Chapter 574

Spoiled by the President

Before, Jada had always thought that Joel was a playboy and would never settle down with one woman.

She was able to accept that fact as long as she became the second young missus of the Foster family.

It finally got to her head today that she was wrong.

Others may not be able to tell but she managed to observe that Joel had fallen for that woman.

Why?

Why did the man, who dumped her as though she was nothing, turn around and take a fancy to another woman.

How was she inferior to Lucy?

Jada refused to accept this fate!

A seed of irreconciliation and resentment was buried deep within and a just tiny spark was capable of setting it ablaze.

Gnashing her teeth, she clenched her fist and fixated on the photo on her screen.

It took a while before she took a deep breath. Jada forked out her phone and made a call.

“Hello, help me find a person. Get him to deal with something for me...”

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Lucy was unaware that Jada had an eye on her.

Susan had given Lucy several days off. Soon she would be joining the set of a thriller and comedy film, along with Simon, thereafter.

Hence, she planned to take these few days to keep her mother company in the hospital.

St. Petersburg Hospital that Mother Katz was staying in was the best in East Asia, regardless of facilities or environment.

Moreover, Joel had specially hired the best nurse for her, so that Lucy would have fewer things to worry about in life.

Lucy’s only concern was the availability of a donor heart for Mother Katz.

Her blood type was simply too rare. There was no way to have a heart transplant without a donor.

Without a heart transplant, the illness cast a shadow over the mother and daughter like an impending yet unpredictable curse, threatening to take away Mother Katz’s life.

Unwilling to give in, Lucy had her mind set on curing her mother.

That day, she was about to visit Mother Katz in the hospital when she received a call from Nell.

Lucy was caught by surprise.

Nell rarely initiated contact with her. Occupied with childcare and managing a company, she was really busy.

As an artist under Xinghui, Lucy’s needs were taken care of by either Hannah or Susan. It had been a while since Nell got involved.

Why did Nell call her at a time like this?

Filled with question marks, Lucy took the call.

Once the call connected, Nell was heard happily saying, “Lucy, I heard that your mother is sick and in the hospital?”

It was impossible to hide the fact from the company that Lucy’s mother was hospitalized. Lucy never intended to conceal it from the start.

She never mentioned it before solely because Susan and Nell did not ask, and neither did she touch on the topic.

Later, Susan found out through an incident and Lucy did not try to cover up or anything. It was no surprise that Nell caught on as well.

Lucy softly hummed an acknowledgment and nodded. “Yes, what’s up?”

Nell grinned. “Nothing. I heard that your mother has a heart problem. It so happens that I might travel out of the country soon. There’s a lot more news about donor hearts in Country F than within this country and news travels faster too. Do you need me to help you ask around?”

Lucy was elated by the unexpected news.

With this great opportunity just falling onto her lap, how could she possibly refuse?

Lucy immediately bobbed her head. “Yes, I do.”

Hearing the exciting tone, Nell smiled. “I should be there next week. I’ll let you know if I come across anything.”

“Sure.” Lucy’s exhilarated voice was almost trembling. She knew Nell well enough to know that the latter would not call to ask if she did not already have something concrete in her hands.

It was very likely that Nell had received news about a donor heart but was not sure. Hence, she specifically made the call to bring her attention to the matter.

Lucy got a little teary-eyed. It took a while before she managed to compose herself and said, “Thank you, Nell.”

Nell grinned in return. “What’s there to thank me for? Don’t think I just want to help you. You’re the number one artist in Xinghui, my most valuable money maker. I’m counting on you to earn money for me, so of course, I need you without family woes.”

These words seemed intentional to put Lucy’s mind at rest.

Lucy was able to understand that and was very grateful.

She whimpered. “I know, don’t you worry. I will work hard and earn more money.”

“Alright, I’ll remember these words.”

The duo chatted for a while before hanging up.

Nell had just ended the call when the door to her office was knocked on.

Kylie walked in holding a cup of coffee.

With Nell no longer acting, she had been working in Anning International, but she did not dismiss Kylie and instead, had her continue working for her.

Whenever Kylie was unsure about anything at work, Nell would take the time to teach and guide her.

Thus Kylie, who only ran errands such as serving tea, pouring water, and retrieving clothes, was now well-versed and attentive to the ways of the world. She was basically Nell’s right-hand woman.

Kylie had nothing but gratitude towards this change.

For this reason, she was ridden with more guilt and blamed herself for what she had done to Nell before.

Seeing that she just ended a call, Kylie embarrassedly smiled. “President Jennings, I hope I didn’t bother you.”

Spoiled by the President Chapter 573 Won’t Make Excessive Demands Wrong Ride, Right Lover Although Kylie addressed Nell as Sister Nelly in private, Nell was no longer managing the public relations department but the entirety of Anning International.

Not wanting to become an object of hearsay, Kylie addressed Nell as President Nell in the office.

Noticing that Kylie entered the room, Nell lifted her head and smiled at her. She put her phone down at her side and casually answered, “No.”

She picked up the coffee and took a sip. Struck by a thought, Nell asked, “Oh, right. I’m taking a trip abroad next week. I’ll handle any work-related matters remotely. Remember to report to me on time if any problem arises here.”

Kylie nodded. “Okay.”

Nell handed her a list of employees on the table.

“This is the name list for next week’s film festival. Send a copy to the artist department and public relations department, and get those who are nominated to prepare in advance. Those who can make it there should all go. Those who won’t go are just trying to keep up some senseless holier-

than-thou attitude.”

Kylie looked at the document and flipped through.

She then lifted her chin and grinned at Nell. “Director Leith and the rest probably can’t make it.”

Gareth Leith?

Nell frowned.

“Why?”

Kylie smiled and replied, “Director Leith is busy lately, preparing to shoot a science fiction film. I passed by his office the other time and heard him discussing with a playwright. I guess it won’t be long before he applies for approval from you.”
