Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 104 She Must Go

"What? No way! I don't want to." Sonya was anxious and assertive on her stance.

She despised the thought of leaving the country. She was never any good in studies and she had already given up on them. After going abroad, she would be forced to meet all kinds of foreigners and would have to learn their languages.

But the real reason she didn't want to go was that she was afraid she couldn't adapt to the environment. In Vertoak, with Edmund and the Nelson Group there, she could get whatever whenever she wanted.

Moreover, she was not only a famous actress in the country, and was also from a rich family. She liked being the center of attention and that was something she didn't want to lose. If she went abroad, no one would know who she was.

Edmund said seriously, "Sonya, you are not young anymore. You need to work out a plan for your future now."

"It doesn't matter! I don't want to go abroad. I won't!" Sonya shouted like a mad woman. She didn't mind throwing a tantrum if it meant getting what she wanted.

Edmund was even more frustrated as his head throbbed. He stared at her and said in an stern tone, "If you don't go abroad, will you live just idly in Vertoak all your life? Do you want to keep causing problems all your life? Is that it?"

As Edmund said that, Sonya shrank with guilt, looking pitiful and aggrieved.

The next second, she burst into tears and pointed at him. "Edmund, are you still my brother? I already told you that I don't want to go. Why are you forcing me?"

Sonya's appetite was long gone. She grabbed her bag and stood up furiously. "I'm going back to tell mom that you keep picking on me."

After saying that, she ran away from him while wiping her tears. Edmund's face had turned dark with anger.

Sonya cried and screamed whenever she didn't get what she wanted. He seriously doubted that any man would want to marry her in the future.

Not long after Sonya left, Edmund received a call from Alena, just as he had expected.

Their mother was even more hysterical than Sonya.

Sure enough, when he answered the phone, Alena was already choking in sobs as she asked, "Edmund, why on earth do you want to send Sonya away? Don't you know that she is my little girl?"

"Mom, calm down." Edmund felt a headache creeping closer with every sniffle he heard.

"You are so busy that you rarely come back home. Only Sonya stays with me every day. If you send her abroad, the loneliness will kill me," Alena cried bitterly. He couldn't even tell if she was pretending or not.

Edmund said coldly, "My father is also staying abroad. This is a good chance to send Sonya there and let him take care of her."

His father Jaime Nelson didn't get along with Alena a few years ago, so he kept a mistress outside, which led to him and Alena separating.

The two never divorced. But since then, Jaime had been living abroad.

If Sonya was to leave the country, Edmund would obviously send her to Jaime. Sonya was good at doing nothing. With Jaime looking after her, she wouldn't cause any trouble there.

However, Alena was clearly pissed off by his words. "Do you actually think your father will take care of her? Will he have any time for her while he is entertaining those bitches." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Mom, watch your words." Edmund tried to persuade Alena not to be so stubborn but she wasn't budging.

"I don't care. Sonya can't and won't go abroad! Not on my watch," Alena shouted.

Of course, Edmund wouldn't compromise either. He said slowly while gritting his teeth, "Mom, Sonya will go there."

If she stayed, he couldn't even imagine what trouble she would cause for Chelsea. He would do anything to stop that.

"You..." Alena was so angry that she couldn't find anything to say for a while.

"I'm hanging up now. I have something else I need to take care of." Edmund ended the call immediately, not giving Alena any chance to speak again.
