Mr. Nelson Winning His Ex-wife's Heart

The meeting finally began. Edmund was seated at the head of the table. His mind wasn't on what the first person to speak was saying. After staring blankly at the table for a while, he looked up. His eyes fell on Chelsea's beautiful neck.

An image of him kissing her neck popped up in his head. He suddenly felt thirsty. He cleared his throat, grabbed the bottle of water in front of him, and gulped down half of its content.

His phone suddenly vibrated on the table. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was a message from Yusuf.

The message contained only three wink emojis.

It was obvious that Yusuf was teasing him for preventing Chelsea from going on the blind date.

Edmund scoffed and rolled his eyes. He didn't respond to the message. Why was Yusuf such a gossip?

How did he spoil Chelsea's plan? What was more important? Her work, or the blind date? Humph!

The meeting was in full swing at this time. They discussed the change of the director before going on to deliberate on the perfect actor to play the male protagonist role.

The others mentioned a ton of great actors, but Chelsea had a different actor in mind. She couldn't think of any other actor to play the role well.

Edmund's eyes were on Chelsea as she watched everyone contribute without uttering a word. He sensed that she had a suggestion to make. So, he tapped his fingers on the table and asked, "You haven't said a word, Chelsea. Which actor do you think is the most suitable for the role?"

"Huh?" Chelsea was a little startled. But she put on a calm expression and replied, "Well, I think Keith Rivera is the perfect actor for this role."

Keith was an actor who was as famous as Luka in the past. He had won many awards. People regarded him as one of the greatest actors of all time.

Although people often compared him to Luka, he was younger. He was just thirty-two years old.

Keith had been keeping a low profile lately. While Luka set up an entertainment company, Keith took up a job as an acting lecturer in a film academy.

His name was still on the lips of many drama fans even though he had only starred in a couple of plays in the past two years. It was hard to convince him to star in any play.

Now that Chelsea mentioned his name, everyone present couldn't help but wonder why she chose him.

Noticing the questioning gazes from her colleagues, Chelsea explained, "I think Keith is the most suitable for this role because he's not only handsome and charming, but there's also a strong and domineering vibe to him. He looks peaceful at first glance. Upon a closer look, one can't help but figure that there's more to him than meets the eye. His natural attitude is so similar to that of the male protagonist."

Edmund was speechless.

The way Chelsea spoke about Keith with sparkling eyes made him uncomfortable. He was jealous that she could describe another man like that in his presence.

He suddenly wanted to know what kind of words Chelsea would use to describe him. Would she also speak with so much zest? Maybe. After all, she had loved him so much.

"Yes, Keith is suitable for this role. Chelsea has good taste. What do you all think?" Luka seconded the notion without hesitation.

The others reasoned that Keith was also perfect for the role. However, there was a but.

"Keith is good, but he had high requirements concerning scripts tendered to him. How are we sure that he would agree to star in this play?" a member of the crew queried.

"Not to worry, he will agree. I'm confident that our script will fit his requirements. I'll speak to him myself!" Luka said confidently.

He then turned to Edmund and said, "Mr. Nelson, if you have any connections with Keith, please persuade him too."
