Chapter 198
Edmund had thought his mother was at fault for spoiling Sonya.
But after seeing what she had done today, he understood she wasn't just spoiled. Instead, she had no morals and could stoop very low.
If he hadn't noticed that Chelsea was gone missing and notified the police quickly, he couldn't imagine what would have happened to her. Most importantly, he wouldn't be able to face Chelsea again.
Because of his sister, Chelsea's whole life could be ruined.
Hearing these words from her brother, Sonya's eyes were moist with tears. As she wept, she asked Edmund, "Why do you always protect Chelsea? Are you in love with her?"
Sonya's intention was to provoke her brother. She was expecting him to deny this.
But she had been wrong in doing so. Edmund looked straight into her eyes and admitted frankly, "You are right. I have fallen for her."
There was a dead silence in the warehouse.
None of them had expected to hear such explosive news. Nobody knew how to react.
The kidnappers had no idea they had kidnapped Edmund's ex-wife.
And surprisingly enough, he admitted in public that he still loved her.
The two kidnappers were scared to death of what would become of them.
After a while, there was a great bellow of laughter to interrupt the silence.
It was tinged with both mockery and sadness. It came from Chelsea.
Everyone looked in her direction. Still laughing, tears began to stream down her eyes.
The very next second, she shook off Edmund's coat, not caring about her exposed body.
She walked straight to Edmund. As everyone watched the scene in horrified silence, she mocked Edmund, "Edmund, please stay away from me. I want nothing to do with you and your family."
After spitting out those words, she turned to those two men and Sonya. She gave them a tight slap.
With everyone's gaze still on her, she walked out of the warehouse.
As soon as Chelsea was away from them, she let out her repressed emotions. She cried her heart out, her body trembling.
She couldn't imagine what would happen to her if the police didn't arrive in time.
She would have died of shame and disgust.
After everything that had happened, how could Edmund confess his love?!
——————
In the warehouse, Edmund glanced in the direction Chelsea had gone through. Taking a look at the police, he said, "Take them to the police station as soon as possible."
Before leaving, he added, "No one is allowed to bail Sonya out. Neither my parents nor anyone else with power." He gave Sonya a hostile glare.
"Edmund!" Sonya cried out in despair, but Edmund had already left, chasing after Chelsea.
He finally caught up with her and saw she was weeping her heart out.
Stepping forward, he held her tightly in his embrace.
"I'm sorry. I am the one to be blamed for everything. I didn't treat you right," he said earnestly.
Chelsea struggled to free herself from his hold. "Let go of me!" she demanded.
Edmund held her even tighter and said firmly, "No! I won't!"
He was afraid that if he let her go this time, she would really be gone forever.
Chelsea cried and struggled, but in vain. Edmund had no intention of letting her go.
At last, Chelsea's annoyance reached its peak. "Edmund, I hate you!" she spat out.
