Chapter 144

Edmund couldn't help cursing. "Damn it! Did you just come here to piss me off today?"

"I'm not!" Yusuf tried to explain helplessly.

Truth was, he actually didn't want to get married because of what Edmund was doing.

He had always been very unrestrained in love. Going with the vibe and leaving when he got bored.

He had never taken love seriously, nor did he ever think about marriage as something serious.

If it came down to the worst, they could break up or divorce. How bad could it be?

When Edmund and Chelsea had been about to divorce, Chris persuaded Edmund to calm down andthink twice. But Yusuf encouraged him to do it.

Edmund didn't love Chelsea back then. Moreover, she was the one who asked for a divorce. Yusufthought it would be better for Edmund to get the divorce as fast as possible.

However, Edmund's recent behavior towards Chelsea left him embarrassed.

Yusuf started to seriously doubt whether his view of love and marriage was right. And the more he sawEdmund's weirdness the more he panicked. What if one day he met a woman he couldn't let go of andwas stuck like Edmund?

That would be just pure torture.

Edmund stared at him for a long time and it was easy to tell what Yusuf was thinking. He suddenly gotso angry that he stood up and left.

"Hey, where are you going? You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Yusuf rushed out of the room andinnocently asked in concern, but Edmund walked away faster and faster without looking back.

Then Yusuf returned to the private room and threw himself on the sofa again. He began to think aboutwhether he should really accept the marriage arranged by his family.

The next morning, Fay bought a pen for Chelsea to give to Edmund and asked the shop assistant towrap it up exquisitely.

In the gift box, was a card written by Chelsea. It said, "Mr. Nelson, thank you for your help. This smallgift shows my gratitude toward your actions. I wish you all the best."

When Fay saw the serious card Chelsea had written, she could barely hold back her laughter.

Chelsea really regarded Edmund as a person who should be thanked formally.

As soon as she got back to the company, Fay went straight to Edmund's office as she couldn't wait tosee his reaction. Edmund frowned slightly and looked at the exquisite box in front of him. He suddenlyhad a bad feeling.

"Mr. Nelson, this is the gift Chelsea asked me to give you." When Fay said that, Edmund's facedarkened at once.

Fay ventured to finish the rest hurriedly before he exploded, "She said she wanted to thank you forhelping her."

Then she stepped aside just in case. Edmund looked ready to kill anything he laid his hands on, butthat just made her want to burst into laughter.

Of course, she tried her best to keep a straight face.

Edmund was so angry that he could hardly breathe for a moment. His mind was racing so fast that healmost felt dizzy.

Just before Fay came in, Chris had sent him a message, saying that Chelsea had invited him to dinnerand asked him to set the time.

Chris had told him that it was better if he went with them.

But then, Fay gave him such a gift. It turned out that Chelsea hadn't planned to invite him to dinner atall.

How could she be so unfair?

Both of them had helped her, but she just gave him an impersonal gift, and that too was given to him bysomeone else. Yet she had invited Chris to dinner.

Edmund was so angry, he forgot that the pen was much more expensive than a meal.
