Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 612

Joel did not know about all the people Fourth had killed, so he thought that Lucy had claimed he was crazy because he had kidnapped and terrified her. He nodded and reached out to take her hand in his.

Turning to Mike, he said, “Stay with him for now and alert the police about what happened here. Let them lock him up first, and I’ll take care of the rest later.”

Mike nodded. “Got it.”

Then, he escorted Fourth away.

Fourth was going to say something as he was shoved away, but Mike stuffed something in his mouth to silence him.

It was only then that Joel turned back to Lucy and asked, “How are you feeling? Are you hurt?”

She shook her head. “I’m fine. He didn’t hurt me.” She did not suffer any injuries aside from the uncomfortable numbness she felt after her hands and feet had been bound together for a long period of time.

Joel was satisfied with her answer, so he ordered the chauffeur to drive them home.

About 20 minutes later, the car stopped in front of Lucy’s condominium block.

Carina had long since been notified of the news that Lucy had been found. She dropped everything she was doing and rushed over the second she received the news. Her eyes fogged over when she saw that Lucy was back in one piece in Joel’s arms.

“Lucy!”

She ran toward her.

Lucy extended her arms as Carina rushed in to give her a big hug.

The actress still felt a little weak despite not suffering any injuries since she had not eaten anything for a day and had been tied up for quite some time. As a result, the force with which Carina slammed into her arms made her wobble, and she would have fallen if Joel had not reached out and supported her with an arm.

Lucy chuckled and said, “It’s okay. I’m fine, and I’m back!”

Carina was already in tears, clutching her arm tightly and refusing to let her go. “Lucy, you scared me. I thought…I thought…”

“You thought you’d never see me again?” Lucy grinned.

Carina wailed even louder.

Joel watched this scene with a disapproving frown, suppressing his urge to push her away. “That’s enough! Are you still not done?” he said coldly.

Carina was startled by Joel’s harsh tone. She let go of Lucy and threw a cowardly glance at Joel’s towering figure.

Lucy side-eyed him. “Don’t be so forceful. You’re scaring her.”

Joel hummed but did not bother to retort. He bent and swept Lucy off her feet, carrying her into the condominium.

Lucy’s legs had gone back to normal a long time ago, so she was startled because she did not expect him to carry her. She tugged on his sleeve and whispered, “What are you doing?”

Joel’s face was devoid of any emotions. “Can’t you see? I’m taking you home.”

“I can walk on my own.”

“Ha! I can see that.”

Lucy did not know what to say. She could not understand what was going on with this man, but she did not exactly mind being carried like this. They did not say another word.

He carried her all the way to her floor and opened the door. It was only when they were in her room that he put her down on the sofa.

He turned to Carina and said, “Let your boss take a bath and get her something to eat. Take good care of her.”

Carina did not dare to say a word to him after that episode down there. His formidable aura was comparable to that of a mafia boss’s. All she did was nod repeatedly at his words.
