Chapter 250

When he had done all he could with Purple, Luka took his cat and went back to his hometown the nextday.

At the airport, when reporters spotted him, they rushed to him in hope of getting anything out of him.

"Mr. Pierce, why did you come with your cat this time instead of leaving it with your girlfriend as usual?"

Luka stopped and answered with a smile, "She has too much work to do, and I don't want to stressher."

When Edmund saw this interview, he frowned and then threw his phone aside in anger.

When his anger faded, he looked at the bright side of things. At least now, he wouldn't have to worryabout what Chelsea and Luka were doing together all day long.

Once again, he was having dinner with Yusuf. Chris didn't join them because he had work to do thatnight.

When they were seated, Yusuf looked at Edmund and complained, "Stop asking me out to dinner,please. If you have so much time on your hands, then just ask Chelsea out! After all, that's what youreally want to do."

Edmund rolled his eyes and ignored him.

If it was that easy to make an appointment with Chelsea, then he would never have to make Yusufspend the night with him to kill time.

Yusuf shook his head and then added provocatively, "Oh right, that's not possible. My bad, Chelseawent to Norrmalm. So even if you wanted to invite her, you can't."

Edmund blinked several times in shock and disbelief. "She went to Norrmalm?"

"Yup! She entrusted the cat you gave her to Zuri. That's how I found out. When I asked her why, shetold me that she was going to Norrmalm."

Edmund was going through so many emotions that he wasn't even able to string a couple of wordstogether. He was shocked, annoyed and frustrated at the same time.

He was also very sad. This was proof that Yusuf was more important to Chelsea than he was.

"Oh, and you remember the cup you told me to inquire about, right? Well, you can't get it now, but youcan ask someone to make the same one like the one in the picture. Do you want to give it to Chelsea?"

Still looking sad and disappointed, Edmund answered, "Yes. I broke her cup."

Yusuf looked at him in astonishment and then threw his hands up in frustration. He didn't know if hehad to feel bad for his friend or mock him at the moment. "You... The truth is I don't even know what todo. I have never seen anyone who found it so difficult to chase a woman like you. What sort of tactic isthat?"

Edmund rubbed his temples and sighed dejectedly. His mind was moving so fast at the moment. Henever expected so many challenges when he tried to get Chelsea back.

He once thought she still loved him very much. So when he went down this road, he was very sure thatshe would come back to him once she saw that he was into her.

He had spent so much time trying to show her how much he loved her, but she did not pay him anymind. As a matter of fact, she blacklisted him.

That was definitely not the type of reaction he had been hoping for. Now, he even had to ask otherpeople before knowing where she was.

"But you know what? It's not bad, so don't beat yourself up. This will just help you to cherish her morein the future," Yusuf said in a soft tone when Edmund didn't say anything.

It was as though Edmund wasn't even listening to him. As if he just thought of something, Edmundquickly picked up his phone, called Leo and ordered him to buy him a ticket for Norrmalm.

Yusuf shook his head in disbelief and asked, "What on earth do you think you are doing?"

Edmund frowned and avoided Yusuf's gaze. "Roy said he wanted to be her godfather. I'm sure shewent there to meet him.

Roy has only met her once. Isn't it strange that he wants to be her godfather?"

Yusuf knitted his eyebrows and asked, "Are you saying Roy wants to be her sugar daddy? That's notpossible! Roy has a good reputation that has never been stained in all these years. Besides, his familywill never let such a thing happen, right?"

The Ellis family was a very powerful one, and no one had ever succeeded in dragging its name downthe drain.

Edmund turned up his nose and said, "The world is full of crooks, Yusuf, and Chelsea is just tooinnocent. I have to go there and make sure nothing happens to her."

Yusuf thought he was making some sense, but he still wasn't convinced. So, he said, "Just be careful,and make sure you don't offend Roy."

Yusuf knew that Edmund regarded any man that came close to Chelsea as a rival.

If Roy really just wanted Chelsea to be his goddaughter and Edmund accidentally offended him, thenhe would be in big trouble.

If that happened, then he would only succeed in making it harder for him to get back together withChelsea. After all, the Ellis family was behind her now. So, she was no longer alone.

They chatted for a short while after that, before Edmund stood up and left.

Chelsea arrived Norrmalm in the afternoon and Roy had sent someone to pick her up.

She had booked a room at a hotel, but Roy insisted that she stay in the hotel he had already bookedfor her.

She couldn't refuse his offer, so she gave in.

In the evening, Roy went and picked her up for dinner.

During dinner, Chelsea asked, "I was thinking of going to the hospital tomorrow morning and visitingMrs. Ellis. Is that okay?"

Roy's wife was Kelli Fuller. The Fuller family was once a well-known family. However, they had becomealmost inexistent over the years. But, that did not affect the relationship between Roy and Kelli.

Roy smiled after hearing this. "Sure. I already have everything arranged. Kelli will be discharged fromthe hospital tomorrow morning. We can pick her up together and then attend the family party in theevening."

Afraid that Chelsea wouldn't be very comfortable with the family party, Roy glanced at her and said,"Don't worry, I already informed my family about your presence."

"Thank you," Chelsea answered with a smile, truly grateful.

"We are a family from now on, Chelsea. You don't need to thank me."

After dinner, Roy drove her around the city and showed her places. "You know, you can come and livehere in Norrmalm sometime in the future. I know you grew up in Vertoak and you have deep rootsthere. I'm just saying, okay? Just think about it. After all, it's your choice."

Chelsea smiled faintly and nodded.

Roy's consideration really warmed her heart. It made her look forward to once again having the warmthof a family.

At eleven o'clock, Chelsea returned to her hotel feeling fulfilled.

As soon as she got out of the car and saw the man standing in front of the hotel, her eyes went wide inshock and she stammered for a while before finally saying, "What are you doing here?"
