He didn’t because he had no balls, right?

It would help bring in more investors and also makepopular. What's so bad in that?”
Chelsea had no intention of changing the way Edmund thought of her. She decided to act like an unscrupulous woman since he already placed that label on her.

The fact that she didn’t bother to explain things to Edmund or defend herself meant only one thing: she didn’t give a damn about him.
