"I sent it back to redo it because I thought you could be a better match, not a bad match," Angela said lazily, leaning back into the high-back chair, "I thought you knew the difference between the two. The difference, Kate."
"Of course, you perfectionist," said the same languid voice over the phone, "and I know what you're thinking other than that, don't think you tortured me enough while filming, did you?"
"Don't say that, dear, if I don't think it's tortured enough, I'll let you go to Boston to dub instead of Los Angeles." Angela corrected with a smile, but Kate sneered at it: "It should be said that you are afraid of being me Revenge, Miss Genius? Unless you have a bottle of whisky with you at all times."
Angela could almost hear the other party's teeth grinding, and although she was amused, she was more resentful. If you threaten me again, you will really take whisky with you at any time! She screamed in her stomach. Of course, she can only slander, if she really wants to say it out of her mouth, with Kate's personality, she will definitely book a plane ticket immediately.
"The movie has been edited three-quarters of the way. To be honest, your performance is quite good and Russell is not inferior. I am now thinking about whether to apply for an Oscar for best supporting actress." Angela switched. topic.
"So in the end, do you want to hit the best supporting actress? Or the best actress?" Kate said sarcastically.
Angela rolled her eyes: "How about taking both? It will definitely cause a sensation."
"Excellent idea, let's start planning to kidnap the relatives of the judges now." Kate said seriously.
"Okay, no kidding," Angela shook her head. "According to the current progress, I will go back to Los Angeles to prepare for the preview in the middle of this month at the latest. When you watch it, you will know that I am definitely not exaggerating."
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you." Kate's light laughter came from there, and then she seemed to hesitate for a while before sighing and said: "Angie, if we have time, let's go out together. Is it okay to travel for two weeks?"
The girl holding the phone couldn't help but be stunned, while Kate continued to say to herself: "We can rent a small island in the Caribbean or Hawaii first - if we are worried about being discovered by someone, we can also go to the Mediterranean Sea. Surf during the day. Swimming at night, chatting and playing games, and enjoying a life of two people in a completely undisturbed world. Then go skiing in Nordic ski resorts or visit places of interest around the world…”
Listening to Kate's words, Angela's hand holding the microphone couldn't help but tighten, and after a while, she sighed in her heart and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it won't work for a long time. You know, I have both ends and I don't want to give up. ."
Speaking of this, she suddenly raised her voice again: "But, there will be time, Kate, I promise."
"It's okay, I said I'll go when I have time anyway," Kate still chuckled, not upset about it. "Okay, that's it, I can't wait to see you in Los Angeles."
After putting down the phone, Angela stared at the desktop in a daze for a while. In fact, if she wanted to, it would be perfectly fine to hold the preview in Boston so that the Nashes wouldn't have to go to the West Coast. However... Angela insisted on holding it in Los Angeles for much the same reason that she was careful to avoid Liv when she went to New York to watch Natalie's stage play.
No, it's not the same... Angela shook her head to find the difference, but she found that there didn't seem to be a difference in essence. The girl sighed and put her head on the table, just at this moment the phone on the desk rang again.
"Hello, may I ask..." Angela, who habitually asked after picking up the phone, opened her mouth before she could finish speaking, with surprise and a little bit of complexity in her eyes: "Jesse? I didn't expect you to call me at this time. Telephone."
Although they usually talk on the phone, most of Jessica calls Angela after she returns to the villa, and rarely chooses her class or work time, especially now that it is rare to call her in the office. few.
"I read today's newspaper, and I'm a little… worried about you." Jessica's voice was hesitant, and Angela could completely picture the blushing girl on the phone in her mind.
"Nothing to worry about, dear Jesse, you know those guys are masters of taking things out of context. It's normal to pick bones out of an egg if they want." Angela didn't break her mind, using a carefree Tone said, "I just said 'For a genius like Nash, it is boring and thankless to pay attention to and argue about the places that are already controversial', but they can actually interpret it as 'Miss genius' Gu Ying feels sorry for herself! It's impossible to admire them or not. If it wasn't for those big media still keeping restraint, I would really consider applying to the court to keep these guys at least 500 feet away from me!"
"Angie, actually I want to say..." Jessica patiently listened to her complaining and vented for a long time, she managed to find an opportunity to interject, and was interrupted by Angela after half a sentence: "To be honest, I I think I should use my influence to find a way to persuade lawmakers to pass a law on malicious interpretation of other people's speech! Although the First Amendment of the Constitution guarantees freedom of speech, it does not say there is freedom of malicious interpretation of other people's speech!"
Listening to Angela's nonsense, Jessica over there finally couldn't help raising her voice: "Angie!"
"What's the matter?" Although there was innocence in her tone, Angela was already laughing wildly in her stomach. Jesse is such a cute idiot. If you want to call and ask what's going on, just ask, why do you have to be roundabout
"Okay, okay, I actually want to ask you when you will come back to Los Angeles. I haven't seen you for a few months." Jessica said aggrievedly. Angela, who was still laughing in her heart because of her prank, immediately put away her shyness and pride, tapped her finger on the microphone a few times, and then said softly with apology: "Don't worry, Jessie. , Although I've been busy with my studies and the post-production of the film recently, it's been fine. It's just... We may not meet until next year, although I'll be back in Los Angeles for a preview in the middle of this month, but I'm going back to Boston soon .I have to figure out a way to make up for what I've lost this year, and this Christmas is in New York..."
Speaking of which, Angela couldn't help but close her eyes, and she couldn't stop the churning in her heart. And Jessica over there obviously expected this answer, and sighed before opening her mouth again: "It doesn't matter, you are always so busy anyway."
Although it was very calm, the faint disappointment in Jessica's tone could still be heard, and Angela couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "It's just this year, you know, because the filming cycle of "The Lord of the Rings" is very long, and I I have my own plans to go around again, so this year is a good time to be nervous. But now that I have completed my role, and I am adjusting the academic content, I believe this will not happen again this year. "
"But..." Jessica seemed to want to say something but closed her mouth again.
"But what?" Angela asked strangely.
"It's nothing," came Jessica's low sigh, "that's it, Angie, I'll wait for you to come back in Los Angeles. Not only me, but Lindsay and the others also miss you very much, especially Lindsay's frequent Complain about what you promised her to go to the premiere of "Good Girls Are Big Stars"."
"It's early for the show, why is she in a hurry." Thinking of Lindsay's bulging cheeks, Angela couldn't help but want to roll her eyes. If the other party was right in front of her, she might have reached out and pinched her cheeks.
In this way, the previous depressing atmosphere also disappeared.
"Okay, I won't waste your time." Jessica's laughter came over the phone, and after a pause she said briskly, "By the way, Angie, if you have time, why don't we go together? How about traveling? Going around the world and seeing different customs, you can’t always keep working or studying like this, can you?”
Hearing this, Angela couldn't help but froze for a while, and felt a pain in her heart for no reason.
"Okay, as long as we have time, we'll go on a trip together." She replied in a low voice, and when she heard the busy tone, she put the receiver on the landline with a slump, and shrunk again on the high-back chair, staring blankly. Fascinated ahead.
However, just a few minutes later, the phone on the desk suddenly rang again. Angela, who was startled, sat up immediately and stared at the phone angrily.
how? Next is Natalie's call? Angela picked up the microphone with inexplicable worry, excitement, and excitement, but after the call came an old man's voice.
"Rayleigh? It's so rare that you actually called me." Angela said in a mocking tone, but she felt a little lost in her heart. People are so strange.
"I hope I didn't disturb Miss Talent's movements, um, definitely not." The old man said humorously, "Even if there is, Miss Talent will definitely not bother with me, the old man, right?"
"Are you so sure?" Angela grinned, showing her white teeth, "So what if I refuse?"
She easily guessed the other party's intention, and she already knew the news of "The Matrix 2" from the previous call with Kate.
"You really want to refuse?" Ridley was a little surprised, and then it turned into a joke: "You really want to refuse, right?"
Angela was stunned for a moment before she reacted. No one ever said that it would be impossible without her from the beginning. The failure of the bid made the girl pouted, took a step back and threw out her conditions: "Unless there is an accident, the filming will be completed within a week, and it is best to complete it in January next year. If this can be done, I will Just agree to audition."
Speaking of which, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, failed to sell? Then blackmail it. However, the expected hesitation did not appear, and Ridley replied very readily: "No problem!"
Hearing this short but powerful sentence, Angela raised her eyebrows. Why did she feel that she had fallen into a trap instead
