Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Capítulo 62

Chapter: 62

Her head wasn’t woozy, nor were her words sloppy. The only effect that the alcohol had on her was that she suddenly had the urge to use the ladies’ room.

Holding her right hand, Fay commented in surprise, “You are really good at drinking!”

“Well, | naturally have a high tolerance for alcohol. | also practiced drinking for a Long time. This isn’t a first for me

“Wow! Does that mean you drink every day?” Fay exclaimed, still holding her right hand.

She was shocked that her boss’s gentle ex-wife had gone as far as practicing just to be a good drinker. It just didn’t add up. “Don’t get me wrong, Fay. | don’t actually drink every day. But | drank a lot while | was in college.”

Zuri had begun her acting career before they graduated. She was under a lot of pressure as a newcomer. Her studies and career gave her a hard time. Worse still, her boyfriend at the time broke her heart. To forget her worries, she drank a lot with Chelsea. It became a habit for them. And that was how they were able to hold their Liquor.

AlL of a sudden, Gerry staggered to his feet, causing his plate to shift abruptly. He held up his glass of wine towards Chelsea, urging her to continue drinking.

“Well, well, well. | had no idea that you are a drinking pro, Miss Williams. How come you never mentioned it?” Edmund suddenly spoke after eyeing Gerry. The Latter was forced to sit back down.

There was a hint of mockery and accusation in Edmund's tone. He was indirectly accusing her of keeping such a secret from him while they were married.

Unfazed by his subtle insult, Chelsea stared at him dead in the eye and explained Lightly, “Yes, | became a pro when | was still in college. But an accident that happened four years ago caused me to stay away from alcohol. The scar was so deep that I couldn’t bring myself to take another sip until recently. I’m able to drink now that | have escaped from the past and my scar has healed to some extent.”

The accident Chelsea was referring to was the one that brought her into Edmund's life. Her father and brother had set her up and made her have sex with him four years ago.

She was a victim of their evil orchestration, just like Edmund. However, he believed that she was on their side. He saw her as a gold-digger and a trickster who messed up his life. His wrong notion was a great blow to her. As a result, she vowed not to drink again.

It wasn’t until the eve of their divorce that Chelsea went back to her old ways.

A deep frown appeared on Edmund's face when he heard her explanation. Four years ago?

Didn’t they meet around that time?

Was she talking about the first night they had sex?

She had drunk that night.

But she willingly climbed on his bed! How the hell was it an accident? Why was she telling lies again? Or was there something he was missing?

Asstring of conflicting questions swirled in Edmund’s head. He badly wanted to question Chelsea, but this wasn’t the appropriate time. He gulped down the wine in his glass as if he wanted to drown his confusion.

The night was already far spent when the banquet ended. Gerry and his cohorts were wasted at this time. With the help of Luka, Edmund put them in a taxi and sent them off. He then got into his car and left with Fay. ALL the while, he didn’t spare his ex-wife a glance.

Chelsea was beyond joy that he completely ignored her. She wanted to make a clean break with him, so she hitched a ride in Luka’s car.

On the way, Luka glanced at her and said with a smile, “You surprised me tonight, Chelsea. Who would have thought that you were such a good drinker?”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“As they say, it’s not good to judge a book by its cover. Anyway, Gerry won’t pester me anymore, will he?” Chelsea asked with a smile.
