Chapter 516
Spoiled by the President
At this moment, at the crew.
Lucy had been dangling there for more than ten minutes.
Levi and Carina ran themselves ragged thinking of all sorts of methods, but they still did not manage to save her.
Since there was only one scene on the mountain today, not many people had joined them. Besides the necessary lighting props and photographers, there were only Levi, several actors, and a makeup artist.
The sudden change of events took everyone by surprise.
Levi shouted at the few people in charge of the props. âDidnât you say you checked before? You call this checking? Is that how you do things?â
The people also felt wronged. âDirector, itâs not like we brought this bridge. It was here since before and everyone walked fine on it. How would we know that itâll break when Lucy walks on it?â
Levi was so angry he almost blew a gasket.
He turned to the assistant. âHave you found anyone?â
The assistant shook his head awkwardly. âDirector, the mountain is too far away and itâs raining. The crane wonât be able to drive over in a short time.â
Levi grew anxious. âWhat about the stuntmen? Tell them to bring the action choreographer and get her out.â
The assistant was put on the spot.
âAll of todayâs filming is for literary dramas, so none of them came over. Since we wanted to travel light, the prop team also did not bring along any harnesses. We...â
âEnough!â
Carina suddenly shouted. Her eyes were red with anger as she glared at the group of people who refused to take responsibility, pushing the blame to one another. She said angrily, âAre you still men? Sister Lucy has been hanging down there for more than ten minutes. How long can she last in this heavy rain? Canât you find a way to find someone to go down and save her?â
The assistant looked at her and said nothing.
Carina continued. âEven if there isn't a harness, a rope would work too. Canât someone just tie it on their body and go down? Donât any of you grown men have the courage to step forward?â
No one uttered a word. No one even dared to look at her, all dodging her questioning eyes.
Carinaâs heart sank at this sight.
At that moment, someone in the crowd whispered, âItâs raining so heavily and the rocks are slippery. Who would dare to go down without protective gear? Isnât that asking for death?â
Before he could finish his words, someone jabbed his arm and forced him to shut up.
Levi also looked incredibly unpleasant but at this time, it was inappropriate to force others to go down.
He instructed his assistant in a deep voice, âImmediately call the crew and ask them to send someone with tools to rescue her. In addition, send a report to the police to see if they have a faster and more convenient way nearby to save her.â
The assistant agreed and hurried to it.
Carina saw this and understood that Lucy would not be rescued for a while.
Although the crew and police would be notified, it would still take at least half an hour to get up the mountain. Who knew if Lucy would be able to hold on that long?
In a mixture of fear and panic, Carina started to cry.
When Levi turned around and saw her crying, he could not help but get even more annoyed.
âAlright, stop crying. Sheâs still fine. What are you crying for?â
Carina sobbed while wiping her tears. âSheâs been hanging there for so long. How could she still be fine?â
Levi also grew slightly worried at her words.
He walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. The bottom was so deep that he could not see Lucy at all.
âLucy Katz, how are you? Can you hear my voice?â
After a long time, a faint voice sounded from below.
âYes.â
Although the voice was weak, it undoubtedly gave everyone a shot of reassurance.
Everyone was shaken hard. Levi quickly said, âDonât worry. Iâve already sent someone to get the items needed to save you. How much longer can you hold on?â
Lucy actually could not hold on any longer.
The sudden change of events, the danger, and even the heavy rain.
Whether it was her psychological or physical strength, she had already reached her limit.
However, she clenched her teeth and shouted upward, âI can still hold on for a little longer.â
Levi was immediately assured at her words.
âGood, you have to hold on. The person who will save you will be here soon.â
As rocks were slippery on rainy days, no one dared to venture down, so they had to wait for professional rescuers to come.
Time was pressing and every second held imminent danger.
At this time, Levi also put down his prejudice about Lucy. After all, she was an actress in his crew. No matter what, he wanted her to be rescued safely.
He looked at the time and dialed the phone again.
âHow long until you guys arrive?â
On the other side, the rescue team was rushing this way.
âItâll take at least twenty minutes.â
âCanât you go any faster?â
âWeâre going the fastest we can. Find a way to help her hold on first. Donât let your guard down.â
Levi cursed. âFind a way? What way? Itâs a matter of life and death. Who would let their guard down?â
The person on the other side was also helpless. They were not birds who could fly over with wings. Eventually, they hung up the phone amid anxious swearing.
Thus, when Joelâs group had arrived at the scene, all they saw was a mess.
âHey, whatâs going on? Isnât there supposed to be filming here? What are you all doing around the cliff?â
It had only been a short time since Lucyâs accident and the news had not spread yet, so others did not know about it.
Joel glanced at Levi and recognized him.
The image of a certain woman flashed in his mind and his expression immediately turned ugly.
âWe wonât be sheltering from the rain here. Letâs go.â
Then, he turned to leave.
The group of rich kids who followed him was all stunned, not understanding what was going on.
âYoung Master Foster, donât be like that. Weâve already come all the way here. Why are we leaving now?â
âThatâs right. Itâs raining so heavily and thereâs nothing around us. There really wonât be anywhere else for us to take shelter besides here. You have to think clearly.â
Everyone tried to persuade Joel, making it clear that they did not want to leave.
Joelâs face grew even darker.
At that moment, Levi spoke.
He naturally recognized Joel Foster. Although he was not familiar with him, he could not care less at this time.
He approached with an anxious face and said, âYoung Master Foster, itâs great that youâre here. You must help me with something. You have a high position and many methods. If youâre willing to help in this matter, itâll definitely be faster than what we can do.â
Joel did not have time to respond when Carina came over and looked at him as if he was her savior.
âYoung Master Foster, you have to save Sister Lucy. If you donât save her, sheâll be finished today.â

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Joel shook violently.
His expression changed.
Carina had been around when Joel had approached Lucy several times before. Although she did not understand the specifics between the two, she knew that there must be something between them.
