Chapter 165
Diane gave a sneer of disgust. "Luka is taking her with him. It looks like she is his favorite scriptwriter."
Sonya curled her lips in disdain. "Perhaps she has also climbed into Luka's bed. She seems to know these dirty tricks very well."
With a snort, she went on, "I'll ask her about it."
Diane quickly pulled her back and said, "Don't be silly."
With confusion etched on her face, Sonya asked, "Why?"
"Don't risk being mean to her. It will only lead your brother to be angry with you." Diane seemed genuinely concerned about Sonya. Sonya was moved, but she still had difficulty suppressing her urge to annoy Chelsea.
Chelsea, on the other hand, was least bothered about these two ladies. She wouldn't take them seriously. They were no one to her.
Luka introduced her to many producers, famous directors and senior scriptwriters. Chelsea was preoccupied with social engagements, so she didn't see the icy glare with which Diane and Sonya were looking at her.
After a round of introduction and greetings, Luka pulled Chelsea aside so that the two of them could relax for a bit.
Lowering his eyes to look at Chelsea, Luka said gently, "You are going to make a name for yourself. I'm
sure that in a while Peak Entertainment won't be the best choice for you. When you become an independent scriptwriter, these connections will come in handy."
Chelsea stared at Luka in surprise. She hadn't expected he would want her to become an independent scriptwriter in the future.
Although she devoted herself to her career, this was something she had never considered. To begin with, this wouldn't fit her personality.
And then, she wasn't an ambitious person.
But most importantly, it was Luka who gave her an opportunity to become a full-time scriptwriter and sent her abroad for further education. She would always be grateful to him.
She swore to herself that she would do everything she could to help Peak Entertainment.
Luka had read her mind and said with a smile, "I know you don't plan to become independent, but I've been in this circle for so many years that I know that will be the best for you."
Given Chelsea's talent, she would have a bright future. He would definitely not keep her confined to Peak Entertainment.
Chelsea was touched by his words. Her eyes were glistening with tears. "Thank you," she said.
As the two stood staring at each other, Yusuf clicked a picture of them.
He sent it to Edmund and then wrote, "Will you come? If you won't, I am afraid Luka will take her. Just
look at them! He must have cast a spell on her. She looks so moved."
Yusuf knew he was exaggerating a little too much. But if things went on like this, there was a high chance that Luka and Chelsea would end up together.
And then his dear friend Edmund would have to wallow up in self-pity and regret.
About twenty minutes later, Edmund, clad in a black suit, arrived at the dinner party. His expression was icy cold.
His elegance could be seen in his gait. Everyone knew him as the most popular business man in Vertoak. His appearance caused quite a stir.
Sonya was flirting with men whereas Diane was chit-chatting with a group of ladies.
When they saw Edmund, one of them turned to Diane and asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that Mr. Nelson wouldn't come today?"
Edmund's sudden appearance had indeed shocked Diane.
She couldn't help but wonder why he was here. Did he change his mind because he came to know Chelsea was here? This was a thought that set her on fire!
She was quite certain he wouldn't pay her any attention. It would indeed be embarrassing for her in front of all these people!
