Chapter: 44 | was wrong Judging by the way Chelsea spoke about apologizing with ease, Luka sensed that perhaps it wasn’t a big deal to her
ALL of a sudden, Chelsea remembered something. She asked, “That reminds me. You mentioned that he was satisfied with the script.”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Yes, he was. During the meeting, he Listened attentively as | read out the outline that you sent to me. You needed to see the look on his face. Not only did he look satisfied, but he also looked utterly surprised!” Luka replied excitedly.
“Are you kidding me? That’s a first! | actually thought he wouldn’t like it.” Chelsea lowered her eyes as soon as she said that.
She knew Edmund to be a man who was hard to please. His employees had a hard time working with him. Countless times, she heard him lose his temper in the study because of what his subordinates at work did.
Sensing the change in her mood, Luka said gently, “As | said some days ago, you need to believe in yourself, Chelsea. You have studied abroad and got your skills horned. Stop belittling yourself because of Edmund or anyone else.”
“I'm sorry, Mr. Pierce.” Chelsea came back to earth after hearing those encouraging words.
Being married to Edmund had shattered her self-esteem. People often commended her, but she sometimes found herself feeling inferior. Her past experience with Edmund was why she feared that he would hate her work.
“By the way, Diane wasn't satisfied with the script,” Luka suddenly added.
“Diane?” Chelsea’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
Luka glanced at her and explained, “Well, she accompanied Edmund to the meeting today.”
Chelsea rolled her eyes in disgust. After a short silence, she said, “I know exactly why she wasn’t satisfied with it.”
She had put two and two together. Since the play was about a prince who lived happily ever after with someone he didn’t love after his first love died, it wasn’t surprising that Diane felt that Chelsea had written it according to their love triangle
But that was far from the truth. Chelsea had written the ending according to the suggestions Luka and Eugene made when they had a discussion. They had thoroughly examined the climax and anti-climax of the plot.
Chelsea felt that the ending was perfect and she didn’t want to change it. Staring at Luka’s side profile, she asked curiously, “Do you think Edmund would ask me to rewrite the script just to please Diane?”
While Chelsea wrote this script, the story didn’t seem to have a connection with what was going on in her life.
She was a rational and thorough scriptwriter who left no stone unturned with respect to putting different interests into consideration.
“Well, it boils down to how important Diane is in Edmund’s heart,” Luka said in a calm voice.
Chelsea Lowered her eyes. Then she replied, “If you say so.”
At that instant, the thought of rewriting the script flashed through her mind.
She knew that Edmund and Diane were about to get married. Of course he would pander to her every whim.
Both Edmund and Diane attended the meeting earlier today. They went together. So, he must have acquiesced in her involvement in the script.
Diane wasn’t expected to act her role anymore after being married into the Nelson family. It would be very inappropriate for her to do so. There was a high chance that she would be transferred backstage. She may even become a movie producer. And Edmund might just be the one to pave the way for her this time.
