Capítulo 198
Chelsea smiled at that and said, “Well, | would never repeat that mistake. Even if someone offersten million to marry Edmund, | still won’t marry him.”
Nothing would make her want to marry him! She would rather die than live such a miserable life with that terrible man.
Luka smiled happily again. After all, this was exactly what he wanted to hear. With Edmund not standing a chance, he could slowly make his way to Chelsea’s heart.
If Edmund had any idea what Chelsea thought of him, he was bound to be pissed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was a Line in “A Chinese Odyssey”, which Luka thought was quite suitable for Edmund. A man had sincere love placed in front of him, but he was too proud to cherish it. However, when he lost it, he finally learned its value. There was nothing in the world more painful than losing someone’s love.
After the two finished talking about the script, Luka took out an invitation card from his bag and handed it to Chelsea. “There is a charity dinner at the film association this weekend. | would like to take you with me.”
Chelsea was a little surprised. “Do you mean to say you wantto join you?”
“That’s right. Now that you have officially beca scriptwriter, you have to expand your connections and make more friends in this circle.” Chelsea was very moved by this
“Thank you.” She took the invitation card. However, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
Luka was right. During the three years when Chelsea was with Edmund she had been a housewife and had not kept up with the happenings in society.
Then she went abroad to study. Now that she had joined the industry, she was a complete newcomer, and what a newcomer needed was to be skilled in how to get social engagement and how to accumulate connections.
Even though she wasn’t good at them, she had to force herself to adapt. Noticing how nervous she looked, Luka reassured her gently, “Don’t be nervous. Just cwith me. You need to know people in the circle first.”
“Okay.” Chelsea nodded as she silently swore to herself that she would try not to embarrass Luka.
Luka couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Chelsea had been married to Nelson for three years. If Edmund had attended social events with her, she wouldn't have been so nervous and awkward.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuka left after the dinner. After Chelsea had sent him on his way, she cleaned up and continued to work on the script. Edmund, who had just left angrily, made a phone call to Yusuf, asking that they go somewhere for a bite. Yusuf happened to be having dinner with Chris, so the three of them met at a restaurant run by Yusuf.
When ordering, Edmund’s mind replayed the scene of Luka coming out of the kitchen wearing Chelsea’s apron. This thought soured his mood and he pushed the menu aside.
Yusuf remarked casually, “I think you have been emotionally unstable recently. Do you need to go to the hospital for a check- up?”
Edmund rolled his eyes at him. Yusuf shouldn't speak if all he said was going to be annoying. Ignoring his bad mood, Yusuf and Chris began to place their order enthusiastically. Edmund lit a cigarette and resentfully asked, “What goes through the minds of men who cook?”
Without even raising his eyes, Yusuf replied, “Speople likeare picky about their food, and they don’t Like what others cook, so they choose to cook by themselves.”
Chris smiled and said, “Speople Likeregard cooking as a pleasure or a way to unwind.” Edmund gave them a cold look. They echoed each other, exposing Edmund's incompetence in cooking.
“Why do you ask this question all of a sudden?” Chris asked.
