In the bar inside the Gramercy Hotel, in order to avoid being disturbed by others, Simon and Irene Lauder chose a booth in the corner.
However, after recognizing Simon's identity, not only the original guests in the bar came to greet him, but also probably because the news spread, many people gathered over.
Even though Simon ended up using the two bodyguards who were following him to block the guests who approached him to chat with him, it didn't stop the number of guests in the bar from getting more and more.
In less than ten minutes, even Irene Lauder realized that she couldn't stay any longer. She wanted to see some scandals about picking up girls in Westeros bars spread tomorrow. The guy opposite was married. Let's see how he would deal with it. However, if his identity is also recognized, the result will not be good.
Thinking of this, Irene Lauder looked across the way. A certain guy looked careless, as if he knew nothing about what was going on around him. He was leaning lazily on the booth sofa, holding a glass of whiskey in his hand. His eyes were looking at the empty space on the right side of her shoulder, as if she was in a daze.
If it's just staring at yourself, that's fine, even if it's facing those pretty girls in the bar.
What's the matter with staring at the air in a daze
After staring at him for a moment, Irene Lauder said: "Hey!"
Simon turned his eyes to her: "Huh?"
Irene Lauder said patiently: "What were you thinking about just now?"
Simon shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing. It's a rare time when you don't need to think about anything."
Irene Lauder keenly heard some fatigue from the man's casual tone. The unhappiness she had just aroused inexplicably dissipated a little, and asked: "Then what do you usually think about?"
Simon said: "There are too many, I can't explain them in one or two sentences."
Irene Lauder looked at the handsome face of the man opposite and asked in a strange way: "Then what will you think of when you see me?"
Simon said honestly: "Estee Lauder."
Aileen Lauder chased after her: "Then what?"
Simon said: "Various evaluations, whether it is worth investment, whether it is worth acquisition, the development prospects of the cosmetics industry, the future of Estee Lauder, etc."
Irene Lauder was curious about what Simon thought of the future of her company, but she said, "But, what I just meant was, what did you think of when you saw me?"
"Estee Lauder."
Irene Lauder almost threw the wine glass in her hand directly at the man opposite, and said angrily: "I mean, what do you think of me?"
"Oh," Simon nodded, looked at the young girl opposite who was wearing a white printed long-sleeved dress, and said, "You are very smart and work hard. Although you are strong on the surface, you are conservative in your heart. You can become a good orchid in the future. The successor of the Dai family."
Irene Lauder's eyes flickered and she subconsciously said, "Have you investigated me?"
Simon just shrugged, not bothering to answer the question.
Their brief interaction and some information in his memory allowed him to roughly summarize Irene Lauder's character, which he definitely couldn't tell the other party.
As soon as the question came out of her mouth, Irene Lauder felt a little regretful.
How silly.
Perhaps those guys who had ulterior motives for her would do some research in private in order to get close to her, but the man in front of her could not have such a motive.
Thinking of this, Irene Lauder still felt a little frustrated.
There are probably few people in this world who can remain proud in front of the young man in front of them.
Owning a majority of the shares of the Estee Lauder Group, the Lauder family's total assets have reached billions of dollars. They are considered to be the top group of people in the wealth pyramid in the world. However, such a fortune suddenly pales in comparison to the personal net worth of the young man opposite. It's a bit eclipsed.
She picked up the wine glass and took a sip to cover up her little embarrassment. She looked across the way and saw that a certain guy seemed to be careless again. She couldn't help but lean forward slightly and continued to ask with some teasing that even she was not aware of. : "So, what else?"
Simon noticed the change in the attitude of the girl opposite and said with a smile: "The girl is pretty good, maybe I can take her back tonight."
Irene Lauder froze for a moment, and quickly showed a look of disdain like "You finally showed your fox's tail" and said, "What if I can't take it back?"
Simon shrugged: "Then you can't take it back."
Suddenly he remembered the two girls standing beside him at the reception just now. Indeed, he obviously had no shortage of women. Understanding this, I suddenly felt a little unwilling to let him succeed, nor to let... other women succeed.
He raised his glass and drank the remaining wine slowly. He felt that he was finally a little drunk, so he looked over boldly and started talking drunkenly: "Then, shall we leave now?" Then he instinctively found a suitable one. Reason, he glanced at the growing number of customers around the bar and said, "If you don't leave, you will be logged into the gossip tabloids tomorrow."
Simon smiled and nodded: "Okay."
The two stood up, walked through the crowd and left the bar under the protection of bodyguards, and went directly to the hotel's underground parking lot.
After getting into the man's car and feeling the car start, Irene Lauder suddenly felt a little flustered. She was indeed a somewhat conservative woman, and it was really her first time to have a one-night stand with a man, especially a one-night stand with a married man.
He quickly found a topic, looked out the car window at the neon night view of Manhattan, and said, "Will we be discovered?"
Simon shook his head: "Even if it is discovered, someone will deal with it."
A lot of gossip in Hollywood seems to be very exciting, but in fact it can only be regarded as the tip of the iceberg of various materials in the entire industry. As long as a celebrity's agency and public relations team are not too incompetent, they can basically suppress most of the negative information. The gossip media will not explode all the information they get. Instead, they will often notify the person behind the star as soon as possible. The team negotiates an exchange of chips such as an exclusive interview or a direct monetary price.
This is true for celebrities. At Simon's level, unless someone wants to deliberately cause trouble, it is unlikely that any negative news related to him will appear in the media.
As Simon explained, he actually noticed Irene Lauder's uneasiness, and took the initiative to reach out and pull her body over. He grabbed the girl's chin with one hand, felt the tenderness of the skin on his fingertips, and lowered his head to kiss her.
Irene Lauder felt that the man had one hand around his waist, and one hand slid down from his neck. She was kissed carefully by the man, and she soon felt a sense of suffocation. Moreover, the strength in the man's hand seemed a bit strong. At one moment, she even felt that she might be crushed into pieces. The strength in her body disappeared without a trace, and her body was limp and allowed to be manipulated by the man. Only a trace of clarity was left for her to try her best to maintain breathing in order to avoid Death from suffocation.
It was already early the next morning when I woke up again.
I noticed the movement beside me, opened my eyes, and everything about last night quickly came into my mind.
Looking sideways, she saw that the man had already put on his clothes. Irene Lauder stood up slightly and wanted to pull up the sheets to cover her body, but hesitated briefly and did not do so.
Simon saw the woman on the bed standing up, buttoning her shirt, and said, "Morning."
"Morning." After saying this, Irene Lauder thought for a while, looked at the man and said seriously: "I, I don't intend to be your lover."
Simon smiled, walked over and hooked the girl's chin. After lowering his head, he quickly turned his head and kissed her on the cheek.
Irene Lauder also noticed the subtle changes in the man's movements. When he let go of her, she rolled her eyes and said, "You are such a bastard."
Although I said that, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that I took the initiative... to help him last night.
It must have been crazy.
The man in front of her just hinted slightly, and she obeyed his wishes.
Moreover, last night was her first time.
All for the first time.
As a devout Jewish girl, she has been taught by her parents to protect herself since she was a child. In addition, due to her family background, there are few people of the opposite sex that she likes, so she originally made up her mind that her body would only Give it to your husband on your wedding night.
I didn't expect that the guy in front of me would succeed.
Although I don’t regret it, I can’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Simon felt a little helpless when he heard the girl's scolding. He didn't have any virginity complex. He originally thought that it would not be the first time for a girl in her twenties, but he didn't expect that he would get into trouble.
What to say now
Will I be responsible for you
Be funny.
I originally made an appointment with Lawrence Fink to have dinner with me this morning, but depending on the situation, I couldn't just walk away. That would be really a bit of a bastard.
After buttoning the last button of his shirt, Simon ignored what the girl just said and asked, "What do you want for breakfast?"
He happened to remember that at last night's cocktail party, he made an appointment for breakfast with an executive of Cersei Capital, and asked, "Didn't you make an appointment for breakfast with someone?"
Simon said: "Just change it to noon."
I couldn't help curling my lips, and then I saw the neat clothes on his body. I looked around and remembered that my dress last night was torn to pieces by him in the living room downstairs. I immediately glared at the man again and said, "Then, What should I wear?"
Simon walked to the closet and searched, found a white shirt of his own and handed it over, saying: "Wear this first. You will look good in a white shirt. I will send some clothes over later."
He took the white shirt and subconsciously put it under his nose to smell it. Realizing that this action was a bit ambiguous, he quickly let go and pretended to be dissatisfied: "There is only one shirt?"
Last night, all her clothes inside and outside were 'destroyed'.
Simon smiled and said, "You want to try men's underwear?"
Although she thought that he might have women's underwear here, she had no intention of wearing his other women's underwear. She rolled her eyes at the man, put the shirt on her body, buttoned several buttons quickly, and got off the bed barefoot. She is not very tall, about 167cm, and looks just right in a man's loose shirt.
Then I felt a little overwhelmed.
Simon smiled and pushed the girl into the nearby bathroom, found brand new towels and dental equipment from the locker, and said, "You can take another shower, I'll go next door."
After the man left, she brushed her teeth carefully and washed her face briefly.
After thinking about it, I opened the locker on the washbasin again. In the top compartment were some common daily medicines. After searching around, I quickly found a bottle. I read the instructions on the bottle carefully to confirm that it was correct, and took out a bottle. He put the grain in the palm of his hand, hesitated for a moment, then put it in his mouth and swallowed it.
It's not that a certain thought didn't cross his mind.
After getting along last night, I unconsciously thought that being with him felt really good, and if we could stay together, it seemed to be a good choice.
What's more, I gave it to him for the first time.
As for him being married, there is no problem. Married people can get divorced. It seems that his wife is much older than him, so he and he are a good match.
It's just that you can feel what a strong guy he is. If you try to make him submit by getting pregnant, the results will only be very bad.
Once she is really pregnant, but the matter does not work out, the entire Lauder family will lose face.
What's more, she doesn't lack the pride she deserves in her heart.
Then I took a shower again, dried my hair and left the bathroom. More than half an hour had passed.
She still only had a white shirt and no shoes. Fortunately, the apartment was very clean. She left the master bedroom barefoot and wandered around in the corridor for a while. When she came downstairs, she met a baby-faced girl and was finally taken to Dining room.
Then it was discovered that there were at least three other girls in the apartment, the assistant Alison who was with him last night, the baby-faced girl Zoe, and another girl Isabel whose breasts made her a little envious.
In the restaurant, after Zoe and Isabel served breakfast and left, she half-jokingly asked the man opposite: "Is this why it doesn't matter if you couldn't bring me back last night?"
Simon smiled and said: "It's just that being surrounded by some beautiful girls will make you look pleasing to the eye and you will be in a good mood. Since I have the conditions, I certainly will not hire some middle-aged maids to wrong myself."
She rolled her eyes at him again, picked up the tableware and ate the fruit salad, and couldn't help but ask: "Just for reading?"
Simon nodded: "Yes."
Knowing that there was absolutely no need for him to lie to him, he didn't pursue him relentlessly.
But, you can be sure that he is definitely very carefree in private. This gave her another reason to draw a clear line with him as much as possible. She didn't want to devote herself to a man who was a playboy.
After eating breakfast and continuing to chat for a few words, Irene Lauder suddenly realized something. From last night to now, although she was the one asking questions most of the time, she seemed not to be able to answer his questions until now. Get a little bit of initiative in front of you.
After thinking for a while, he asked: "Oscar is tomorrow night, do you want to go back today?"
Simon nodded: "Yes."
After all, I don't want to let this guy go so easily. He will definitely attend the Oscars ceremony, and maybe bring his wife with him.
So he said: "I want to go to the Oscars, is that okay?"
Simon was very cheerful: "Of course, if you want to participate, I will prepare an invitation letter for you. By the way, remember to prepare a beautiful dress, otherwise you will be compared with others."
Um
Something seems wrong.
Isn't he afraid of meeting his wife at the award ceremony
Thinking of something, she asked: "Aren't you going to participate?"
Simon shook his head: "No, sitting in the awards hall for three hours actually doesn't feel good at all."
“…”
"So, do you still want to go?"
"go!"
