What Edmund said put Yusuf into a thoughtful silence and after a while, Yusuf finally said, “Ok. I know.”
Then Yusuf hung up the phone.
Putting his phone away, Edmund tiredly squeezed his knitted eyebrows. Though Yusuf had been
through many rtionships and boasted himself as the master of love, when he met the one he truly
loved, he had no idea of what he was going to do.
Not long after Yusuf’s call, Edmund received another call from Trevor which reminded him of Ondo
at once. If Ondo hadn’t called Chelsea, then they would not quarrel over such trifles, and thinking of
this only annoyed Edmund even more.
But he didn’t want to talk about their rtionship with Trevor, so he picked up the phone and said
coolly, “I heard you returned from abroad. When did you arrive?”

Trevor sounded much better this time and he said, “I came back the next day after talking to you on the
phone. I’ve already made up my mind. My career is the only thing I have now, so I will try my best to
get this TV show done no matter what.”
Hearing Trevor’s words, Edmund thought with contempt, “Well, it turns out Trevor isn’t as brainless as I
thought.”
Edmund continued asking, “When will Ondo and Vickie attend the audition?”
“Around these days,” Trevor answered.
“Don’t let Ondo pass once he made the tiniest mistake,” Edmund required.
“Well..” Trevor was bewildered, “I thought Ondo was rmended by Miss Chelsea.”
Taking a deep breath, Edmund thought to himself, “This is the very reason why Ondo can’t act in this
show.” But instead, he retorted, “Are you choosing the actor or the referee?”
Trevor felt even more confused. He thought Edmund was pursuing Chelsea, so by giving Ondo the
character he could please Chelsea thus pleasing Edmund.
But now questioned by Edmund, Trevor protested immediately, “Of course I am choosing the actor. I
will not use the actor unless he has excellent acting skills and is perfectly suitable for the character.”
“Great. Make sure you do that,” Edmund said.
Trevor could tell Edmund was quite angry through the phone so after telling Edmund he had been back
from abroad and was ready to work, he hung up the phone as soon as possible.
It was nearly the end of the office hour when Edmund received a message from Chris saying, “I heard
you and Chelsea was back in the Vertoak. My mom and I visited Frances a few days ago, and Frances
said Chelsea would finish thest dose of the medicines around these days, so she made more
medicines for Chelsea and told me to bring them to Chelsea. Should I give the medicines to you or
should I go directly to Chelsea?
Edmund was nning to work overtime but seeing the message, he texted back instantly, “Don’t
bother. I will go to your ce to collect the medicines and bring them to her myself.” Edmund was still
worrying that Chelsea would refuse to see him but the medicines offered him a perfect excuse to go to
her ce.
Grabbing his car key, Edmund left at once, forgetting all about his work.

Chelsea didn’t receive any text messages or phone calls from Edmund the whole afternoon, but when
preparing dinner, she made more than she could eat unconsciously. After cing the dinner on the
table, it turned out she had prepared the meal for Edmund as well.
With a sigh, she was about to sit down and eat dinner when the Gordon rang.
She went to open the door and it was Edmund outside. He was a Large man but he seemed so timid
when he handed the medicines to Chelsea and said softly, “The medicines Frances prepared for you.”
“Thanks,” Chelsea said.
Having delivered the medicines, Edmund was still standing in front of the door. So, Chelsea had to ask,
“Have you eaten dinner?”
Chelsea had been thinking about the rtionship between her and Edmund the whole afternoon and
she persuaded herself to forgive Edmund’s lying to her since they had epted each other and begun
to Live together again. So, if he forgave her for saying about breaking up, then she would not be mad
at him anymore.
Asking him for dinner was a sign of reconciliation
