Chapter 511
Spoiled by the President
Levi barked impatiently and then looked at Lucy.
âYour idea of playing the good guy in the crew isnât bad, unfortunately, your methods arenât very clever.â
Lucy raised her eyebrows.
With this, she was finally clear on Leviâs attitude toward her.
Without having to look back, she could hear the rest of the people talking about her. They had reason to believe what they just saw, so they did not think in detail about why Lucy would want to target Astrid in the first place.
The most important thing was that even Director Fernandez had concluded that Lucy was a scheming person. He first helped speak out on behalf of Astrid while privately retaliating against Lucy.
Lucy smiled coldly and looked down at the sword on the ground, and calmly picked it up.
âIt was indeed my mistake earlier. However, the scene hasnât been finished yet, so letâs continue now.â
Levi looked at the beautiful actress in astonishment.
âContinue?â
âYes, didnât you want to make sure progress isnât delayed? Letâs continue. Senior Astridâs injury is just a little flesh wound, so it shouldnât affect the filming, right?â
Astrid also did not expect Lucyâs reaction to be so calm.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Besides her, everyone else watching this scene also could not help but glance at one another, not understanding what Lucy was up to.
In the end, it was Levi who frowned in dissatisfaction and said, âItâs already noon, so everyone should go have lunch first. Weâll film this scene afterward.â
The directorâs voice was as pleasant as the sounds of nature and everyone was immediately relieved.
Astrid sat on the lounge chair, her gaze sweeping to Lucy occasionally. No one except the assistant close by saw the scorn in her eyes.
To prevent the afternoon shooting scene from being too awkward, Lucy thought it over and decided to walk to Astrid.
Not far away, the field attendants and cameramen pricked up their ears as if they would miss a big show if they did not pay attention.
âWhy are you coming over here? The director has already spoken.â
Astrid lost a little confidence at the calm expression on Lucyâs face. She had long forgotten the smugness she felt when she framed Lucy and did not dare to meet her eyes.
âI came to apologize to you. It was my fault earlier. Since weâre filming together, we need to be cooperative. Iâm sorry.â
Lucyâs voice did not sound forced at all, but it made Astrid feel like she was on pins and needles.
âFine, I get it.â
The right side of her face twitched unnaturally and her fake smile looked even worse than when she cried.
Lucy gave her a long look then smiled and left without saying anything more.
As for Astrid, the boldness in her heart started to fade at Lucyâs attitude.
When the crew was released for lunch, the assistant swiftly brought over food for Lucy.
However, she did not look very happy.
Lucy could guess the reason. Her assistant, Carina, had a straightforward nature and could not stand listening to people gossiping.
Now that she heard the gossip the crew was spreading, of course, she would be furious!
Sure enough, she carefully watched Lucyâs face and said in aggravation, âSister Lucy, that Astrid is obviously trying to give you a hard time. Why are you just enduring it?! That kind of person deserves to act in supporting roles for the rest of her life!â
Lucy glanced at her and said softly, âDonât say that. It was my own carelessness.â
With so many eyes on them, Lucy could only hide her true emotions. She knew the truth in her heart but it would not be a good idea to say some things to the straightforward assistant. She just had to remember to look out for Astrid.
Seeing this, Carina also could not say anything more. She pouted and went to the side to eat.
After calming her mood, another round of intense shooting soon started. In the process, Lucy was interrupted several times by Astrid and had to go through at least five NG shots because Astridâs lines were not up to par.
Leviâs expression grew darker and even Astrid started to get embarrassed when it was six in the evening.
She took the initiative to ask for a break to adjust her mindset but the reason she used was that her arm was still stinging.
Lucy sat silently on the rockery and waited while two makeup-artists whispered gossip behind her.
âIt seems like the rumors saying the main and supporting female leads being enemies are true. That Lucy Katz is really good at acting snobbish. Itâs fine to be late to the party but her professional abilities arenât that good either.â
âI knew that she must have some sort of backing. Look at how pretty she is. Do you think...â
Lucy refused to listen to the words that followed. She abruptly got up and quickly walked outside the studio.
As soon as she went out, she saw Carina pulling a face from a distance. She approached Lucy and complained. âSister Lucy, I went over to get the things we need but they kept beating around the bush and refused to give it to me.
âAstridâs assistant could get it but they just donât want to give it to me. Sister Lucy, I really want to just...â
Seeing that the assistant was on her side, Lucy did not say anything to reprimand her. She just smoothed her assistantâs messy hair and whispered, âItâll probably be like this for the next few days. Just bear with it and itâll pass.â
âBut...â
The assistant did not want to quarrel with the staff but the more she thought that someone as kind as Lucy would be treated unfairly, her heart grew incredibly bitter.
Lucy shot her assistant a look and motioned for her to be calm. She believed that others would be able to see Astridâs true nature in a few days.
Astridâs little tricks would not last long.
In the evening, Levi announced that they would wrap up work early and the crew which worked hard the entire day revealed smiles.
Astrid deliberately distanced herself from the others and pretended to be cordial and leaned into Lucy.
The assistant quickly stepped forward to block her from Lucy and said fiercely, âWhat are you doing here now? Are you trying to pick a fight again?â
âHow could you think of me like that? I just want to tell her to make sure she shoots well tomorrow.â

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Astrid brushed off the sleeve that the assistant had touched in revulsion and strutted away in her high heels.
Behind her, the assistantâs little face flushed with anger. She had never met such a shameless person before.
âCome on. We just have to do our part.â
Lucy pulled her assistant to the side like an elder sister. Everyone who passed by them saw the scene earlier and did not even dare to breathe in Lucyâs direction.
Although she did not want to admit it, Lucy was indeed affected. However, she put up a professional smile on her face again and told herself that it was fine. The storm would always pass.
The next morning, Lucyâs faith was shaken by a small incident. Her time of the month had come.
Cramps wrecked her abdomen and Lucyâs forehead was soon covered in beads of sweat. Her assistant walked over and got a fright upon seeing her.
