Chapter: 12
In the office, Luka weed Chelsea and asked tentatively, “Mr. Nelson just left here. Did you see him?”
Luka was aware that Chelsea and Edmund had a messy divorce a year ago, so he wanted to know how their chance meeting
went.
“Yes.” Chelsea nodded calmly.
After hesitating for a while, Luka said, “He came to sign a contract with me. There’s a new project at hand. It’s a royal drama. Mr.
Nelson is investing in it. We n to make it a hit far more than the others.”
Aknowing smile appeared on Chelsea’s face at this moment. Without mincing words, she asked, “Do you want me to be the
scriptwriter of this y?”
Luka shed her a smile. “Well, there’s no point beating around the bush since you already guessed it. But | want you to know
that if you want to avoid dealing with Mr. Nelson, | can get another scriptwriter to do it.”
Having received no response from Chelsea, Luka continued, “As you may well know, | believe in your talent. | think you should
take on this project. The story is female-oriented. We need a scriptwriter who can connect to the plot of the y. Not only are you
a female, but you are also experienced and studious. You are capable of steering up people’s emotions with your writing. With
your script, the y will definitely be a hit!”
Chelsea blushed proudly. She said, “Thank you for thepliment, Mr. Pierce. I’m more than willing to take this assignment. |
don’t mind having to deal with my ex-husband. My job is very important to me. | won’t mix work with my personal affairs.”
Spending twelve months abroad had given her a new perspective on life. She was slowly healing and getting her life back on
track. Now that she had such a good opportunity, she wasn’t going to give it up just because of Edmund.
Although she had written the script for a few ys in the past, she was yet to gain a foothold in the film industry. If she worked on
a popr y, it would make her known and open more doors for her.N?velDrama.Org content.
“That’s great!” Luka pped his hands excitedly and gave her an appreciative look.
Only a year ago, Chelsea was a woman who walked into his office looking like she had been abandoned by the whole world.
Pain, fatigue, and desperation were all he saw in her eyes at that time. But now, her eyes were filled with newfound confidence
and joy.
Judging by Chelsea’s zeal to work and how she remained calm after bumping into Edmund, Luka believed that she would
perform well even though Edmund was involved in the project.
Luka gave Chelsea the project n of the y. After scanning through the document, she looked up and asked, “Who will be the
heroine? Is it Diane Stevenson?”
Diane was the Last person Chelsea gave a damn about. She only asked that question because she needed to know the actress
who would be ying the heroine in advance. It would help her shape the character.
The fact that Edmund only cast Diane for the major female roles after setting up a film and television department in the Nelson
Group was another reason why Chelsea was curious. Since he was an investor in this y, it wouldn''t be surprising if he
rmended his lover for the role of the heroine.
“Well, no. Diane hasn''t acted for a long time.” Luka tapped his fingers on his desk. He added hesitantly, “Actually, rumor has it
that she’ll get married into the Nelson family soon.”
“No surprise there!” Chelseamented with a tone of mockery.
It didn’te as a surprise to her that Edmund was set to get married to Diane. In fact, she thought they would have gotten
married immediately after his divorce.
Since Diane wasn’t going to be acting in this y, Chelsea was relieved that she didn’t have to put up with her. It was one less
thing for her to worry about.
At seven o''clock in the evening, on the top floor of the Nelson Group.
The light in the CEO’s office was still on. Edmund was seated in his chair with aputer in front of him.
He had on an expensive suit and a simple white shirt. The tie on his neck was still smartly knotted. His aura was as charming as
ever.
Edmund’s eyebrows were furrowed at this time. After bumping into
