Chapter 159

Chelsea and Luka chattered along and discussed the script in detail as they had dinner. Chelseathought what Keith had said made sense.

Keith and Luka were both the best actors. They had a good grasp of the plot and conflicts in the play.Chelsea was assured she would learn a lot from them.

Before they knew, they were done with dinner.

Luka looked up at Chelsea, a stern look crossing his face. "I have a question for you," he said.

Chelsea was a bit taken aback by his seriousness. "What question?"

"Will you say yes if Edmund pursues you again?"

Chelsea didn't have to think twice before answering. "That's impossible. He would never pursue me,"she denied immediately.

After all, Edmund hated her with all his heart. Their divorce was a lifelong relief for him. Why would hebother getting her back?

Not once Chelsea had thought that there was a possibility for her and Edmund to be together! Just themere thought of it was absurd.

Luka, not quite relived yet, went on, "If that's the case, then what do you have to say about the flowershe brought?"

Chelsea's forehead was creased with a frown. "Didn't you just say that Diane wanted to play thesupporting role? Perhaps he wanted me to put in a good word for her."

Luka remained stunned for a few moments and then he burst into laughter.

He was relieved to know that even if Edmund wanted her back, it wouldn't be easy for him.

From the way Chelsea spoke, it was pretty evident that she wouldn't want to start anything withEdmund.

Of course, Edmund had no one but himself to blame for how she felt about him now. After all, he hadhurt her badly in the past. It would suffice to say he had dug his own grave.

Before Luka could change the topic, Chelsea said resolutely, "I was young and thoughtless in the past.I was under the impression that I could conquer love with sincerity. But life has taught me that to makea relationship work, both the partners will have to put in equal amount of effort. Now that I think of it,Edmund was never suitable for marriage. I made a grave mistake."

According to her, a man like Edmund with pride and ego had no place for love in his life.

He didn't know one thing about caring about another human being. Every time a problem occurred intheir life, he would give her the silent treatment. He never tried to dispel the misunderstanding thatarose in their relationship.

Now, the mere thought of spending her life with such a man made her feel disgusted.

Luka had no idea how mature Chelsea was. He was impressed with how well she had managed to

know Edmund. Nodding in agreement, he said, "Everybody makes mistakes. Fortunately, you realizedyour mistake and it helped you grow into a better person."

Chelsea smiled at that and said, "Well, I would never repeat that mistake. Even if someone offers meten million to marry Edmund, I still won't marry him."

Nothing would make her want to marry him!

She would rather die than live such a miserable life with that terrible man.

Luka smiled happily again. After all, this was exactly what he wanted to hear. With Edmund notstanding a chance, he could slowly make his way to Chelsea's heart.

If Edmund had any idea what Chelsea thought of him, he was bound to be pissed.

There was a line in "A Chinese Odyssey", which Luka thought was quite suitable for Edmund. A manhad sincere love placed in front of him, but he was too proud to cherish it. However, when he lost it, hefinally learned its value. There was nothing in the world more painful than losing someone's love.

After the two finished talking about the script, Luka took out an invitation card from his bag and handedit to Chelsea. "There is a charity dinner at the film association this weekend. I would like to take youwith me."

Chelsea was a little surprised. "Do you mean to say you want me to join you?"

"That's right. Now that you have officially become a scriptwriter, you have to expand your connectionsand make more friends in this circle." Chelsea was very moved by this.

"Thank you." She took the invitation card. However, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
