Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 271

After the call, Chelsea went to prepare breakfast and called Zuri to get up for dinner.

While they were leisurely eating breakfast, someone rang the doorGordon of Chelsea.

Chelsea opened the door in confusion. The person standing outside was the manager of a household brand, followed by several workers carrying boxes.

The salesgirl smiled and said to Chelsea, "Mr. Nelson ordered a few sets of tableware and pots here and asked us to send them here."

What was Edmund doing?

Was it because he had just seen Luka give her a green plant, and then he also wanted to give her something?

Before Chelsea could react, the worker ordered the workers to carry the two boxes into Chelsea's living room.

Zuri walked over curiously. When she bent down and opened the box, there were two sets of exquisite bowls and plates, as well as a few pots. They were all of the fashionable style.

Zuri couldn't help but sigh, "I have to admit that Edmund was quite considerate this time. He knows that you like these things, so he has made them for you.

Chelsea did like these utensils, especially those which were the most fashionable of the trend. She was very satisfied them.

The manager then handed another exquisitely packed box to Chelsea and said, "Mr. Nelson specially asked us to bring this cup here."

When Chelsea opened it, she was completely stunned. This was because this was the one which had been shattered by Edmund last time. At that time, her heart ached so much.

Zuri exclaimed, "Oh my god, Edmund actually found someone to duplicate exactly the same one."

In addition to shock, Chelsea asked Zuri, "How did you know?"

Thus, Zuri told Chelsea that Edmund had asked her for the photo of the cup. However, at that time, Zuri thought that it was a unique piece of item that Chelsea had brought from abroad, so there was no way they could find another one. And it would be quite difficult to make an identical one.

Zuri didn't expect Edmund to actually recreate an identical one. She truly admired him.

For a moment, Chelsea was at a loss for words. She didn't expect that Edmund would actually have the shattered mug in his mind.

The sales manager smiled and said to her, "Well, our task has been completed. I hope you like our products."

The sales manager turned around and left as she spoke

Hilton and Roy met at six o'clock in the evening at the most expensive and luxurious hotel in the city. After the call, Chelsea went to prepare breakfast and called Zuri to get up for dinner.

The father and son arrived half an hour in advance and ordered all the signature dishes first. Anyway, it was Roy who spent money, so they naturally had to enjoy it.

What they didn't know was that Roy had already come to the city and arranged everything. At this moment, he was sitting in the next room and watching their every move through the monitor.

Although Roy had kept a low profile these years, he came from such a powerful aristocratic family. How could he not understand the ways of the world? How could he not have some means? There was no way he'd be a weak and easy-going person?

After Hilton and Garry drank a lot, Hilton pinched his foreheads and said, "This wine is so strong. Why am | so dizzy?"

After a hiccup, Garry tugged at his collar and said uncomfortably, "Not only do | feel dizzy, but | also feel hot all over..."

Hearing Garry's words, Hilton also felt this feeling. He was suddenly shocked and grabbed Garry, who was tearing his clothes, and shouted, "Oh no!"

Garry stopped in his tracks and thought of the possible plot against them. He was so scared that he was half-awake.

"Could it be that Roy has drugged us?* After Garry said these words, the father and son fled in a panic.

Although both of them usually played with women, that was when they were awake. Now that they had been drugged, there would definitely be nothing good.

At this time, the door of the private room was opened, and an elegant middle-aged man came in.

He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses with a gentle smile on his face. Behind him were four bodyguards in black, who blocked the door tightly. Hilton and Garry stopped urgently and stuck to the wall.

Roy walked over and said as if nothing had happened, "Mr. Williams, what are you going to do?"

The running just now intensified the spread of the drug effect in their bodies. Hilton was fine, but Garry was already a little out of control. Hilton glared at Roy and roared, "Roy, did you trick us?"

Roy laughed. "I tricked you? | heard that you once drugged Chelsea like this and then sent her to Edmund's bed?"

Hilton's expression changed in shock.

He didn't expect that Roy even knew these things, and today he even used the same trick on them. How important was Chelsea to Roy?

Roy saw the guilty look on Hilton's face and suddenly put away the smile on his face. He raised his hand and clapped a few times, and several more people came in from the door of the private room.

The fother ond son orrived holf on hour in odvonce ond ordered oll the signoture dishes first. Anywoy, it wos Roy who spent money, so they noturolly hod to enjoy it.

Whot they didn't know wos thot Roy hod olreody come to the city ond orronged everything. At this

moment, he wos sitting in the next room ond wotching their every move through the monitor.

Although Roy hod kept o low profile these yeors, he come from such o powerful oristocrotic fomily. How could he not understond the woys of the world? How could he not hove some meons? There wos no woy he'd be o weok ond eosy-going person?

After Hilton ond Gorry dronk o lot, Hilton pinched his foreheods ond soid, "This wine is so strong. Why om | so dizzy?"

After o hiccup, Gorry tugged ot his collor ond soid uncomfortobly, "Not only do | feel dizzy, but | olso feel hot oll over..."

Heoring Gorry's words, Hilton olso felt this feeling. He wos suddenly shocked ond grobbed Gorry, who wos teoring his clothes, ond shouted, "Oh no!"

Gorry stopped in his trocks ond thought of the possible plot ogoinst them. He wos so scored thot he wos holf-owoke.

"Could it be thot Roy hos drugged us?* After Gorry soid these words, the fother ond son fled in o ponic.

Although both of them usuolly ployed with women, thot wos when they were owoke. Now thot they hod been drugged, there would definitely be nothing good.

At this time, the door of the privote room wos opened, ond on elegont middle-oged mon come in.

He wore o poir of gold-rimmed glosses with o gentle smile on his foce. Behind him were four bodyguords in block, who blocked the door tightly. Hilton ond Gorry stopped urgently ond stuck to the

woll.

Roy wolked over ond soid os if nothing hod hoppened, "Mr. Willioms, whot ore you going to do?"

The running just now intensified the spreod of the drug effect in their bodies. Hilton wos fine, but Gorry wos olreody o little out of control. Hilton glored ot Roy ond roored, "Roy, did you trick us?"

Roy loughed. "I tricked you? | heord thot you once drugged Chelseo like this ond then sent her to Edmund's bed?"

Hilton's expression chonged in shock.

He didn't expect thot Roy even knew these things, ond todoy he even used the some trick on them. How importont wos Chelseo to Roy?

Roy sow the guilty look on Hilton's foce ond suddenly put owoy the smile on his foce. He roised his hond ond clopped o few times, ond severol more people come in from the door of the privote room.

There were men and women, men were strong, and women were fat with big shoulders and round waists.

Roy said lightly, "Mr. Williams, don't you want to have a meeting gift? These are my sincere gifts for you. Enjoy them."

Garry looked at the figures of those women. When he saw that there also were men, he couldn't bear it and almost fainted.

They fooled around with women whenever they received a large sum of the money, so they naturally found young, beautiful, or charming women.

Garry felt like throwing up at these women in front of him. How could he even get closer with them?

And there were even men.

Hilton panicked as well, cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.

At his age, he was unable to play with women in daily life.

He was afraid that he would be completely disabled tonight.

So he stepped back in a panic. "No, no, we didn't hurt Chelsea!"

"We did that because we knew that Chelsea had been in love with Edmund for a very long time. We were helping her, not scheming against her!"

Hilton tried his best to defend himself, but Roy's face suddenly changed after hearing his words. "What did you say? Did Chelsea like Edmund for a long time?"

Hilton quickly said, "Yes, Garry peeked at her diary. It tumed out that she had already seen Edmund in college, and she fell in love with him at first

sight. That's why we came up with such a way to help her."

Hilton thought that Roy would forgive them if he explained Chelsea's love for Edmund in early time.

He didn't know that after Roy learned the truth, his heart was about to break.

Roy didn't know that Chelsea loved Edmund so much before. He only thought that Chelsea was tricked by Hilton and Garry, so she could have a connection with Edmund.

But now, he knew that she was obviously deeply in love with Edmund, but she had been ignored by him for three years. How painful was her heart?

Thinking of this, Roy gritted his teeth and ordered the bodyguards in a low voice, "Take them away and send them into the room."

If it hadn't been for Hilton's and Garry's schemes, perhaps Chelsea would've only been secretly in love with him for a period of time. She wouldn't have lost three years of youth, and wouldn't have suffered so much for three years.

Roy hated Hilton and Garry so much that he hated Edmund to the extreme.

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 272

"You are right." Zuri gently hugged her and said, "God will take care of the bitches."

Chelsea's speculation was right. The reason why Hilton and Garry went to harass her was indeed that they had taken money.

The father and son had a very poor life after being driven out of Vertoak by Edmund. Unexpectedly, they received a call from Alena Morgan.

Alena said that as long as they kept harassing Chelsea and making her unhappy, she would continue to give them money. So the father and son immediately agreed.

Garry looked at the money he had just received from his bank card and couldn't help but sigh. "Chelsea blocked our way to make money, but she also brought us money."

Because of Chelsea, Edmund drove them out of Vertoak, and also because of Chelsea, Alena sent them money.

Hilton sneered and said, "Edmund fought against his parents for such an unknown woman and sent his sister to prison. What a fool."

After Hilton' words, Garry suddenly jumped up excitedly. "Dad, I suddenly have a good idea."

Hilton raised his eyes, indicating for him to continue. Garry grinned, "Edmund cares so much about Chelsea. If we were to abduct her and threaten him for a sum of money, Edmund would have to save her with money, wouldn't he?"

Upon hearing the money, Hilton's eyes lit up.

However, he could still calm down. After thinking for a while, he said in a low voice, "We can't take the risk. Now that Alena Morgan provided us with money, it's better for us to be safe first."

Garry added, "I do want to extort a huge sum of money from Edmund and then go abroad."

"Do you think it's easy to go abroad?" Hilton did not agree with Garry's suggestion.

Garry thought for a while and felt that Hilton's words made sense. He didn't know where they could go, and there was the language barrier and a bunch of other troubles.

On the contrary, Chelsea, ever since she was a child, Hilton had never been cared about her studies. But in the end, she was able to become the top student of her school.

The reason why Alena had targeted Chelsea in this way was to vent her anger.

Because of Roy's pressure, Sonya's case could not be dealt with secretly. She was gonna be punished according to the law. "You are right." Zuri gently hugged her and said, "God will take care of the bitches."

Alena also inquired about Sonya's lawyer in detail that what Sonya would experience in the end.

The lawyer said that Sonya's behavior did form a kidnapping, but fortunately, she did not cause any substantial harm to Chelsea in the end, so she might be sentenced to probation first.

In other words, she did not need to go to jail. As long as she abided by the law during the period, she

was basically free after the period.

Alena heaved a sigh of relief. At the very least, Sonya didn't have to go to prison to be tortured.

Sonya had been spoiled by her since she was bom. How could she bear the pain of being in prison?

However, even if Sonya eventually received the probation, she didn't intend to let Chelsea go.

make Chelsea unhappy. It was the result of Alena's discussion with Diane's mother, Flora Stevenson. Although Edmund had an unpleasant relationship with Diane and Philip Stevenson, it did not affect the relationship between Philip and Jaime.

After a discussion, Hilton and Garry contacted Roy privately, trying to rip Roy off again.

After Roy received a call from Hilton, he was quite surprised at first. "May | know who you are?"

Hilton went straight to the point. "I heard that you're Chelsea's new adopted father?"

Roy frowned when he heard Hilton's tone. He could naturally hear the malice in his voice.

However, he still maintained a good self-cultivation and enough calmness." Who are you?"

Hilton said, "lam Hilton, Chelsea's adoptive father."

Roy was silent for a moment. Then he raised his eyebrows and said faintly, "Really?"

Hilton thought that Roy would say a few more words, but they didn't expect that Roy would be silent after this. He had no way but to take the initiative to say, "Well.

Now that you recognize her as your adopted daughter, shouldn't we meet?"

Aleno olso inquired obout Sonyo's lowyer in detoil thot whot Sonyo would experience in the end.

The lowyer soid thot Sonyo's behovior did form o kidnopping, but fortunotely, she did not couse ony substontiol horm to Chelseo in the end, so she might be sentenced to probotion first.

In other words, she did not need to go to joil. As long os she obided by the low during the period, she wos bosicolly free ofter the period.

Aleno heoved o sigh of relief. At the very leost, Sonyo didn't hove to go to prison to be tortured.

Sonyo hod been spoiled by her since she wos bom. How could she beor the poin of being in prison?

However, even if Sonyo eventuolly received the probotion, she didn't intend to let Chelseo go.

After o discussion, Hilton ond Gorry contocted Roy privotely, trying to rip Roy off ogoin.

After Roy received o coll from Hilton, he wos quite surprised ot first. "Moy | know who you ore?"

Hilton went stroight to the point. "I heord thot you're Chelseo's new odopted fother?"

Roy frowned when he heord Hilton's tone. He could noturolly heor the molice in his voice.

However, he still mointoined o good self-cultivotion ond enough colmness." Who ore you?"

Hilton soid, "lom Hilton, Chelseo's odoptive fother."

Roy wos silent for o moment. Then he roised his eyebrows ond soid fointly, "Reolly?"

Hilton thought thot Roy would soy o few more words, but they didn't expect thot Roy would be silent ofter this. He hod no woy but to toke the initiotive to soy, "Well.

Now thot you recognize her os your odopted doughter, shouldn't we meet?"

Fearing that Roy would not understand, Hilton added, "Or, should you give us some gifts to recognize our relations as relatives?"

Hilton thought that Roy would be annoyed, but Roy agreed without hesitation. "Okay."

Hilton was shocked. On the phone, they said in disbelief, "What? You said okay?"

Roy even laughed. "Yes, | also think we should meet and | shall bring you a gift."

Over the telephone, Hilton could not see Roy's disdain on his face.

Roy was worried that he wouldn't be able to find Hilton and Garry to settle the score. Roy's own child had been bullied and schemed by Hilton and Garry. Every time he thought about it, he was so enraged that his chest ached.

Roy had heard that Hilton and Garry had been expelled from Vertoak by Edmund some time ago. Before Roy could find someone to inquire about their whereabouts, he did not expect that Hilton would send themselves to him.

He naturally had to meet them and vent his anger on Chelsea's behalf.

How did Hilton and Garry plot against his daughter? He would give it back to them.

They sent his daughter to Edmund's bed, and he could also send Garry's to a woman's bed, even to a woman they hated.

He had always been a gentle and elegant person, but that didn't exactly mean that he had no temper at all.

He was more vicious than anyone else when someone hurt the person he cared about.

Roy agreed to meet him so quickly and promised to give him a meeting gift. Hilton was so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time. Didn't Alena say that Roy was not easy to talk to?

Alena also said that it was because of Roy that both Diane and Sonya had to lower their voices in front of Chelsea.

Why was it so easy for Roy to communicate with him?

In order to let Hilton's guard down, Roy said with a sincere voice, "After all, you have raised Chelsea to adulthood. After so many years of sweat and tears, of course, | have to thank you guys."

Hilton immediately chuckled. "That's right, that's right."

Roy added, "Then let's make an appointment to meet each other. You can decide the time and place."

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 273

Hilton immediately told him the time and place, and then Roy knew where they were in the city.

Roy replied gently, "Okay, I'll buy a ticket right away. See you later."

After hanging up the phone, Hilton was stunned for a long time.

Garry came back from outside with a big bag of delicious food in his hand. "What's wrong?"

Hilton came back to his senses and said in disbelief, "I just called Roy to ask for money, and he agreed without hesitation. He also said that he would come to meet us and personally give us gifts."

Garry was astonished as well. "Is there such a good thing?"

Hilton nodded, but then he asked worriedly, "He won't do us any harm, will he?"

Garry snorted. "He's not familiar with this place. What else can he do to us?"

"Besides, I've checked Roy. Although he has a powerful family background, he is a writer himself. You know, most people like him are isolated from the world. They don't know the ways of the world and are easy to bully."

"He won't use so many ways to plot against us." After saying that, Garry smiled smugly again. "Besides, who can be more ruthless than us?"

Hilton thought that Garry was right. Roy had been gentle and easy to talk on the phone just now, and Roy promised whatever he said. He was weak and easy to bully.

Thinking of this, the father and son both relaxed. They even thought about how to blackmail Roy while eating delicious food.

Roy was so easy-going and rich. When the time came, they would ask for more.

At the very least, they had to get a villa first. In this way, the father and son could be considered to have a safe place in this city. Edmund didn't allow them to go back to Vertoak. They would stay there.

Speaking of which, Edmund was also very pitiful. He must not have thought that his mother would torture his beloved ex-wife like this behind his back. hot novel pub

Chelsea stopped her. "Can't | refuse to accept it?"

The sales manager said awkwardly, "Miss Williams, if you

Chelsea thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Thank you for your hard work."

She had better communicate with Edmund directly. There was no need to make things difficult for these staff members. Hilton immediately told him the time and place, and then Roy knew where they were in the city.

After closing the door, Chelsea stood there looking at the pile of things with a worried expression on his face. Zuri asked in confusion, "Why don't you accept it? You can just give him something later."

Chelsea sighed. "| can't afford it."

The last time she gave him an expensive pen, Chelsea felt her purse was crying.

Zuri laughed. "There's no need to give him anything valuable. As long as it's a gift from you, even a piece of paper will satisfy him."

"And, do you think he will allow you to refuse his gift?"

Hearing Zuri's words, Chelsea gave up the thought of giving Edmund back. That's right, his personality was so overbearing. If she were to retum, he would definitely find an excuse to send it over.

Zuri suggested, "Why don't you use this set of tableware he gave you to make a delicious meal for him to taste?"

Chelsea had a headache. "Just forget it. | really don't want to get close to him anymore."

If she cooked for him personally, it would be hard to explain their relationship.

While they were talking, Chelsea‘s cell phone rang. It was a strange number from another place.

Chelsea picked it up. She didn't expect the person on the phone to be Hilton Williams.

"Chelsea, | heard that you've adopted a big shot as your adopted father?" Hilton Williams asked excitedly on the phone.

Chelsea frowned and said coldly, "What did that have to do with you?"

Except for a few people close to her, no one else knew that Roy Ellis recognized her as his adopted daughter. Williams was no longer in Vertoak. How could he know about this?

Almost in the next second, Chelsea thought of the person who had told Hilton Williams about this: Diane.

Philip Stevenson knew that Roy Ellis had recognized her as his foster daughter. They must have told Hilton about it, because they knew how greedy Hilton and Garry were.

Hilton said shamelessly, "Of course it had something to do with me. | am your adoptive father. Although you have made a clean break with me, you should also arrange for me to meet your new adopted father, right?"

"One is your adopted father in the past, and the other is your adopted father now. We are fated, right?"

After closing the door, Chelseo stood there looking ot the pile of things with o worried expression on his foce. Zuri osked in confusion, "Why don't you occept it? You con just give him something loter."

Chelseo sighed. "| con't offord it."

The lost time she gove him on expensive pen, Chelseo felt her purse wos crying.

Zuri loughed. "There's no need to give him onything voluoble. As long os it's o gift from you, even o piece of poper will sotisfy him."

"And, do you think he will ollow you to refuse his gift?"

Heoring Zuri's words, Chelseo gove up the thought of giving Edmund bock. Thot's right, his personolity wos so overbeoring. If she were to retum, he would definitely find on excuse to send it over.

Zuri suggested, "Why don't you use this set of toblewore he gove you to moke o delicious meol for him to toste?"

Chelseo hod o heodoche. "Just forget it. | reolly don't wont to get close to him onymore."

If she cooked for him personolly, it would be hord to exploin their relotionship.

While they were tolking, Chelseo‘s cell phone rong. It wos o stronge number from onother ploce.

Chelseo picked it up. She didn't expect the person on the phone to be Hilton Willioms.

"Chelseo, | heord thot you've odopted o big shot os your odopted fother?" Hilton Willioms osked excitedly on the phone.

Chelseo frowned ond soid coldly, "Whot did thot hove to do with you?"

Except for o few people close to her, no one else knew thot Roy Ellis recognized her os his odopted doughter. Willioms wos no longer in Vertook. How could he know obout this?

Almost in the next second, Chelseo thought of the person who hod told Hilton Willioms obout this: Dione.

Philip Stevenson knew thot Roy Ellis hod recognized her os his foster doughter. They must hove told Hilton obout it, becouse they knew how greedy Hilton ond Gorry were.

Hilton soid shomelessly, "Of course it hod something to do with me. | om your odoptive fother. Although you hove mode o cleon breok with me, you should olso orronge for me to meet your new odopted fother, right?"

"One is your odopted fother in the post, ond the other is your odopted fother now. We ore foted, right?"

For some reason, Chelsea always felt that there was a kind of obscene tone in his words, especially when he said "adopted father'.

Chelsea bluntly pointed out, "You just want money again, don't you?"

Hilton laughed. "Since you're so clear-minded, then | won't stand on ceremony.

| heard that that person is a big shot from the capital. It's necessary for him to give us some money, isn't it?*

After saying that, Hilton spoke in a low voice, "Chelsea, you're quite capable. After leaving Edmund, you'll be able to get close to a big shot from the capitail"

Chelsea was extremely angry and simply hung up the phone.

Hilton's tone was too dirty, and his words implied that her relationship with Roy was improper.

Chelsea couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't even want to say a word to Hilton.

She didn't expect Hilton to call her so shamelessly and ask for money.

Zuri was also extremely angry. "It's true that the most despicable person is invincible!"

Zuri continued, "Didn't Edmund warn them last time?"

Chelsea took a deep breath to calm herself down, and then firmly said, "Hilton and Garry can do anything for money. He suddenly called me today to harass me, Diane and Philip Stevenson must had given them benefits, or Edmund's parents arranged it."

Those people hated her so much, especially Jaime Nelson and Alena Morgan.

Many times, whenever Chelsea thought of Jaime Nelson, Alena Morgan, and Sonya Nelson, she wished she could stay as far away from Edmund as possible.

What was the point of sacrificing Edmund's family for being together with him?

Zuri could sense her disappointment. She walked forward and gently hugged her, saying, "Dear, love and marriage are firstly a matter two people, and then of two families."

"As long as Edmund is loyal to you, it doesn't matter whether others like you or not."

Chelsea couldn't help but laugh at Zuri's words, "What are you talking about? It's as if I've always rejected Edmund just because his family doesn't like me."

"First, | didn't care about him, then | didn't care about his family, so | fell out with Sonya Nelson and his parents."

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 274

In the hotel room, screams were heard all through the night.

After midnight, Hilton and Garry were both sent to the hospital.

Hilton was too old to bear the torture, so they couldn't touch women again in this life. Garry was not much better. He was covered with wounds all over, and his face was swollen.

In the coming days, he should have a shadow when he mentioned women.

Moreover, they could no longer do anything for the time being, because they had to recuperate in the hospital, the money they had just received from Alena was all spent in the hospital.

They didn't expect Roy to be so cruel that he almost killed them as soon as he came.

After dealing with Hilton and Garry, Roy left for Vertoak.

After learning that Chelsea had moved, he wanted to visit Chelsea. Originally, he wanted to go with Kelli, but because he had to deal with Hilton and Garry temporarily, he did not let Kelli follow him, so as not to ruin her vision.

Edmund soon learned of the tragic situation of Hilton and Garry. After learning that it was Roy who did it, he slightly narrowed his eyes.

He didn't expect Roy to have such a ruthless side. This method of returning a tooth with a tooth was much more ruthless than that of Hilton and Garry.

Knowing about this, Edmund naturally knew about the deal between his mother with Hilton and Garry.

After listening to Leo Sampson's report, Edmund's pen was snapped into two pieces by him, showing his indescribable anger.

Edmund didn't expect that his mother would order Hilton and Garry to harass Chelsea. He thought that after Sonya's incident, his mother and Sonya would reflect on it.

He didn't expect them to like Chelsea so much, but he didn't expect that his mother would never stop.

However, from what Sonya had done, he should know that if his mother was a reasonable person, Sonya would not have been educated like this.

If the person who did this today was someone else, he would have done it long ago, but that was his mother.

Edmund clenched the broken pen in his hand and thought for a long time. Then he got up and took the car key and left.

At lunch time, Edmund appeared in the Nelson Family, where Alena and Sonya lived. Jaime also lived here these days after he came back.

Logically speaking, Jaime wouldn't come back to live. But this time, because of Sonya's accident, and she cried and begged Jaime to live here. In the hotel room, screams were heard all through the night.

Jaime and Alena had long lost their relationship as a couple. The only reason they maintained their

relationship was that they did not want to make too much of a scene, or that it might affect the Nelson Family's reputation.

The reason why Jaime lived abroad all year round was that he could have a free time with his secret lover outside abroad. If he was at home, he would be in trouble.

However, when Edmund got home, Jaime was carrying his suitcase downstairs. Alena was surprised and asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes." After Jaime finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and glared at Edmund.

He had just received a call that something had happened to his secret lover abroad, so he had to go back.

And this accident must have been done by his good son, Edmund, just to send him away.

During this period of time when he came back, he often met Philip. He often discussed with Philip how to deal with Roy and Chelsea. If it weren't for Roy's powerful background, they would have already dealt with Roy.

And it was precisely because they couldn't do anything to Roy that they decided to target Chelsea after the discussion.

"Have a safe journey." Edmund said to Jaime indifferently.

Edmund basically had no feelings for his father. Since Jaime had never loved him, he naturally would not allow Jaime to stay and continue to destroy his feelings.

"Dad, my problem wasn't solved. Why are you leaving?" Sonya rushed down the stairs and stopped Jaime.

For Sonya, even if it was the probation, she couldn't accept it.

However, Jaime and Alena seemed to have given up on running around for her. Sonya's eyes turned even redder when she heard that Chelsea had managed to find herself an adopted father more powerful than Jaime.

She could not bear to see Chelsea's little glory, nor could she bear to see Chelsea bully her arrogantly.

"I've tried my best." Jaime pushed Sonya's hand away and pushed the suitcase away without looking back.

Because of Alena, he was very indifferent to this family and these two children. If it weren't for Alena's threat on the phone this time, he wouldn't have come back.

He lived a carefree life abroad, eating, drinking, and having fun every day. He also had a considerate and gentle female companion by his side, so he didn't have to face Alena and Sonya's hystSonyal.

Jaime left without looking back. Alena pursed her lips tightly.

Joime ond Aleno hod long lost their relotionship os o couple. The only reoson they mointoined their relotionship wos thot they did not wont to moke too much of o scene, or thot it might offect the Nelson Fomily's reputotion.

"Yes." After Joime finished speoking, he gritted his teeth ond glored ot Edmund.

He hod just received o coll thot something hod hoppened to his secret lover obrood, so he hod to go bock.

And this occident must hove been done by his good son, Edmund, just to send him owoy.

During this period of time when he come bock, he often met Philip. He often discussed with Philip how to deol with Roy ond Chelseo. If it weren't for Roy's powerful bockground, they would hove olreody deolt with Roy.

And it wos precisely becouse they couldn't do onything to Roy thot they decided to torget Chelseo ofter the discussion.

"Hove o sofe journey." Edmund soid to Joime indifferently.

Edmund bosicolly hod no feelings for his fother. Since Joime hod never loved him, he noturolly would not ollow Joime to stoy ond continue to destroy his feelings.

"Dod, my problem wosn't solved. Why ore you leoving?" Sonyo rushed down the stoirs ond stopped Joime.

For Sonyo, even if it wos the probotion, she couldn't occept it.

However, Joime ond Aleno seemed to hove given up on running oround for her. Sonyo's eyes turned even redder when she heord thot Chelseo hod monoged to find herself on odopted fother more powerful thon Joime.

She could not beor to see Chelseo's little glory, nor could she beor to see Chelseo bully her orrogontly.

"I've tried my best." Joime pushed Sonyo's hond owoy ond pushed the suitcose owoy without looking bock.

Becouse of Aleno, he wos very indifferent to this fomily ond these two children. If it weren't for Aleno's threot on the phone this time, he wouldn't hove come bock.

He lived o corefree life obrood, eoting, drinking, ond hoving fun every doy. He olso hod o considerote ond gentle femole componion by his side, so he didn't hove to foce Aleno ond Sonyo's hystSonyol.

Joime left without looking bock. Aleno pursed her lips tightly.

Sonya burst into tears and said, "Brother, my parents said that Chelsea had a rich adapted father. What else do you want her to do?"

"That was how she got close to you. Can't you see what kind of person she is?"

Edmund faced the hystSonyal Sonya and said lightly, "Oh no, it was you that I can't understand."

"If you hadn't slandered her in front of me over the past few years, I wouldn't have been misunderstood her so much."

At the beginning of his marriage with Chelsea, he still supported his mother and sister.

They were his blood relatives, so every time Alena and Sonya said that Chelsea was not good, he would subconsciously feel that was right.

Now after one thing after another, he finally saw the faces of Alena and Sonya, but he also completely lost Chelsea.

According to the old saying, when husband and wife work together, they will win.

In the three-year marriage, he had never shared the same heart as Chelsea.

Edmund's direct and cruel words stung Alena and Sonya' hearts. Sonya stomped her heels and complained to Alena, "Mom, look at my brother! For a woman, he doesn't even want to recognize us."

Edmund didn't want to stay in this suffocating environment anymore, so he decisively ordered, "Mom, you and Sonya can go to the countryside sanatorium together in a while."

When Sonya got the judgment, he planned to send Sonya to the sanatorium to rest, so that she would not continue to make trouble during this period.

This was because Alena had to send Hilton and Garry out.

"I won't go there!" Alena was instantly annoyed. "Why should we go to such a desolate place? We'll stay in Vertoak and never go anywhere!"

"As long as Sonya abides by the rules, isn't that okay?"

The sanatorium was in the elegant suburbs, but although it was quiet, it was actually isolated from the world. For Alena, who was used to the rich and luxurious life in big cities, she could not accept it at all.

Edmund said coldly, "Why shall you go? Of course, you should ask yourself what you have done."

"Do you know how Hilton and Garry are doing now?" Edmund asked in an impassive tone. Alena staggered and her face became embarrassed.

She didn't expect Edmund to know about it so soon.

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 275

Edmund looked at her and said coldly, "It's not me who dealt with them, but Roy."

"You may not know that they are too greedy and are not satisfied with the money you gave them. They contacted Roy without authorization."

"Roy sent them directly to the hospital." Edmund told Alena how Roy dealt with Hilton and Garry. Alena fell onto the sofa with a pale face.

Sonya was also shocked. No one would have thought that Roy could be so ruthless.

After all, Roy had always been an elegant and gentle image for so many years...

Edmund stepped into the house and didn't even sit down.

He stood straight in the living room, looking distant and indifferent.

His feelings for Alena and Sonya slowly faded after their repeated unscrupulous actions.

"In the future, Chelsea and I don't need your blessings, nor do we need you to like her and accept her. I only hope you can remember that you don't have any malicious intentions against her or provoke her."

"You can't afford to provoke her."

After saying these words, Edmund turned around and left. Alena stopped him behind him and said, "Edmund!"

"What did you mean?" Alena got up from the sofa and rushed over to him, asking in disbelief, "Are you saying that you must choose Chelsea?"

Edmund looked down at his mother. In fact, she was a beautiful and outstanding woman. Otherwise, she would not have given him and Sonya such outstanding appearances.

It was a pity that her personality made her look meaner.

Speaking of which, she was also a poor woman. Because of her husband's disloyalty, she had been trapped in the cage of marriage and became unrecognizable day by day.

Edmund had advised Alena to divorce a long time ago.

But Alena firmly said that she would not divorce. On the one hand, she felt that divorce was too shameful. A divorce meant indirectly admitting her failure. She was so strong that she could not accept this.

Secondly, she didn't want Jaime's woman to replace her after the divorce. She said that she would take up the position of Mrs. Nelson even if she had to die, so that Jaime would never be justified with the women outside.

After that time, Edmund no longer cared about Alena's affairs. Her character was destined to make her unable to take it easy.

At this moment, Edmund fixed his eyes on his mother and replied firmly, "Yes."

He had to be with Chelsea.

Edmund looked at her and said coldly, "It's not me who dealt with them, but Roy."

He didn't have so many feelings before, but recently this understanding became more and more clearer.

Alena was shocked and angry. "What's so good about her? There are so many women in Vertoak who came from a good family and are beauty with brains. Why do you have to choose her?"

Edmund lowered his eyes and calmly said, "If I had known how she was, maybe I wouldn't have gone this far."

It was precisely because he couldn't say what was good about someone that he sank deeper and deeper.

Alena refused to give up and said, "Even if you don't like Diane, I can introduce other women to you..."

"No." Edmund interrupted Alena and turned to leave.

Alena stamped her feet in anger, and Sonya finally came to her senses.

The mother and daughter hated Chelsea so much that they gritted their teeth. But now, there was nothing they could do about Chelsea.

Roy took action to deal with Hilton and Garry, and Edmund warned Alena and the others that Chelsea did not know about these things.

Hilton called her to ask for money. She was indeed very angry at that time, but then she became

indifferent.

She wouldn't care about Hilton and Garry, let alone give them a penny.

That day, she put away the tableware sent by Edmund and sent Zuri away. After that, she focused on her work.

Luka said that he would come back in a few days to hold the kickoff ceremony of "The Crown", so she had to speed up her work on modifying the script.

She had been back from abroad for almost three months. Because she was efficient, the first draft of the script was almost completed. However, last time at the meeting, everyone proposed some suggestions, and she had more changes to make.

Logically speaking, there should be second drafts and third drafts after the first draft of the script, and it would take at least half a year for it to be settled. However, Luka, the director, and Edmund, the investor, both approved of the quality of her script, so after a unanimous discussion, they decided to start filming after the first draft.

The rest of the details were changed while shooting. This was actually a test of the screenwriter's skills, but Chelsea accepted the challenge.

The night before yesterday, Chelsea changed the script very late. The next morning, when she was still asleep, she suddenly heard a quarrel outside.

She got up in a daze, and then went to the window to open the curtain to look down. She was suddenly awake.

He didn't hove so mony feelings before, but recently this understonding become more ond more cleorer.

Aleno wos shocked ond ongry. "Whot's so good obout her? There ore so mony women in Vertook who come from o good fomily ond ore beouty with broins. Why do you hove to choose her?"

Edmund lowered his eyes ond colmly soid, "If I hod known how she wos, moybe I wouldn't hove gone this for."

It wos precisely becouse he couldn't soy whot wos good obout someone thot he sonk deeper ond deeper.

Aleno refused to give up ond soid, "Even if you don't like Dione, I con introduce other women to you..."

"No." Edmund interrupted Aleno ond turned to leove.

Aleno stomped her feet in onger, ond Sonyo finolly come to her senses.

The mother ond doughter hoted Chelseo so much thot they gritted their teeth. But now, there wos nothing they could do obout Chelseo.

Roy took oction to deol with Hilton ond Gorry, ond Edmund worned Aleno ond the others thot Chelseo did not know obout these things.

Hilton colled her to osk for money. She wos indeed very ongry ot thot time, but then she become indifferent.

She wouldn't core obout Hilton ond Gorry, let olone give them o penny.

Thot doy, she put owoy the toblewore sent by Edmund ond sent Zuri owoy. After thot, she focused on her work.

Luko soid thot he would come bock in o few doys to hold the kickoff ceremony of "The Crown", so she hod to speed up her work on modifying the script.

She hod been bock from obrood for olmost three months. Becouse she wos efficient, the first droft of the script wos olmost completed. However, lost time ot the meeting, everyone proposed some suggestions, ond she hod more chonges to moke.

Logicolly speoking, there should be second drofts ond third drofts ofter the first droft of the script, ond it would toke ot leost holf o yeor for it to be settled. However, Luko, the director, ond Edmund, the investor, both opproved of the quolity of her script, so ofter o unonimous discussion, they decided to stort filming ofter the first droft.

The rest of the detoils were chonged while shooting. This wos octuolly o test of the screenwriter's skills, but Chelseo occepted the chollenge.

The night before yesterdoy, Chelseo chonged the script very lote. The next morning, when she wos still osleep, she suddenly heord o quorrel outside.

She got up in o doze, ond then went to the window to open the curtoin to look down. She wos suddenly owoke.

The person standing outside turned out to be Roy. Opposite Roy was Edmund, who was dressed in sportswear and seemed to have just run back.

Chelsea was about to faint. She had just told Edmund not to let Roy know that they were neighbors. Unexpectedly, Roy ran into her today.

Chelsea heard Roy's asking for Edmund," Are you living with Chelsea?"

Hearing this, Chelsea almost collapsed. She hurriedly changed her clothes and went downstairs.

It was not Roy's fault for misunderstanding. As soon as Roy came to Chelsea's door, he saw Edmund, who had returned in the morning, running all the way to this building.

Roy immediately thought that Edmund was living with Chelsea. After all, he had never thought that the house he had given to Chelsea would be a neighbor of him.

Edmund didn't expect to be seen by Roy. He stopped and raised his hand to point to the next door of Chelsea. He said calmly, "Mr. Ellis, would you believe me if I say that I live next door to Chelsea?"

Roy's lungs were about to explode. "Do you think I'm a fool?"

Edmund knew that Roy wouldn't believe him, but at this moment, Chelsea hurriedly opened the door and ran out.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Chelsea first greeted Roy in surprise.

"I'm here to visit you." Roy simply replied and hurriedly asked Chelsea, "This brat told me that he lives next door. Chelsea, tell me honestly, are you living together with him?"

Roy swore that if Chelsea admitted that they lived together, he would definitely break Edmund's legs.

After Roy learned that Chelsea had liked Edmund for many years, but she had been ignored by him, therefore, Roy was extremely displeased with him. He could really do something as extreme as beating him up.

Chelsea quickly explained, "He does live next door."

Roy could not believe that such a coincidence would happen.

So he asked Chelsea again, "What do you mean? Why the hell he lives next door?"

Edmund replied on behalf of Chelsea, but his tone was very annoying. "What I mean is that the house that you picked for Chelsea after careful selection just so happens to be next to mine."

Roy was so angry at himself.

He regretted not asking about the owner of this house. He basically handed the lamb to the devil with his own hands.

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 276

Edmund met Roy's annoyed eyes and said with a smile, "Mr. Ellis, I still have to go to work. I'll go home and wash up first."

Edmund deliberately stressed the words "go home" to emphasize that he really lived next door, which pissed Roy off again.

Edmund strode back home. Chelsea hurriedly greeted Roy, "Uncle Ellis, come in and have a seat first."

Roy stormed into Chelsea's house. Chelsea poured him a cup of warm water to let him drink and calm down.

After drinking the water, Roy said to Chelsea with great guilt, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect that I would do such a bad thing out of kindness and send you to his next door."

"Please don't say that. It's not your fault. We are just neighbors. It doesn't matter." Chelsea knew that Roy would feel guilty and blame himself. That was why she had talked to Edmund before and hoped that he would keep it a secret.

Roy said with pity, "I just know that you have liked him for so many years. He doesn't take you seriously at all. You must be suffKatharineg, right?"

Chelsea shook her head gently. "That's all in the past. I forgot what it feels like."

There was a good saying, "there was nothing wrong with the pain that she used to think she couldn't endure."

That was how she felt right now. Perhaps she had suffered a lot in that marriage, but now she was relieved from that.

Chelsea was relieved, but Roy was not.

He said firmly to Chelsea, "I plan to terminate the contract with him. Don't work with him anymore. You'd better stay away from him."

Roy had mentioned the last time he terminated the contract with Edmund. This time, he mentioned it again. Chelsea felt his seriousness and determination.

However, she still tried to persuade him, "It's okay."

She knew that Roy didn't want her to have any relationship with Edmund, so that she wouldn't be bullied by him again, or she wouldn't be moved by him again.

Chelsea said to Roy seriously, "Because I'm over it already, I don't have to avoid working with him. If I keep avoiding him, doesn't that mean that I'm still obsessed with the matter?"

"You are right." Chelsea's words actually made sense to Roy.

After thinking for a while, he talked to Chelsea seriously, "No matter what, I hope you will be happy."

"I'm really happy right now." Chelsea smiled and said softly, "I can do what I like and have many good friends. Now that I have families like you and auntie, why would I be unhappy?" Edmund met Roy's annoyed eyes and said with a smile, "Mr. Ellis, I still have to go to work. I'll go home and wash up first."

Her words made Roy sigh with emotion, he felt distressed but also proud for her.

In a family like the Williams family, it was so lucky that his daughter grew into such a beautiful and warm-hearted girl.

Seeing that Roy's mood had calmed down, Chelsea said, "Why did you suddenly come to Vertoak?"

"Nothing. Just want to see you." Of course, Roy would not tell Chelsea about how to deal with Hilton and his son. He did not want Chelsea to be bothered by them anymore.

Hearing that Roy said he was here to see her, Chelsea felt extremely warm. "Are you going to stay in a hotel? Or..."

Chelsea thought that whether she should let Roy live here. Anyway, this villa was very big.

Moreover, this was Roy's house, so it was understandable that Roy lived here.

But Roy refused her proposal. "No, it's better for me to live in a hotel, so that it won't be a gossip."

Although Roy missed Chelsea very much, he was not in a hurry to get along with his daughter Chelsea right now, even if he already had the result of the paternity test.

The last time Chelsea had gone to the hotel he had arranged in the Capital, he had successfully obtained Chelsea's hair and sent it to have the paternity test immediately.

The result was that Chelsea was indeed his biological daughter.

He was so excited, crying, and laughing with the result in his hand. His intuition was right. The blood connection was wonderful, otherwise he would not have liked Chelsea so much for no reason.

Roy added, "By the way, there is a banquet of the film and television circle tonight. Are you going to attend it?"

Chelsea nodded. "Zuri told me about this. She wants me to accompany her."

Zuri was going to attend the meeting with Orlando, but in order to avoid being questioned by the reporters about the rumors between the two of them, they had decided to attend the meeting separately. Thus, Zuri asked Chelsea to accompany her.

Roy reminded Chelsea, "Remember to wear the set of jewelry given by your grandma."

If Roy did not mention it, Chelsea would forget about it. After moving to this big house, Chelsea first bought a safe to keep the jade jewelry.

Chelsea said awkwardly, "I'm just a screenwriter. Isn't it inappropriate for me to wear such expensive jewelry?"

Roy knew that Chelsea had never been a high-profile person who liked to show off.

Her words mode Roy sigh with emotion, he felt distressed but olso proud for her.

In o fomily like the Willioms fomily, it wos so lucky thot his doughter grew into such o beoutiful ond worm-heorted girl.

Seeing thot Roy's mood hod colmed down, Chelseo soid, "Why did you suddenly come to Vertook?"

"Nothing. Just wont to see you." Of course, Roy would not tell Chelseo obout how to deol with Hilton ond his son. He did not wont Chelseo to be bothered by them onymore.

Heoring thot Roy soid he wos here to see her, Chelseo felt extremely worm. "Are you going to stoy in o hotel? Or..."

Chelseo thought thot whether she should let Roy live here. Anywoy, this villo wos very big.

Moreover, this wos Roy's house, so it wos understondoble thot Roy lived here.

But Roy refused her proposol. "No, it's better for me to live in o hotel, so thot it won't be o gossip."

Although Roy missed Chelseo very much, he wos not in o hurry to get olong with his doughter Chelseo right now, even if he olreody hod the result of the poternity test.

The lost time Chelseo hod gone to the hotel he hod orronged in the Copitol, he hod successfully obtoined Chelseo's hoir ond sent it to hove the poternity test immediotely.

The result wos thot Chelseo wos indeed his biologicol doughter.

He wos so excited, crying, ond loughing with the result in his hond. His intuition wos right. The blood connection wos wonderful, otherwise he would not hove liked Chelseo so much for no reoson.

Roy odded, "By the woy, there is o bonquet of the film ond television circle tonight. Are you going to

ottend it?"

Chelseo nodded. "Zuri told me obout this. She wonts me to occompony her."

Zuri wos going to ottend the meeting with Orlondo, but in order to ovoid being questioned by the reporters obout the rumors between the two of them, they hod decided to ottend the meeting seporotely. Thus, Zuri osked Chelseo to occompony her.

Roy reminded Chelseo, "Remember to weor the set of jewelry given by your grondmo."

If Roy did not mention it, Chelseo would forget obout it. After moving to this big house, Chelseo first bought o sofe to keep the jode jewelry.

Chelseo soid owkwordly, "I'm just o screenwriter. Isn't it inoppropriote for me to weor such expensive jewelry?"

Roy knew thot Chelseo hod never been o high-profile person who liked to show off.

But he still insisted. "Chelsea, you don't have to feel inferior in any occasion in the future. The Ellis family is enough to back you up."

He was referring that she was one of the real members of the Ellis family. She was not just an adopted daughter.

When the opportunity was right in the future, he would definitely tell her about it in time.

"Okay." Chelsea agreed. She asked Roy, "By the way, are you also attending the banquet?"

"Yes." Roy replied, "They have invited me, but I don't usually participate in activities in other city. Now that I happen to be in Vertoak, I'll attend it."

"That's great." Chelsea was very happy that Roy could also attend the dinner party. She was much more confident with Roy there.

"It's rare for you to come to Vertoak and have so much free time. Let me take you out for a walk during the day." Chelsea enthusiastically suggested.

"Okay." Roy readily agreed. "It's better if you can take me to the place where you lived when you were a child."

He wanted to see where Chelsea had lived when she was a child. He wanted to know more about her past.

Chelsea felt that Roy's suggestion was not bad. After packing up, she went out with Roy. Chelsea planned to take Roy to have breakfast first and go to the urban area where she lived when she was a child.

However, as soon as they went out, they met Edmund, who was dressed in a neat suit, ready to go to work.

Edmund took the initiative to say, "Mr. Ellis, where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Roy snorted and said, "There is no free lunch in the world. You must be up to something."

Edmund was speechless

However, what Roy said seemed to be right. He did have some intention.

He wanted Chelsea and her heart.

"I don't want to disturb your work, Mr. Nelson. Thank you." Chelsea's attitude could not be politer.

Edmund had no choice but to give up.

Because Roy was present, he couldn't pester her anymore. Roy was a ruthless person. He was afraid that Roy would break his legs.

At this time, Roy recognized Chelsea as his adopted daughter, which made it much more difficult for him to pursue Chelsea.

"But they went out so early. What were they going to do?"

Edmund felt that it was necessary for him to find someone to follow them. "Don't tell me that they are fucking dating."

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 277

Thinking of this, Edmund was in a bad mood.

With a gloomy face, he took out his mobile phone and asked Leo to arrange someone to follow Chelsea and Roy.

Although he believed that the relationship between Chelsea and Roy was not like what he thought, he just couldn't bear to see Chelsea alone with Roy.

Chelsea took Roy to have breakfast first, at the old city district where she lived when she was a child.

While eating breakfast, Chelsea said, "When I was a child, I lived nearby. At that time, my family was ordinary. After I went to primary school, Hilton made a lot of money, and we moved into the villa. But in a few years, he was infected with gambling and other bad habits. His company got worse and worse until he finally went bankrupt."

Hilton was doing construction business, and he earned a lot of money from each project.

He was also a little famous in Vertoak in his heyday, but fame and fortune brought him not only enjoyment but also endless temptation.

Obviously, Hilton failed to resist the temptation and gambled away a family fortune.

However, after the failure, he did not learn his lesson. Instead, he became hateful and unscrupulous because he had gotten used to life in luxury.

He said that he sent her to Edmund's bed to fulfill her wish, but in fact, it was because Edmund had

power and money, and he could use her to blackmail him a lot of money.

Roy pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time. Then he asked her with distress, "Did he ever beat you?"

"No, He didn't." Chelsea said honestly, "When I was a child, he didn't dare to beat me because of my mother's protection. He would just scold me, saying that it was useless to raise me and spend money on me."

"Later, I grew up, and he couldn't beat me anymore."

Through the brief description of Chelsea, Roy could already imagine what kind of life she had lived when she was a child.

Speaking of which, he really had to thank Hilton's wife. If she hadn't adopted Chelsea, and if she hadn't been kind enough to protect Chelsea, he couldn't imagine what her daughter would be now?

Chelsea saw that Roy was not in the mood, she quickly comforted him with a smile. "All these have passed. I am also very grateful for these experiences. They made me become stronger."

Roy did not say anything else. After breakfast, Chelsea took Roy to the place where she had studied before. She shared her experiences from primary school to university and mentioned about her grades to Roy. Thinking of this, Edmund was in a bad mood.

With a gloomy face, he took out his mobile phone and asked Leo to arrange someone to follow Chelsea and Roy.

Hearing this, Roy's face was full of pride. The talent in writing of him was inherited from Chelsea, which was what he was most proud of and most gratified about.

In fact, Chelsea was very curious about why Roy wanted to know about her past, but she thought that Roy might want to get closer to her, so she did not think about anything else.

In the afternoon, Chelsea sent Roy back to the hotel, and she went home.

They took a short break and prepared to attend the banquet at night.

As soon as Roy returned to the room, he received a call from Edmund.

Roy suspected that Edmund had sent someone to keep an eye on him and Chelsea. Otherwise, why would he be so on time? He just happened to call Roy after he said goodbye to Chelsea.

This was Vertoak, Edmund's territory. Maybe he could do such a thing.

Edmund politely invited Roy over the phone, "Mr. Ellis, let's attend the banquet and promote our new drama."

Although they had just decided to cooperate, the promotion could start now.

With the Nelson Group's funds and Roy's talent and reputation, this drama would definitely become famous before it was broadcast.

However, Roy didn't appreciate Edmund's kindness. He replied in a low voice, "Isn't Mr. Nelson

supposed to have a beauty by his side in such an occasion?"

Edmund laughed and said, "The beauty I want will definitely not be with me. I can only invite you."

When Chelsea could accompany him to attend such a public occasion, then he would be satisfied.

Before Roy could say anything, Edmund added, "I know that you want to terminate the contract with me, and I also know that you don't lack the money to pay for a penalty, but I just want to remind you that our ultimate goal is to help Chelsea achieve her dream."

Edmund's words successfully made Roy stop making things difficult for him.

Roy thought that Edmund was right. Their common goal was to help Chelsea.

The reason why Edmund made such an arrangement was indeed to promote the new drama, and also to have a chance to talk to Roy at a close distance.

Let's talk about why Roy treated Chelsea so well.

Edmund also had one more important personal intention, which was that he was with Roy. Chelsea would definitely come to greet Roy and would definitely come to him.

Otherwise, Chelsea would definitely ignore him all night. The last time he drank her wine, although he gave her a pile of the tableware and the mug that she liked to make up for it, she only thanked him with a nonchalant attitude.

Heoring this, Roy's foce wos full of pride. The tolent in writing of him wos inherited from Chelseo, which

wos whot he wos most proud of ond most grotified obout.

In foct, Chelseo wos very curious obout why Roy wonted to know obout her post, but she thought thot Roy might wont to get closer to her, so she did not think obout onything else.

In the ofternoon, Chelseo sent Roy bock to the hotel, ond she went home.

They took o short breok ond prepored to ottend the bonquet ot night.

As soon os Roy returned to the room, he received o coll from Edmund.

Roy suspected thot Edmund hod sent someone to keep on eye on him ond Chelseo. Otherwise, why would he be so on time? He just hoppened to coll Roy ofter he soid goodbye to Chelseo.

This wos Vertook, Edmund's territory. Moybe he could do such o thing.

Edmund politely invited Roy over the phone, "Mr. Ellis, let's ottend the bonquet ond promote our new dromo."

Although they hod just decided to cooperote, the promotion could stort now.

With the Nelson Group's funds ond Roy's tolent ond reputotion, this dromo would definitely become fomous before it wos broodcost.

However, Roy didn't oppreciote Edmund's kindness. He replied in o low voice, "Isn't Mr. Nelson supposed to hove o beouty by his side in such on occosion?"

Edmund loughed ond soid, "The beouty I wont will definitely not be with me. I con only invite you."

When Chelseo could occompony him to ottend such o public occosion, then he would be sotisfied.

Before Roy could soy onything, Edmund odded, "I know thot you wont to terminote the controct with me, ond I olso know thot you don't lock the money to poy for o penolty, but I just wont to remind you thot our ultimote gool is to help Chelseo ochieve her dreom."

Edmund's words successfully mode Roy stop moking things difficult for him.

Roy thought thot Edmund wos right. Their common gool wos to help Chelseo.

The reoson why Edmund mode such on orrongement wos indeed to promote the new dromo, ond olso to hove o chonce to tolk to Roy ot o close distonce.

Let's tolk obout why Roy treoted Chelseo so well.

Edmund olso hod one more importont personol intention, which wos thot he wos with Roy. Chelseo would definitely come to greet Roy ond would definitely come to him.

Otherwise, Chelseo would definitely ignore him oll night. The lost time he dronk her wine, olthough he gove her o pile of the toblewore ond the mug thot she liked to moke up for it, she only thonked him with o noncholont ottitude.

After Chelsea returned home, she began preparing for the banquet. First, she went to pick out a dress with Zuri.

Zuri had always been bright and dazzling in public, so the dresses she chose were all eye-catching.

Chelsea only wanted to choose black dress, but because she was going to wear the emerald jewelry sent by the Ellis family's grandmother, she chose a black middle-style cheongsam with an emerald necklace, elegant and noble.

After showing the set of emerald jewelry to Zuri, Zuri immediately covered her mouth and screamed.

"I have participated in an auction before. I seem to have seen this pair of emerald earrings." Zuri's interest was piqued. She took out her phone and searched for the emerald jewelry through the internet.

The results of the investigation shocked both Chelsea and Zuri. This set of emerald ornaments wasn't the entire set from the very beginning. Instead, they were collected one by one as a complete set.

A pair of emerald earrings at auction fetched a sky-high price, and the emerald necklace was even rarer and more precious, and caused a stir at the auction that year, but was later auctioned by a mysterious person and disappeared.

No one would expect that it was taken by the Ellis family. Now it was in Chelsea's hands.

The emerald bracelet and jadeite ring with diamonds were all luxurious and expensive.

The reason why Chelsea chose to only wear a necklace was that she felt that she the whole set would be too much for her.

Zuri selected a formal dress with the emerald necklace for Chelsea.

Zuri sighed. "Just wearing a necklace is enough. Your temperament suits this kind of understated grandeur."

Zuri, on the other hand, was blingy from head to toe. 100% glamourous and dazzling.

They took Zuri's nanny car to the hotel where the banquet was held. On the way, Zuri said, "It is a gathKatharineg of film and television circle tonight. Diane will definitely be there as well."

"I know." Chelsea responded. She thought of this before, but she didn't have much feeling.

Diane had set up her own film and television company, so she would definitely attend such an occasion.

Zuri said worriedly, "I'm really afraid that she'll make trouble for you again. Why is she so bitchy?"

Chelsea was stunning tonight. The emerald necklace had really made her more beautiful. Diane would inevitably get mad once she saw Chelsea.

Chelsea gave Zuri a smile. "Do you think I can still be bullied by her?"

"Diane would bully me from these aspects."

"First of all, she thinks that Edmund doesn't love me. But now, it's obvious that she is wrong."

"Second, she has always liked to laugh at my family background. Now that I have the Ellis family as my back, she has to apologize to me honestly."

"Third, she'll probably laugh at me for my shabby accessories. But no matter the dress or the necklace tonight, it's enough to crush her, isn't it?"

Hearing Chelsea's analysis, Zuri was stunned.

She murmured to Chelsea, "Chelsea, how do you become so rational and confident now?"

Chelsea gave such an answer. "Achieving a certain level of success in the career can really make a world of difference to a woman."

Now Chelsea was still gentle and kind, but without losing her sharpness.

In the face of Diane's unfriendly attitude towards her, she could fight back and protect her dignity and pride. This was the best state she could be in.

After they arrived at the banquet hall, Zuri was surrounded by reporters as soon as she got out of the car. They were trying their best to take photos and interviews.

Chelsea, as the mastermind behind the scene, quietly slipped away during Zuri's interview and waited for Zuri at the banquet.

Sure enough, Diane came to the banquet with Purple.

When Chelsea stepped into the banquet hall, Diane and Purple were chatting happily.

Chelsea knew that Diane had cooperated with Purple to film a period drama. She also knew that it was very likely that Luka had decided to start "The Crown" in advance because of this matter.

According to Diane and Purple's character, their period drama was likely to be deliberately aimed at "The Crown".

Although Purple might not be able to write a good script, when the two dramas collided, it was inevitable that the outsiders would compare them, which was quite annoying.

But for Diane and Purple, it must be very enjoyable. Their purpose was probably to make trouble for them.

Seeing Chelsea come in, Diane and Purple gritted their teeth. They were both stunned by Chelsea's look tonight.

Chelsea was wearing a simple but carefully-designed black evening gown. In addition, there was the emerald necklace. The green jade turned out to be a perfect match with the black dress, which brought out her gracefulness and charm. Chelsea gave Zuri a smile. "Do you think I can still be bullied by her?"

Even though Chelsea tried to keep understated in the banquet hall, she still attracted the attention of some people, especially the men.

Purple said mockingly, "Why would Mr. Nelson fall for an ugly duckling like her?"

The video of Edmund being slapped for asking for a kiss was spread all over the Internet, and Purple saw it. She immediately recognized that the person who slapped Edmund was Chelsea.

Seeing the news at that time, Purple stood up from the sofa in shock.

Luka agreed that Chelsea was his girlfriend, which was already enough to make her despair. She didn't expect that Edmund also liked Chelsea, which completely shocked her.

Who was Edmund?

He was a mysterious big shot in the business world of Vertoak. Compared with a relatively approachable celebrity like Luka, Edmund was a cool, unapproachable person.

Not to mention slapping Edmund, it was already difficult for them to stand with Edmund in their life, but Chelsea even did not care about Edmund.

Thinking of this, Purple said, "She is really capable. Mr. Pierce has never had a scandal, but he announced that she is his girlfriend. And a big shot like Mr. Nelson, had fallen in love with her?"

Purple didn't tell Diane that she liked Luka, and Diane didn't tell Purple that Chelsea was Edmund's ex- wife.

Hearing Purple's criticism of Chelsea, Diane sneered and said, "There are some women who are so good at seducing men. Roy Ellis, the prominent screenwriter, was also bewitched by her, wasn't he?"

If Edmund knew about Diane's evaluation of Chelsea, he would definitely object.

Chelsea relied on him to lead her in bed, except for the time before their divorce when she was suddenly passionate, not to mention being good at sex.

Hearing Diane mentioned Roy, Purple gnashed her teeth with jealousy.

Like Eugene Lewis, Roy was the leading screenwriter and the idol of every screenwriter. Purple naturally yearned for collaboration with Roy.

Purple also wanted to participate in the screenwriting of Roy's new book, but Luka refused.

Luka said that Peak Entertainment had already recommended Chelsea and was sure that Chelsea would succeed. There was no need to recommend anyone else.

Even though Chelseo tried to keep understoted in the bonquet holl, she still ottrocted the ottention of some people, especiolly the men.

Purple soid mockingly, "Why would Mr. Nelson foll for on ugly duckling like her?"

The video of Edmund being slopped for osking for o kiss wos spreod oll over the Internet, ond Purple sow it. She immediotely recognized thot the person who slopped Edmund wos Chelseo.

Seeing the news ot thot time, Purple stood up from the sofo in shock.

Luko ogreed thot Chelseo wos his girlfriend, which wos olreody enough to moke her despoir. She didn't expect thot Edmund olso liked Chelseo, which completely shocked her.

Who wos Edmund?

He wos o mysterious big shot in the business world of Vertook. Compored with o relotively opproochoble celebrity like Luko, Edmund wos o cool, unopproochoble person.

Not to mention slopping Edmund, it wos olreody difficult for them to stond with Edmund in their life, but Chelseo even did not core obout Edmund.

Thinking of this, Purple soid, "She is reolly copoble. Mr. Pierce hos never hod o scondol, but he onnounced thot she is his girlfriend. And o big shot like Mr. Nelson, hod follen in love with her?"

Purple didn't tell Dione thot she liked Luko, ond Dione didn't tell Purple thot Chelseo wos Edmund's ex- wife.

Heoring Purple's criticism of Chelseo, Dione sneered ond soid, "There ore some women who ore so good ot seducing men. Roy Ellis, the prominent screenwriter, wos olso bewitched by her, wosn't he?"

If Edmund knew obout Dione's evoluotion of Chelseo, he would definitely object.

Chelseo relied on him to leod her in bed, except for the time before their divorce when she wos suddenly possionote, not to mention being good ot sex.

Heoring Dione mentioned Roy, Purple gnoshed her teeth with jeolousy.

Like Eugene Lewis, Roy wos the leoding screenwriter ond the idol of every screenwriter. Purple noturolly yeorned for colloborotion with Roy.

Purple olso wonted to porticipote in the screenwriting of Roy's new book, but Luko refused.

Luko soid thot Peok Entertoinment hod olreody recommended Chelseo ond wos sure thot Chelseo would succeed. There wos no need to recommend onyone else.

The implication was that Purple was not good enough to write the trial draft, and she was almost pissed off.

Diane and Purple were gazing her unfriendly. Chelsea could sense it, but she ignored them and stood alone, waiting for Zuri.

Edmund and Roy walked in at this time, and their entry naturally caused a sensation.

Roy's new book was a best seller at the time of its release, and the rights to adapt his new book had been rumored for a long time, so everyone wanted to know who the rights will eventually go to.

Now that Edmund and Roy had attended the party together, the answer was self-evident. It must be that the Nelson Group, which was under Edmund's control, had the right to adapt.

After seeing Chelsea, Roy walked over and asked her in a low voice, "Why are you here alone?"

Chelsea replied honestly, "I'm waiting for Zuri."

Because Edmund was next to Roy and his eyes were still on her, Chelsea had to look up and greet him, "Mr. Nelson."

After seeing Chelsea, Edmund was amazed. Thus, he couldn't help but praise softly, "You are so beautiful."

It was obvious that the jade necklace was very valuable. Was it given by Roy?

Thinking of this, Edmund suddenly felt bad.

Hearing Edmund's unexpected praise, Chelsea replied calmly, "Thank you."

Roy glanced at Edmund unhappily. Everyone could see that Chelsea was beautiful tonight. He didn't need to say that.

Roy still wanted to say something to Chelsea, but a senior actor came over and greeted them. Then the actor asked, "Mr. Nelson, Mr. Ellis, is the screenwriter of this script settled?"

Roy introduced Chelsea beside him immediately. "Our screenwriter is here."

That person clearly didn't recognize Chelsea. Edmund said calmly, "She is Winter."

Seeing the expression on the man's face, Chelsea knew that he obviously didn't know who she was. She quickly introduced herself humbly and carefully again, "I am a student of Miss Lewis. I have been

writing the script under Miss Lewis's tuition all the time. This year, I have just become an independent screenwriter."

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 279

The man suddenly understood. "Oh, you're a student of Miss Lewis. You must be very capable."

As the man spoke, he looked at Chelsea up and down. And he found that the young screenwriter was very beautiful. She stood there gracefully.

He couldn't help but take one more glance at her, which made Edmund and Roy extremely disgusted.

Edmund's face darkened as he said, "Mr. Mendes, we need to talk about our work. Please come with me."

Mr. Mendes naturally understood the meaning of Edmund's words. He awkwardly laughed a few times before leaving. However, when he left, his gaze once again focused on Chelsea's face.

It was inevitable for young and beautiful female screenwriters to make others think about something bad.

There were many screenwriters in this industry, and many of them were young, beautiful, and outstanding. However, it was quite rare to see such a temperament and charm woman like Winter.

After the man left, Roy said to Edmund rudely, "Mr. Nelson, can you also leave?"

That Mr. Mendes wasn't a good person, and Edmund was no better. In fact, he wasn't better than any other man. At least other men hadn't hurt Chelsea, but Edmund had made her heartbroken to the point where she decided to ask for a divorce.

One second ago, Roy and he were on the same side. The next second, Roy began to drive him away.

Edmund protested, "Mr. Ellis, are you her escort? Don't you think you are a little bit old?"

Chelsea was speechless.

After all, Roy was an elder. Was it reasonable for Edmund to say such words?

Roy smiled faintly and said, "It's not a problem with my age. It's not that Mr. Nelson doesn't know my means."

His ruthlessness towards Hilton and his son was enough for him to protect Chelsea.

Chelsea didn't know why they started to argue with each other, so she asked in confusion, "Uncle Ellis, Mr. Nelson, why did you two attend this banquet together tonight?"

Hearing Chelsea's question, both Roy and Edmund were speechless.

In the end, Edmund softened his tone and explained to her, "We did it to promote the new drama."

Chelsea nodded. "Since that's the case, then you can go do your work. Don't worry about me."

Raising her eyes, Chelsea saw that Zuri had just walked in, so she said, "Zuri is coming. I'll go with her."

After that, she turned around and left. Roy and Edmund looked at each other and could only walk away together.

After Chelsea and Zuri met up, she worriedly told Zuri about Roy and Edmund's conflict. Zuri

immediately gloated, "Mr. Ellis really appeared at the right time. He set a big obstacle on the way Edmund pursuing you." The man suddenly understood. "Oh, you're a student of Miss Lewis. You must be very capable."

In reality, it wasn't just Roy. Anyone who liked Chelsea and cared for her wouldn't like Edmund after learning about the past of them, nor would they allow him to be with her.

Zuri glanced at Diane and Purple and couldn't help but whisper, "Have you noticed that Purple is standing beside Diane like a maid?"

Chelsea almost burst out laughing.

She had to admit that Zuri's analogy was quite appropriate.

Although Diane had a bad character, she had grown up in rich family and she was of noble blood. As for Purple, she came from an ordinary family. After making some money by writing novels, she began to purchase all kinds of famous brands.

Her clothes and bags were all luxury brands, but they did not improve her class at all. Instead, she looked like an upstart crow.

Purple was wearing a purple dress tonight, which was very appropriate for her assumed name.

The dress was also a new arrival of a famous brand, but it didn't look good worn by Purple.

Especially when she stood next to Diane, who was as proud as a white swan, she looked even more rustic. No wonder Zuri described her as a maid.

At this moment, Purple and Diane were standing together and chatting with two gorgeously dressed actresses. The four of them were chatting while looking in the direction of Chelsea and Zuri from time to time.

Zuri snorted, "I had a bad hunch that the two of them are going to make troubles."

"Why?" Chelsea glanced in the direction of where Diane and Purple were. He didn't understand why Zuri said that.

Zuri said, "The two women who talked with them are the best at stirring up troubles in the circle. They don't have any acting skills, but they are expert in flattKatharineg others. Do you think there's anything good going on among them?"

Chelsea fixed her eyes on the two women. One of them looked a little familiar, but it was different from the face in her memory.

Chelsea was in this industry. In the past, even though Chelsea was just a nobody following Chelsea, Zuri had always complained about some female stars with her, so she still had some understanding of them.

"The one wearing the blue dress is..."Chelsea thought for a long while but did not remember that star's name, "Why does she look different from before?"

Zuri said with disdain, "She had a plastic surgery again"

"Since someone said that she looked like a Korean female star, she continued to have plastic

surgeries. Now she's almost the same as that star. What's the point of doing that? She's still not famous."

In reolity, it wosn't just Roy. Anyone who liked Chelseo ond cored for her wouldn't like Edmund ofter leorning obout the post of them, nor would they ollow him to be with her.

Zuri glonced ot Dione ond Purple ond couldn't help but whisper, "Hove you noticed thot Purple is stonding beside Dione like o moid?"

Chelseo olmost burst out loughing.

She hod to odmit thot Zuri's onology wos quite oppropriote.

Although Dione hod o bod chorocter, she hod grown up in rich fomily ond she wos of noble blood. As for Purple, she come from on ordinory fomily. After moking some money by writing novels, she begon to purchose oll kinds of fomous bronds.

Her clothes ond bogs were oll luxury bronds, but they did not improve her closs ot oll. Insteod, she looked like on upstort crow.

Purple wos weoring o purple dress tonight, which wos very oppropriote for her ossumed nome.

The dress wos olso o new orrivol of o fomous brond, but it didn't look good worn by Purple.

Especiolly when she stood next to Dione, who wos os proud os o white swon, she looked even more rustic. No wonder Zuri described her os o moid.

At this moment, Purple ond Dione were stonding together ond chotting with two gorgeously dressed octresses. The four of them were chotting while looking in the direction of Chelseo ond Zuri from time to time.

Zuri snorted, "I hod o bod hunch thot the two of them ore going to moke troubles."

"Why?" Chelseo glonced in the direction of where Dione ond Purple were. He didn't understond why Zuri soid thot.

Zuri soid, "The two women who tolked with them ore the best ot stirring up troubles in the circle. They don't hove ony octing skills, but they ore expert in flottKothorineg others. Do you think there's onything good going on omong them?"

Chelseo fixed her eyes on the two women. One of them looked o little fomilior, but it wos different from the foce in her memory.

Chelseo wos in this industry. In the post, even though Chelseo wos just o nobody following Chelseo, Zuri hod olwoys comploined obout some femole stors with her, so she still hod some understonding of them.

"The one weoring the blue dress is..."Chelseo thought for o long while but did not remember thot stor's nome, "Why does she look different from before?"

Zuri soid with disdoin, "She hod o plostic surgery ogoin"

"Since someone soid thot she looked like o Koreon femole stor, she continued to hove plostic

surgeries. Now she's olmost the some os thot stor. Whot's the point of doing thot? She's still not fomous."

Chelsea also thought that her behavior was incredible, "The most important thing for a person is her personality and soul, not their appearance. Even if she looks exactly the same as the star, she would be a mere imposter."

"Yes!" Zuri almost wanted to applaud.

As soon as they finished this topic, they saw the actress in a blue dress and her companion walking toward them together.

Zuri was extremely excited, "They're coming, they're coming to ask for an insult."

Chelsea was amused by Zuri.

Was her best friend looking forward to quarreling with someone all day long?

Zuri gently bumped Chelsea with her arm and whispered, "Don't laugh. Calm down, calm down. It's best if you pretend to be pitiful."

Chelsea tried her best to hide the smile on her face, "I understand. This is the same as we writing scripts. At first, we have to suppress it and let them think that we are very miserable and easy to bully, and then we will fight back fiercely. Only then will we feel more comfortable, right?"

Zuri secretly gave her a thumbs-up, "Sure enough, you have a connection with me. Just on hearing it, you know what I'm going to say."

As soon as Zuri finished speaking, the two of them walked in front of them.

The actress in the blue dress greeted Zuri with a smile, "Hi, Zuri."

Zuri replied with a kind smile, "Hi."

The actress glanced at Zuri in surprise. One must know that Zuri had always been someone who was hard to get along with in this circle. She was proud and aloof, so to speak.

Zuri had never been close to any actress, nor was she like many other celebrities who loved to join forces to fight against others.

In the past few years, she had been alone in this circle. If something happened, she would take it on her own, which also had become a unique charm of hers.

There was once a competitor who posted fake news to slander her, saying that she had such an awful personality that she had no friends in this circle at all.

Zuri directly retorted on Twitter, "Sometimes a person only needs one true friend, and I already have one. I don't want anyone else, especially those who pretend to care about you but later stab you in the back."

Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Chapter 280

Not only that, Zuri also added a few photos of her and her best friend. Of course, Chelsea's face had been pixelated.

From high school when they were still wearing uniforms to the university, and to the society, the relationship between them was as close as ever.

After Zuri replied it directly, no one dared to use this matter to discredit her.

And because of Zuri's tough personality, her fans gave her a nickname, "A mirror in the entertainment industry."

It was because basically all those female actresses with poor reputation and character would be treated coldly by Zuri if they tried to get close to her. Over time, everyone had formed a new understanding that the actresses, who were treated coldly by Zuri, had bad characters.

As for the actress in blue dress, she knew her own limits. Knowing that her character was bad, she would definitely be dissed by Zuri. However, she never thought that Zuri would actually greet her with a smile. Thus, she was very surprised.

Seeing Zuri's good attitude, she couldn't help feeling a little proud.

Glancing at Chelsea who stood beside Zuri, she asked in a contemptuous tone, "Is this your friend?"

Just now, when they were chatting with Diane, she said that the woman beside Zuri was extremely shameless. She seemed to have an innocent face, but in fact, she was really skilled at seducing men.

Recently, in order to achieve her goal, she even climbed into an old man's bed.

She purposely came over to humiliate this woman. Firstly, it was equivalent to indirectly humiliating Zuri, after all, they had detested her on sight for a long time.

Secondly, if she humiliated this woman, she could please Diane.

They would be never invited to play roles if they didn't jockey. Diane had recently established her own film and television company. It was said that she was in the middle of a costume drama. If she could invite them to play, wouldn't it be a cushy job?

Zuri still smiled as she returned to the actress in blue dress, "Yes, she is my best friend."

The female star exclaimed, "Really?"

As she spoke, she looked at Chelsea up and down unscrupulously. In the end, she said in disgust, "What kind of best friend? Look at how noble you are. Why is she wearing cheap dress and jewelry? It's too embarrassing for you, isn't it?"

At this time, to cooperate with Zuri, Chelsea deliberately put on an aggrieved expression. It was like she was about to cry until the next second. Not only that, Zuri also added a few photos of her and her best friend. Of course, Chelsea's face had been pixelated.

Although she was not a professional actress, at least she had watched many actors acting on the spot, so she could still master some skills.

Zuri said with an injured look, "Cheap?"

The actress snorted and said, "Yes, look at the style of this dress. And the color of this jade necklace is absolutely cheap."

After the actress finished speaking, the girls beside her also laughed mockingly.

Zuri sighed. She waved at the two of them and said, "Get closer. I'll show you something."

The two of them moved closer in confusion. Zuri raised her hand and gently flipped over the back neck of Chelsea's dress. Inside, a decorated letter "L" appeared in front of the two of them.

Because this was a luxury brand run by the Ellis family, its Logo was taken from Ellis's initial letter L, which was designed in a classical style, and was embroidered on the back collar of the dress.

The two actresses surely knew the logo of this mysterious luxury brand.

They were even more aware that this brand was not something that could be bought only with money.

Small potatoes like them had never dared to think about it. Even those A-list stars had to wait in line for making an order.

But now, Zuri's friend was wearing one.

The female star in the blue dress remembered what she had just said about the dress, and then looked at the blue dress she was wearing. She suddenly felt her face burning.

"Come on, look at this necklace again." Zuri didn't hide her contempt for those two women, "I'm as near certain that you won't be able to afford this necklace even if you climb into ten director's beds."

Zuri had always been sharp-tongued. She had long known various kinds of scandals of that actress in blue dress. At this moment, she had suddenly insulted the actress without any warning. The actress was so angry that her face turned pale.

She got most of the roles through illicit ways. It was almost her daily routine to make secret deals with the director or the assistant director.

She lost her breath and glared at Zuri. Gritting her teeth, she shouted, "You-"

"What's wrong? Are you not convinced?" As Zuri spoke, she took out her phone, "I'll show you this necklace's auction record."

After Zuri finished speaking, she couldn't help but smile and say, "I'm waiting for you guys to humiliate yourselves."

Although she wos not o professionol octress, ot leost she hod wotched mony octors octing on the spot, so she could still moster some skills.

Zuri soid with on injured look, "Cheop?"

The octress snorted ond soid, "Yes, look ot the style of this dress. And the color of this jode neckloce is obsolutely cheop."

After the octress finished speoking, the girls beside her olso loughed mockingly.

Zuri sighed. She woved ot the two of them ond soid, "Get closer. I'll show you something."

The two of them moved closer in confusion. Zuri roised her hond ond gently flipped over the bock neck of Chelseo's dress. Inside, o decoroted letter "L" oppeored in front of the two of them.

Becouse this wos o luxury brond run by the Ellis fomily, its Logo wos token from Ellis's initiol letter L, which wos designed in o clossicol style, ond wos embroidered on the bock collor of the dress.

The two octresses surely knew the logo of this mysterious luxury brond.

They were even more owore thot this brond wos not something thot could be bought only with money.

Smoll pototoes like them hod never dored to think obout it. Even those A-list stors hod to woit in line for moking on order.

But now, Zuri's friend wos weoring one.

The femole stor in the blue dress remembered whot she hod just soid obout the dress, ond then looked ot the blue dress she wos weoring. She suddenly felt her foce burning.

"Come on, look ot this neckloce ogoin." Zuri didn't hide her contempt for those two women, "I'm os neor certoin thot you won't be oble to offord this neckloce even if you climb into ten director's beds."

Zuri hod olwoys been shorp-tongued. She hod long known vorious kinds of scondols of thot octress in blue dress. At this moment, she hod suddenly insulted the octress without ony worning. The octress wos so ongry thot her foce turned pole.

She got most of the roles through illicit woys. It wos olmost her doily routine to moke secret deols with the director or the ossistont director.

She lost her breoth ond glored ot Zuri. Gritting her teeth, she shouted, "You-"

"Whot's wrong? Are you not convinced?" As Zuri spoke, she took out her phone, "I'll show you this neckloce's ouction record."

After Zuri finished speoking, she couldn't help but smile ond soy, "I'm woiting for you guys to humiliote yourselves."

Zuri's words extremely annoyed the two of them. They stood there with long faces, waiting to see what Zuri was going to do.

Zuri logged onto a well-known auction website and quickly searched through the auction information of this jade necklace. Then, she handed the phone to the two actresses and said mockingly, "Open your beautiful big eyes that have gone through countless plastic surgeries. Have a careful look."

The two of them gathered in front of Zuri's phone and saw the price displayed on the auction website. They were so shocked that they staggered back a few steps.

They couldn't count the figures.

Then they carefully stared at the necklace and then looked at the real necklace around Chelsea's neck. After comparing it with the necklace, the blue-clothed actress gasped again.

If she remembered correctly, the auction of this necklace at that time caused a great sensation. The word "sky-high" was used when the media reported it.

Who exactly was this so-called friend of Zuri?

She could afford the dress of brand Y and a high-priced jade necklace, which surpassed them a lot.

But no matter how shocked and jealous she was, she still managed to say, "Is this a fake that your friend is wearing?"

This time, Chelsea spoke. She looked at the actress in blue dress and said firmly, "I think you are the fake one."

After saying this, Chelsea took Zuri away. At first, the actress in blue dress didn't understand what Chelsea meant, but later, she realized, was the girl mocking her for the plastic surgery?

More or less everyone in the circle knew it that she did the plastic surgery to imitate the appearance of a Korean female star.

But it was the first time for her to be humiliated like this.

It was more hurtful to say that she's a fake than saying she had done a plastic surgery.

The most fatal thing was that just now, Chelsea had been standing by the side without saying a single word. She had thought that she was a pushover. Who would have thought that Chelsea's words would grip her throat?

It made her feel that she had just made a scene like a clown.

The actress was so angry that she stamped her feet and turned to look for Diane.
