Chapter 660
Spoiled by the President
âShush already!â
Joel knew that the little woman was embarrassed and that she would really get angry if he continued to tease her.
He quickly restrained his pained expression and held her shoulder, laughing. âAlright, alright. Iâm just teasing you. Weâll take our time with the child as long as mom isnât in a hurry.â
He was obviously kicking the ball to Lucyâs mother.
Seeing this, she smiled. âThis is the business between you youngsters, so I wonât interfere, but Lulu, youâre not getting any younger. If you can, itâs better to have one early. Of course, the final decision is yours. Iâm just giving you an opinion from my own experience.â
Lucy blushed, not knowing whether to agree or refute.
In the end, she hummed perfunctorily a few times and let the topic pass.
After settling everything that night, her mother booked a ticket back to the south the next day.
Lucy did not have the time to send her back and could only see her off at the airport.
When they parted at the airport, it was natural that she did not want to let her mother go again.
Since she was worried about being seen while seeing her off, Lucy arranged a VIP channel for her mother.
The two of them held hands, reluctant to part for a long time, and only waved goodbye when the plane was about to take off.
After sending her mother off, Lucy returned home and was gloomy for the whole day.
Joel had sent her off together and when he saw that Lucy was unhappy, he tried his best to amuse her to cheer her up.
Lucyâs gloomy mood gradually began to lighten up.
The next day, she returned to the drama set and continued filming.
Lucy had long been used to the life of the crew.
Although she was married to Joel, the public did not know about it because the two had married in secrecy. Thus, no one would open any backdoors for her just because she was Mrs. Foster.
Everything was no different from her old life.
The only thing different was that lately, Carinaâs whereabouts had become increasingly bizarre.
Originally, as her personal assistant, Carina had always been following her around.
However, she did not know when it started, but Carina would often take a leave of absence, and even when she was following Lucy around, she would be distracted.
When Lucy tried calling or finding her, it was as if she could not hear Lucy at all.
This change caught Lucyâs attention.
It was because she cared about Carina and was afraid that something would happen to her that she noticed this.
Thus, one afternoon, Lucy saw that it was the right time and place and went up to Carina, and asked, âIs there something youâve been hiding from me lately?â
Carina still had not come back to her senses. âHuh?â
Lucy saw her dazed look and knew that she guessed correctly.
She clicked her tongue and shook her head.
âCarina, if something happened, you have to tell me. Iâll help you no matter what the situation is.â
Carina seemed to finally understand what was being said and immediately flushed.
She waved her hands and stammered, âSister Lucy, i-itâs nothing...â
Lucy looked at her and asked seriously, âReally? Judging by the way youâve been going about lately, it doesnât seem to be nothing.â
Carinaâs face became even redder.
She buried her head and muttered after a long time, âSister Lucy, Iâll pull myself together as soon as possible. You can rest assured that this will never happen again.â
Lucy was stunned and then realized that Carina misunderstood her intentions.
She was just worried about Carina and wanted to ask why she had been so absent-minded recently.
However, what Carina heard was that Lucy was dissatisfied with her work attitude during this time and wanted to give her a little knock.
Thinking about this, she wanted to say something to ease Carinaâs mind.
However, the assistant director came over at that moment and called out to her. âLucy, hurry over. Itâs your scene now.â
Lucy paused before quickly replying, âOkay, Iâll be right there.â
She looked back at Carina. Knowing that she would not be able to explain herself for a while, she only left a few words. âItâs nothing, I was just asking casually. If you have any difficulties, feel free to ask me. You donât have to hold back too much.â
Carina nodded heavily, and Lucy finally left.
The drama was quickly approaching its end.
By the time the scene finished, the weather was also gradually starting to heat up.
In the beginning, she had been wearing cotton clothes, but she had switched to wearing short-sleeves on the last day of filming.
Everyone took a group photo and then went to the party in the evening as usual, and discussed the following publicity process before dispersing.
When Lucy returned home, Joel had not come back yet.
Since the past few days were all night scenes, she stayed in the hotel since it was nearer to the set.
Thus, she had not come back for a long time.
During this time, Joel also occasionally came to visit.
However, the two were secretly married after all, and people would inevitably notice if he came too often. Thus, Joel could come late or very early in the morning, when everyone was either still filming or had not gotten up yet. They would not meet any familiar faces in the hotel, so they naturally did not have to worry about bumping into anyone.
After going a few times, Joel grew upset and refused to go again.
Lucy also understood that it was a bit aggravating to make a man live this kind of sneaky life, so she did not force him to come when he did not want to.
It was only now that she realized that the two of them had not seen each other for a week.
Furthermore, she really did miss him a little.
Thinking like this, Lucy looked at her watch and saw that it was still early, around 4:00 pm.
Thus, she rolled up her sleeves and entered the kitchen.
The cook in the kitchen of Orchid Villa was named Rose and was a very skilled female chef.
Usually, all the affairs in the kitchen were handled by her three apprentices and her.
At that time, they were preparing dinner.
As they knew that Lucy would be back today, they had prepared many rich and fresh ingredients in advance.
They were all a little surprised and scared to see Lucy suddenly enter.
âMadam, why did you come in? The kitchen is full of smoke. The smell will stick on you.â
Lucy saw their terrified faces and laughed.
âHasnât all the smoke been ventilated away already? Whatâs for dinner tonight?â
Sister Rose reported the menu for tonight at her question.
Lucy scanned the menu, thought about it, and then pointed at a dish and said, âChange this dish. We wonât have boiled pork slices today. Change it to braised fish instead. Iâll cook.â
âHuh?â
Everyone was a little surprised.
They were all bona fide chefs who had passed professional Michelin-starred restaurant examinations.
They only usually worked for first-rate wealthy and influential families in the capital.
