Chapter 41 Strange Protective Urge

"Chelsea!" Diane crackled with ferocious energy.

With her fist raised in the air, she was about to run after Chelsea and beat her to a pulp.

However, Edmund grabbed her wrist again and pulled her back.He only let go of her after the door was shut.

The force in which Diane had been pulled back was so strong that she almost lost her balance.

She staggered until she grabbed the desk beside her.

"Are you happy now?"

Edmund inquired with anger in his tone.

"What are you insinuating, Edmund? Are you trying to say that I made trouble for no reason?"

Diane burst into tears.

When she saw that Edmund was unmoved by her pitiful act, she shouted, "Did you expect me to just turn a blind eye when I saw her arrive here in the middle of the night? Chelsea is a sneaky bitch.And I don't want her around you.I'm dead sure that you would have taken off her clothes if Ihad come in a second late.How could you insinuate that I took things too far? Am I a joke to you, Edmund?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Would they have had sex if she didn't show up in time? Diane was perturbed.Although Edmund felt that she was being unreasonable, he decided to explain things to her.

"Calm down, Diane.It's not what you think.I accidentally spilled coffee on her and handed her some pieces of tissue to clean up the mess."

Hearing this explanation, Diane wiped her tears and said, "You spilled coffee on her? I have reason to believe that it wasn't an accident at all.Chelsea must have done it on purpose.She definitely knocked the coffee over so she can take off her clothes in your presence.Can't you see? It was her plan to seduce you!"

These words kicked up Edmund's gag reflex.He was irritated that Diane could make such an assumption when she wasn't there while the accident happened.

How could he not know if it was Chelsea's plan? Chelsea had just turned on her laptop when he brought her a cup of coffee.The wallpaper on her laptop was her picture.

She was smiling so brightly that Edmund couldn't help staring in awe.

Throughout their marriage, he had never seen her smile like that.He wouldn't have believed it if someone told him that her smile was that beautiful.

She looked genuinely happy in that picture.His gaze had been so fixed on her smile that he unintentionally tilted it, so the coffee spilled on her.

Chelsea hadn't touched the cup at all.

Diane's cry and far-fetched assumption were getting on Edmund's nerves.

His patience was running thin.

Holding back his anger, he grabbed his car key and said, "Get a grip on yourself.I'll take you back home now."

After saying that, he walked out of the office.

Diane was so angry that she cried out.She didn't need anyone to tell her that he was tired of her tantrum since he offered to drive her home.

For many years, she had maintained the image of a good and unproblematic woman in Edmund's presence.

But that night, she had lost her cool because of Chelsea.Her resentment for Chelsea doubled as a result.

However, she was not that stupid to risk big things for the sake of small ones.She became calm on the way home.

Instead of getting off the car when they arrived, she held Edmund's hand and said pitifully, "Baby, I'm sorry.I was wrong to have reacted that way.Please don't be mad at me."

Edmund's heart was unmoved.He didn't even turn to look at her.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмDiane shook his hand and continued, "I was so stupid to have let my emotions becloud my reasoning.I should have trusted you.You aren't like other men who have flings.

Although you and Chelsea were once married, you don't have feelings for her.I now understand that you just have a working relationship with her.Forgive me.Please..."

Diane admitted her mistake.

However, Edmund was irritated by her.He yanked his hand from her grip, still not looking at her.His head was filled with a plethora of thoughts.He had divorced Chelsea, but why did he behave irrationally again and again because of her? In recent times, he had protected and defended her at every chance he got.He pitched himself against Diane and Sonya just because of her.

There was an indescribable force that always pushed him to step in whenever Chelsea was in danger.He always wanted to be there for her both physically and mentally.It seemed like he could go to any lengths just for her.
