Chapter Capítulo 49
Chapter: 49
A deep frown clouded Chelsea's face instantly. She gritted her teeth and rolled
her eyes. She knew that he meant to say something else
Quarrelling with him was not in her agenda at all. So, she ignored his tease and
greeted politely, “Good day, Mr. Nelson.”
Taking the hint, Edmund withdrew his gaze from her face and motioned at the
seat in front of him. “Have a seat.”
Chelsea sat down. Wasting no time, she took out her laptop and turned it on.
Edmund stood up and fetched two cups of coffee. He stretched out one to her.
Chelsea thanked him and was about to take it. But his hand suddenly tilted. The
coffee spilled on her chest.
“Oh my!” Chelsea exclaimed and sprang to her feet. She Looked down at her
stained clothes in horror while cursing in her mind. Since she returned, she had
been unfortunate to have two cups of coffee spilled on her. And they were both
done by siblings. What bad Luck!
“Oops! I'm so sorry.” Edmund hadn't intended for that to happen. He had been
gazing at Chelsea's face, so he was absentminded as he handed her the cup of
coffee. In a haste, he put down the cup in his hand and pulled out some pieces of
tissue to wipe the mess on her clothes.
Chelsea's face instantly flushed as his hand came closer.
“Why are you blushing? It's no big deal. I have seen your nakedness before, so
there's no point being shy,” Edmund uttered when he saw her flushed face.
Chelsea was speechless. She could only look up at him with embarrassment .
Just when Edmund handed her the pieces of tissue and was about to withdraw
his hand, the door of his office flung open. Diane stormed in like a ferocious
Lioness.
She had secretly followed Edmund after he left. It wasn't until when she saw him
entering the company that she was relieved. She finally believed that he indeed
had some work to do.
However, her relief was short-lived. She was about to go back home when she
saw Chelsea arrive in a taxi. Her suspicion got the best of her again. She quickly
parked the car and went upstairs.
“What are you doing?” Diane was delusional. Just because Edmund's hand was
close to Chelsea’s chest, she concluded that he was about to take off her suit
jacket.
Rage burned red rashes on her cheeks and forehead. Her thin eyebrows were
also knitted. Setting aside the gentle mask she always put on in Edmund's
presence, she pointed at Chelsea and spat furiously, “You shameless bitch, what
brings you here? You snatched Edmund from me by climbing into his bed four
years ago. Now, you want to seduce him in his office. Who the hell do you think
you are? Gosh, you are a pathetic excuse for a woman!”
Diane had the urge to pounce on Chelsea for seducing her man yet again. For
starters, she decided to slap her. She rushed over in high heels with her hand
raised.
“Diane!”
Edmund was quick enough to catch Diane's hand before the slap Landed on
Chelsea's cheek.
“What's wrong with you? Why are you overreacting?” Edmund bellowed angrily.
His grip tightened over Diane’s wrist and it turned red.
