Bill was good at reading people’s mind since he had been working for Jack for a long time. He was sure that Lucy was wronged.
He had to figure it out since Jack had told him to take care of her.
Besides, seeing the face of Lucy, he was eager to help her.
“Do you have any troubles? I am here, so you can tell me, maybe I can help.”
“No… It’s so late that you should go…” Lucy wanted to shut the door.
Bill blocked her and said, “I will be waiting in front of the door until you tell me or Jack would rebuke me useless when I go back.”
Lucy didn’t have a choice when hearing what he said.
“Come in.”
Lucy had a cough and then made Bill a cup of tea. Then she told him that she was asked to see Chen and her brother was under their control.
“Chen doesn’t want Anna attend the Nancy Show because she is jealous. She threatened me because I am close to Anna. She wants to make use of me to let Anna tell the truth… I don’t know what should I should.”
“They went too far! How could they use such a dirty trick!”
“I don’t know what to do so that I told you all about that. But never let Anna know. I don’t want to see she is in a dilemma because of me.” She begged Bill with a pathetic look.
“But… but you can’t just subdue yourself to Chen.” Bill thought Lucy was too wronged that she was willing to bear that in mind but not saying it out.
He felt a bit sorry for her…
“I am going to call the police.” That was all she could come to her mind.
“Let me help you investigate where is your brother. Don’t worry, you can handle this.”
Lucy nodded her head though what she did might be silly, she could protect Anna as much as possible. But she had to be wronged. She was afraid that once she pissed Chen off, Chen would hurt her brother.
“We could do nothing but to handle it. Have a break, don’t worry too much.” Bill comforted her. “My phone is always on. If you don’t want to tell Jack and Anna, call me anytime you want.”
“Thank you…”
Lucy was touched and nodded.
Actually, both of them knew that if Lucy told Jack and Anna what Chen did to her, they would of course help her because Lucy wasn’t just an assistant to Anna.
Anna wouldn’t leave Lucy alone and let her be threatened and bullied.
“The Nancy Show will begin tomorrow night, and I will try to hold Chen. You should tell John that not to let Anna bring her phone with her. As long as she doesn’t know about that, she would finish the show smoothly.”
Lucy wanted to protect Anna instead of being protected by her.
Bill left Lucy’s apartment, and told Anna that she was safe and sound. Then he called John as Lucy told him to do.
Then he asked a few paparazzi to keep an eye on Chen and Kevin. And he hoped that he could find some clues of what they were doing to Lucy. Even though they failed to find her brother, they could have evidence in hand.
Chen was always prudent and careful but now she used such a vicious way that she must afraid that Anna would ruin her life and fame.
But Chen was challenging Anna’s bottom line.
When John was about to take Anna to the Nancy show, Winne was asked to go to Chen’s office.
“I will arrange you a new assistant, Lucy.” Chen said it seriously and she didn’t give any choice for Winnie to say no.
“She is Anna’s assistant, isn’t she?” Winne was confused and didn’t get it.
Chen nodded and knocked the desk, “Anna is not that busy so I ask Lucy to help you. You can ask her to do anything you want.”
