Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 500

Lucy nodded weakly, no longer serious as she was thinking just now.

Lucy felt that her whole body was hot while lying on the bed.

She knew that she would not get sick easily, but she also remembered what she had done yesterday.

Lucy went straight to sleep after being under the cold water for so long without drying her hair.

Who would not catch a cold in such a situation?

However, she could not say that she was wrong. After all, she was really in a bad state the night before.

Lucy felt a little dizzy when she thought of that. She then closed her eyes and was ready to sleep.

Not sure how long it took for Lucy to recover and wake up.

She opened her eyes and found Susan beside the bed, in a dilemma.

“Sister Susan, why is he here?” Lucy frowned in dismay with her husky voice.

“I…” Susan wanted to speak up but could not say anything.

Lucy could only look at Joel.

She looked at Joel coldly, and said in a solemn voice, “Joel, what do you want?!”

Joel smiled while looking at Lucy and his voice was full of affection.

“Of course I’m here to see my fiancée.”

Joel’s words frightened Lucy.

She immediately sat up regardless of her ill condition. She coughed and questioned Joel. “What are you talking about? I’m Mace’s fiancée. I’ll marry him in the future! I’ll tell you plainly, I can’t marry you and I will never marry you.”

Joel’s face darkened after hearing Lucy’s words.

He was not angry. Instead, he sat by the bed, tucked the quilt for her, and said nicely, “Lucy, stop pretending. You love me, right?”

She felt very uncomfortable that Joel was able to see through her mind, especially at this awkward moment.

At the same time, not only was she not prepared, but she also struggled to face him and was smitten by deep remorse.

All kinds of emotions were mixed and caused Lucy to be mad.

She did not want to expose all her vulnerabilities and weaknesses in front of Joel, but he…

“Get out,” Lucy said coldly with a little anger.

She stared at Joel with hatred and smiled cruelly. “Why do you think I love you? Was it just because of the incident yesterday?”

Lucy was not a fool. She could probably guess what was on his mind.

She realized that what she did was wrong after she saw Joel nodding his head.

Lucy should not be so close to him, at least not so bold in helping him, or else, he would misunderstand and cause her more troubles.

She would prefer to make him feel uncomfortable, and make him stay away from her rather than letting him see her in this state.

Firstly, it was because she hated him. Secondly, she could still console herself that he did not understand her at all.

Lucy was feeling very upset too, but she did not want him to get close to herself. She could only disguise it, hurt him and herself as well.

Lucy endured the heartache and leaned forward with a smile. She lay on Joel’s shoulder and gently kissed him on his lips.

The kiss was a one-touch one, without a hint of affection and warmth.

However, Joel felt a little sick.

The Lucy he loved was not such a person and never had been. Hence, he could not accept it when she did that.

It did not matter whether she was real or fake at this moment.

If it was true, he would have loved the wrong person.

If it was false, it was even more unacceptable.

How much more embarrassed could he get? He even let Lucy turn him down this way.

This made Joel feel insulted.

He was also a proud man; he had his pride.

It was for this reason that he could not accept seeing Lucy like this.

Joel pushed her away as she was about to say something.

He rose and looked down at Lucy, with deep pain in his eyes. He then smiled sarcastically. “Since Miss Katz said so, then I don’t have to stay. I have the resources, but I don’t want to give it to people like you.”
