Chapter 94 Chelsea Was In Danger
Chapter 94 Chelsea Was In Danger
In the Nelson Group a few days later, Fay was lost in thought as she sat at her desk.
She was thinking about inviting Zuri and Chelsea to dinner. They had treated her to a sumptuous dinner the last time.
She then dialed Chelsea's number. The line connected after a few rings. They had barely exchanged pleasantries when Fay heard the sound of a door getting kicked. It was accompanied by the roar of a man.
"What's going on there?" Fay quickly asked after her heart skipped a beat.
"It's nothing. A drunk is just making a fuss in the corridor. Anyway, why did you call?" Chelsea spoke in a calm tone.
"Are you free tonight? I want to invite you and Zuri for dinner. What do you..." Another bang came from the other end of the line before Fay could finish speaking. The noise startled her.
"I'm sorry, Fay. I'm not available tonight. Let's do that some other time, okay?" Chelsea's voice was a little shaky at this time. However, she was still as polite as before.
Fay sighed and uttered, "Okay. But is everything okay with you?"
"Yes, everything is fine. I have got to go now. Talk to you later," Chelsea hastily replied and tried to hang up the phone.
But before she could do so, Fay heard a man say, "Open the door, Chelsea. I know you are..."
The line went dead halfway through the man's statement. Nonetheless, those first words were enough for Fay to guess that all was not well with Chelsea.
What could be happening over there? Wait a minute! That voice sounded familiar. Who was it?
Fay rubbed her temples and thought hard about where she had heard that voice from. A few seconds later, she sprang up to her feet.
"Oh my! That angry man must be Chelsea's brother, Garry!" Fay snapped her fingers in realization. She was sure of it.
She knew that Garry Williams was an irresponsible fellow who never gave Chelsea breathing space in the past.
It was said that Chelsea had given him and her father Hilton Williams all the money in her bank account before she had gone abroad, so they could get off her back.
Chelsea had cut all ties with them since then. She hadn't told them she was back in the country. It appeared that Garry traced her and was making trouble for her now.
"Gosh! She needs to be saved!" Without thinking further, Fay rushed to Edmund's office. She knocked on the door and entered before he even asked her to come in. In an anxious tone, she uttered, "Mr. Nelson, something bad might happen to Chelsea. She's in danger. You need to save her!"
"What happened? How is she in danger?" Edmund asked with a frown as he put aside the documents he had been working on hurriedly.
"I just spoke to her on the phone. Someone was shouting and kicking the door in the background. It seems to be Garry. I'm afraid that he might hurt her!" Fay replied, shaking uncontrollably.
"Garry?" Edmund abruptly stood up from his seat once he heard his former brother-in-law's name.
More than anyone else, Edmund knew that Garry was greedy, shameless, and troublesome. He had witnessed how Garry pestered Chelsea for money for three good years, so he suspected that the miscreant was at it again.
The fact that Garry was still a pest annoyed Edmund greatly. How could a man be so useless and shameless at the same time? Besides, where did he expect Chelsea to get money to give him?
During the time that Chelsea was still Mrs. Nelson, it was Edmund who satisfied the greed of Garry and Hilton.
He made sure to give them money whenever they asked for it just because he wanted to get rid of them. Although they kept coming back, Edmund was rich enough to settle them always. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
How would Chelsea sort them out now that she was nothing but a scriptwriter who probably earned chicken feed? It would be a nightmare for her!
Well, it serves her right! This was part of the consequences for divorcing him and throwing away the important title of Mrs. Nelson. Edmund pondered, frowning deeply.
However, he couldn't let her suffer alone. He grunted and grabbed his car key. Rushing to the door, he said, "I'll go and have a look."
"Please let me accompany you." Fay turned and followed him.
She reckoned that she needed to be there. Her boss was fond of either losing his tongue or speaking rudely whenever he was in Chelsea's presence. She wanted to be there to make sure things didn't get worse between the two of them.
Edmund drove to Chelsea's residence at a high speed. Fay had to cling to the roof handle for dear life. When they arrived, the first thing they saw was a police car parked outside.
