She reminded herself that her draft wouldn’t pass probably. But it was still worth a shot.
Zuri had no work recently so she paid Chelsea a visit often. She had her meals at Chelsea’s apartment ever since she was discharged from the hospital.
Chelsea could tell her friend was doing this out of genuine concern. The two of them didn’t disturb each other and stayed out of each other’s way. When Chelsea was working, Zuri would sit on the sofa and watch a play by herself. Other times she would study the script of her new play.
That morning, as soon as Zuri entered Chelsea’s apartment, she exclaimed, “Shit, | heard that Edmund's mother attempted suicide.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChelsea, who had been busy making coffee, was stunned. “What?” she asked, unable to believe her ears.
Alena had committed suicide?
After kicking off her shoes, Zuri cin and handed the news screenshot to Chelsea. “Yes and it is all over the Internet.” Zuri surfed the Inteall day long. Hence she was up to date with everything.
“Here is a picture of Edmund with disheveled hair, taken in the middle of the night from the hospital. Someone confessed to hearing Edmund and his mother quarrel over his sister’s matter. It was deleted immediately. Fortunately, | took a screenshot in time.”
Zuri continued to say, “I guess Alena must be dissatisfied with Edmund's indifference to Sonya. That's probably what led to this quarrel.”
Zuri realized Chelsea hadn't said a word and she had done all the talking. Turning to Chelsea, she said, “Don’t tellyou feel sorry for Edmund!”
Without waiting for Chelsea’s response, Zuri said with a note of warning in her voice, “I'm telling you, don’t be softhearted and withdraw the lawsuit. You need to sue Sonya for what she did. Alena is doing all this in the hope that you would give up. Sonya, that bitch deserves to be punished!”
Chelsea regained her senses. Shaking her head, she said, “Of course | won't withdraw the Lawsuit. I’m surprised Edmund isn’t trying to please his mother and sister this time. | was expecting him to threateninto withdrawing the lawsuit.”
Zuri snorted and said, “How dare he! If he continues to protect his family, | won’t Let him go!” With a smile, Chelsea handed a cup of coffee to Zuri and asked, “Is Alena fine?”
Taking a sip of the freshly brewed coffee, Zuri sighed with relish and said, “Don’t worry. How could someone Like Alena really hurt herself? | guess her suicide is just a show. People like her can only torture others brutally. When it comes to themselves, they are very careful. She won't leave the world so soon.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZuri spoke ill of Alena with a fierceness. Chelsea said nothing but continued to sip her coffee, mulling over something. Even though she didn’t admit it, Alena’s suicide attempt had made her waver in her pursuit to get justice.
She had a kind heart and wouldn’t want anyone to be harmed because of her. She almost told herself she should forgive Sonya. And she wouldn't be regarded as the one creating a rift between Edmund and his family. After all, at the end of the day, she was neither harmed nor raped. Wasn't it fine to let it go?
Once these softer emotions faded, she shook her head and told herself that it wouldn’t be fair. Sonya could do something like this again in the future. It would be wrong to let her walk freely.
If Chelsea withdrew the lawsuit, Sonya could mistake it for her weakness and perhaps think she was easy to bully. Then she might attempt something more extrin the future.
Taking a sip of coffee, Zuri was reminded of something. Turning to Chelsea, she said, “Did you hear that Diane terminated her contract with the Nelson Group? She has set up her own film and television company .”
“Yeah, | know,” Chelsea said. It was impossible not to be informed about it when the news was everywhere.
A few days ago, it was exposed that Diane had been hyping her relationship with Edmund. After that, she announced that she was going to terminate the contract with the Nelson Group. She also went ahead and announced the establishment of her own film and television company, called Fairyland Culture.
Coming from Diane, it wasn’t much of a surprise. Besides, she had nothing to worry about financially since she had a strong capital from Philip.
