Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart -
Chapter 154
Chapter 154
Edmund looked at the director expressionlessly. As soon as the director opened his mouth, Edmundknew what he intended to say.
"Although this matter has finally been resolved and Chelsea's image has been restored, we still can'tbe sure that it won't happen again."
Edmund fixed his gaze on him and replied flatly, "It won't happen again."
The director still insisted, "The filming of The Crown is a big-budget production. The loss will bemassive if another batch of Chelsea's dirty laundry gets tossed out in the open."
Edmund didn't say a word, but he was already in a foul mood.
Still, the director continued, "Mr. Nelson, you know very well that this play has already cost us a lot ofenergy and money since we began working on it. Chelsea may not be one of the actresses in the play,but she's still involved as the scriptwriter. If she gets gossiped about again, she will put the entireproduction at risk. If something happens to her, the project will be postponed, and we will lose time andmoney again. I suggest we get a new scriptwriter."
Edmund didn't interrupt the director the whole time. He just let him talk and talk.
After he finished speaking, Edmund asked pointedly, "How do you know that Chelsea is the scriptwriterfor The Crown?"
First of all, although some information on Chelsea had been exposed on the Internet, her role as TheCrown's scriptwriter hadn't been made public.
Second, this director wasn't involved in the Nelson Group's film and television department. Also,besides The Crown, the Nelson Group had many film and television projects in progress. Why did heonly focus on The Crown?
Someone must've incited him to get Chelsea replaced as The Crown's scriptwriter. What other reasoncould he have?
The director was speechless for a moment.
Edmund flashed him a cold look and then moved on to the next item on the agenda.
After the meeting, Diane's agent, Katharine Acosta, stayed.
Katharine said to Edmund, "Mr. Nelson, Miss Stevenson called me and said that she wanted tocontinue with her work."
After Diane stopped acting, Katharine kept working for the Nelson Group and handled two othertalents.
Perhaps it was because Edmund didn't have a good impression of Diane that he also disliked heragent.
So he replied in an indifferent tone, "Fine. You can make the arrangements for her."
Katharine continued, "I heard that the female supporting role in The Crown hasn't been filled yet. Iwonder if she can have that part in the play."
Edmund felt even more disgusted. He said impatiently, "I don't do casting, Katharine. If Diane isinterested in the role, then you two should get in touch with Luka and replace out when he's holdingauditions."
Katharine didn't know how to respond for a moment. In the past, whenever Edmund invested in a play,he always green-lit whatever role Diane fancied.
But now, he was going to make Diane audition. But he was the main investor. Couldn't he just let Dianehave the role without making her jump through hoops?
Obviously, Edmund was distancing himself from Diane. As much as possible, he didn't want her to actin The Crown.
Katharine had no choice but to agree. "Very well."
She was just passing on a message anyway. As for what Diane wanted to do, it had nothing to do withher.
After Katharine left, Edmund turned to Fay and said, "Contact Chelsea and ask her to see Keith withme later."
Last time, Chelsea said that Keith was the best candidate for the role of the hero, so Edmund invitedKeith.
As the scriptwriter, Chelsea should help him persuade Keith to act in the play.
Fay replied, "Yes, sir."
Ten minutes later, Fay trotted over and reported to Edmund, "Mr. Nelson, Miss Williams isn't feelingwell. She has a terrible stomachache today and can't get out of bed. I'm afraid she can't come with youto meet with Keith, sir."
