Capítulo 146
Fay let out a silent sigh. She understood Chelsea wouldn’t change her mind about adding him.
In spite of that, she thought of giving it another try. “Mr. Nelson is always the one who refuses to add others. | never thought a day would cwhen someone else would reject his request.”
Ever since Edmund created a Facebook account, he had been receiving requests from women. He only let a few people in. Fay knew only a handful of people were there on her boss’s friend list. He wasn’t the sort of man who added just anyone. And those who were there were either his relatives, friends or assistants.
At this, Chelsea gave a Little chuckle and said, “In that case, you need to ask him what made him reject all those friend requests. And when he gives an answer to that, tell him | rejected his request for the very sreason.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFay had no choice but to give up on her pursuit. She returned to Edmund's office.
One could only imagine the fury Edmund felt at being rejected twice! When Fay entered the office, he asked coldly, “So what did she say?” Edmund had sworn that if Chelsea didn’t add him this time, he would quit caring about her. Whether she lived or died would be none of his concern. He wouldn't disgrace himself by going after her.
“She refused to accept your request so | told her you are the sort of man who rarely added people. She laughed and toldthat she is rejecting you for the sreason you reject others.” Fay saw no point in hiding the truth.
Edmund's fury had reached its peak. He could barely conceal it.
The reason he rejected other people was because he didn’t want to converse with them and was quite disgusted by their desperation to contact him. All in all, he was least bothered about them.
So did this mean she wasn't interested in him and he had no value in her life?
Edmund took deep breaths to calm himself. He couldn’t lose his temper in front of Fay.
Fay said tentatively, “Can |.. Can | print the details and take them to her instead?”
Edmund gave a snort of contempt and said with finality, “No. Since she doesn’t need my help, | am not going to try to help her.
He had clearly told Chelsea the matter was important yet she refused to talk to him. This clearly meant she wasn’t looking for any help. He saw no reason to take the initiative to help her out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFay nodded and said, “Okay, | see. Then I'll get back to work.” After Fay left, Edmund threw his pen angrily, venting his pent-up embarrassment and anger raised by Chelsea’s refusal.
When Fay was about to get off work in the afternoon, she called Chelsea and said, “Chelsea, don’t cook fortonight. | have a social engagement with Mr. Nelson.”
“Okay,” Chelsea replied readily.
Fay’s job demanded that she followed Edmund to his business meetings and social gatherings, so she had to dine out constantly. Chelsea was aware of this because Edmund constantly refused to eat dinner at hwhen they just got married. He always said that he was full.
He only began to eat at hafter the big health scare he had due to a severe stomachache. She adjusted his diet carefully. Since then he cut down the number of social gatherings and meetings he had outside
She couldn't help but wonder if he still drank a lot in such gatherings after their divorce. “Gosh! That's none of your business, Chelsea!” she said to herself, doing a facepalm.
After having a simple dinner alone, Chelsea continued to write the script in front of the computer
The clock chimed eleven and Fay was still not back yet. Chelsea sent a text to her, asking when she was going to cback and if she needed her to prepare shoney water for her.
A few minutes passed before she received a voice message as a response. Fay said, “Hey, Chelsea. I’m drunk. Please can you cand pickup?”
