Instead of walking into the house, Edmund turned to Leo and said, "You may leave now, Leo."
"Okay, boss. Call me if you need anything." Leo handed him the suitcase. He bowed and left hurriedly.
In this way, Chelsea and Edmund were left alone in the hallway. The silence between them was
deafening. The air seemed to heat up in a split second.
Chelsea, who was still lowering her head, could feel her ex-husband's gaze on her. She couldn't take it
anymore. After bracing herself, she looked up at him and said calmly, "I've got the photo albums. Thank
you for keeping them safe. I need to leave now. Bye!"
Chelsea lowered her head and walked towards the door, intending to bypass Edmund. He suddenly
opened his legs, blocking her way even more.
With her eyebrows knitted in confusion, Chelsea looked up at him. His face was expressionless. He
didn't utter a word. However, he put his suitcase on the cabinet and slowly approached her.
It was bad enough for Chelsea that they were within the same airspace. She didn't want him to get
closer than this, so she stepped back.
Hugging the photo albums to her chest, she continued to move backward. She suddenly tripped on the
wide shoe-changing stool.
Edmund moved to her immediately and bent over. His tall figure completely obstructed hers.
Chelsea's heart thumped against her chest loudly. Being so close to him now had a special kind of
effect on her. However, she wasn't going to indulge that feeling anymore.
All the years she spent loving him brought her nothing but pain. When she remembered how he treated
her like shit, she regained her senses immediately.
Not minding the deep frown on her face, Edmund caressed her cheek and said with a smile, "Chelsea,
it's time to end this cat and mouse game."
"Cat and mouse game? What do you mean?" Chelsea queried, confusion evident on her face.
Smiling more brightly, Edmund rubbed her soft lips with his thumb and whispered, "I meant that you
have made me play a cat and mouse game with you since you returned. It's time you put an end to it.
Why? Because you won. I want you back, my ex-wife."
This statement was like a bolt out of the blue. His sudden tenderness towards her stunned Chelsea,
but it seemed like a basin of cold water was poured on her a second after she heard his confession.
Anger steamed off Chelsea like ultraviolet rays. Her fingers that were holding the albums scratched the
hard rubbery jackets.
Since her return, she had been trying to make it clear to him that she wanted nothing to do with him.
But Edmund felt that she was only playing hard to get.
It turned out that he still saw her as a sly woman who masked up her true intentions in front of him.
Chelsea was livid. What made him confident enough to think that she would be willing to come back to
him after all that he did to her? What an arrogant man!
Painful nostalgia swept through Chelsea at this time. Tears welled up in her eyes due to anger and the
thoughts of her past suffering. She didn't want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her cry as always,
so she fought back the tears.
Boiling with rage, she sneered at him. "Do you really think that I am playing hard to get?"
"Uh-huh! Isn't that what all your recent actions are about? Besides, Zuri's agent just issued a statement
to deny the recent allegation. She said that the two of you are in love with different men," Edmund
replied with certainty.
Chelsea was stunned to hear that last sentence. She took out her phone from her bag.
She checked the most popular blog site for the hottest celebrity news.
It was about her and Zuri. Sunny had issued a statement saying that they had been good friends right
from high school, not lesbian partners. She added that they respectively had men occupying their
hearts. It was also stated that Zuri wasn't happy about the rumor. And that she was going to take legal
action against anyone who continued to propagate such false narratives about her.
It was after reading the full statement that Chelsea finally realized where Edmund got his confidence
from.
She hadn't bothered to tell Sunny what to say about her in the statement because she trusted Sunny
and didn't think people were that concerned about her since she wasn't that popular.
Much to her surprise, Sunny's words made Edmund think that she still had feelings for him.
Chelsea rolled her eyes and put away her phone. She then looked at the proud man in front of her and
asked mockingly, "So, you think that you are the man in my heart?"
