Chapter 206

The unsuspecting Edmund hadn't seen that coming. He knew that going in wasn't a good idea, but hedidn't expect Luka to hit him.

Being the kind of person that couldn't take an attack lying down, and equally had bottled up a lot ofresentment against Luka, Edmund just couldn't stop himself from counterattacking. When the effect ofsurprise had worn off, Edmund punched him back, and they began fighting in the ward.

They were fortunate that Luka had placed Chelsea in a VIP ward. So apart from them and Yusuf, thesleeping Chelsea was the only one in the ward.

If not, the news of a senior actor and the CEO of the Nelson Group fighting would have hit theheadlines by the time they woke up tomorrow.

"Guys! Calm down!" Yusuf shouted as he tried to pull them apart.

After shouting several times, Yusuf decided that if anything was going to tear them apart consideringhow angry they were, it definitely wasn't him.

So he threw his hands up and gave up. He leaned against the wall and crossed his arms to watch theshow these two irrational men were giving him.

Yusuf shook his head as he watched Edmund waving his fists in all directions with his red eyes. He hadknown Edmund for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen him acting so violent.

Luka too wasn't someone who liked fighting. He had been in the entertainment industry for many years,and he was known for his easy-going and gentle nature. He had also experienced a lot, and was

usually in control of his emotions.

So, if he was acting this way, that meant he was really affected by what happened to Chelsea today.

When he called Chelsea that morning, he had felt that something was wrong with the way she spoke.After their call, he asked someone to investigate. That was when he found out that Chelsea waskidnapped by Sonya and almost got raped.

That news had given Luka a shock he hadn't experienced in a long while. Without wasting any time, hebooked the earliest flight and flew to her.

When she opened the door for him and he saw that she had a high fever, he became even morefurious than he already was.

That explained his anger when he saw Edmund in the ward. Edmund was definitely responsible for it,albeit indirectly.

At this point, he cared less about who he was, or who Edmund was, and he definitely didn't care aboutthe consequences. All he wanted in that moment was to beat the man that had caused his woman somuch pain.

As they fought, a nurse passing by heard the noise and tried to get in and see what was happening.Luckily, Yusuf stopped her before she could go in.

Being high and famous personalities, it was better that no one knew they were the ones fighting inthere.

At some point, they even forgot that they were in the hospital. They were so noisy that Chelsea slowlywoke up.

Yusuf was the first to notice that she was waking up. "Stop! Chelsea is up!"

Both Luka and Edmund froze at the same time. Covered in bruises, they both looked embarrassed asthey looked at Chelsea who was still not fully awake.

Their once neat and classic clothes were torn in different places.

None of them had gotten out of the fight without being hurt.

But Luka didn't care about the pain he was in. He forgot about his embarrassment and ran to Chelseain worry. "How are you feeling? Do you want some water?"

Chelsea still had a high fever, and she was also very weak.

She finally opened her eyes fully only to see something she would have never imagined happening.

She blinked several times, not knowing what to say to what she was seeing.

Were they really fighting while she was asleep?

Confused by what she was seeing, Chelsea struggled to sit up. "What are you guys doing?" she askedin a weak voice.

But Luka quickly held her down gently and said, "Your temperature is still very high. Just lie down."

"If she wants to get up, then let her. Why are you being so controlling?" Edmund grunted loudly.

This comment raised Luka's anger again, but he decided to hold it in for Chelsea's sake. He looked upand glared at Edmund.

He was obviously just taking care of her like he ought to. She was having a fever, and if she sat up, shewould feel dizzy.

Edmund stared back at Luka without flinching. If Luka thought his gaze was going to scare him away,then he was very wrong. Edmund couldn't help but be petty and wonder if Chelsea always had to dowhat this Luka guy wanted.

As both men stared at each other, the need to fight rose up in them again, and they were replaceing it hardto resist.

Seeing what was going on, Yusuf stepped between them and said, "Please, calm down. Think aboutyour image. Both of you!"

He hit them both lightly on the chest. If they picked up fighting again, there was no doubt that theywould be the topic of discussion for everyone in the city and out of the city by the time the day ran out.

To help calm them down, Chelsea raised her hand and tugged at the bottom of Luka's shirt. "Water,please."

It worked like a charm. Instantly, Luka calmed down, took a thermos cup and straw from the table andhelped her drink.

Disgusted by the scene, Edmund wiped the blood at the corner of his mouth angrily and looked away.

The truth was that he wanted to be the one taking care of her, not this jerk. But as faith would have it,he wasn't qualified enough.

Just seeing Luka taking care of her like this upset and annoyed him.

Yusuf understood what Edmund was going through, and he felt bad for him. So he decided to savehim. "Why don't we go out, huh?" he said with a small smile to Edmund.

Edmund didn't show it, but he was grateful to Yusuf in that moment. He definitely had no interest inwatching Chelsea and Luka show off their love. He glanced at Luka and said, "I have to talk to you. Socome out when you're done here."

After that, he wanted to turn and go, but his gaze was inevitably drawn to Chelsea, who unfortunatelygave him a cold stare.

"Have a good rest," he said to her and looked away.

Jaw clenching, Edmund strode out of the ward with Yusuf behind him.

"Edmund, it'll be better if you go to Chris' office first and change your clothes. And you have to deal withthat wound on your face too."

When Edmund ignored him, Yusuf rolled his eyes and continued, "You look disheveled, Edmund. It's asthough you were molested, and you don't want people thinking that way, do you?"

Edmund looked down at himself and sighed. Yusuf was right. Two buttons of his ironed white shirt weremissing, and his shirt was wrinkled.

Realizing this, Edmund glared at him, hating that he was right. With a huff, he turned and went to Chris'office.

When Chris saw Edmund's state as he entered his office, his mouth dropped open in shock.

But he immediately snapped out of it, realizing with disappointment that he must have fought with Luka.

Shaking his head in disbelief, Chris turned to his wardrobe, took out a clean shirt and gave it toEdmund.

They knew each other so well that they didn't even need to use words to understand the other person.
