuse, Zuri beat her to it and said, “That's great. Mr. Pierce, although | can help take care of Chelsea, my skills in the kitchen are non-existent.”
She then invited Luka to go with them upstairs, “Let’s go. | want to taste the food you cook.” Since Zuri had gone ahead and invited him, there was no way Chelsea could refuse.
So, she went to Edmund. “Mr. Nelson, thank you so much for takingto the hospital. It's getting late. You should go back and get srest.”
Then the three of them went to Chelsea’s apartment, leaving Edmund alone in front of the building, with anger swirling in his chest.
