King of Hollywood

v2 Chapter 301: Why not tell the truth?

"Hey! Let's see it first!" When Natalie wanted to take a bag of paper from the shelf, suddenly she stretched out her hand to grab it, and Memy next to her called out immediately. .

"Oh?" The brown-haired girl with the shopping basket snatched the paper and turned away. She looked very beautiful in a simple but refreshing outfit, standing among the girls. After raising her eyebrows at Natalie, she said lazily with a slight contempt, "I'm sorry, Her Majesty, we didn't notice that you were here."

The girls who followed her laughed in unison, and all looked down.

"Please forgive me for your mistakes, Your Majesty," the brown-haired girl continued with the look, "but I don't think you would mind if I took this bag of papers, do you know? We welcome the welcome new How big is the membership party and how much paper is needed. Of course, if you want, I can invite you to watch instead of Camilla. "

"Don't be so childish, Diana, you look like a little girl who hasn't grown up and likes to show off her toys!" Memmy said sarcastically, she would have said a few more words, but Natalie stopped her .

"It's yours, Diana, but allow me to remind you," Natalie said in a serious manner. "All royal expenses must be reported to the council, so I must indicate in the documents to them, This bag of paper is passed on to you. "

After that, she shrugged and pulled Meme away without giving the other party a chance.

"It's stated in the document that it was given to you, oh my god, I really want to stay there to admire Deanna's expression, it must be very interesting." Memy laughed.

"No, although Diana is public, she is also one of the few people with a little head in the sisterhood. Even if she is unhappy, she will not show it." Natalie said in a flat tone.

"Don't you care, Natalie?" Meme asked curiously.

"Why should I care about them? Yes, they are rich and appealing, but do we need to please them?" Natalie shrugged.

Brotherhood and sisterhood have always been traditional organizations in American universities, or students may not have the power, but students who join them can easily build their own connections as long as they have the ability, so children of the top class should be in college. Members of the organization, and most of the children of the lower and middle classes are scrambling to get in.

Generally speaking, children in rich families, especially those who are connected to each other, are easy to get in, but children in the lower middle class are not so easy. They will face all kinds of strange and weird pranks, and these are part of the test of membership. If they fail, they will not be able to enter the fraternity or sisterhood.

You know, brotherhood and sisterhood are in the hands of the children of rich people. Among these people, there is no lack of elites, but more of them are still aunt. Therefore, it is common for these middle and lower-level students to enter for fun, and it is normal for them to look down on other students. A small conflict like today began when Natalie entered Harvard.

After all, not many people were known throughout the United States and even the world before entering school-even if the newly released prequel was criticized by many Star Wars **** fans, Natalie is indeed well known for this movie-anyone will have a psychological discomfort When it is balanced, even those rich children who have been eating and drinking since childhood. But because of this, Natalie also did not take them to heart. As she told Memy, is it necessary to please them?

"Let me see, a blank notebook," People "magazine, ketchup ... that's about it, let's go back." Mei Mi said after turning around in the convenience store and finding everything she wanted to buy.

"Wait, there's this." Natalie removed something from the shelf and threw it into the shopping basket.

"Yes, the potato chips that Verina wants." Memy laughed and was about to make a few jokes, and the voices of the previous girls suddenly drifted into the ears diagonally from the other side of the cargo rack.

"Speaking of, what's so good about that bitch,‘ report all expenses to the parliament ’? Does she really think she is the queen?” This was the voice of one of the girls.

"Unfortunately, she really is. Now everyone in the United States knows that she is Queen Amidala." This was Diana's voice.

"Oh, come on, it's just a star," said a girl's voice. "Do you know, I returned to New York a week ago to participate in the MTV Awards ceremony, and saw her and that ... with the famous Hollywood dude Adrian Cowell was affectionate at the ceremony. "

"No, right? I heard she was born in a conservative Jewish family and listened to her parents." An incredible voice sounded.

"It's too normal. Before you really know someone, you can never know what she really is." Dianna's voice rang again, and she was lazy again, as if she was holding something. And proud.

"These bitches." Memy whispered, and wanted to remind her aloud, reminding these stupid people talking about others behind the scenes, but Natalie stopped again.

She shook her head calmly at her, then walked along the goods rack to the checkout counter. Memy sighed, and immediately followed her.

"They are too much, how can they say this to others," Mei Mi said gruntly on the way back, "as if we were provoking them!"

"It's normal, they're the kind of person, and the mistake is always someone else." Natalie shrugged indifferently.

"Then you shouldn't watch them making rumors?" Meme frowned.

"Don't worry, Memy, believe me, have I attended the MTV Awards ceremony a week ago, the tabloids must be clearer than them." Natalie chuckled.

"That's ..." Meimi's eyes lit up, but she looked at her with some hesitation soon.

"Just ask what you want." Natalie glanced at her.

"Um ..." Memmy smiled a little embarrassed, but still asked: "I remember, your first work seems to be in collaboration with Adrian Cowell, right? And there is news Say that Amidala's role is also recommended by you, so ... then ... "

"What do you think?" Natalie laughed, turning her head to look at Meme with a joke.

Memy coughed, then lowered her head.

"But you can think about it," Natalie said suddenly, and then her friend looked up in surprise.

"My first work did work with him, and the role of Amidala was indeed recommended to me. Regardless of the gossip and gossip, he is indeed a very attractive man. Maybe I can try it next time. And date him. "Natalie laughed out of spite, albeit irritably.

Meme laughed immediately, and gave her a stern glance: "Okay, okay, I won't talk about this topic again."

The two girls returned to the dormitory in such a noisy manner, and after a few more chats, Natalie entered her bedroom. The moment the door was closed, the original smile disappeared and the entire face sank. Come down.

It took a few seconds for her to calm down, and then her frown frowned. She had thought that she could wait again ... Walked back and forth twice in the room, closed her eyes and carefully recalled, and sorted out all the plans again, there should be nothing wrong, so she quickly made up her mind.

"Ed?" Natalie opened her mouth for the first time, then frowned, at this time you should wait for the other party to ask questions first.

But the people over there didn't hear anything, and the tone came very briskly: "Hi Na, it's really nice to receive your call, you know, I miss you again."

"Are you in Los Angeles now?" Natalie asked directly.

"Yes, I just came back from London. You know, the casting of" Harry Potter "is over, and I will start filming soon. I have to go over and see for myself. By the way, bring Kayla from London, here There is a character that suits her very well. Then I ’m going to New Zealand soon, and the shooting there will continue. ”Adrian answered with a smile.

"Are you free now?" Adrian reached out and brushed the hair in his ears, his voice was smooth, and he had completely controlled his emotions.

"Of course, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Some things ... I want to talk to you?"

"Did something happen?"

"No, in fact, I had the idea to talk to you before, but I always felt that it was not appropriate. After calming down and thinking carefully, I finally sorted out my ideas, so ... the day after tomorrow is the weekend, and tomorrow I'm going to an event in Los Angeles. If you can, can you give me some time on the weekend? "

"……no problem."

After turning off the phone, Natalie took a long breath and now there is one last step left, as long as she can pass ...

The weekend came as expected, and the already lively Cambridge City was even more lively. The Brotherhood and Sisterhood began to decorate their party venues in preparation for a carnival, but Natalie had already gone to Los Angeles. That charity event was not big, so I slept in the hotel that night, got up and adjusted a little, and waited for my best to go to Adrian's mansion in Beverly Hills.

"Why are there so few people in the room?" Although Adrian followed the living room and went upstairs, he saw few maids along the way, let alone his secretary assistant or the "near maid".

"Because you are coming." Adrian turned and smiled.

Natalie couldn't help laughing. Although she hadn't been here many times in the past few years, every time she came over Adrian would let others leave to prevent anyone from seeing her. Time passed really fast. A few years passed, and I have to say that Adrian was sometimes attentive ... She soon noticed that her thoughts were floating, and then she converged.

"Would you like something to drink?" Adrian opened his wine cabinet when he came to the study. "How about Romani? Conte in 1977? Pure and soft."

"No, Ed." Natalie sat down and smiled.

"That's not okay. Drinking a proper amount of red wine can be cosmetic, even if you are already beautiful." Adrian said, turning his head and making a gurgling noise.

For a moment, Natalie wanted to laugh, but then she controlled herself, many times like this, and was unknowingly guided by his words. This cannot be done today, or she may be let her A shortfall of success.

"Ed!" She exclaimed.

"Okay, okay," Adrian sighed, and closed the wine cabinet behind the desk. "So, what's the matter? You dress so formally, don't you want to break up with me?"

His tone was joking, but Natalie nodded solemnly: "Yes!"

Adrian was clearly confused, and seemed a little overwhelmed. Natalie continued: "I know this is sudden, but I really think we should end our relationship. This is not because of impulse. The choice you make is the result of deliberate thinking. "

She looked up and looked at him with sincere eyes: "We had a great time, Ed, I never denied this, although ... but I didn't regret it, I like to be with you and chat with you , Shopping, playing, you can always catch my mind, I am really happy. But ... somethings are always bothering me ... I know you have a lot of women, I also know you know I know you have a lot of women, But you ... never mentioned this to me, not even a little hint.

I don't know what you are thinking, Ed, although I have tried hard to understand, you always give me a feeling of ... full of fog, I can't catch you. I have been waiting, waiting for your explanation and comfort, even if I know that you will not give up others for me, but you always keep silent in this area ... After hesitation, I finally choose to give up, I do not want to be you Accessories in life, I don't want to compete with you for some women, so ... sorry. "

She exhaled, staring upright at Adrian, waiting for his response. The smile had long disappeared from his face. While listening to her, Adrian was a little surprised, then frowned, but finally returned to peace. He was sitting behind the desk with his hands folded in front of him. Looking at her motionlessly, her dark eyes gave a deep feeling, as if no one could find anything out of it.

Facing this indescribable gaze, Natalie's fingers on the armrest couldn't help rubbing lightly.

After so long, Adrian finally opened his mouth. His voice was very soft, but the words he said were not very soft: "Why not tell the truth, Naa?"

Natalie didn't respond, just stared at her without blinking. She had already said what she had to say. A rash response would only call the initiative of the discourse into the other hand.

"I admit that there are indeed a few reasons why you would choose to end," Adrian did not wait, and spoke again soon. The voice was still very soft, like it came from Skyrim, it was unpredictable. "But the main thing The reason is not this, you will choose to end because-you think that you will not get more from me, or that you will get much less from me than you lose! "

Natalie still watched him silently, but squeezed her hands slightly.

"You have always been a very special girl, smart, precocious, confident, and ... proud," Adrian continued, calm as if he had no emotions. "You can always adapt to your surroundings quickly, knowing that you have to How to achieve your goals, even if you face difficulties, you can quickly find a solution, such as-obtaining a second audition opportunity through the agent familiar with the director, or drawing relationships with the director to maintain their own Advantage, while planning for the future, even if he knows he has many problems.

But this is not your ultimate goal. What you want deep inside is unique. What you want is unrepeatable. What you want is Natalie Portman first, not Audrey Hepburn second! Keeping a close relationship with this director has really brought you a lot of benefits, and the director is really very good at holding people. After he started directing the movie, Oscars were born from the hands of you, and you believe that sooner or later One day I can reach this throne.

But you soon discover that there are many disadvantages, because he is very cautious, and almost all women who have worked with him have **** with him. If that's the case, you won't take it to heart, anyway, your goal is not here, but the question is, what will others think? Especially after you already have an actress who can take an Oscar, it's because the gossip that served him comfortably in bed has spread, you are more and more certain that you must change.

You do n’t want to be said to be like this in the future. Although you already know that this is the norm in the entertainment industry, you do n’t care too much. The interest is the most important thing, but you never want to be treated by the public. talk. Because, you are proud, you are not willing to be side by side with others, you can endure the ebb of your career, you can hone yourself for acting, but you can't stand your own honor being taken lightly!

It ’s easy to leave him, because I ’ve heard it from others in private ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ He said that if his woman wants to leave, she ’ll never block it if she says it clearly, and it ’s almost the same. of. But the problem is that if you leave immediately, you will lose a lot of opportunities, and you won't understand what an opportunity means. And because of various reasons such as family, although you have some good works, you can only count as a second-line actor for a long time, even that director cannot temporarily change this. So you have been waiting patiently until the pre-screening of the Star Wars prequel and Harvard approved your application.

By referring to the SAT and AP and receiving the AP Scholar Award and published papers, you have successfully established a distinctive actor image, beautiful and intelligent; and the release of the prequel to Star Wars made her name resound throughout the United States, thus Gathered a lot of popularity. More importantly, there are two more to be produced after the prequel of Star Wars. You do n’t have to worry about your popularity and commercial value for a long time. You can cooperate with other directors to march towards Oscar without having to depend on it. To that guy.

At the same time, the nomination for the best supporting actress at the beginning of the year is certainly an honor, but it also sounds the alarm for you. If you continue, the most worrying thing is likely to become a reality, so after a good preparation, just a little stimulation is enough You have made a showdown decision. "

Having said that, he finally sighed softly and watched her shake her head, as if sad and regretful: "You are realistic, Nay."
