On the top floor of the Nelson Group, in Edmund's office, Fay went over his schedule for the next day.
"Roy is holding a book signing event on the first floor of Fresh Bookstore at ten o'clock tomorrow
morning. Your meeting with him is scheduled for half past nine. So, you have about thirty minutes to
discuss with him."
All of Roy's novels were bestsellers. They had been adapted into TV series, and each was popular
among viewers.
Edmund planned to pitch a proposal to Roy to adapt his latest book into a play. He tried to beat
everyone else to it by meeting him that early. More so, he was going to offer Roy a good price.
After Edmund nodded attentively, Fay continued, "By the way, I have to say that Chelsea is actually a
big fan of Roy. She enjoys reading his books. I heard that Zuri got her a ticket for the event tomorrow,
so I believe she will be there."
Edmund sat up on his chair at the mention of his ex-wife's name. He asked doubtfully, "Are you sure
about this?"
He had no idea that Chelsea was a fan of Roy. But he knew that she was a bookworm. She always
read books during her leisure time.
Fay answered with certainty, "Yes, I am very sure. He's one of her favorite authors. She once
mentioned that she looked up to him. She hopes to be as successful as Roy in the scriptwriting field
one day."
Edmund was speechless.
He reasoned that Chelsea was rather weird. Other young women were crazy about handsome actors
and singers. But she was into a writer.
Edmund leaned back on his chair and thought for a while. He finally inquired, "Is she back yet?"
Fay replied, "Not yet. I think she's taking this night's flight."
Edmund nodded without saying anything. To ease his mind, Fay added, "They aren't married yet.
Chelsea doesn't have to be around him and his family all the time."
Edmund's heart skipped a beat when he heard the word "married". He lowered his eyes.
Fay suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my! Is there a possibility that they will get married legally soon just so
Luka's mother can breathe her last without any worries?"
Unbeknown to Fay, the whole relationship thing was just an act. She thought Chelsea had been moved
by Luka's sincerity and agreed to be his girlfriend.
Her mind had been messed up by the series of soap operas she binged on. As a result, she feared the
worst now.
The words Fay said made Edmund more worried. His pulse galloped like a runaway train.
His forehead broke out in cold sweat. The pen in his hand shook uncontrollably. He had never panicked
like this in his entire life.
He thought there was a high probability that Luka and Chelsea would get married quickly.
After all, he had done the same thing. Ethan was gravely ill over four years ago. The surgery he had to
undergo had a very low survival rate. Everyone in the Nelson family was told to prepare for the worst.
On his sick bed, Ethan ordered Edmund to get married as soon as possible. It was around this time
that Hilton and Garry set him up by sending Chelsea to his bed.
They even took her to the hospital to see Ethan the next day. Once Ethan heard what happened, he
insisted that Edmund marry Chelsea immediately.
Edmund's heart belonged to Diane even though she had just broken up with him. More so, he hated
Chelsea for climbing into his bed without his consent. He vehemently refused to marry her.
Nevertheless, his grandfather forced him to marry her, insisting that she would make a good wife and
he would rest assured even if the surgery wasn't successful.
History was repeating itself now. The only difference was that Edmund wasn't the male protagonist.
He knew that he wouldn't have a chance to win back Chelsea's heart if she got married to Luka.
When Fay noticed that Edmund was down in the dumps, she quickly said, "Pardon me, Mr. Nelson. I
was just guessing."
"If you have nothing else important to say, you can leave now," Edmund ordered, his head still lowered.
Fay did a slight bow and walked out quietly. In the corridor, one of the female employees stopped her.
She pulled her aside and asked inquisitively, "Is the boss in a better mood now?"
Although Fay and Leo were Edmund's assistants, they had dozens of people working under them
because the workload was too much for them to handle alone.
Everyone in this department stared at Fay eagerly.
It occurred to Fay that they had sensed that Edmund was in low spirits today. Perhaps his gloomy state
had even put a strain on their mental health.
Despite this, she decided not to hide the truth from them. "I hate to break it to you, but the worst is yet
to come. You all have to be extra careful at work, so Mr. Nelson won't transfer aggression to you."
The entire office was filled with wails and grumbles the next second.
The first female colleague said sadly, "The hardship has already begun. I forgot to print out an
important material for today's meeting, so Mr. Nelson ordered me to copy it by hand. Where do I start
from?"
A male employee bemoaned too. "I accidentally yawned in Mr. Nelson's presence. He said that I'm too
lazy due to a lack of exercise. He took me to the company's gym and ordered me to run on the
treadmill for over an hour. My bones and muscles are still aching badly."
Someone else quipped, "I received my own share of his anger during lunch break. I was speaking to
my girlfriend on the phone while sitting at the open-air bar on the rooftop when I suddenly felt a chill on
my back. When I turned around, I saw Mr. Nelson staring daggers at me. Is it a crime to call one's
girlfriend in the company? If I recall correctly, there's no rule that bans employees from having a love
life or making personal calls during lunch break."
Fay smiled knowingly. She guessed that Edmund had gotten jealous when he witnessed his employee
speaking so sweetly to his girlfriend while his love life was in shambles.
The female subordinate suddenly held Fay's hand and pleaded. "Fay, you and Leo are closer to him
than the rest of us. Please find a way to cheer him up. We can't continue to walk on eggshells around
him. Our anxiety is preventing us from working well."
Fay rubbed her forehead and replied, "I sincerely wish we could help. But we can't. This matter is way
beyond us."
Usually, Fay and Leo always took it upon themselves to cheer Edmund up whenever he was
depressed or facing troubles relating to work. But Edmund was distressed about love now. There was
nothing they could do to help him out.
