Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 207

Chapter 207

After Edmund changed his clothes, Chris pointed at his bandaged forehead and asked, "Tell me, what happened to you?"

"Well, my mother smashed a teacup on my forehead," Edmund responded, lowering his head.

Chris sighed. "Sorry about that. Come, let me change the dressing."

The bandage that the butler wrapped on Edmund's forehead was already loose after he fought with Luka.

Edmund impatiently unwrapped the bandage.

Chris cleaned the wound with a ball of cotton wool dabbed in methylated spirit. Afterward, he applied iodine and wrapped Edmund's forehead with fresh gauze.

"The wound has to be dry so it can heal faster. Make sure it doesn't get wet. And stay away from alcohol and cigarettes so it doesn't get inflamed," Chris warned.

Edmund nodded obediently and said, "Please find me a good psychologist."

Chris knew exactly why Edmund made that request, so he said, "I have just contacted one. Once Chelsea recovers from the fever, the psychologist will attend to her."

"Is it a man or a woman?" Edmund asked, raising his eyebrows.

He didn't want more men around Chelsea. Thus, he was going to turn down the help if it was a male

psychologist.

Chris smiled and replied, "Not to worry. This one is a woman. She's the most sought-after female doctor in the psychology department of our hospital."

Yusuf, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly chipped in, "A female psychologist? Tell me about her. How old is she? Is she beautiful? Does she have a curvy figure?"

Chris tut-tutted disappointedly.

"Well, she's thirty years old. She graduated with honors from the medical school of Harvard University. She's very beautiful."

When Chris saw that his friend's face lit up, he added, "Just so you know, she has a bad character. So, you had better not flirt with her."

"What do you mean?" Yusuf asked curiously.

"Love is child's play in her eyes. She hates commitment," Chris responded with a snort.

Yusuf clapped excitedly. "Woo-hoo! She's my type of woman. We are like minds. Please introduce me to her quickly!"

Chris was rendered speechless.

After Yusuf didn't get any response, he rubbed his chin and asked thoughtfully, "By the way, how do

you know that she sees love as child's play? Don't tell me she dumped you in the past?"

"Of course, not!" Chris yelled and gritted his teeth.

Yusuf squinted at him and continued, "Come on, man. I'm your friend. Was it a one-night stand?"

Chris kept mute as he stared daggers at his provocative friend.

What kind of friend was he? Why did Yusuf poke his sore spot? So annoying!

Yusuf threw his head back and burst into laughter. "So, it's true! She dumped you!"

Chris murdered Yusuf with his eyes. He badly wanted to punch him in the face.

Ignoring the murderous stare, Yusuf tapped his chin and speculated. "Let me think. You also graduated from the medical school of Harvard University, didn't you? Did you know this female psychologist back then?"

Chris took a deep breath and responded dejectedly, "Yes, I knew her. We had sex a few times."

An intense pain tugged at his heartstrings at this moment. "At that time, I thought we had something good going on. But after we graduated, she just disappeared. I tried all I could to contact and find her, but I heard nothing from her for two whole years! She suddenly popped up again when the hospital recruited some new doctors a few days ago. When I asked her where she had been for the past two years, she said she was busy traveling around the world."

Chris let out a grunt. He cursed, "What a wicked woman! She just disappeared without saying a word. I was worried sick about her while she was living her best life."

"Wonderful!" Yusuf commented as he clapped his hands.

Chris exploded and took a swipe at Yusuf, who dodged it quickly. "Chill, dude! The way I see it, she never wanted to have a serious relationship with you. You were just her fuck buddy. But you misunderstood her by expecting something more."

Chris' eyebrows furrowed when he heard this. He couldn't help but admit that Yusuf had a point there.

Never did they agree to date each other. Once they had sex, they both went with the flow without defining what was between them. He didn't know where she lived or what plans she had before they graduated.

Yusuf put on a nerdy look and queried, "Did you guys ever define your relationship and agree to date formally?"

Chris shook his head sadly.

That never happened.

He had just assumed that they were dating since they were having sex. It never crossed his mind to ask her out or talk about their so-called relationship.

Yusuf did a facepalm and tut-tutted. He didn't know that his genius of a friend could be so naive.

How could he have assumed they were dating because they had sex?

Yusuf sighed and inquired, "Tell me, did you both stay in touch with each other every day?"

Chris shook his head again.

"Did you know where she lived?"

Chris kept shaking his head. He barely knew anything about her. They only had sex in a hotel several times.

Yusuf spread out his arms and said, "Buddy, it turns out you were dating yourself, not her. It was just a booty call to her. And I'm afraid to say that she did nothing wrong."

These words pierced Chris' soul. He held his chest and breathed painstakingly.

The feeling of abandonment had weighed him down for the past two years. But after Yusuf examined the situation, he realized that he was stupid to have felt this way.

Nonetheless, finding out the truth was extremely painful.

As soon as Edmund and Yusuf left, Chelsea asked Luka, "Why did you get into a fight with him? Did he hit you first?"

"No, I did," Luka replied with a chuckle.

"Oh..." Chelsea was shocked to hear that. Luka was a calm person who rarely got angry. It was surprising to learn that he threw the first punch.

"I don't regret it one bit. Edmund and his family hurt you before. It's ridiculous that they are trying to do the same thing now!" Luka couldn't help getting angry whenever he remembered how Chelsea had been tortured by the Nelson family lately.

Chelsea was touched by his care. But she felt bad when she saw the bruise on his face. With tears in her eyes, she muttered, "I'm sorry for getting you into this."

"You don't have to apologize. What are friends for? How can I stand by and watch my friend who has helped me, get bullied? Don't worry. I have contacted a lawyer to take up this case. Sonya will get the punishment she deserves!" Luka uttered, beating his chest.

Although the lawyer hired by Peak Entertainment wasn't as famous as Brayan, he was also one of the best in the industry.

"Okay, thank you," Chelsea replied gently.

Due to the fever, she soon fell into a deep sleep.

Luka tucked her in and left. He wanted to find out what Edmund intended to do.
