Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 390

The people in the photos were not just anybody, but they were Yanni Lawson and Lucy Katz. The pictures were taken when they were in the bar the last time.

As soon as the photos were leaked, a commotion ensued online.

Fragments of Lucy’s past had been dug up as well.

For example, her close relationship with a certain actor in a show was suspected to be a publicity stunt. Besides, the public questioned whether she had tried to scale the ranks via immoral means when she discussed the script with her director at midnight.

At any rate, any sort of suspicious information related to Lucy began to surface on the web, as if someone had planned for this to happen all along.

Although the show that Lucy was currently starred in was a historical drama, it originally started off as a hot IP. Moreover, the director was the famous and talented Yuri Lagovsky, so there was much hype surrounding the show.

People within the entertainment industry and the netizens were equally excited about the script — which was completed a year ago, the casting and the filming.

The show even received an award at the beginning of the year for the most anticipated show.

This proved how popular the show was on the internet.

Aside from the female lead, Lucy, who was the second female lead with ample screen time, was bombarded with this scandal. Thus, she was ridiculed by netizens.

The photos’ captions were crude as well.

Moreover, the hot topic list had accumulated a bunch of angry comments.

“I thought she relied on her talent to score this role but no, apparently she went on the casting couch!”

“This hotel looks familiar, isn’t it the place notorious for working girls? I heard that many of those dealings take place there. Why would she head to such a place?”

“Perhaps she’s a regular there. She’s just good at putting on an innocent front.”

“The man looks like the boss of Yesheng! It’s a huge entertainment company. I don’t think these two are in a relationship, right?”

“Judging by their gestures, they must be.”

“Disgusting! Wasn’t she the same person who preached about how hardworking and diligent she is? I now see how diligent she is!”

“She’s so shameless. People like her should be kicked out of showbiz!”

“Yes! Kick her out of showbiz!”

Soon, #KickLucyKatzOutOfShowbiz# was trending on the hot topics.

Meanwhile, Lucy was still blissfully ignorant of what was happening online as she slept soundly in her bed.

She finally had a few days off. In spite of the many things that frustrated her, she still took the time to pamper herself. After all, life still had to go on, no matter her mood.

Lucy was optimistic, yet on the other hand, her manager, Susan Reed, panicked.

Susan could not contact Lucy as the latter’s phone was on silent mode.

In the end, she had to contact Hannah.

However, Hannah could not be reached either. Susan then recalled that Lucy was a friend of Nell’s, so she phoned Nell.

Coincidentally, Nell was in Gideon’s office when she received the call.

There was someone else in Gideon’s office. It was Joel.

Joel seldom came here, but since he happened to be free, he decided to drop by to have a look.

Unexpectedly, he came to hear about this alarming piece of news.

He then said that Nell did not have to trouble herself personally with this insignificant issue.

He had nothing to do, so he could help.

Upon noticing his reaction, Nell quipped with an amused expression, “Joel, why do I feel that you’re always so enthusiastic when it has something to do with Lucy? Do you fancy her?”

Joel was embarrassed when his true feelings were exposed.

Still, he did not deny it.

Suddenly, the call was cut off.

Janet did not mention what had happened and whether Nell had to call the police. The line simply broke off.

Nell stared at the black phone screen and panicked.

She immediately thought of Liam.

She wanted to call him when she remembered that she did not save his number as she was not on friendly terms with him.

At this moment, it would be too late to look up his number.

Moreover, she did not trust Liam completely. That man had betrayed Jan once. Who knew if he would betray her again?

In fact, he might be the one putting Jan in danger now!

Nell felt even more distressed.

At last, she sent a quick text to Gideon and drove to the hotel.

Musi Hotel was not far away, so she arrived at her destination in around ten minutes.

After Nell entered the hotel, she got into the elevator to get to the 15th floor and soon, she had found Janet’s room, Room 5003.

She placed her hand on the handle and was considering whether she should knock on the door or summon a hotel attendant before a sharp pain emerged in her neck. She felt an electric shock in her body before she blacked out and fell into unconsciousness.

In the meantime, Gideon disembarked from the plane.

After getting off, he turned on his phone and saw the message from Nell.

He was shocked when he read the text.

He immediately called her back, and it took five or six rings before the call was connected.

However, what he heard on the other side of the phone disturbed him greatly.
