King of Hollywood

Chapter 217 Under the Sugar Coating

"How did it become like this, Annie?" Seeing her grabbing her leg like a candy, Adrian sighed, bent over and reached out to pinch her chin, lifting her face to his eyes.

The gushing tears drew ditches on her beautiful face. Even though she was only wearing light makeup, she was washed into a mess. Combined with the look of remorse, fear and pleading, she looked particularly miserable. Although there are some acting elements in it, most of them are still true feelings, and Adrian can see the unspeakable fear deep in her heart.

Indeed, for a celebrity, especially a famous celebrity, there is nothing that can scare her more than being ruined. After trying to live surrounded by countless flashing lights, all of this was suddenly deprived, and not only could it never be taken back, it was also spurned by everyone. This feeling is enough to make anyone with weak psychological ability commit suicide.

Well, now there is a very popular young actress with good popularity and a good reputation. Suddenly one day she is involved in a fraud case. The media said that she is very likely to be an accomplice of the fraudster, and it is possible even if she is not. After doing some help, the police also asked her to question her, and there was even an uproar among the fans. What should she do?

Under normal circumstances, no matter whether she is really innocent or not—of course, it is better to be innocent—as long as there is a good team of lawyers, everything is not a problem. A good lawyer team will use her fame to win sympathy and all favorable situations, such as letting her perform in front of the camera, and use some evidence to prove that she has only a normal relationship with the scammer. and returned some of the gifts she had accepted. Then 80% of this matter can be settled because of some private transactions.

Even if the court has to be held in the end, if the previous work is done well, it is not particularly difficult to get the jury to take her side. If the actress has public relations by her side, and they are smart enough, they can still get rid of the dust in this matter. After it's settled, create a new image for her, maybe it can even increase her reputation.

But what if it is an abnormal situation? Like a powerful tycoon who doesn't want to see her in Hollywood anymore, so where will things go? The media will make a lot of headlines about it, and she will be well-documented about her possible involvement. The police will also inadvertently reveal the tone of "there is no evidence to prove that she is innocent", and they will also put on a posture of planning to search the house, and the prosecutor is even preparing to prosecute... just make a statement, the following The people who will arrange these properly. And the best ending for her is to be imprisoned immediately, and fall from the clouds on the charge of a fraudster, never to go back in this life.

As for finding a good team of lawyers, let’s not talk about whether there will be a firm taking over in this situation. Even if there is a lawyer who really wants to take this opportunity to make a name for himself, it’s nothing more than struggling for a few days. The power held by the tycoon is not limited to fighting those lawyers in court, not to mention that she has come into contact with the tycoon's people in every aspect of her life from her agent to work and life. At that time, the punishment she faces will inevitably be heavier.

Therefore, when Anne, who was dizzy from the sudden blow, finally calmed down and thought about it all, and realized what kind of mistake she had made, she rushed over without hesitation, using the most despicable way Come to ask Adrian for forgiveness. Although her vision is not very good, her head is not stupid.

"Look at you now," Adrian frowned at this moment. "You know, I like the way you smile. You are really cute and beautiful like that, but if you grin , it will look very ugly. So you are like this, even though you are crying, it sounds very sad. But it seems that you really have no appetite. "

The flirty words were said in a cold tone, which seemed particularly merciless. Annie, whose face was full of tears, couldn't help but froze. She immediately came back to her senses, immediately lowered her voice, pursed her lips and kept sobbing, and then looked at Adrian with pleading eyes. Tears glistened in her iconic big eyes, and immediately gave off a very pitiful feeling. .

Sure enough, she is a woman who can go all out. Adrian chuckled in his heart, and just dragged Annie, who was crawling on the ground and hugged her legs, for a few steps, and finally made it to the single sofa she had been sitting on just now.

"I don't understand, am I that scary?" Adrian sighed as he leaned his elbows on the armrest of the sofa and looked down at Annie with his cheeks drawn.

Annie didn't answer, but just watched timidly, continuing to show her weak and helpless image.

Adrian shook his head and made a pitiful look: "Why don't you just tell me, Anne, if you tell me that you want to leave, will I not allow you to leave? Do you force yourself to stay by your side? Why are you sneaking around? And you found a... liar."

This is not a lie. Although Penelope's matter made him use it to scare chickens and scare monkeys, he also wanted to find an opportunity to show his generosity, so that no one would make irresponsible remarks about Natalie's matter in the future. Four, even though not many people actually know about it. It's just that God obviously doesn't intend to let him realize this wish, otherwise why would such a thing happen again?

I have to say that fate is really incredible sometimes. There have been too many changes, but some things still happened, but in a different way—this is one of the reasons why the unknown is both scary and attractive—— For example, that Italian liar Raffaello? Forelier hooked up Annie a year in advance, and she still foolishly hooked up.

It's really stupid, anyway, she also stayed with me for a while, her vision didn't improve at all, and she kept it secret, after being exposed by the newspapers, she always avoided seeing her, and now she was forced to the edge of a cliff, so she let go of everything and came over Please, don't you think it's a bit late?

"I...I..." Annie obviously didn't believe what he said, but how dare she say such a thing now?

"I don't know...and I'm worried too..." she murmured with her lips pursed, her eyelids drooping. Big drops of teardrops slid down from the corners of his eyes.

But this can't impress Adrian: "Worried? Don't be kidding. Don't you even have the courage to try? Since you can win the role for yourself by bumping into Gary Marshall, why don't you dare to ask?" one sentence?"

The weeping Annie's face turned even paler. She obviously didn't expect that her little actions would always fall into the other party's eyes.

"I'm scared, Ed, I'm really scared," she said hurriedly, her arms tightening around his calf, "I...I know...know about that Spanish woman...someone warned me I...so..."

"So you think you can fool around like this? You still plan to fool around when someone has already warned you? Do you think I'm a fool?" Adrian laughed, "Okay. You'd better go back , Anne, maybe it would be better to spend the time clearing up the relationship with your boyfriend."

Rafael Fleury was a fraudster in his previous life, how could he change in this life. What's more, his father is also a fraudster, and it is no more difficult for Adrian to deal with him than to crush an ant. Then, by the way, he got Anne in. As mentioned earlier, he showed some intentions, and various reports about her came out. The conviction of celebrities will inevitably increase their popularity. This is an era of eyeball economy.

For this short-sighted woman. He has nothing to say. He only got her because of his hobby of collecting. It’s no pity to throw her away now. If he wants to go to prison for a few years, let’s talk about it. American prisons will treat her well. .

"No no no! Ed, no! Listen to me, listen to me!" Annie yelled in a hurry, "I have nothing to do with Rafaro, I didn't sleep with him, I swear. I didn't! "

"You've had six appointments with him in Milan and New York in the past few months, two for dinner, two for the opera, one for a party, one for shopping—oh. And he gave you a piece Watch. And you went back to the same hotel twice, and now you tell me. You never slept with him..." Adrian sighed, looking at Annie who was lying in front of him, "It's okay not to be so small How about my IQ?"

"No, Ed, listen to my explanation, Ed, listen to my explanation," Annie continued to shout hurriedly, and if she didn't speak out now, it would be too late later, "I really didn't sleep with him, Ed, you want to Believe me, 4 dates he sent me back to the house or hotel and left, these journalists have taken pictures, there are photos to prove it! As for the two times in Milan, the first time he lived on the 8th floor and I I lived on the 14th floor. Although he hinted that he wanted to take me back to the room, I refused. The waiters in this hotel can testify! When I returned to the room, two waiters were coming out of one room, both around 30 years old. , one has Frank's name on the nameplate on his chest, and the other is shorter than him by a head, I remember it very clearly!"

She breathed heavily and seemed quite excited: "As for the other time, we lived on the same floor, and he wanted to go to my room again, or let me go to his room, but I still refused. This time there was no The waiter testified, but there are surveillance cameras in the corridors of that hotel! I noticed it! You can ask them to call up the surveillance video of that day, and you will know that I didn’t lie! Ed, I didn’t lie, I really Not sleeping with Rafaro!"

"Voice and emotion, very good." Adrian still had a flat appearance.

"You can make a transfer and you can ask for proof, Ed, it's not difficult, please, look at the photos taken by the reporters, let alone the photos of kissing, they don't even hold hands," Annie said in tears, "I really Not lying."

"Oh?" Adrian raised his eyebrows, and finally showed a little surprise. Well, she was right. The reporters did not take pictures of her kissing that guy, and almost no one holding hands.

But he still didn't make a statement, just looked down at her, and the sobbing Anne became more and more sad.

"I just thought... I just thought... Maybe I can use this way... to tell you... After all, you have so many women... You don't lack me..." Annie said with a sob, although she didn't say anything again. Crying loudly, but the pitiful appearance is more sympathetic than before, and it seems that what was said before is likely to be true.

But Adrian remains unmoved, and everyone will justify their actions, no matter what the circumstances. Statements made will be in your favour. It's instinct. Like what she said now, it should largely be her true thoughts-unless her acting skills are so perfect that she can even fool him-but when she agreed to Rafaro's date invitation, she didn't mean it. I don't have the idea of ​​finding a man who can still ask for it on my own, but can't control himself-this is why liars will succeed-I don't want to be like this now, I want to please a man among a bunch of women, anyway, development The foundation is already there.

"Please, Ed, I now know that I was wrong, and I was wrong very badly, please. Please have mercy, and give me another chance..." Annie begged again, "As long as you forgive me Me, just give me one more chance. Whatever it takes me to do."

"Whatever you do?" Adrian narrowed his eyes.

Annie froze for a moment, then revealed an ecstatic look, and immediately nodded desperately with tears in her eyes: "Yes, you can do whatever you want, whatever you do!"

"Whatever you do?" Adrian asked again with an emphasis.

The look of hesitation flashed across Annie's face. It was obviously not a good thing for him to ask so solemnly, but in just a second, she gave an affirmative answer: "Yes, you can do whatever you want."

There is only one chance, if you can't seize it. Then her fate will definitely not be much better than that Spanish woman, even if there are two ways to die in front of her, it is better to die later than immediately.

Adrian laughed happily. He thought of a good idea just now. If she had nothing to do with Fleury, as she swore just now, then he wouldn't mind giving her a chance, a small chance.

"I'll have someone verify your statement. Before that, the rumors will subside for a while. But they won't disappear completely, understand?" Adrian looked at Annie and said leisurely, "Then, I have a task to give you."

Think that's the end of it, dear Anne? You will know later. Not every option that seems to be the best at the moment will be the best option in the future. The sugar coating can also be poison.

Speaking of which, if Penelope had been so shameless back then... Adrian immediately shook his head and threw the idea away. That's impossible. If she can't pay a huge and shocking price, maybe in the future, opponents will attack their own women again and again, and some women whose feelings and interests are not particularly close, It is inevitable that you will be confused for a while.

It's a pity, but it's actually quite good to keep a pair of sisters who have been completely reduced to playthings in captivity.

This matter is here for the time being, marked by Anne's pleading at Adrian's home, the media's public opinion on this aspect began to change, and the police station claimed that although there is no evidence to prove that Anne Hathaway is completely innocent , but at the same time, there was no more evidence to prove that she was indeed involved in the Fraud case, which aroused many discussions for a while.

But this is none of Adrian's business. He is still busy with his new movie. After the initial high efficiency passed, the filming progress of "Indomitable Movement" slowly slowed down. Whether Jacques or Natalie, the time to maintain the initial state is getting shorter and shorter. When singing a song live, it takes several NGs to complete it.

These problems are not really any problems. It is impossible for a person to have smooth sailing all his life. Even Adrian, God's favorite, cannot have everything go his way. It is normal to have ups and downs, highs and lows. Moreover, the previous high efficiency made the shooting progress of the film very fast, and now it will not affect the overall progress if it slows down a bit.

And it's not that everyone is in a bad state. Rachel, who plays Vivienne, has always performed well. On the one hand, Adrian used her suggestions, so she naturally has to try her best to express herself and prove that her suggestions are correct. Of course, she doesn't know that the more she is like this and the better she interprets this role, the less likely this role will be well received after it is released.

On the other hand, it is natural to be played to death by Adrian on the bed. Although the actual number of times in bed is not much, Rachel McAdams is not a simple-minded woman. Now that she has decided to further fight for herself The opportunity, of course, is to fully cooperate as before, no matter under the bed or on the bed.

Well, leaving this aside for the time being, in late October, the good news came that after half a year of hard work, Gwyneth was finally pregnant.

"You know, Eleanor, you will have a partner soon, do you want a younger brother or a younger sister?" At the villa in Santa Monica where Blanchett, Gwyneth, and Liv live together Here, Adrian hugged the two-year-old Eleanor, glanced at Gwyneth who was talking happily with Blanchett and Liv, and asked about the daughter in her arms.

It's been two weeks since I was pregnant, so I calculated it carefully, and if I'm right, it should be the foursome. Although Gwyneth hurriedly started the human-making movement with Adrian after finally successfully reaching the summit without controversy, you must know that the three of them are basically one, so Blanchett He and Liv give her a few one-on-one opportunities with Adrian at most, and don't give up an inch at other times.

It's not that Gwyneth didn't want to fight for more, and she also frightened Liv to be careful of unwanted pregnancy, but this time Blanchett gave Liv support, so she could only compromise in the end, all the essence of the foursome, In the end, it will all stay in her body. Unexpectedly, this was really successful. Gwyneth would have to be teased by Liv for a while, but judging by her current appearance, she was immersed in the joy of pregnancy, so she definitely wouldn't care.

At this time, Eleanor opened her beautiful blue eyes wide, and looked at her father with puzzled eyes. For her, it was too early to understand the meaning of this question, but this did not prevent her from answering question.

"Sister!" She nodded her head and said seriously. (To be continued..)
