Capítulo 296


    As soon as Edmund got in the car, Jaime said indifferently, “Why did you not let her join us in the car? Are you under the


    impression | will eat her?”


    Edmund, when he replied back, had the same indifference as his father.


    “She doesn’t know us well. It won''t befortable for her.”


    He was sure Jaime had deliberately appeared here to pressurize Chelsea. After all, it was Chelsea who had decided to sue


    Sonya.


    Jaime raised his eyebrows in amusement and asked, “If she is not familiar with you, why are you on a business trip together?”


    “It''s strictly for work,” Edmund replied.


    Jaime was rendered speechless When had his son learned to Lie through his teeth?


    Sonya had told him on phone that Edmund was madly in Love with Chelsea. But now, he was trying to downy it and act as if


    Chelsea was merely a workmate.


    Jaime was too angry to speak. The two of them looked out of the window, and neither of them made an effort to break this


    silence.


    Jaime hadn''t spent much time with his children. Now he Lived abroad all year round, so the rtionship between him and


    Edmund was quite strained.


    Truth be told, it wouldn’t be exaggerating to say Edmund only had a blood rtionship with Jaime. Neither of them genuinely


    cared for each other.Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Therefore, seeing that Jaime came back and tried to interfere in Sonya’s affairs, Edmund felt a stirring of annoyance.


    He wouldn’t allow Jaime to interfere!


    Chelsea went back by Leo’s car. The two of them had a nice conversation on their journey.


    Although Leo and Fay were twins, they were the pr opposites of each other. Leo was talkative while Fay was quiet.


    After Chelsea got home, she got a call from Chris who said he woulde soon to check theputer. It was a pressing matter


    that Chelsea was eager to have resolved.


    Twenty minutester, Chris arrived. Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed sses, he looked like an elite ss member.


    After operating theputer skillfully, Chris proudly announced to Chelsea, “Now yourputer is very secure. It will be just


    about impossible for hackers to invade it. You can rest assured and concentrate on your work.”


    Chelsea nodded her head and said, “Thank you very much. By the way, | want to invite you and Zora for dinner some other time.


    It was Chris who had rmended Zora to her. She gathered they must know each other well. As a consequence, she thought


    he would be thrilled to join them.


    To her utter surprise, Chris refused, “No! Don’t make me stay with her.”


    Chelsea, quite confounded by his behavior, asked, “What’s wrong? Aren''t you colleagues? If | am not wrong, you rmended


    Zora, didn’t you?”


    “Well, you are wrong. | barely know her and we aren’t well-aquatinted,” said Chris, resentment building inside of him.


    Chelsea knew better than to push him. “Well, all right. In that case, I’ll invite her alone.”


    As Chelsea said this, she took her bag and said, “Let''s go. Thank you for helping me fix myputer. I’LL treat you to dinner


    alone.”
