Chapter 567

The questions and details of the talk show today had been printed out by Susan Reed beforehand and given to Lucy.

She only needed to memorize the answers and remember not to make any mistakes.

The show was held in a TV studio.

The talk show lasted approximately three hours, and the process was relatively pleasant.

This was not Lucy’s first time participating in these talk shows, so she was able to respond effortlessly even when the talk show host deliberately strayed off the script.

When the program ended, it was already 2:30 pm.

Lucy had not eaten lunch, so her stomach was rumbling in protest.

Once she had changed her clothes, she left with Carina.

As they walked out, the two of them discussed where to eat later.

Unexpectedly, she saw Simon Wilburn emerge from the opposite side.

At this time, they were still inside the TV studio where the show was recorded. This entire building belonged to a major TV company, so it was normal to see celebrities come and go.

It was not out of the ordinary to run into Simon Wilburn here.

Since they were already familiar with one another and had an upcoming movie together, their relationship was decent.

Lucy nodded her head at him and smiled. “What a coincidence. Are you here for filming?”

When Simon Wilburn walked in earlier, his face clearly indicated that he was in a bad mood.

However, as soon as he saw that the person who greeted him was Lucy Katz, his face burst into an ecstatic smile.

He almost ran over to her and said, “Yes, why are you here?”

With a smile, Lucy motioned towards the recording studio she was in earlier.

“I was here for a talk show.”

“Oh, I see.”

When both of them had replied, it seemed like they had run out of things to say.

Feeling that the situation was a little awkward, Lucy was going to just send her regards and leave. Yet unexpectedly, Simon Wilburn looked at the time on his watch and said, “I have another program here, but it’s still early. The recording only starts at 4:00 pm, and I haven’t had lunch.”

With that, he asked her directly, “By the way, have you had lunch?”

“Not yet.”

Simon Wilburn’s eyes lit up upon hearing that. He smiled at her. “Then, let me treat you to a meal, as payback for the trouble I caused you the last time.”

Last time?

Lucy was speechless for a moment before she could react.

Of course, she knew what he was talking about. It was about their previous scandal.

It was that time when they were secretly photographed in the underground parking lot.

He should not have mentioned it. Now that he mentioned the incident, Lucy was reminded of Joel’s vile face.

As she remembered Joel’s warning to her, her face paled.

She quickly turned his offer down. “It’s okay, I still have something to do. Maybe next time.”

When Simon Wilburn heard her answer, he did not seem to notice anything unusual but appeared slightly deflated.

“Oh, since you’re busy, then maybe next time. In that case, I won’t hold you back anymore.”

Lucy nodded. The two of them said their goodbyes and left.

Once they walked out of the building, there was a car waiting for them.

When they got into the car, Lucy relayed an address of a restaurant to the driver.

This was a restaurant that she had visited before, and the food was good. Since it was rare for her to have some free time, she wanted to go back there and treat herself to a mini vacation.

Needless to say, Carina went with her.

It was not until the car started moving that Carina whispered to her in a surreptitious tone, “Sister Lucy, somehow, I have a feeling that Simon Wilburn is interested in you.”

Upon hearing Carina’s words, Lucy was taken aback. She turned to look at the other girl.

Looking at the inquisitive look on Carina’s face, Lucy’s expression shifted.

She glanced at the driver.

This driver was arranged by Susan Reed, so he was relatively trustworthy. He was usually taciturn and did not speak much.

She breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, “Don’t talk nonsense, there’s nothing between us.”

However, Carina did not notice the abnormality in her expression. In a low voice, she insisted, “Sister Lucy, I really think Young Master Wilburn treats you differently than he treats other people. Have you ever heard him offering to buy any of the actresses a meal? But he asked you just now.

“Although most people think that he is a womanizer, I personally think that he’s a good man.

“At least he treats the ladies like a gentleman. Even though he likes a person, he still considers her feelings. Unlike someone else, who is domineering and arrogant. No matter how noble his status, he’s completely despicable.”

Upon hearing Carina’s declaration, Lucy’s eyebrow twitched. She turned to look at her.

“Domineering and arrogant? Who are you talking about?”

Carina pursed her lips in dissatisfaction. “Sister Lucy, you don’t have to hide it from me, I know everything.”

Naturally, she meant Joel Foster.

Lucy fell silent for a while, not knowing what to say.

After a while, the only sounds were Carina’s tuts of disapproval.

“I just don’t understand. While those two men are known to be womanizers, you don’t look like a person who is careless about relationships. How could Young Master Foster treat you like that?

“At the very least, you’re childhood friends. Even if he doesn’t like you, he should treat you a little better!

“Even if he doesn’t support you, common courtesy is expected! But he always makes you sad. Even I cannot bear to watch, let alone others.”

Her words struck Lucy completely speechless.

Did Joel Foster go too far? He probably did.

But...

She should hate him very much, deep into her bones.

Yet, another voice piped out from her heart.

No! She did not hate him.

In fact, she even...

Lucy shook her head, not daring to think any further.

She pursed her lips and spoke, “Stop all this nonsense. There’s absolutely nothing happening, whether with Joel Foster or Simon Wilburn. All those things are impossible, so don’t mention this again.”

Seeing that Lucy’s face was upset and her tone was stern, Carina knew that Lucy was being serious.

Finally, she replied with an “oh’ and shut her mouth. She did not dare say anything more.

The car soon arrived at the restaurant.

This restaurant was well-known throughout the capital — it was called Quan Ji De.

Their roast duck was top-notch.

Not only did big celebrities like to come here, even the upper class of the capital often came here to eat.

For this reason, this restaurant was ranked as one of the top restaurants in the capital.

Spoiled by the President Chapter 566 Forced Sojourn Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Their security and privacy were well-guarded too.

So there was absolutely no need to worry about one’s security or privacy while eating here.

The two of them sat down in the booth they had reserved earlier.

Just as they sat down, a loud noise came from outside.
