Chapter 69 It Won’t Be You
The mockery in Chelsea's eyes made Edmund frown in frustration. "Isn't it?"
Chelsea denied without hesitation, "Of course not!" This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
He hadn't expected her to be so convicted in refusing him. Her bluntness made him lose his ground for a moment.
She looked into his eyes with indifference. "There are so many outstanding men who are willing to be with me now. So why should I torture myself to love an ex-husband who never cared about me but hurt me a lot?"
Edmund's face darkened at the bitterness in her voice. And he was almost too embarrassed to face her.
He had always been proud and conceited in everything he did. He had even suspected that Chelsea still had feelings for him. Reading Sunny's statement only made him even more confident.
So foolishly he left the hospital regardless of the doctor's objection and rushed home to meet her expecting to be welcomed with open arms.
But now, Chelsea looked at him as if he was poisonous and thought of him as just her ex-husband nothing more.
It was then that Edmund remembered that she had told him, she would never look back. He was so angry that he couldn't help himself.
He lifted her chin and kissed her hard. When she tried to struggle he pressed her against the wall and continued.
This kiss was a punishment. As if he wanted to brand her and remind her that she was only his. Chelsea's lips hurt from it and the harder she struggled the more intense it was.
She had made it clear that she wanted nothing to do with Edmund, so him kissing her now was a great humiliation. He never respected her and it showed clearly.
She didn't know where she got the strength to push away the man who wanted to possess her. But as she did, hot tears fell down her cheeks.
Edmund who still felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, stumbled a few steps back when she pushed him unexpectedly, and his back hit the corner of the table next to him. The pain was enough to make him sweat.
He stood there with his hand on his waist and a dark look on his face as if he was going to strangle Chelsea.
Regardless of his terrifying expression, Chelsea wiped her tears and stood up with her photo albums in her hands.
"Edmund, no matter whom I choose to be with in the future, it will never be you."
After saying that, she ran out crying with the albums still in her arms.
Edmund stood there for a while looking dazed.
He had read the outline of the script she had written. He knew that she excelled at writing, but he hadn't expected that her words were also so sharp.
No matter whom she chose to be with, it wouldn't be him anymore.
Chelsea was really ruthless saying those hurtful words.
Edmund finally confirmed that she really didn't care about him at all. She wasn't playing hard to get with him. What she really wanted was to draw a clear line between them. One that could never be crossed.
The former was just his arrogant and self-righteous speculation.

Chelsea quickly took a taxi back to her apartment. And even though she didn't want to, she still cried all the way.
She hadn't even cried so much even when she decided to divorce Edmund. Not even after they got divorced.
When she remembered that Edmund said she still loved him and was just playing hard to get, Chelsea was furious.
He probably didn't know that Diane was the one who faked her pregnancy and forced her to divorce him.
He also didn't know that it was Diane who was behind the rumor about her and Zuri this morning.
Damn it!
Chelsea wanted to curse out for the first time in more than 20 years.
When she got home, Chelsea washed her face and sat in front of the computer, and tried to concentrate on writing. Her mind was determined to fight against the hold Edmund had on her.
She wanted to turn all her grief and pain into power. She would walk through thorns and become a famous scriptwriter. That way she could trample on Edmund's pride and arrogance.
