Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 491

Lucy Katz lacked money.

Thinking about her sick mother and gambling addict stepfather, no matter how excited Susan Reed, her manager that was standing behind her was, her eyes still filled with sorrow.

Lucy was tight-lipped about her family matters that even her close friend-cum-manager, Susan, was not aware of it.

Seeing that Lucy was depressed, Susan stood behind her and held the woman who was leaning against the chair and staring at her reflection. Susan was puzzled and asked, “Lucy, it was your dream to attend this party. You should be ecstatic, but why...”

Lucy reluctantly curled up her lips and smiled feebly.

“It’s nothing. I’m just a little tired because I didn’t sleep well.”

Susan looked at her worriedly and sighed.

“You should feel tired by now.”

She knew how desperate Lucy was.

Ever since Lucy entered the entertainment industry, even when she was a small no-name actress, she had already started working endlessly.

Lucy would accept any project no matter how tough it was or how high the requirements were as long as it was quality and high-end work.

Susan had once asked her why she was so hardworking.

Lucy only said that if she wanted to succeed, she could not help but work hard. Moreover, low quality work would only waste her energy, so she would rather work harder than put a dent in her career.

All these years, Susan stood by Lucy’s side and saw her transform bit by bit, from a no-name small actress into a first-class superstar that she was today.

Whether it was then or now, Lucy’s “Miss Eager” ways still never changed.

Susan was curious about why Lucy was that eager to earn so much money albeit maintaining a frugal lifestyle.

Lucy smiled and did not comment. She just brushed it off and said that she did not like the extravagant lifestyle.

Susan found it questionable but did not probe further.

Who did not have a secret?

Now when Susan saw Lucy’s exhausted face, she hesitated and did not persuade Lucy to rest.

It had been so many years that if Lucy wanted to rest, she would’ve rested long ago.

Susan gave it a thought.

What she did not know was that Lucy did feel like resting.

Who would not want to relax and laze around at home?

Her mom’s hospital bills were still manageable. If it were not for her blood-sucking stepfather, Lucy would not want to work so hard.

Soon, Lucy’s makeup was done.

She picked a silver tube top dress and matched it with an aquamarine hairpin. Her neck was adorned with a delicate silver necklace and she wore a pair of crystal-looking high heels. She then elegantly got into her sports car.

The whole way there, Lucy was expressionless while she stared at the colorful nightlights before her. She had yet to rest today.

It was not that she did not want to rest. It was because she felt too tired that she was afraid once she fell asleep, she would have missed the party.

Lucy made it a point to attend this party.

She arrived at the venue moments later.

Under the camera flashes, Lucy put on a courteous smile and got out of the car gracefully.

She clutched her chest the whole way and nodded with acknowledgment towards the media. From time to time, she pulled back loose strands of her hair. Lucy was akin to a goddess with every move she made.

However, no reporters interviewed her.
