"Stomachache?" Edmund asked with a sneer. Her excuse was miserable, really.
Fay explained on Chelsea's behalf. "I don't think she's lying. A woman's period can get really uncomfortable." Chelsea's voice sounded very weak on the phone. And Fay was aware that some women suffered from dysmenorrhea, being a woman herself. Chelsea's was a stomachache, hers was a headache. Always, when her period came, Fay would have a headache and would be unable to get through without taking painkillers.
A frown formed on Edmund's face. Why hadn't he been aware that Chelsea used to feel uncomfortable during her period? He had never heard of any physical discomfort from Chelsea in the past three years, besides an occasional cold. He realized that he hadn't gotten to know Chelsea properly before. He then said, "Ask Luka to come with me."
Fay nodded, thinking of what occurred last night. She added, "During dinner together last night, Chelsea said that Mr. Pierce confessed his love to her."
Edmund felt he heard wrong. "What? Confess?" He was aware Luka had a crush on Chelsea, but he didn't expect that Luka would actually reveal his affections.
"According to Chelsea, it was the day Hilton and his son caused a ruckus at Peak Entertainment."
"He's so old! Why would he pursue Chelsea?" Edmund sharply complained. His tone tinged with disgust. "Don't call him. I'll head there myself." Thinking of Luka annoyed Edmund. He'd probably end up beating Luka when they met, so it'd be better they didn't meet.
"Alright," Fay responded, holding back her laughter. Fay knew why Edmund changed his mind all of a sudden and didn't plan to go with Luka. He was definitely irritated that Luka had confessed his love to Chelsea.
Chelsea did actually have a stomachache during her period, but it was not to the extent that she could not get out of bed. She had exaggerated and used that as an excuse purposefully to not go with Edmund. However, after thinking a while, she called Luka and informed him Edmund was going to see Keith. Chelsea wasn't clear on if Edmund would invite Luka to go with him, but she felt it would be better if Luka went with Edmund since she had shared a lot with Luka when she was writing the script recently. If Luka went there as well, he could explain the content of her script to Keith better.
Consequently, half an hour later, Edmund and Fay found Luka at the entrance of Keith's studio. Edmund's face darkened instantly.
In contrast, Luka said calmly, "Chelsea told me you would like to see Keith, and she told me to come with you. We talked every day while she was writing the script, so I have more knowledge of the plot."
They talked every day? Edmund eyed Luka, and his face darkened again. He walked into Keith's office first, without saying a word. Luka went in after him.
Keith stared at the two people who had purposefully distanced themselves from each other in the office. He asked with doubt in his voice, "Mr. Nelson, Luka, are you two certain you're partners?"
Keith was not to blame for asking such a question. The atmosphere between Luka and Edmund was so preternatural that it didn't appear they could cooperate to make a TV series at all. They rather looked like enemies about to fight at any moment. To be precise, only Edmund was acting strange. Luka was
very calm. He was aware of the reason Edmund became so hostile to him all of a sudden. It was probably because of Chelsea.
