It was a good weekend, mostly happy except for being slapped by the paparazzi waiting at the door when I got home late.
Angela and Jessica went for a drive in the suburbs, and the bodyguards all drove their cars far behind. Mavis, who always insisted on being close to her wherever she went, went to the FBI Los Angeles branch because of her work, so she didn't have a problem at all. people disturb them.
The two took turns driving along Route 49 all the way, and they were very happy with the windows open. Angela, who had rarely driven by herself since 1995, was also aroused. Afterwards, the two went to the uninhabited beach to ride the waves. Although the sea water is very cold this season, it is quite pleasant to roll up your pants and step on the beach with bare feet and let the waves wash. In the end, the two went all the way south to Palm Springs, shopping and drinking afternoon tea. This is basically a perfect two-person world.
Jessica, how do I repay your tenderness? After Angela returned home, this thought flashed through my mind. She knew what the question that she had blocked back was, she had to do it, she didn't want to think of Kate at this time.
All the time, Angela never thinks of the other two when she is alone with any individual, whether it is hypocritical avoidance or wholehearted time is irrelevant, and this situation has been broken last year. Although there is basically a little recovery after various events, it will never return to the beginning, not to mention Angela, who is surrounded by confusion, worry and guilt, is always indecisive and hesitant in this regard.
Up to now, although she has decided to make a break no matter what after graduation, she is still uncertain about what the future will be like. So Angela didn't want to mention Kate or Natalie in front of Jessica, just like she wouldn't mention Jessica and Natalie on Kate's phone call, and she wouldn't mention Kate and Jessica on Natalie's phone call .
Perhaps she didn't even realize that even after she chose to graduate, there was still an element of evasion in the showdown. And she still didn't understand that some things got worse the longer they dragged on.
"Have you been very happy today, Chrissy?" Mom asked suddenly during dinner.
"Well...it's not bad, it's just a little cold at the seaside." Angela shrugged and lowered her head to drink soup when she suddenly thought of something and then raised her head to look at her mother: "Mom, shouldn't you..."
"I just wanted to take a look in your room, and I heard it by accident." Although my mother said it casually, she not only lowered her eyelids, but the hand that was pulling the chicken on the plate trembled involuntarily.
What a lame excuse, what a chance it would take you to hit the message button on your phone. Angela curled her lips in her heart, just as she was about to say something, Willie and Ike had already called out "Oh" together.
Mother couldn't help coughing softly and looked at the two little guys: "Is there a problem, Willie? Ike?"
The younger brothers and sisters exchanged glances, opened their hands and made a face at their mother with a tacit understanding, and then immediately started to eat dinner in a proper manner. Mom looked at these two guys angrily and funny. She didn't know what to say for a while, but Angela said first: "When did you like to make faces at the dinner table."
Who knows, these two little guys also ignored her sister, raised their heads to look at Angela, snorted from their noses, and continued to deal with dinner.
Really, still angry about the move. Angela rolled her eyes in her heart and turned her attention to her mother. After thinking about it, his father's voice sounded: "By the way, Chrissy, I heard that you are directing a new film and plan to take a good rest for a few months after graduation, so how about going to Miami for vacation? The whole family will go. ,I am no exception."
The girl looked at her father unexpectedly. Since she entered the entertainment industry, the number of family trips has become less and less. Either her father has no time or she has no time. Angela hasn't been to Miami for several years. Whenever her younger siblings go on vacation, they always look at her with sad eyes when they leave. Although the whole family goes to New York and London every Christmas and New Year's, it's not really a family trip, is it
Angela wanted to agree, but she had already made other arrangements, so she shrugged with a wry smile: "Sorry, Dad, I really really want to agree, but... I already have other arrangements... "
"What is it?" Father asked unexpectedly.
"Well, I'm going to rent a small island near the Caribbean Sea or Hawaii, and then invite some friends to go there for ten days and a half months." Angela said it carefully and roughly, and then said to his father, "The whole family will go." The little guys who had been listening with their ears pricked up from the beginning gave an apologetic look. Then Willie and Ike didn't appreciate it at all, but both gave their sister a blank look. It seemed that Angela's words just now caused the reputation to drop directly to indifference.
"Is that so? That's such a pity." The father obviously knew her plan and didn't say much, but nodded to show that she was right, but there was more worry and helplessness in the mother's eyes.
"Don't worry, Dad, there will definitely be opportunities in the future." Angela could only say the same. Glancing at the two little guys, they still have a stinky face, and it seems that they cannot be changed in a short time, so as long as the reputation continues to be cold.
"Why didn't you tell my mother that she came to the room and listened to my phone call, Annie?" After returning to the bedroom after dinner, Angela immediately asked her guilt after Annie came in with her clothes in her arms.
"Can you tell me when I came in and what I did?" Annie asked rhetorically.
"Well... well, my fault." Angela scratched her head helplessly, sat down in front of the piano, lifted the lid and pressed the keys. The ding ding dong dong sound of the piano sounded immediately. Even though Angela was playing whatever she wanted, the simple notes were still strung together flexibly, flowing back and forth in the room, making people couldn't help but admire a few words.
As the last syllable fell, Angela let out a long breath and looked forward in a trance. Annie, who came out of the cloakroom, pinched her fingers and didn't know what to say. How could she not hear the worry and anxiety in the notes.
"Angie..." Annie couldn't help crying.
"What?" Angela turned her head immediately, the smile on her face still the same. Annie pursed her lips hesitantly. After a long silence, she finally shook her head: "It's nothing."
"Half talking is not a good habit, Annie." Although Angela said so, she gave the other party a clear smile. How could the girl not guess what Annie was thinking, and at the same time understand why she was embarrassed, after all, her identity was still awkward in this kind of thing.
"Okay, I'm going out." Annie also understood what Angela meant, smiled and nodded and was about to leave.
"Wait, Annie." Angela suddenly remembered something and stopped her, "How is the new villa?"
"It's not bad. It's okay if you want to live in now. I can collect the things for you right away."
"Don't make fun of me!" The girl glared at her, then made a gesture: "So, how are you thinking?"
"What?" Annie was stunned for a while, but then she reacted: "I thought I'd made it clear enough, Angie."
"Hey, you are my housekeeper, why don't you leave the villa alone!"
"That's because someone's going to be in Boston for a few more months, or she's not going to ask me to manage the room for her."
"No no no, I mean there needs to be someone to manage here too, don't you?"
"It just needs proper maintenance before you can move in, and I'm sure there are a lot of companies out there rushing to do the job."
Having said this, Annie paused for a long time before looking directly into Angela's eyes and said seriously: "You know, Angie, the first thing I learned in England was..."
"Okay, I see." Angela raised her hands for the first time, sighed with a smile and hugged Annie.
Annie didn't continue talking, and hugged Angela as well, but within two minutes her face became weird, and she gnashed her teeth and shouted, "Angie! What are you doing!"
"Don't make such a fuss, just squeeze it to see how it feels." Angela said with a smile, seeing Annie staring at her with unhappy eyes, she immediately reached out and grabbed the soft pair on her chest and squeezed.
"What are you trying to do!" Annie, who was pushed against the wall, blushed, "You are sexual harassment!"
"Anyway, I pinched the bottom, and of course the top can't be let go." Angela sneered a few times on purpose, completely ignoring the word "sexual harassment", and then brought the word in front of Annie and blew in her ear, provocatively. "I've been wondering, what will my dear Annie taste like?"
Facing Angela, who was staring at her with aggressive eyes, Annie, who was blushing, suddenly relaxed, looked at Angela and asked calmly, "Are you sure you want me?"
As soon as she saw her like this, Angela knew that she had played too much, and quickly left Annie's body and opened her hands: "Okay, no more jokes, um... If you... I apologize."
After Annie snorted dissatisfied but not annoyed, she gave Angela a roll of eyes, turned around and walked to the door without saying anything. As soon as he walked in front of him, there was a knock on the door, and when he opened it, he saw that Alizee was standing outside.
"This is tomorrow's itinerary." Lily walked straight to Angela and threw the folder in her hand on the table with a pop, which startled her a little. But what made the girl strange was that although Alizee remained expressionless, there was an abnormally hidden trace of anger in her tone.
"Well, that..." Angela picked up the schedule and wanted to say something, but Alizee didn't give her a chance at all. She turned around and pulled Annie out of her bedroom, only to hear Lily's two words when the door was closed. question.
"What are you doing in there?"
"Don't you think this is too indulgent to her?"
Angela scratched her head inexplicably. Did she realize that she had overlooked something? But if you think about it carefully, you can't find anything, and the girl finally shrugged and picked up the schedule and turned it over.
It’s almost the same as last week, except that the shots of “Crash” will be indoors or in the studio from tomorrow, so you don’t have to worry about secret shooting by reporters and ask questions whenever you get a chance, such as “This year’s Oscars, you have won four nominations again. , compared to a Grammy that didn't have a nomination" or something like that.
And not every singer gets a Grammy nomination every year, it's a matter of luck or not. Angela, who was recalling her memories, mumbled dissatisfiedly. Last year, she released a single, which was written to match the promotion of the iPod, and it was paid to download on the Internet. It is currently the theme song for the iPod that was promoted by Jobs.
Although the song is catchy and easy to learn, it is mediocre and uncharacteristic. If such a song is nominated for best single, then the Grammys are simply smashing their own brand.
Returning her attention to the schedule in her hand, Angela made a slight estimate in her heart. If this momentum continues, it will be completely closed by the end of the month. But this is just the beginning. The most exciting part of "Crash" is the editing, which is really what she wants to learn.
If there is no problem, I can go back to Harvard to do my studies and edit. The credits earned in school plus the AP exam transfer before, should be almost enough. As long as the graduation thesis is qualified and then the defense is passed, it should not be a problem to graduate successfully. only…
Angela scratched her head in anguish, and shifted her gaze to the phone, staring at her, not knowing what she was thinking. After hesitating for a few minutes, she took a long breath and walked over and pressed the play button directly.
"Um... Hi Angie, it's me, can you come over and give me some advice on my evening dress if you have time. I don't want to bump into someone else's shirt when I show up at the Kodak Theater... You've always had a good eye... Call me back ."
This is Kate's message. The opinion is actually a pretense, and neither Angela nor Kate know what is behind it. In this regard, the girl is just dazed and uncomfortable. When will Kate ask herself out another excuse? Moreover, after the Oscar nomination list was released, I called to congratulate him for the first time, and just hung up the phone after saying a few words.
Although Kate tried her best to suppress her emotions, Angela could still hear the excitement in her tone. It's a really bad feeling that you care about the other person but still want to be distant. It will be resolved, and it will definitely be resolved in a few months, Angela kept saying to herself in her heart.
"It's me, Angie, I asked Professor Gao Wen as you asked, and the answer I got is that you must go back to school at the beginning of next month at the latest, and you must listen to an important course unless you don't want to graduate. That's it, in addition, I suggest you better have your phone on when you go out... hurry up... come back."
This is Natalie's message. Except for the last sentence, the whole message has her characteristics as always, rational and calm. Although the last sentence made Angela a little moved and happy, it was more depressed.
She was always like this, even when she used to read poetry, skate, and go shopping together, she always wore a reserved smile. It seemed that all the passion was left on the bed, when they had sex. So Angela can seldom guess Natalie's mind, so Natalie is the least sure, so she is slightly biased towards Natalie among the three.
Well, let's not talk about this, no matter what, it will be solved after graduation, and... it will definitely be solved! Angela took a deep breath and waited for the last message, which was the most important thing at the moment.
"Hey, how are you, Miss Angel? It's not easy to get your bedroom phone, to be honest. Well, I'll make a long story short, remember your promise? I'm about to start officially turning it on in early March— It was supposed to start last year, but something delayed it—hope your schedule is okay. Give me a call ASAP, I'm sure you'll love your Jedi Masters look."
This is the phone call from the old man George Lucas. To be honest, if he hadn't called suddenly, Angela would have almost forgotten that he had promised him to be there.
A female Jedi master in the second Star Wars prequel. If the call came from any other time, Angela would definitely agree without hesitation. This is a national-level movie "Star Wars" series, not to mention that Natalie will continue to play Queen Amidala.
But now, under the current circumstances, Angela couldn't agree. Quite simply, she had to think about her diploma. Although she said before that the credits earned so far plus AP scores are basically enough, but she said it doesn't count, doesn't she? So hurry up and take a few more points. Besides, there are graduation thesis and thesis defense, but you want to get a diploma? just forget it.
Of course, as Angela, who is already successful in the eyes of many people, the Harvard diploma is just the icing on the cake. Besides, the literature major does not help her much in her career, and many outstanding people have not finished college
But the problem is, you have come this far, you are about to graduate, but you dropped out because you want to star in "Star Wars"? What will the public and public opinion think before this war is about to end? As for postponing graduation... Not to mention that this is not in Angela's plan, even if she doesn't think about the plan, she really doesn't want to squeeze any more time for her studies and adjust her schedule.
Old George, you're really going to have a problem with me, if we started shooting last year... well, I'm afraid there won't be time even if we start shooting last year. Angela walked back and forth in the room with a wry smile. Strange, vaguely remember the Star Wars prequels
The second "Attack of the Clones" should be released this year... Forget it, don't think too much about it.
The girl shook her head, and after taking a long breath, she finally had a general idea in her mind. Of course, the specific situation had to be discussed with Sparrow. If George Lucas doesn't agree with this plan, then she can only give up.
Angela took a few steps to the phone, picked up the cordless phone, and was about to dial, but then hesitated again, who should I call first
