Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Capítulo 38

Chapter: 38

Luka’s praise for Chelsea turned out to be deserving. Indeed, she was a good scriptwriter whose writing could captivate the hearts of people. Her design pattern was broad and interesting. This talented side of Chelsea wasn’t the one he knew at home all those years.

Once the meeting ended, Edmund went straight to Luka’s office, forgetting that he came with Diane.

Diane's good acting skills came in handy for her this morning. A smile was plastered on her face even though she was being ignored. However. her heart ached and she inwardly cursed non-stop.

Aargh! Why did Edmund no longer pay attention to her now that Chelsea was back?

Diane gritted her teeth, wishing she could just get rid of Chelsea once and for all. She decided to do anything within her power to stop them from getting back together

Edmund went straight to the point as soon as he entered Luka’s office.

“You know exactly what happened to Chelsea. So, tell me.”

Luka poured himself a glass of water slowly and avoided answering Edmund’s question.

“Mr. Nelson, please have a seat. | thought you came to talk about the script. Tell me, what do you think about it?”

Edmund remained standing. He pointed at him and asked impatiently, “What’s your deal, Luka? Why are you keeping me in the dark?”

Both men locked eyes for a few seconds that seemed like a thousand years. Luka finally broke his gaze and wrote down a series of numbers on a sheet of paper. He then handed it to Edmund. “Here you go. That’s her phone number. You can call to ask her yourself.”

Judging by Edmund's attitude, Luka deduced that he didn’t know today was the anniversary of Chelsea’s mother’s death.

He found this ridiculous owing to the fact that Edmund had been married to Chelsea for three years. This proved to Luka that what he heard in the past was true. Edmund had been an uncaring husband.

Luka sneered inwardly. Why was he so concerned about Chelsea now that they were divorced?

Could it be that he realized his mistakes? Was he trying to get back with her? Or did he just think that Chelsea still cared about him? What a delusional man!

Edmund snatched the piece of paper without hesitation. Instead of leaving, he said with a smirk, “Who would have thought that you had good eyes for talent? | have to hand it to you, you are a big risk-taker for sparing no effort to train a newcomer.”

Now that Edmund suspected that Luka had a crush on his ex-wife, he couldn't help satirizing him. He felt that Luka only sent Chelsea abroad because he liked her.

Like the intelligent man that he was, Luka read the underlying meaning in Edmund's words. He shook his head and smiled. “Mr. Nelson, | hate to say this, but it seems you don’t know your ex-wife at all. It's not that | am a big risk-taker or a good judge of talent. Chelsea is just too excellent that | couldn't help giving her a chance. You know, talented people need the platform to show what they're capable of. Otherwise, they would remain undiscovered like diamonds in the ground.”

“Oh, really?” Edmund scoffed and stared at Luka with his eyebrows raised.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“It might interest you to know that when Zuri first introduced Chelsea as a part-time scriptwriter, | casually gave her the script | was working on and asked her to write an outline as a test. To my greatest surprise, she did marvelously well. Her work was the best | had ever seen from new scriptwriters. Mr. Lewis even selected it at first glance. | can never forget how ecstatic he was when he came and asked to be her mentor.”

Atrace of surprise flashed through Edmund's eyes. It was no news that Eugene never liked to mentor anyone. He had broken the hearts of many upcoming scriptwriters who wanted to be his mentees. Thus, it was shocking to Learn that he personally asked to mentor Chelsea.

Noticing the surprise in Edmund’s eyes, Luka added, “You may not know this, but Chelsea has been fond of literature since childhood. Throughout her school years, she won various prizes for her literary pieces. She was also the best graduating student in her class at the university. You could say that she breathes literature.”

Edmund's head was full. It dawned on him that the woman who he had been married to for three years completely deceived him. If he didn’t know better, he would have thought Luka was showering praises on a completely different person.
