Chapter Capítulo 54
Chapter: 54
“Chelsea wants to quit the project. She's an asset to the production team. If you
want us to continue cooperating, you need to appoint someone to represent you
during the project.”
Luka expressed that Edmund wasn’t welcome without mincing words. Edmund
was furious.
“Chelsea said she wants to quit?”
“Yes, she did,” Luka answered truthfully.
Edmund lost it. He grunted and threw his phone to the wall.
What the hell was wrong with Chelsea? How could she quit wilfully just because
she experienced something unpleasant?
Why was she so quick-tempered now? And when did she become such an early
quitter?
The fact that Edmund threw his phone away in anger only meant one thing; he
didn’t agree with Luka’s proposal.
Luka didn’t bother calling him again. After watching the way his friend reacted,
Yusuf rubbed his chin and put two and two together. He then said, “I think Luka
has a crush on Chelsea.”
Edmund's face darkened. His chest heaved up and down as he kept mute.
“Come to think of it. An investor is a god in the film industry. Everyone is
expected to do their best to please him. In this case, it makes no sense that he
wants you not to be directly involved in the production process. You have the
right to lay off and bring on anyone at any point in time. Since Chelsea doesn't
want to work with you, she should be the one to take a walk. How dare Luka ask
you to appoint a representative?”
Since Luka was taking Edmund out instead of Chelsea, Yusuf came to the
conclusion that he kept her not only because she was talented, but also because
he had a crush on her.
He felt that Luka didn’t want Edmund anywhere near Chelsea because he
wanted to have the opportunity to woo her in the future.
Edmund knew exactly what his friend was thinking. He felt that it was reasonable.
However, he just glanced at him coldly, grabbed the bottle of wine, and gulped
down most of its content in the blink of an eye.
Since the meeting, Edmund had figured that Luka had feelings for Chelsea. But
he never thought Luka could go as far as telling him off just to protect her. After
all, a lot was at stake for him if Edmund pulled the plug on the deal.
Yusuf stood up and grabbed the bottle of wine from Edmund's hand. He gave it
to the waiter and asked him to leave for fear that his friend would grab it again.
He didn’t want Edmund to have a stomachache. After all, only Chelsea could
take good care of him. But that couldn’t happen now.
Diane, a self-proclaimed princess, was the one by his side now. She was so lazy
that she made other people do almost everything for her. How could she take
good care of Edmund?
In public, she behaved like a caring and good wife-to-be. But it was all fake. She
couldn’t do any serious chore for him.
