Hollywood Secret Garden - v4 Chapter 102
someone said. Speaking is a common practice. When to say what. What to say is very important in interpersonal communication. This sentence is both correct and incorrect, or in other words, although it is universal, it still has scope. For example, when I was chatting with Ms. Milani or Ms. Babe, I had to make them feel a more real me, otherwise how could they trust their daughter to me? Similarly, there are still things that they cannot say because we cannot predict how they will react. Isn’t it interesting? Just two visits proved and disproved this view from two aspects
When Angela was talking so loudly, candlelight was flashing in the empty restaurant, accompanied by the melodious and soothing piano sound, and the pleasant atmosphere slowly flowed around. That’s why Angela was talking about these inexplicable things with such enthusiasm, but unfortunately the three subjects she spoke were not listening at all.
“Do you know that the Chanel store on Madison Avenue recently came up with the latest summer dress? Although it is only a change in details compared to the previous one, you will immediately notice the difference when you wear it. . “
“Really? I have to go when I have time
“I have to regret to tell you, dear Manny, the latest style may make your heart better.
“Me? How did you come to that conclusion, Liv? Frankly, I don’t like Chanel’s style very much.
“Don’t forget that my profession is modelling, and I think my vision should be better than someone
“A little stronger than someone? Then why isn’t it more suitable for someone?”
“Well,” some clothes will naturally be known, if you have time, go and see how
“Oh Liv, you’re so sad that you ignored my existence. It’s too bad.”
“Of course not, Manny, I just said that there is one that works best for you, just go and have a look.
Seeing these three chatty guys, Angela rolled her eyes and sighed, and tapped the glass with a spoon: “Hey ladies, it’s not a good habit to ignore other people’s conversations.”
Natalie finally stopped talking and looked at Angela with a smiley expression.
“Sorry, Angie, it’s not that we should ignore you, but that you always talk about some inexplicable topics.” Natalie was as if she had done something normal before.
“Can you ask me? What’s the inexplicable topic?” Angela put down her knife and fork, put her hands under her chin with her hands crossed, and stared at Natalie with dangerous eyes. It seemed that Natalie would die if she didn’t give her an explanation. deal. “You took the revolving restaurant of the Empire State Building and invited us to have a bird’s eye view of Manhattan for dinner, but all night we said something about the art of speaking. Things like that, and they’re always analyzed from a very subjective point of view. “Do you think we’re here tonight to hear you say that? … Natalie’s eyes are ridiculous.
“Yeah, when talking to my mother, she was clearly unsophisticated from start to finish, and she even said that this is the most true of me Scarlett’s grinning.
“No wonder she was in my house. She always smirked and rarely spoke. Liv nodded thoughtfully.
Angela’s face couldn’t help getting darker and darker. At the same time, she was a little bit aggrieved. She grabbed the knife and fork and grumbled across the plate as if she had been abandoned.
“Well, don’t talk about this, what does Angie think of Li Fucai’s point of view? At last, Scarlett hit the round.
After dinner, a group of people secretly left the Empire State Building. There was no way to make Angela’s release in “Mist” almost a month. It was still attracting attention, even if she did not participate in the propaganda as usual, and rarely participated in interviews on the cover. . As some people have said, as long as it’s linked to her name, that’s the best publicity.
“Now, should I take you back or come back to the hotel with me?” After sending Scarlett and Liv back home, Angela, who was sitting in her seat, bent her eyes and looked at Natalie, “or” I came to you Where to live? “
“Take me home, thank you,” Natalie answered with a smile, without question.
“Why?” Angela’s face suddenly collapsed. “Mother Xia Xia? I already explained it to you.”
“Mist” was released in the UK, and the crew naturally came to promote it, and Natalie came to the UK with it. It happens that Angela is also in the UK. Even if she often does not participate in publicity work, she happens to run into her own work. If she does not attend, she is definitely not justified. Xia Xia also followed, and Angela participated in the filming of the Harry Potter crew. And her relationship with Xia Xia is basically well known. Kate and Kyla can attend. Why can’t she?
Although Xia Xia’s harassing actions avoided the eyes of ordinary people, they could not escape the eyes of Angela’s lover. Although it was long known that they were unclear, but at that time everything was not settled, so Nata Li didn’t care about it. But now it is different. Angela has promised her. Although she acquiesces to Kate, their presence does not mean that Angela can be tolerated without limit. So when in the UK, Angela didn’t give much good looks in private.
“It’s true, but not all. Unexpectedly, Angela shook her head.
“Then what else?” Angela was busy holding her lover’s arm. “Tell me, later
Koyama noticed. “
Natalie turned her head, seeing her serious look and covering her forehead with a bitter smile.
“Are you an idiot?” Natalie said with some angry and funny hate. “Aren’t you very smart? Haven’t you always understood? Why is your head suddenly unconscious today? When you pack the restaurant but at the same time Invite the three of us, “God, I can’t believe you’re doing such a stupid thing, and you’re asking me what’s wrong!” “
“But” everyone has been dining together many times in Luo Shanfan’s villa. “Angela asked weakly.
“It’s different!” Natalie glared at her, moved her lips and said nothing but said nothing.
“Actually, I know.” Angela sighed after a few seconds of silence. “Just”, I just “I was just trying to get you to communicate. If you could get your parents to agree once, do n’t So troublesome. “
After hearing this, Natalie froze slightly, holding Angela with her head on her shoulder a few seconds later: “Don’t worry, even if it is bad, some things will not change, never . “
Angela didn’t say any more, just clutched Natalie’s hand tightly for a long time.
“That being the case, can I stay with you tonight? Say okay with them and stay with you these days in New York.”
“Don’t even think about it! Don’t think that you can pass this way!”
Some things will always be like this, and hope is always inversely proportional to the actual situation, such as the cowboy president desperately seeking to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq before stepping down, or those real estate agents who are struggling in the subprime mortgage crisis We can release the house in our hands as soon as possible. Unfortunately, Angela is facing such a thing now.
“Please go back, Miss Mason.” After a long silence, Ivner finally opened his mouth. He didn’t see Angela just making a please gesture, but from the changing title, he can see how bad his mood is. .
Shirley looked at her husband and daughter a little bit worriedly, while Natalie yelled at her dad softly.
“That’s it, I don’t want to talk about this anymore.” Effner shook his head. Although he has been trying to suppress his emotions, he can still hear his excitement in his tone, “I will not agree to this request!”
“You don’t have to make a decision so quickly” Angela tried to persuade, but Ivner interrupted her suddenly with a rashness: “There is no room for negotiation, Miss Mason! If not for the old Mr. Chrysler For your sake, I’ve driven you out! Don’t you have anything you deserve? “
Fortunately, he kept a certain degree of calmness and closed his mouth in time, but his chest was constantly undulating, and he looked very angry. Although Angela’s face became a little ugly in his last sentence, he adjusted it and nodded and got up: “In this case, I will leave for the time being, but I will not give up.”
Evner couldn’t help recovering, but Shirley calmed him in time, and Natalie quickly pushed Angela out of the living room.
“You shouldn’t say that last sentence.” Natalie murmured after coming outside, her eyes full of anxiety.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen.” Angela looked very open-minded, “It’s normal, do it …”
She made an “old stubborn” gesture, and at the same time gave a playful and funny grin, Natalie could not help laughing, and then groaned, “Don’t say that to my father.”
“Okay, just don’t say it.” Angela shrugged, ignoring the street just a few feet away, and reached out and brushed Natalie’s hair. “I went back first, and remember to give me news every day. Can go to trouble Grandpa. “
“I know.” Natalie nodded, also disregarding the street and bodyguards standing beside the car a few feet away, tiptoeing and printing her lips on Angela’s face.
Bid farewell to Angela, who was sitting in the car, and instructed the bodyguard to pay attention to the paparazzi. She raised her arms and meditated. Frankly, although she had expected that Ivner ’s reaction might be fierce, she still did not expect it to At this level, almost all possibilities were rejected at one sip. It seems that even persuasion will not do much.
Sure enough, after the smooth, there must be Canco. Angela smiled a little self-deprecatingly. She rubbed her chin for a long time, and after confirming that she was not followed by paparazzi, asked the bodyguard to turn to Grandpa’s villa, even if they had left Long Island at this moment.
In this case, it should be prepared in advance. Angela was thinking so in her heart.
Grandpa and Grandma were not surprised by her arrival, even if Angela carefully offered to stay here for a few days. Although it’s not clear if they already knew anything, Angela didn’t take it too seriously. Grandpa’s side won’t be able to contact Grandpa until she gave her a phone call, and they’ll know it sooner or later.
A few days later, the result was unexpected, and even if Natalie had a quarrel with her father, he could not shake Mr. Ivner’s opinion. However, Mrs. Shirley was difficult to be a man sandwiched in the middle. On the one hand, she did not agree with her daughter’s choice on the one hand, but she was worried about the conflict between her daughter and her husband.
Forget it, you still have to ask Grandpa, it was a failure. After finishing the latest call with Natalie, Angela muttered in her heart and walked to Grandpa’s study. Normally he would read there at this time. “Please come in.” After knocking on the door, it came to Grandpa.
“Hi grandpa. I hope it didn’t bother you.” Angela, who entered the door, greeted with a smile.
“Of course not. In fact, I have been waiting for you for a long time.” Grandpa smiled gently, but his eyes hidden behind the reading glasses did not know what kind of light was flashing.
“Really?” Angela sat down at the desk, and then she remembered asking her grandfather what she had said to her grandpa.
Forget it, what to say. The moment she sat on the chair, Angela squeezed her fists.
“It’s not a good habit, Chris.” Grandpa said casually, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.
“Dear grandpa, please believe that I wouldn’t bother you if I hadn’t tried everything.
“Angela said slowly, in the most sincere tone, considering the words.
“Have you tried everything?” Grandpa raised some gray eyebrows.
“Now Mr. Ivner has refused me to go to their house.” Angela let out her hand helplessly.
Grandpa groaned and then said again: “Frankly, Kris, you have given me a problem.”
Angela didn’t speak, but just looked at the old man nicely. She didn’t look like a mature woman in flight.
“I didn’t expect you to find that old guy to be a lobbyist. Really,” Grandpa said with a crossed hands, and looked at Angela seriously, “Kris, how much do you know about our traditional etiquette and customs. “
“This” is quite rare. “Angela hesitated and decided to tell the truth,” You know, grandpa
“Yes, I know.” Grandpa nodded a bit discouraged. “Jaddy the guy”
Angela lowered her head and covered her mouth. Whenever she talked about this topic, she always wanted to laugh. Father and grandfather clearly said, “Okay, let’s talk about this later, first to solve the most important thing.”
“If it’s really inconvenient” it doesn’t matter “Angela adjusted her mood, looked up and watched Grandpa start to use his killer copper,” I and I will try our best to fight, but if it doesn’t work, we have to give up. You should know that we may not ask for anyone ’s consent, but if we really give up, it is definitely a cruel thing to say, but there are certain things that we will never compromise! “
Grandpa took a long breath and stared at Angela behind the desk. Angela didn’t shy away. She knew that Grandpa knew that she was using this method to force him, but she didn’t feel guilty or something, because what she said was true!
“I have to say, you and your father are really similar here, Kris.” Grandpa made a gesture. “In fact, I was with your grandma.” It seems to be genetic. “
The old man made a small joke, but Angela didn’t laugh, and her attention went to the phrase “I was with your grandma”. Think about the grandma’s half-Chinese ancestry, the granddaughter who had never seen a dragon, and the experience of staying at Jinling Women’s University in the 1950s, although he was very young. “This is a big gossip!”
However, she quickly pulled her attention back, no matter how to solve the immediate problem before talking about it.
“Albert said that your parents didn’t know about it yet, is that so?” Grandpa asked suddenly.
Angela nodded and couldn’t help but said, “Yes.”
“Why not tell them first?” Grandpa asked with interest. “Because I don’t want them to know for the time being” Angela’s sudden blessing to her heart, “and I don’t think they can help me much here.”
“Oh?” The eyebrow on Grandpa’s right was raised high. “That’s not wrong.”
Then he laughed lowly and muttered, “You can’t grab me anymore this time, Jay!”
Although Grandpa’s voice was very light, the room was quiet and Angela’s ears were more sensitive, so I listened to it without a word, and then I felt a lot of sweat. Grandpa is so old, and still so vanity? !!
“It’s nothing. In Chinese, it’s an old child. The older the child, the more like a child. Don’t be too surprised. He is just digging at his son and trying to find his face elsewhere.” Granny replied in this way, and then Angela was sweating again, daring to feel that she was just an object of wrestling …
Of course, these are all future things. Although Angela now wants to laugh hard after listening, she still has to pretend that she hasn’t heard anything, and then looks at Grandpa with a little hope and uneasiness.
“Well, I’ll try to talk to Effner. But don’t put too much hope.” Grandpa said finally, “Everyone has something they insist on.”
“I understand” Angela nodded. “Thank you, grandpa. I’ll do the worst.”
Although Grandpa and Effner’s family have a good relationship, although Grandpa’s prestige is also sufficient, people always have what they insist on, so if Mr. Effner still does not agree, Grandpa cannot force him to agree, so the worst preparation is It is necessary to do. What was surprising, however, was that after talking to Grandpa twice, Mr. Ivner actually changed his mouth!
It’s finally early today, because we need to adjust the time, and once again, the update will be irregular next month, see
