Chapter: 43
“I said that today is the anniversary of her mother’s death. She went to the
suburb yesterday evening. After visiting her mother’s tomb, she took the first bus
coming to Vertoak. Unfortunately, the bus had an accident on the way. She was
then sent to the hospital.”
Her mother’s death anniversary was today? What the hell! Edmund suffered a
banging headache in a split second. His hand that was holding the phone
became sweaty.
Although he knew that Chelsea had lost her mother many years ago, he didn’t
know the location of her tomb or the date of her death anniversary.
There was a high possibility that Chelsea mentioned it to him before and he
never bore it in mind. It was also possible that she never told him because he
always treated her badly.
Despite Chelsea’s grieving state, she had made a concerted effort to come back
in time for the meeting. She obviously had the right attitude to work. But he had
accused her of being unserious without Listening to her first. Edmund almost
pulled his hair out at this moment.
Meanwhile, Chelsea was sitting in the front passenger seat of Luka’’s car. Her
eyes were slightly red.
She wasn’t sad because Edmund scolded her. On the contrary, she was angry
with him.
Edmund’s behavior was getting on her nerves. He was giving her a hard time
even though she was out of his life. On second thought, Chelsea realized that
she wasn’t completely out of his life. He was the investor for the new play, so she
was his employee in a way.
Investors were regarded as gods in the entertainment industry.
They could hire and fire anyone at any point in time. As a result, Edmund had the
right to question her for being absent today.
Now that Chelsea realized that her anger was unwarranted, she became
remorseful. She Looked at Luka, who was driving beside her, and asked
worriedly, “Mr. Pierce, do you think Edmund will be mad at me for what I did
today? I was wrong, right?”
A trace of disappointment flickered in Luka. Trying to sound as casual as he
could, he asked, “Why are you so worried that he will be mad? Do you still care
about him?”
“No, I don’t care about him! I’m just worried that he might decide not to invest in
this play anymore because I told him off today. If that happens, I’d never forgive
myself. I just hope he doesn’t.”
Chelsea had a worried expression as she denied Luka’s guess
The disappointment Luka felt disappeared immediately. He sighed once Chelsea
made it clear that she no longer had feelings for her ex-husband.
Smiling brightly, he said, “So you are worried about the funding? Don’t worry.
Edmund is not that petty and he’s a good businessman. Investing in the play will
bring him great profit. I’m sure he wouldn’t give up such an opportunity because
you were rude to him.”
Chelsea held her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. She muttered, “Thank God.”
Luka and the other members of the production team were looking forward to
shooting the play and releasing it. If they lost Edmund’s investment, it would
shatter them all. Chelsea couldn’t bear to see them go through that.

She didn’t plan to speak to Edmund
in that manner. However, when his

call came through, she still hadn’t
gotten over the shock of the
accident. She cursed at him and even
sent a rude message to him via his
assistant in a fit of pique. The

It wasn’t until she calmed down and thought it through that she realized she had
overreacted.
“What if… What if he’s actually angry?” Luka teased her, keeping his eyes on the
road.
