Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 129

The former couple was oblivious to the fact that they had completely different thoughts from each other.

On one hand, Edmund felt that Chelsea's so-called arrangement meant that she agreed to treat him to dinner. He even imagined that she would personally cook for him to show her sincerity.

Unbeknown to him, Chelsea actually didn't have cooking him dinner in mind. She felt that he wanted her to express her gratitude materially.

Now that they supposedly reached an agreement, they stopped talking about it and went on to the main subject matter.

"I heard Luka is going to defend you by putting out an official statement stating the company's standpoint on the matter," Edmund suddenly said.

While Chelsea was wondering how he heard about that, he added, "Well, I have a suggestion for you. Don't leave everything to Luka to handle. You can defend yourself on Twitter."

Chelsea was skeptical. "I should defend myself on Twitter? Will it work?"

Edmund explained with certainty, "Trust me, it will. There's only a little that Luka can do to help you. After all, you aren't the only employee in his company. If he puts out a statement and fights tooth and nail with the public, it may tarnish the image of the company. This would affect the interests of other employees. In the long run, your haters would increase. Do you get me?"

Chelsea nodded slightly. She had to admit that he had a point there. This idea never crossed her mind before.

She murmured, "Yeah, I understand. It sounds good."

Chelsea hadn't wanted Luka to defend her in the first place. She felt that he was helping her too much, so it would be practically impossible to pay him back. She also didn't want to be a burden to him.

Like the competitive person that Edmund was, he didn't show all his cards now. His suggestion wasn't only because he was afraid that more people would turn against Chelsea. He actually wanted to get in the way of Luka, who he suspected to be doing everything to get close to his ex-wife.

Edmund suspected that Chelsea would feel more indebted to Luka, so she would offer to repay him.

He feared that Luka would seize the opportunity to ask her out. Having known the kind of person that Chelsea was, Edmund feared that she would agree because she didn't want to hurt Luka's feelings.

As a man, Edmund could see through Luka's mind. What Luka was doing was exactly how a man behaved when he was interested in a woman. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Burning with the zeal to disrupt Luka's plans, Edmund asked Chelsea, "Do you have a personal Twitter account?"

"Ermm... Yes," Chelsea answered with difficulty.

She did have a Twitter account, but most of the tweets she made were about Edmund.

The contents there had to do with her constantly changing feelings—the joy and tears that came from loving him while they were married.

Her page was like an online diary at that time.

The account was practically anonymous. She never posted her pictures or tagged any real people on her posts. No one knew who she truly was, so she was rest assured that her tweets would never be traced to her.

Since she was a scriptwriter, she occasionally made some movies and TV plays reviews. She had a way with words, so several people liked the kind of content she put out. Her articles won her more followers and loyal fans.

Her followers were only about three thousand.

The last tweet she made was over a year old. It came when she got divorced.

It went thus, "Three years of marriage is over just like that. It's as if I just woke up from an unrealistic dream. My heart is broken into a thousand pieces. But like a phoenix, I would rise from the ashes. Life goes on."

Many comments trooped under this tweet as soon as she made it. All of them were positive and encouraging.

"Chin up, dearie. A failed marriage is not the end of the road. Your life would get better and you might just meet the right man for you in the future."

"I can tell that you are a gentle and virtuous woman. The divorce is his loss, not yours. He would realize that he was too stupid not to have cherished you."

"You would make a good writer, Miss. It's such a pity that you didn't take it up as a career full-time. I hope now that you are starting a new life, you will pursue a career in that field. I'm personally rooting for you."

Chelsea shed some tears after reading the comments. It warmed her heart that total strangers were this supportive. She planned on deleting her old tweets about love later on. She didn't want others to find out about her past and make a fuss about it.
