Chapter 103: Storm (1)

"Hi, my dear, don't you sleep a little longer?" Shirley asked gently as she watched her daughter bouncing down the stairs.
"No, mother, you know, I will go to France with Mr. Besson in two days to propagate, before that I have to return all the books borrowed from the Oliver Library." Natalie smiled in Sit down at the table and look around: "Dad gone?"
"Yes." Mom nodded and hesitated. "Dear, your father may not be able to accompany you to France."
Natalie froze, and her hand that had just picked up the spoon stopped in the air: "Is something wrong, Mom?"
"A medical conference, the invitation I just got yesterday." Shirley looked at her daughter with apology.
The daughter sighed: "Okay, I know, it's okay, mother, so next time."
After breakfast, Natalie packed the borrowed book into her backpack and checked it again. Then she took out her bike and went out. She didn't ride fast, and it was almost Halloween. The weather in New York had become a bit cold. Maybe there will be snow in a few days.
"Hi nat!"
"Hello, Mr. Smith."
"How are you? Natalie."
"Thank you, Miss Meryl, I'm fine."
Natalie rode on her bicycle while greeting her neighbors on the street. In this neighborhood, she is always popular for her lively and cheerful performances. This is even more so after the release of "Slayer", well, maybe she should Fortunately, Angela was not rejected.
Thinking of the night of the premiere, Angela first called to congratulate her. After speaking some congratulations, she was silent for a few seconds, and then hurriedly said, as if starting a gun: "I miss you nat! I really miss You! I miss you all the time! I want to hold you and hold you! I want to kiss you! "
Then I hung up the phone with a click, leaving Natalie dazed for a while, not knowing what the other party was saying, but now she made her face a little hot when she remembered it, and a strange ecstasy lingered in her heart. go with.
After about three or four streets, after more than twenty minutes, she finally came to the Oliver Library, put the car in and went straight in.
Although the wide library seated a lot of people, it was very peaceful, and only the rustling sound of flipping books could be heard, which made people unable to bear to walk lightly.
Before coming to the management office, Natalie took the three books out of her backpack, put them neatly on the counter, and handed her library card: "Hey, Mrs. Maris, I'm here to return the book. "
"Oh? Oh, it's Miss Natalie, um ... I'm so glad to see you." Behind the counter was a kind middle-aged woman. She was reading the newspaper and found that Natalie was unnaturally awkward. But she quickly hid this unnaturalness in her smile: "Are you returning the book? Okay, please wait."
After receiving her library card, she immediately went through the formalities and it took only a few minutes for her to do everything.
"This is your library card, Miss Natalie." After returning the library card to her, Mrs. Maris finally couldn't hold back, and asked, "Yes, if I can, I would like to ask ... Did Miss Angela Mason recommend Mr. Luc Besson to "Slayer"? "
This sentence made Natalie froze, but she didn't think much, just nodded: "Yes."
Mrs. Maris opened her mouth, but said nothing. She just smiled and took her seat. At this time, a library worker came over. He was a girl in her twenties: "Mrs. Maris, Excuse me, are the three books on the back of the second row of the g-letter shelf borrowed? "
"Wait a moment." The lady checked it on the computer a bit. "Oh yes, Mr. Bernard on Monteldée borrowed them."
"Okay, I know." The girl nodded, and when she found Natalie who was about to leave with her schoolbag closed, her eyes lit up: "Is it Natalie Hessler Ge?"
"Yes, I am," Natalie nodded in response.
"Wow, I went to" Slayer "a few days ago. Your performance is really outstanding. It is almost on par with Miss Angela Mason. I didn't expect to see you here." The girl was immediately excited. Speaking, Natalie couldn't help but be flattered, but the other party's words changed a little.
"I really envy you. I can have a genius friend, as long as she can say a few words for you, Hollywood will follow you. If only I could have the opportunity like you." She said more and more, looking at Nata Li's eyes became a little jealous.
"Well, Maggie!" Mrs. Maris interrupted severely at the moment, "go back to work!"
"I see." Maggie shrugged and turned to leave, but she still murmured in her mouth, "Isn't that so?"
"I'm sorry, Natalie, please don't take the things she said ..." Mrs. Maris tried to comfort, but Natalie interrupted, "Mrs. Maris, what did she say? ? "
"It's nothing, boy, don't take it to heart." Mrs. Maris just said repeatedly.
"Please tell me, please!" Natalie approached the counter and looked directly at each other.
Mrs. Maris hesitated for a long while before handing the newspaper in her hand with a bitter smile. Natalie didn't say much. She flipped through several pages and quickly turned to the entertainment edition. In the second edition, she found what she was looking for. With the news, accompanied by a half-length picture of her, the title is very conspicuous: in Hollywood, it is necessary to have a good friend.
"On Friday night, we enjoyed a good movie," The Killer ", which is the fourth work of Hollywood genius girl Angela Mason, a fairy tale about the killer, but we need to pay attention to the protagonist The same is a little girl, but Miss Mason did not participate in the performance like the previous work. The protagonist is the unknown Natalie Hessler. This is strange, after all, Miss Mason's acting has been received in "hide and seek" sure.
In this regard, we interviewed the director Mr. Luc Besson, and Mr. Besson said that Miss Hessler will appear in the film is due to Miss Mason's strong request, and it is said that Miss Mason even said that if Mr. Besson Rejected, she will retract the script.
What made Miss Mason step into the casting job and recommend such a newcomer? When we asked Miss Mason at the Naxmas School, we got this answer: Natalie is my friend, we are very good, and I don't think that recommending her is a wrong decision.
Apparently, when Miss Mason handed over the script to Mr. Besson, she had already selected the heroine. In this regard, the 14-year-old Ms. Fini Grey said that she had participated in the casting. She would never go to the casting, which is really disgusting.
It seems that in order to become famous in Hollywood, talent and hard work are not enough. Perhaps you should find a way to make a gifted friend, which should be easier, isn't it? "
Natalie's hand was shaking, although she seemed to be severely grasped, but she was still very calm on the surface, silently returned the newspaper to Mrs. Maris, grabbed her backpack and walked out two steps, Suddenly he looked back at her again: "Do you think so, Mrs. Maris?"
"This, Miss Natalie," Mrs. Maris let out her hands awkwardly. "I went to the cinema. I think you did a great job, so please don't care."
That said, you actually think so. Natalie didn't say it, but turned around and walked out of the library silently. No wonder, no wonder two girls pointed at themselves when they stopped, no wonder the young people at the door were always holding themselves when they came in. . Do n’t they know that although Angela recommended herself, she was brushed off at the first audition, and it was easy to get a second audition, and she was almost brushed. How could they do that? Report!
Natalie kicked the car back home at a stretch, and her mother went out. Only Miss Belette, who invited to clean the room, was there. She simply said hello to the other person, and returned to the room to lie down on the bed without thinking. Pillowing her head and watching the ceiling bun, she is a very smart girl with a little precocity, but this does not mean that she can calmly deal with these catching news, yes, she knows that this is just irresponsible reporting, But my heart was still very miserable.
She seemed absent-minded all morning, and didn't even think about packing her luggage to France, and stayed in her room until she came down for lunch.
"Nat, are you okay?" Miss Burlatt brought lunch to her, worried, and although she called Mrs. Hesslerge about the girl's abnormal situation, she couldn't come back at noon and could only tell her to help Take care of your daughter.
"I'm fine, Annie, please don't worry about me, I'm just ... a bit tired." Natalie smiled reluctantly, and pushed away the plate after she ate something: "I'm done."
Before waiting for Miss Bellett to say anything, she picked up the plate and went into the kitchen, which made Annie feel a little overwhelmed. At this time, the phone rang, and Miss Bellett quickly rushed to answer, and then she stopped and came out of the kitchen to prepare Natalie going upstairs: "nat, Miss Angela's phone."
Natalie froze, with a complex look in her eyes, and took the microphone in the past: "Hi, Angie."
"Nat! You ... did you see that ... that report?" The voice over there was hesitant and anxious.
The girl bit her lip: "You mean the report in the Los Angeles Evening News?"
"Have you seen it ?! Damn it! Nat, they misinterpreted what I said, believe me, that's definitely not my original word!" Angela's anger in the microphone was very clear.
"Yes, I know, reporters always do this, like exaggerating the facts." Natalie said calmly.
There was a few seconds of silence: "No, this is not an exaggeration of facts, this is a rumor, the facts are very clear, I just provided an opportunity, you put in hard work, a lot of hard work, this cannot be wiped out! They hurt me And hurt you! "
After a pause, she said softly again, "You are aggrieved, nat."
"No, Angie, I just ..."
"Don't lie to me, nat, I know you, I can hear that you ... are sad, I really want to ... hug you and comfort you."
The girl didn't know what to say, she suddenly felt a little warm in her heart. Then she heard Angela gritting her teeth over there and saying, "I'll let them give me an account, and give you an account!"
"What, Angie, you want to ..." Natalie was taken aback and was about to ask, there was a snapping sound over there, and she stared at the microphone in her hand for a moment.
What are you going to do, Angie?
