Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 380

Another few days had passed and Old Fourth Cecil called her multiple times at a stretch, pressing her for the money.

Lucy was almost driven up the wall of insanity. There were times she wanted to give up and let him expose her!

Despite her love for acting and desire to become an actress, she rather gave it all up. She did not care if she lost everything she owned!

However, Lucy was distraught at the thought of her mother in the hospital. Any thoughts of mutual destruction were instantly suppressed.

She could not let anything happen to her!

What about Mother if she collapsed?

Just then, Lucy received a call from Susan.

Susan was blunt and was not the type to beat around the bush in speech and action.

Once the call was connected, she went straight to the point. “Do you really need money?”

Lucy paused before nodding. “Yes.”

“Okay, there’s a showcase at Century City tomorrow night. A few artists under my friend will be going but they’re from other companies, not Xinghui.

“I’ve informed them and they’d be taking you under their wing. The money isn’t much but you'll make around a hundred thousand. However, you’d need to have dinner with them after the event. Is that okay with you?”

Lucy quickly answered, “No problem.”

“Okay, I’ll let you know more tomorrow.”

“Sure, thank you, Sister Susan.”

Lucy finally heaved a sigh of relief after hanging up.

Her mind was at rest at the thought that she could earn some money after tomorrow.

The next day, Lucy applied for a day off with the filming crew and went to the site.

Upon her arrival, she realized it was a car show event. All attending models were either unknown independent models or D-listed actresses.

These people were artists in sugar coated terms but at the risk of sounding cold, they were simply escorts drifting in the sidelines of the entertainment industry.

These models were mostly beautiful and possessed a hot body, albeit lacking a chance. Although a car show like this was not as innocent as it seemed, they still scrambled and flocked for this fighting chance.

Susan was not a well-known manager. She only applied to join Xinghui after a few talents under her had something to show for.

Among the several artists under her management, only Lucy was a presentable B-listed actress while the rest were newbies.

Lucy did not know the relationship between these models and Susan but she had guessed that they were acquainted.

Susan said it herself. It was an event her friend partook in. These models may not be of repute but participating in the car show granted them an opportunity.

After all, countless gorgeous girls were flocking into the entertainment business. With the increasing numbers, the ability to seize an opportunity was good enough.

Lucy was not that willing to partake in such an activity but she was left without a choice to meet this urgent need.

After a change of wardrobe backstage, she went out together with everyone.

The job scope was simple. Only, due to Lucy’s height at 1.63cm, she might not be the shortest among regular girls but it was unsightly between the models.

Hence, the wardrobe stylist handed her a pair of 12cm heels after makeup. The heel was sharp and thin.

Her feet were aching to the point of numbness from wearing the heels all afternoon.

Nevertheless, she felt the pain was worth it with her mind focused on the hundred thousand bucks, seeing her through the ordeal through gritted teeth.

It had never occurred to her that after standing all afternoon, a staff member walked in from outside and uttered with a clap, “Don’t leave yet, everyone. President Clement and President Hilton organized a dinner party later. Let’s go have a meal together.”
