Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

Chapter 185

Chapter 185

Chelsea had known Luka for four years, since she'd first gotten the position of scriptwriter at Peak Entertainment.

She didn't know much about Luka in her first three years of working part-time. At that time, she had studied scriptwriting under Eugene's guidance and was close to him only.

However, that didn't affect her understanding of Luka. He had been in this circle for years and had never been involved in any scandalous issues. He was trustworthy.

Judging by what Luka said, his parents were easy to get along with.

Chelsea found them to be kind after meeting them.

Although his mother, Ella Pierce, looked emaciated because of illness, she wore a warm smile.

Lifting her hand to hold Chelsea's with difficulty, she said, "At first glance, I knew you were a gentle and kind young lady."

Chelsea, who had been mocked by Alena countless times, felt warmth at Ella's praise.

Smiling, she replied, "Thank you for the compliment."

Ella said, "You're a good match for Luka. My age has made me a good judge of people."

Chelsea sat at the edge of Ella's bed. They both conversed with each other in a low voice.

Ella asked, "How did you and Luka get together?"

Chelsea and Luka had previously discussed this topic, so she responded naturally, "We've known each other for several years. We used to be friends. However, we didn't get together until I returned from my trip abroad."

Ella nodded in understanding. She took Chelsea's hands and said sadly, "Luka has never had a girlfriend. This has led to many rumors claiming he doesn't like women. Those rumors made me uncomfortable."

Chelsea could understand how Ella felt. Most of the male stars the same age as Luka had gotten married and had children, but Luka hadn't been involved in any romantic relationship. This brought about the rumors saying he liked men.

When had the fact that a man kept his chastity become a point to be gossiped about by others?

"Well, now that you are with him, I have nothing to worry about." Ella's haggard face seemed to regain its vigor when she said these words. She was really happy.

Taking Ella's frail health into consideration, Chelsea took her leave.

After Luka had sent Chelsea back to the hotel, she asked him, "Why don't you take your mother for treatment in Vertoak?"

"It's pointless," Luka said sadly, shaking his head. "The doctor said she has only two months to live. I

don't want to bother her anymore."

Chelsea's eyes suddenly became teary when she heard this. "You can spend more time with her," she said.

Seeing her sad, Luka comforted her gently, "It's okay. She's been in poor health these days. We've prepared ourselves mentally for her demise. Although we are sad, we will survive this."

Chelsea nodded slightly.

She had experienced her mother's death. She was young at the time, but it felt like her whole world had collapsed around her.

She still had regrets till now. Her adoptive mother had been kind to her, but she had died before Chelsea could repay her kindness.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Luka's face, and he asked, "Have you ever thought about searching your biological father?"

Luka was aware that her biological mother had died not long after she was born, but the whereabouts of her biological father were unknown.

Chelsea shook her head and said, "There are so many people in the world. Where would I even start from?"

When she first found out that Hilton was not her biological father, she wanted to find her biological father.

But she had neither the money, nor the capacity, nor any connections.

Later, however, she had gotten married to Edmund, who had both the power and the connection, but she didn't dare tell him her secret because of how he treated her.

Luka gently caressed her face and said, "Don't be discouraged. I'll help you find him."

"Thank you," Chelsea said, surprised. She was touched.

Luka replied with a smile, "Don't mention it. Get some rest. I'll go to the hospital."

After a moment's thought, she stopped Luka and asked, "Does your mother have any favorite dishes? I want to cook them for her."

Luka's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Of course. It's the least I can do to make her happy."

Luka and his mother had treated her kindly. She had to repay that kindness.

Luka thought for a while and said, "My mother is not going to be in the hospital much longer. She should be discharged in two days. You can come over to my house to cook. It'll be more convenient."

"Okay," Chelsea agreed. She then saw Luka off.

When she returned to her room, she made herself a cup of coffee, and then took out her laptop to

continue working.

However, before she could write a few words, she was interrupted by the phone. It was Zuri. Laughing gleefully at the other end of the phone, she said, "You and Mr. Pierce are the trending topic now."

Chelsea was surprised. "Really?"

She had just been to the hospital with Luka. How could they have been photographed so soon?

Zuri replied, "Yes. Someone photographed Mr. Pierce holding your hand at the hospital."

Before Chelsea could utter a word, Zuri continued, "Are you guys really together? You even hold hands now!"
