Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart Summary

In their three years of marriage, Chelsea had been a dutiful wife to Edmund. She used to think that her love and care would someday melt Edmund’s cold heart, but she was wrong. Finally, she couldn’t take the disappointment any longer and chose to end the marriage. Edmund had always thought that his wife was just boring and dull.

So it was shocking when Chelsea suddenly threw divorce papers at his face in front of everyone at the Nelson Group’s anniversary party. How humiliating! After that, everyone thought that the formerly-married couple would never see each other again, even Chelsea. Once again, she thought wrong. Sometime later, at an award ceremony, Chelsea went onstage to accept the award for best screenplay.

Her ex-husband, Edmund, was the one presenting the award to her. As he handed her the trophy, he suddenly reached for her hand and pleaded humbly in front of the audience, “Chelsea, I’m sorry I didn’t cherish you before. Could you please give me another chance?”

Chelsea looked at him indifferently. “I’m sorry, Mr. Nelson. My only concern now is my business.” Edmund’s heart was shattered into a million pieces. “Chelsea, I really can’t live without you.” But his ex-wife just walked away. Wasn’t it better for her to just concentrate on her career? Men would only distract her—especially her ex-husband.
