Chapter 85 An Extremely Embarrassing Scene
Chapter 85 An Extremely Embarrassing Scene
It was obvious that Purple's assistant was pertaining to Chelsea. Everyone present knew that. Zuri was so annoyed that she began to turn around to give Purple's assistant a piece of her mind.
Chelsea stopped her and shook her head at her. The last thing she wanted right now was for her best friend to be impulsive.
Whether it was in the writing world or in the scriptwriting world, Purple didn't have a good reputation. She was too fond of making trouble for others.
When she was a writer, whenever there was another author who took the number-one place on the bestsellers list from her, she never failed to make that author's life miserable.
Later, Purple entered the scriptwriting world. As a new player in the game, she didn't dare to go against other senior scriptwriters publicly, but she played a lot of tricks. One of those tricks involved employing online rumormongers to slander other scriptwriters.
Purple was the kind of person who couldn't stand seeing others happy and successful, and she was willing to kill any spark of joy that didn't belong to her. Chelsea thought it was a bad idea to provoke such a hateful woman.
After Chelsea and Zuri entered the elevator, Zuri snapped, "Purple is just jealous because Mr. Pierce chose you to write the script for The Crown. Purple hasn't written anything good since that play Mr. Piece himself starred in. If she doesn't write another stage hit soon, Mr. Pierce will definitely fire her."
Zuri disliked evil people, so she was particularly sharp-tongued at the moment.
Zuri knew better than anyone else how hard Chelsea had been working during the past few years.
Chelsea had been working on the detailed outline of her script for four years. She even wrote biographies for each of her characters. She was a brilliant scriptwriter, and she got to where she was right now through her own painstaking efforts.
Purple not only changed her profession to become a scriptwriter but also became well-known overnight. However, the quality of her scripts was getting worse and worse, and the content was mediocre at best.
Chelsea told Zuri, "Don't lower yourself to their level. We just need to do our job well. It doesn't matter if we work silently because eventually, our success will make all the right noises." NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Feeling helpless, Zuri replied, "You are just too kind, my friend."
Chelsea smiled and didn't say anything. Zuri shook Chelsea's arm and declared, "Kindness to the bad is cruelty to yourself, do you understand?"
"I do. Yes, I suppose you're right," Chelsea nodded.
Soon, the elevator doors whirred open, and Chelsea and Zuri walked out, laughing.
Zuri cheered Chelsea on. "Come on! Okay?"
Chelsea joked, "The last time you encouraged me like this was when I had sex with Edmund for the
first time."
After saying that, Chelsea looked up and saw Edmund and Fay standing in the corridor not far away.
Judging from the suppressed smile on Fay's face, Chelsea came to the horrifying realization that they heard what she just said.
Chelsea wanted to faint on the spot.
What an embarrassing scene!
Her ex-husband heard her dirty joke about him.
She used to be so dignified and serious in front of Edmund, and she even blushed when she slept with him.
Chelsea felt her cheeks and ears burn, but she couldn't turn back now. She had to bite the bullet and proceed forward.
She didn't care about her image in front of Edmund now anyway.
Thinking of this, Chelsea finally calmed down and walked up to Edmund.
She greeted the two politely, "Hello, Mr. Nelson. Hello, Fay."
There was a hint of disbelief in Edmund's eyes. He was shocked by his ex-wife's words.
But when Chelsea approached, the shock in Edmund's eyes changed to surprise because of her appearance today.
Edmund knew that Chelsea was going to go on a date this noon. So, this was what she was going to wear for the date?
Why was she all dolled up like that? Was she so eager to get married again?
Thinking of this, Edmund's face darkened, and he looked extremely unhappy.
