Capítulo 214
“Don’t say that, Orlando. One man’s meat is another man’s poison. Everyone can’t like the sthing. You are still young. Don’t get caught up in the mess of relationships. Focus on your career.”
“Age is just a number, Chelsea. I’m young, but I’m mentally more mature than my age. | know exactly what I want. I’m not like other men,” Orlando stubbornly declared.
“Oh, |...” Chelsea was about to respond when she saw Edmund walking towards them. Her eyebrows furrowed immediately What did he want? Why was he walking up to her again?
Orlando followed her gaze only for his eyes to fall on Edmund. Without sparing a second to think, he turned around and shielded Chelsea. Edmund shot him a murderous look and said to Chelsea, “We need to talk.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOrlando took the initiative to say, “You can’t.. “Okay,” Chelsea agreed to Edmund's suggestion, cutting Orlando short.
The banquet hall was crowded. Chelsea didn’t want Edmund to make a scene in front of all these people. And that was why she agreed.
Looking up at Orlando, she flashed him a reassuring smile and said, “I'LL be fine. Please go ahead and enjoy the party.” Orlando didn’t want to leave her alone with her ex-husband. But he had to since Chelsea already consented to it.
The former couple walked out of the banquet hall one after the other. Edmund led her to his car and opened the door of the front passenger seat. Chelsea glanced at him. Standing outside would draw attention to them, so she got into the car reluctantly.
Edmund immediately got behind the wheel and drove off without uttering a word.
After thinking for a while, Chelsea called Luka. “Hello, Mr. Pierce. Something just cup. | just left the party. I’m sorry for the inconvenience this may cause you.”
Luka had brought her as his date tonight. It was improper to leave him at the party. He might get worried once he noticed her absence, so she called to give him a heads-up.
“Tsk, tsk!” Edmund muttered as soon as she finished speaking. He was mocking her for reporting her move to Luka as if she were a child.
Chelsea turned a deaf ear to him. On the other end of the Line, Luka uttered worriedly, “Orlando already told me. Do you need my help?”
“No, thanks.” Since Chelsea sounded calm, Luka was a little relieved. He thanked her for accompanying him tonight and told her to get hsafely to have a good rest. Afterward, he hung up the phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEdmund drove to the seaside. A cold wind blew once he got out of the car. It made him realize that he had made the wrong choice.
It was still summer, but the air here was cold. Chelsea had on a backless dress tonight.
When he saw that she wrapped her arms around herself and shivered, he instantly regretted bringing her here.
On impulse, he took off his suit jacket and tried to put it on her to prevent her from catching a cold. Chelsea instinctively beat a hasty retreat to avoid getting covered with his suit jacket.
“Thanks, but no thanks. There would be no need for that. | don’t feel cold,” Chelsea said with a straight face. This was a big lie. She just didn’t want to accept his kindness now.
Edmund turned a deaf ear to her words. After staring at her meaningfully, he moved closer and wrapped his jacket around her. Chelsea didn’t want to put up a fight. If she did, his arms would continue to be wrapped around her.
She quickly grasped the flaps of the jacket and smiled politely.
