Capítulo 241
The only person that could get Edmund out of this was Chelsea. And she was with another man now.
The female employee tapped her chin for a while and muttered, “Oh, | get it now. Something tellsthat Mr. Nelson’s grumpiness is due to problems in his love life.”
“If that’s the case, it’s not a big deal. Love might hurt sometimes, but what’s the point of wallowing in despair instead taking the bull by the horns? Mr. Nelson needs to pursue the woman he is in love with. Even if he fails to win her heart in the end, he would have no regrets because he tried his best. He needs to chin up!” one of the male employees suddenly uttered, gesticulating with his hands.
The next second, he scratched his head in confusion and added, “Cto think of it. Why is a powerful man Like Mr. Nelson having a hard twith love? I’m dead sure thousands of women are dying to be with him. Why is a woman stressing him emotionally?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe others nodded in agreement. “It’s rather odd that Mr. Nelson is distressed about Love. How come?” Fay didn’t quite know the exact answer to this question
Although she knew that he was upset because of Chelsea, she couldn’t wrap her head around why it affected him so badly. After all, he always loathed her so much to the extent that he agreed to let her go over a year ago.
The inquisitive female employee was about to say something, but she paused when she saw Edmund at the door.
Her eyes bulged out of the sockets. Her face turned deathly pale. She quickly let go of Fay’s hand and bowed her head respectfully. “Mr. Nelson!”
The female employee bit her lower lip in regret. She had just been gossiping about Edmund. She feared that he would punish her for speaking about his love life.
Her heart was in her mouth as she waited for him to roar at all of them. To her surprise, Edmund didn’t utter a word. He just glanced at everyone and walked away. The employees let out deep sighs as soon as he left.
Fay was also shaken up by Edmund's sudden appearance and strange silence. She quickly said goodbye to her colleagues and ran after him.
He was waiting for the elevator at this time. Standing next to him, Fay cleared her throat and uttered in a low voice, “Mr. Nelson.. Edmund pretended not to hear her. He just fixed his eyes on the numbers that were counting down on the elevator screen.
“Please don’t take it to heart. They were only concerned about you.” Fay took it upon herself to put in a good word for her colleagues. She feared that Edmund was angry with them for gossiping about him. She didn’t want him to punish them as a result.
After a long silence, Edmund replied coldly, “Did | ask for an explanation? Anyway, | didn’t hear what you guys were talking about. | was just passing by at that time.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was a lie. Edmund had vividly heard when the male employee said that he needed to chin up and pursue the woman he loved. Those words kept repeating in his head.
Edmund had never gone after any woman in his Life. Thus, he didn’t know how to go about it now.
He hadn't put in great effort to woo Diane. When they first met, Diane was already into him. The feeling was mutual, so they hit it off after meeting a few times.
Pursuing a woman was a big deal for him. What did that employee mean by he just had to do it even if he failed to win her over? Impossible!
Failure wasn’t an option for Edmund. If he made up his mind to chase after Chelsea, he had to win her over no matter what.
Fay breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the calm expression on Edmund's face. She thanked her stars that he hadn’t heard what they said. Otherwise, the story would have been different.
Edmund didn’t go hafter leaving the company. He headed for Chelsea’s residence instead. Just when he reached the last intersection close to her apartment, he made a U-turn and drove home.
It had just occurred to him that Chelsea would be jetlagged since she just got back. He decided to give her tto rest tonight. Besides, she was going to attend Roy’s book signing tomorrow. He decided to see her there.
