Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 556

Lucy Katz was never an actress that was picky and troublesome. She understood that a screenwriter’s job was not easy. Basically, she would not change the script unless there was something that went against her principles.

She only had a slight concern about one thing.

As she thought about it, she asked, “My previous film was of a suspense genre. If I were to act in this suspense movie, do you think it’ll be too repetitive?”

Evidently, Director Coombs had also thought about this.

He explained in a gentle tone, ”It’s different. First of all, the previous project was a series and this is a movie, so it’s already different by nature.

“Moreover, even though this movie’s storyline is aligned with the suspense genre, it has a more comedic style. So strictly speaking, this movie is a comedy. Compared to your previous show, their styles are worlds apart, so there won’t be a risk of repetition.”

Lucy heard this and felt relieved. She then nodded her head.

“I understand. I’ll let my manager know later.”

Director Coombs agreed and everyone started discussing the script.

Simon Wilburn and Lucy Katz continuously partnered in 2 films, so their relationship needed to be managed accordingly.

During this dinner party, everyone could tell that Simon was extra caring towards Lucy, even to the point of being attentive.

Lucy only treated his attentiveness as a friendly gesture as they were partners, so she did not overthink it.

The few people at the party were all open-minded, since they had finalized the male and female leads, they were ecstatic and naturally had a few more drinks.

Lucy was influenced by their happiness and felt more cheerful, so she also drank quite a lot at the party.

Her alcohol tolerance was not particularly good, so by the time the party was over, she was tipsy.

Director Coombs saw her condition and was worried about letting her leave alone, so he sent for her assistant to come over.

Lucy’s assistant, Carina, was in the private room next door. Once she heard that Lucy was drunk, she immediately went over to pick her up.

When she got there, Simon Wilburn was also in the room.

Carina was shocked. No wonder they found it weird that at today’s closing ceremony, the director, male and female leads all disappeared midway.

They were all here.

At this moment, Director Coombs had already left with the investors and screenwriter, so only Simon and Lucy remained in the private room.

Lucy’s drunken attitude was manageable.

She would not go crazy and would not do anything out of place, she just leaned against the sofa and napped quietly.

When Carina came into the room, she saw that Lucy was lying on the sofa with her eyes closed and cheeks red.

Simon Wilburn was sitting beside her.

“Sister Lucy is...”

They were on the same set for 3 months and Carina was always by Lucy’s side, so Simon recognized her.

He looked up at Carina and waved her over. He then explained, “Lucy’s a bit tipsy so she fell asleep. Can you drive? If you can, I can help you to carry her down.”

Carina heard this and shook her head.

“No, it’s okay! I can help Lucy down myself.”

Simon laughed and said, “I think you’re underestimating a drunk person’s weight. Even though she’s not heavy, it’s not easy to carry a drunk person by yourself. You’re so tiny, I’m just afraid that not only can you not carry her, you might even fall too. That would be an ugly situation.”

“Lucy Katz! What’s going on? I thought you and Simon attended the closing ceremony last night? How did anyone take this picture of you both?”

Lucy was still in a daze as she still had yet to fully awaken. She was puzzled and let out a questioning sound.

She asked, “Huh? What picture?”

On the opposite side, Susan noticed that Lucy was still sleeping at this hour. The internet was in a frenzy, yet as the main subject of discussion, Lucy was still indifferent. It gave her the feeling of when the emperor was not bothered, but his eunuchs were worried to death.

Susan yelled angrily, “You still dare to ask me what picture? Just go online and look it up! After you’ve seen it for yourself, call me back and explain to me what happened last night.”

As she said this, she hung up the phone.

Now, Lucy was finally awake.

She frowned and sat up on the bed. She then went on Weibo using her phone.

When she was on the “Hot Topics” page, she saw that her name was the number one most searched item.

Lucy was stunned and clicked into it. She then saw the gossip about Simon Wilburn and herself.

The title was very stimulating. It read, “Popular Actress Lucy Katz Rendezvous with Rock and Roll Prince Simon Wilburn, Suspected Romance Confirmed”.

Lucy was shocked and continued scrolling.

There was a picture of them from yesterday at the parking lot when Simon helped her to the car. At that time, she was drunk but was still somewhat conscious.

Even though she did not remember much, she knew that nothing was going on between Simon and herself. He only saw that she drank too much and was nice enough to help her to the car.

Who would have thought that someone would capture such a simple scene and made up this gossip?
