Lucy forced herself to sit up and shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’m just a little dizzy.”
Carina saw that Lucy did not look too good and curiously reached out to probe her forehead.
“Ah, Sister Lucy, you have a fever.”
Lucy was stunned. She also reached out to touch her forehead in surprise.
However, since she was having a fever, her entire body was hot, so she did not feel anything off when she touched her forehead.
She only felt dizzy and everything she saw seemed to turn blurry.
Carina grew anxious and was just about to call the doctor when Lucy stopped her.
“Don’t call yet.” She weakly reached out to stop Carina and said, “Help me ask the director for a leave of absence. Just tell him that I won’t be returning to the crew tonight. Go privately and don’t let too many people see you. We’ll go to the hospital by ourselves.”
Carina was still unsure. “But your condition…”
“I’m fine, it’s not a big deal. At most, I just fell into the water and caught a cold. I won’t die.”
Carina bit her lips, but in the end, she could only go as she was told.
Carina explained the reason to Levi in private and Levi was also reasonable. However, he did have some opinions about Lucy hiding the fact that she was uncomfortable and not saying anything about it.
It felt like Lucy had inadvertently made him a wicked person.
Carina also did not bother saying much with him. With his attitude toward Lucy yesterday, he should think about why she did not dare to say anything.
She hurried back and called a taxi, and soon accompanied Lucy to the hospital.
On the other hand, although Carina did not disclose it, news that Lucy was admitted to the hospital after filming the drama was leaked.
It was not a good idea for everyone to know when a lady’s time of the month came.
Therefore, the only thing everyone knew was that Lucy shot a water scene and was in the water for only one to two minutes, but she was admitted to the hospital.
Some people could not help but shake their heads and sigh.
“Tsk, a pampered girl is a pampered girl. How delicate.”
“Hopefully, the taxi drives faster. Otherwise, she might be cured before she gets to the hospital.”
This was because in the afternoon, Astrid also had a water scene. However, what was different was that it was a scene where she bathed at the water’s edge.
The advantage of this was that there was no action needed. She just had to sit inside without worrying about big movements.
The bad thing was that she had to stay in the water for a longer time. Furthermore, the scene was shot outdoors, so it would still be cold as time stretched.
However, Astrid still finished the scene perfectly. She even forced herself to ask for a few more takes, wanting to pick out the best one.
This was a far cry from Lucy’s performance in the morning where she only barely managed to pass after several failed takes.
In an instant, Lucy’s image changed from being a pretty little flower with a beautiful heart to a manipulative and scheming white lotus who could not bear any hardships.
On the other hand, Astrid, who had always been mediocre in the entertainment circle, suddenly became a goddess of dedication in everyone’s eyes.
Everyone could not help but sigh in private. The entertainment industry was unreasonable. Some people worked hard for ten years, but were still unable to match up to another person who had an attractive face.
It was too bad that the era now only looked at faces.
The thought that a certain someone was not unworthy of her position emerged and soon spread throughout the entire crew.
Negative news about Lucy acting snobbish, bullying her fellow actress, and making a mountain out of a molehill spread in just one day, and even the filming crew next door knew about it.
It just so happened that during this time, Janet Hancock was filming a scene for a historical drama next door.
