Capítulo 254
Luka sighed helplessly, “You just left for one day. She’s crying that she misses you already. | don’t think she even sees me anymore. She only cares about you.”
Chelsea couldn’t help laughing as he complained.
Sitting beside the bed silently, Edmund watched Chelsea talk to Luka on the phone. He couldn’t take his eyes off her.
Seeing her smile because of something Luka said, he felt as if a thousand arrows had pierced his heart and left him bleeding. When the call ended, Chelsea noticed the look in Edmund’s eyes that were as sharp as blades, staring right at her face.

“Sure.” As soon as Edmund opened his mouth, his voice cout extremely hoarse from the anger he was holding back Passing by him, Chelsea said, “I already transferred the money for the clothes to Fay.”
Her tone was cold and indifferent as if she wanted to emphasize the boundary between them. As she was duty bound to return to him the money for a mere shirt.
Chelsea then walked out, and Edmund followed her.
Since she had to go to the police station to record her statement, Chelsea had no other choice but to get a ride from Edmund again. Yusuf and Fay had already left, so she couldn't use them as an excuse.
Fay had sent a message to Chelsea that said, “Chelsea, Mr. Collins and | have something urgent to deal with at work. We have to leave first but ILL see you in the evening.”
The truth was they had only left to give Edmund and Chelsea stalone. Otherwise, Chelsea would have definitely insisted on taking Fay’s car back.
At the stime, Fay and Yusuf had just left the hospital. With suggestive eyes, Yusuf looked Fay up and down and smiled. “Fay, | haven't seen you for a while. Why do you seem to get more beautiful?”
Fay was not as silent as she usually was when he teased her. She turned to him and said lightly, “Mr. Collins, aren’t you going to get engaged soon? It won't be pretty if your fiancée found out you are flirting with another woman, you know?”
Shortly after she said that, Yusuf shouted angrily, “Who the hell said | was going to get engaged?”

A few days before, the news that he had been to dinner with supper-class Lady had been on the top search list. Frustrated, Yusuf said in a huff, “You’ve been working for Edmund for so many years. Didn’t you see how the gossip about him and Diane blew up? Was any of it true?”
Fay was slightly surprised by that, she turned to look at him. Yusuf continued, “It’s just an arrangement made by my family. | never agreed to it.”
His words and the sad tone he used made the bitterness in Fay’s chest fade away.
She whispered, “I’m sorry.”
But just as she began to hope, she heard his careless voice again.
“| won't marry anyone. How can | just throw away my Life and marry for the interests of my family? What’s so good about getting married anyway? | don’t see why | have to give up my freedom just because of a woman.”
The flicker of hopeful joy in Fay’s heart was quickly extinguished by his words.
