Edmund slapped his forehead as he got upset. What kind of friends did he have? Why were they always making fun of him?
“There’s no point assuming whether or not she will accept. Just call her first!” Edmund didn’t care if Luka would help Chelsea. He wanted to offer help first.
“Okay, | will do,” Brayan replied. Just when Edmund was about to hang up, he heard a female roar from the other end of the line.
“Brayan, did you smoke at home again? | have told you times without number, stop smoking in here! You have to sleep in the guest room until the nasty smell of cigarettes dissipates. You are exhausting!”
Brayan kept mute as he was being scolded.
Edmund burst into laughter. His long-awaited chance to laugh at Brayan was here, so he milked it. “Mr. Collins, you are getting scolded Like a two-year-old in your own home. He-he! You can’t even smoke there. Why do you always pretend that your home is blissful?”
Brayan didn’t get angry.
“You know nothing, pal. She’s scolding me because she cares about my health!”
“Bah! How are you so sure? Something tells me she’s doing it because she hates the smell of cigarettes!” Brayan tried to defend himself and his wife at the same time.
“How can you know my wife more than me? Believe me when | say that she’s doing it for my own good.”
Edmund knew that arguing with Brayan was a lost cause. “You are a lawyer. | can’t win this argument. Have fun with your wife. | hope she won't throw you out when you smoke again. Bye
After hanging up, Edmund made a call to Leo.
“| want you to find out when Roy intends to leave Vertoak. Try to convince him to stay another day.” He felt that Chelsea must be filled with regret since she didn’t get to meet Roy.
He wanted to make her happy by setting up a meeting with Roy.
“Okay, | will do that now.” Leo immediately contacted Roy after the call ended.
Edmund received a call from his grandfather just when he ended the talk with Leo.
“Your mother is making a fuss here. You have to come to see her when you are free,” Ethan said worriedly. “Okay,” Edmund remarked with a frown. It didn’t come as a surprise that his mother went to Ethan’s house to make a scene. He knew she did it because of Sonya.
Alena had called him and given him an earful because of what happened. She said he was heartless for allowing the cops to whisk his sister away and preventing anyone from bailing her out.
With a dead serious tone, he said, “She deserves to be punished by the law for what she did. Sonya’s bad behavior needs to be nipped in the bud. Otherwise, she will do something worse in the future!”
Edmund was disappointed at his mother for making a scene in his grandfather’s home. Ethan was unwell, so he drove there at a high speed to clean up the mess.
