The RV was running on the street at a constant speed, and the tall palm trees on both sides ran back under the illumination of street lights.
"Would you like a drink?" Spiro took out two cups from the small refrigerator in the car and looked at Angela.
"Drink? Oh, no, thank you." The girl turned back, shook her head with a smile, and looked at the two little golden men in her hand, and she sighed slightly.
"What's wrong? Unhappy?" After putting back a cup, Mr. Broker took out a bottle of brandy and poured half a cup for himself. "But you took two trophies, which is enough to make people look impressive, not counting the gold content. Then, Kevin Costner's record has been tied. If it was not luck, maybe he could win the best original script. Then you will break another record and they will call you Miss Record Breaker. "
"Yes, if so, maybe the record-breaking lady will be sent to the National Academy of Sciences after leaving the music center, and then slice and study to see what she is!" Angela said sternly, and Sparrow shook his head with a smile. Drink the brandy in the glass.
"I'm very satisfied that I can win two Golden Men. This is also an affirmation to me. I'm still young. Maybe one day I will win all the Golden Men at once, and it's not necessarily." The girl smiled and opened. With a joke, there was a helplessness following his face: "Actually, I was just thinking what the newspapers of tomorrow will say, especially those tabloids, which found nothing on Grammy. They said that the jury had seen my true colors. This time, they won two awards in one go. They would probably say that Dad bought the jury and talked about it. They were talking. "
"With regard to this, Angie, I agree with Miss Julia that anyone who has worked with you will not have that ridiculous idea, and the judges of the jury are not idiots without judgment." Sparrow Shrugging, "Moreover, those tabloids are tabloids that attract attention with lace news. They can't make much waves, and Mr. Jared sent someone to stare. If they cross the border, they will be resolved naturally."
Solve them? A scene suddenly appeared in Angela's head. Dozens of big men in black trench coats rushed into a small newspaper office. The clothes were lifted and they pulled out the Chicago typewriter. He smiled and pulled the trigger at the stunned person, and in the sound of banging, the woman screamed, the man crawled around, and the paper fluttered in the air ...
The girl shivered a lot. Did she watch too many gangster movies? How come such a weird idea? Also Chicago typewriter? This is not the 1930s!
Maybe his hatred of tabloids has reached a certain level? Angela shook her head. Don't think about it. Otherwise, you have to go to see a psychiatrist. Of course, she also knows that she hates tabloids for another reason ...
Spiro, sitting at each other, saw the girl shaking her head. Could not help but be wrong, thought for a while and thought: "Recently several television stations hope to give you an exclusive interview, or I promise to come down?"
"Interview?"
"Yes, since you are worried about your image, then accept a few interviews and show yourself." Mr. Broker said, spreading his hands.
The girl thought for a few minutes, nodded, and shook her head: "It can be considered, but wait until later tonight, my parents are still waiting for me."
The RV was already on Beverly Hills. After identity exposure. The reporters were finally happy to announce the girl's address, so her father decided to move out of Blencott Street. Back to Beverly Hills, after all, Beverly Hills has a much higher safety factor, but Angela never liked the house in Beverly Hills, it was too big.
The RV stopped at the door. After the door opened automatically, it slowly moved in. The tall modern-style house was covered in the green ocean. The independent small rooms were scattered around. The middle of the courtyard was much larger than before. Fountain, house and courtyard are more than two hectares.
"Welcome home." Jennifer smiled and opened the door for the girl.
"Thank you, Aunt Jennifer." The girl jumped out of the RV with the little golden man, gave it to the maid next to her, and held the housekeeper to her face.
"Congratulations, Angie, Madam has been watching TV. When you won the prize, you even shed tears." Jennifer said half-true.
"Really? That's not like my mother." The girl said with a smile, and then said to the maid holding the trophy, "Can you get me to my parents, can you, Lucy?"
"Okay, miss." Lucy's maid nodded and turned into the room. Then Angela looked at Sparrow in the car again: "Are you going together? Jack?"
"This is not necessary, after all, it is your local feast." The agent said with a smile and shaking his hand.
"Well then, David will take you back to the ground, goodbye." The girl nodded, let it go, waited until the door was closed, and watched it exit the door, and then went into the room with Jennifer.
The living room is decorated in a typical Mediterranean style and looks very spacious and comfortable. The living room is directly behind the glass wall. There is an oversized aquarium with dolphins and many ornamental fishes in the ocean. Jared originally wanted to raise sharks, but his wife and daughter voted unanimously. Had to give up.
Yes, Angela doesn't like it here.
The house here is too big, there are only 10 bedrooms, not to mention more bathrooms than bedrooms. In addition to the necessary rooms such as study rooms and restaurants, there are also gyms, cinemas, entertainment centers and more. There are also three four-car garages outside, parked in several cars owned by his father, and in the exclusive room of personal doctor Jason. Behind the chef's and maid's rooms, there is also a tennis court and an outdoor swimming pool-and an indoor one.
The whole villa is full of modern flavor and is a masterpiece of the famous designer Alan Dale. But for girls, it's more like a vacation in a hotel, and it lacks that warm feeling. Compared to homes on the Blencott Street, the house is more like home. It's only better than Brent's Frent House.
Soon, came outside the restaurant. When Jennifer opened the door for the girl, the long table ended, and she stared at her with 8 eyes, which surprised Angela.
"Is this welcome?" The girl shrugged, and at the same time felt that something was wrong. How could there be 8 people in the house? But when she could see who was more, she exclaimed.
"Don't do that. My dear, it will make me embarrassed." The tall man standing beside Frank and waving to her was actually the godfather Brian Benjamin who was far away from New York.
"God, when are you here!" Angela jumped to the godfather and asked him in surprise.
"I was on the way to the Music Center when I got off the plane, but don't worry, I watched the awards ceremony all the way," Brian said with a smile. Then he put on a look of doubt: "Aren't you going to give me a hug?"
"Oh, it's not working now." Angela put her hands behind her back and said solemnly, "Mom said I'm already a big girl now, and want to hold on to a lady!"
A serious look caused laughter, and Elena, who was sitting on the other side of the long table, couldn't help aggravating her voice: "Kriss!" But the smile in his voice couldn't be masked.
"Okay, okay," the girl raised her hands. Then he reached out to Brian, "Do you want to hug? My dear godfather?"
"Well, Kris. Don't be naughty," Jared said, smiling, then looking at the housekeeper at the door: "Jennifer, tell Water, you can start."
After the other nodded and left, he greeted again, "Okay, everyone is seated."
"Mom, can I change clothes first?" Angela suddenly looked at Elena.
"Of course, remember to move quickly." Mother nodded.
"Hey, dear. You're beautifully dressed. Why should you change it?" Frank asked with a joke, and Angela made a grimace in reply. Then she ran out, and at the door, she suddenly turned her head again: "Mom, can I see two little guys by the way?"
Elena sighed: "I want to say no, Chris, but I know that even if I say that, you will sneak away, so-don't wake them!"
"Okay, I see!" Angela replied with a grin, and then ran up with her skirt.
After a trot upstairs, the third room with her right hand was her own bedroom, but hesitated and she went to the baby room first.
Gently push open the door, and then turn on the wall light switch. Under the specially installed low-brightness bulb, Angela tiptoes to the two cribs next to each other and crawls on the edge to look inside. The chubby little guy is asleep, his eyes and mouth are completely carved with three seams on his face, and he looks very cute.
The girl couldn't help but gently touch the fleshy little faces with their fingers, and then chuckled her mouth. It's a pity that they were sleeping, and in the usual time, she scooped up their cheeks one by one earlier. , The two little guys are also very entangled with her, in addition to her mother, she is closest to her, and even her father has to be in the back.
For a boy and a girl, the consequence of the mother not checking is that no one knows that it will be a pair of dragons and phoenixes before giving birth! But this is a very big surprise. Everyone is very happy, including grandpa and grandfather. The two little ones inherited the father's eyes that are as dark as the bottom of the lake. They are very beautiful. The baby is really the most flattering. Of course, except when they were crying, thinking about it, a long time ago, they could n’t control their body. When they wanted to pee, they could only draw attention by crying. Suddenly, weird came out of their heads. After a chill, he left quickly.
After coming out of her brother's and sister's room, the girl returned to her bedroom. When she entered the door, she knocked the flat-heeled shoes on her feet twice, then took off her dress and threw it on the bed. Go to the closet with your feet, open it and take out the usual ones.
These clothes are newly made because they grow too fast. The original clothes have already been donated to charity. Angela took her clothes and drew in front of the mirror, and chose a beige shirt, a pair of jeans and white canvas shoes.
She was about to put on in the mirror. Suddenly I felt like I had forgotten something, and thought about it and looked at the girl in the mirror again. Then his gaze fell on his chest, and the original little bun was bigger again, almost catching up with the big apple, probably with a b-cup cover. Angela laughed bitterly, throwing her clothes on the bed, then found a white bra with a buckle strap from the closet, and sighed and put it on herself. During the whole process, she faced her face as if she had been tortured. In fact, as a woman, a suitable bra is still very comfortable to wear. Angela will have such a reaction that it is completely psychological.
Look at myself in the mirror. After putting on the bra, her chest really looks firmer, and she can't help smiling. Then quickly got dressed and went out. After coming to the door, she couldn't help looking back and looked at the telephone at the bedside, sighed and flew away.
At the restaurant, the parents have been waiting for a long time, and the mother glanced at her with a little blame: "You have been delaying a long time, dear."
"Sorry, Mom." The girl rubbed her little nose and said embarrassed.
"Okay. We haven't waited long, have we?" Brian came out and rounded at this moment, followed Angela's praise and said, "It's still best this way, there is no previous elegance, but victory is lively. It's what a girl should be! "
"Thank the godfather." The girl grinned, jumping to her mother and sitting down
Elena didn't say much, and patted her hands gently. Soon the servants started serving. In the meantime, the adults started talking again. The father is on the top, with himself and his mother sitting on the left, and the godfather and concubine on the right, so the father and the godfather, mother and concubine talk about their respective topics.
Angela couldn't help feeling a little bored, but when she looked at her, there was always anxiety between her eyebrows, her eyes turned, and she suddenly thought of a topic. Taking advantage of the gap between the two, she suddenly smiled and said, "Dear Alas, when are you going to bring my future aunt? Do you want me to call her sister forever? "
Frank was embarrassed, speechless, and Elena beside the girl could not help yelling: "Kriss."
"It's okay, Mary, this is really something I didn't handle well." Frank let out his hand with a smirk. "I wish I was half savvy, but now ..."
"Well, sigh, don't say so poorly," Angela said with a smile, "I conceived a script for Sister Julia again."
"Conceived a script?" Frank narrowed his eyes, not fully understanding it yet.
"Yes, the name is" My Best Friend's Wedding "!" The girl raised her eyebrows proudly. She bit the words "best", "friend" and "wedding" very heavily.
Frank blinked his eyes, grasped the contents, and said impatiently, "Can you tell me the content? Dear?"
"Don't worry, hey, I just have a general idea. It will take a while to complete it." Angela said with a smile, and finally her face was positive: "I can only help you with this, hey, you There is no other way to be indecisive. "
"Okay, I know what to do, but ..." Frank shook his head helplessly, "I'm so shameless to be described as indecision by your little fellow!"
By this time the appetizers had been served, and Jennifer poured them for Charlton, 1984 in the cellar of Chateau Latour, France. Of course, Angela was still juice. Then Jared tapped the glass softly: "Okay, this is a small family feast, so it doesn't have to be so formal, we are all family, so we are all ready."
Followed him to raise the cup to the daughter: "Here, congratulations to my daughter, who won two Academy Awards trophies, and before that, your uncles and aunts have called to congratulate you , Now I convey for them, we are all proud of you! "
Angela listened with a smile until she heard her father say, "Your uncles and aunts are calling", the expression on his face was obviously darkened, but then he returned to normal. Several people around, mother, godfather, and uncle all looked at each other, but said nothing, toasted Jared together after her speech, and congratulated her.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." With the juice, Angela stood up with green eyes shining. "Thank you for your support. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have done this. I didn't thank you in the award speech. Because I know that it is not expressible in words. I just want to say that I love you. "
Talking, the girl left the seat, walked between the mother and father, and kissed their faces fiercely, making the parents laugh aloud, Brian and Frank could n’t help lowering the cup and laughing together. Get up. Following the girls raised the cups and touched their cups generously, and then drank the juice with one's head, and they looked very proud and dry, which made adults laugh again.
The family banquet officially started. Because he had eaten before night, chef Walter only made a few home-style side dishes. The appetizer was smoked guinea fowl salad. With hazelnut, spring radish, green snake fruit, but because the taste is heavier, so there is no Angela, but a fruit salad prepared for her separately; then the main course is Alaskan flounder and prawns, served with pinky potatoes, olive oil Dip in tomatoes; the final dessert is French toast.
These are the usual dishes, but they still look unusual with the best chefs. For example, smoked guinea fowl salad is added with some herbs when it is smoked. However, during the whole meal, the girls seemed a little absent-minded, and occasionally said that they had heard interesting stories at the award ceremony, but most of the time they listened quietly to the conversation between adults.
After eating, I took a paper towel and wiped the corners of my mouth. Angela stood up: "Mom and father, godfather, can I go back to the room?"
Jared and Elena glanced at each other, then Mom nodded. Kissed her forehead: "Okay. Go, dear."
Angela smiled. Then he pretended to bend his knees to the godfather and concubine, and then ran out of the restaurant with a giggle.
It wasn't until her daughter's footsteps went away that Elena stared at her husband again and shook her head gently. Brian couldn't help asking, "Hey, is there anything I don't know?"
The couple spread their hands together and did not speak. Brian had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, I know, you always treat me like this."
"It's not a big deal, Bly, they're just worried about Kris, you know, there was a lot of stuff going on a while ago." Frank explained.
"Do you need to worry?" Brian shrugged. "Did you all underestimate Chris, although she is only 14 years old, but I believe she can mediate soon."
"Yes, yes, I also believe that Mary and Jedi also believe, but this is not the main thing, understand?" Frank has been developing his career in Los Angeles, and naturally knows more clearly, "The key It's Angela's friends, those she values very much, you know, Bly? "
Brian closed his mouth, he already understood that the words of the giants, the royal family, and the behind-the-scenes team would not have much impact on Angela and her friends, but ...
"Hey, Mary, I think it's better to give a playmate." Frank said suddenly.
"Frank, I remember we talked about this topic a long time ago, and it already has results ..."
"Let your results go. It's different now. You want to give her ordinary life. I understand that you have done a good job, but since Kris entered the entertainment circle, ordinary people's lives have changed. No longer suitable for her, she will have to face more challenges and difficulties. Can you always encourage her by her side? There are always things she does not want to tell you. "Frank waved and said.
"Wait, what is an intimate playmate?" Brian interjected.
"Simply put, it is the nobles who choose for their children, um, shadows, play together, grow up, and learn together from childhood. They are your best partner, most loyal partner, and the closest relative to your parents. Just like my father's housekeeper, Mr. Gerrard, grew up with him; my current housekeeper, Lawrence, grew up with me; Mary's agent, Ida, who handles European affairs for her Wait, almost everyone in our family has such a partner, "Frank explained to him.
"But it seems a bit late now, Kris is 14 years old." Jared was a little emotional.
"No, it's not too late, we can find smaller ones and raise the requirements, such as ..." Frank was about to explain further, but was interrupted by Elena: "Well, Frank, this is not the time to say this! "
After a pause, she said again, "I'm going to see Chris."
