Chapter: 97 “Even if you didn’t know, you were still an accomplice.” “An accomplice?” Edmund was confused.
“Yes. You have spoiled Diane so much that she has becso arrogant. You didn’t respectbefore, so she thought she could bullyas she pleased.”
After saying that, Chelsea got into Zuri’s car, and Zuri sped away. Edmund was Left standing there with a perplexed look in his eyes.
But he soon realized that Chelsea was right. It was all his fault.

Luka solemnly declared, “That’s for the best. | also don’t want to let them participate in the play. I’ve decided to be the director myself.” Startled, Edmund asked, “Are you serious, Luka?”
Edmund didn’t doubt Luka’s directorial capability. Luka had been an actor for nearly twenty years and a constant learner in the industry. Surely he could direct a play.
He just doubted that Luka was willing to undertake such a big task as director just to protect the scriptwriter, Chelsea.
“What do you think? Love is fleeting, Mr. Nelson. You need to seize it when it presents itself to you. If you miss it, it may be difficult to cby again.” Luka meant something else
How could Edmund not understand that Luka was jibing at him for not knowing how to cherish Chelsea?
Edmund retorted, “If you're seizing the love that’s now presenting itself to you, then good for you. But unlike you, I’m above being a cradle robber. You are so many years older than she is. Have you no shame?”
Luka answered leisurely, “Love knows no gender, age, or race.”
Edmund sneered, “Then | hope you get what you want.”
Of course that sentiment wasn’t really from the heart.

Hearing Luka mention Diane, Edmund couldn't help feeling annoyed. He hung up the phone without saying anything else. Luka must have brought up Diane on purpose.
Meanwhile, in Zuri’s car, Chelsea sank on her seat. She couldn’t help feeling frightened when she thought of what had just happened.
Hearing the whole story, Zuri praised Orlando excitedly, “Orlando is so awesome. I’m impressed with him this time. He did a great job. That lecher deserved to be beaten.”
Chelsea stopped her immediately.
“Con, Zuri. If this matter is exposed, Orlando’s career will be ruined.”
Zuri didn’t care. “It doesn’t matter if his career gets ruined. Worst-case scenario, he goes hand takes over the family business.”
Chelsea whipped her head to Zuri. With a smile, Zuri leaned toward her and said, “You don’t know yet, do you? Orlando hails from a rich family.”
Chelsea didn’t know that. Orlando had never told her about his family background, and she had never asked him because it was none of her business.
