Mr. Nelsonn Winning His Ex-wife’s Heart

Capítulo 110

Zuri had been relishing the subtle competition between Luka and Edmund a while back. She wanted the drama to continue. So, when the next agenda was read, she seized the opportunity to speak

“Alas! It’s a pity that Diane no Longer has an interest in acting. She would have been the perfect actress for the prince’s first love,” Zuri uttered slowly, her eyes fixed on Edmund’s displeased face.

Those who knew the history between Diane, Chelsea and Edmund knew what Zuri was insinuating.

However, this wasn’t the case for the oblivious ones. One of them echoed, “Yes, Diane is a talented actress. Her gentle temperament is exactly Like that of the prince's first love. No one else can own this role like she would!”

The person praised Diane zealously. Of course he wouldn't pass up the opportunity to please Edmund since Diane was dating him.

Contrary to what was expected, a deep frown appeared on Edmund's face He rolled his eyes and turned to look at Chelsea again. He said, “The scriptwriter has a good sense of judgment. Let's listen to her opinion Chelsea, do you think Diane is good for this role?”

For the second time today, he put her in the spotlight. It took Chelsea by surprise that he asked for her opinion concerning Diane.

What was he up to? Was he trying to set her up? Or did he just want her to feel uncomfortable at the mention of his beloved girlfriend’s name?

After weighing some thoughts in her head, Chelsea finally responded with a smile, “I can’t tell if Diane is perfect for the role because | haven't seen any of her movies. Only those who have watched her movies can tell. Or better still, you can tell us, Mr. Nelson. You should know her better since she’s your girlfriend.”

Mentioning the relationship between Edmund and Diane was Chelsea’s deliberate attempt to get him off her back for the rest of the meeting.

However, Edmund smiled faintly and said, “That’s not remotely true. Two people can be together without knowing each other well. After all, | never knew my ex-wife well.”

Everyone present knew that Edmund was a divorcee. But only a few of them knew that his ex-wife was Chelsea.

It never occurred to Chelsea that Edmund would mention their marriage in public. She awkwardly adjusted in her seat and tugged at one of her braids unintentionally.

Anger simmered inside her as she thought of how he had indirectly said that she was secretive during their marriage. Holding back her anger, she stared at him squarely.

“Sounds to me like you didn’t put in any effort to get to know your ex-wife. I’m sure three years is enough time to get to know someone who Lived under the same roof as you. Well, you must have ignored your ex-wife because you had eyes for another woman outside.”

Chelsea matched Edmund’s energy. She stressed that he was unfaithful since he was indirectly trying to smear her image in public

Luka suddenly cleared his throat, breaking the ice between the two.

“Listen up, everyone. We are supposed to be discussing the candidates for the supporting role, not Mr. Nelson’s private Life.”

In a serious tone, he continued, “In my opinion, Diane is not suitable for the role. She won't have time to be on set. After all, she would get married to Mr. Nelson soon and give birth to a child almost immediately. It’s best to give this role to an actress who's not preoccupied.”

Asharp pain tugged at Chelsea’s heart after Luka spoke about Diane marrying Edmund and bearing his child.

The words Edmund said to her that day after she eavesdropped on his conversation with Ethan replayed in her head. He had said she was not worthy of carrying his child.

Awhole year had passed since that incident, but it was just Like yesterday in Chelsea’s mind. Her tear ducts were tickled at this moment .

Chelsea lowered her eyes. Her slender fingers held the pen tightly. She took deep breaths in a bid to suppress the pain in her heart.
