The girl hurriedly returned to the restaurant to grab a piece of bread, ready to watch a good show while having breakfast. After thinking about it, I chose a safer location—the entrance of the restaurant.
In less than a minute, under the anticipation of Drew stretching his neck, there were indeed several quick quarrels upstairs.
"Eric Williams, I will never forgive you again, you bastard, big bastard!"
Amid this sound, Aniston rushed down the second floor on the stairs, glared fiercely at Drew, who was watching the excitement, and pulled up the suitcase and was about to leave.
"Jenny, wait for me, don't be impulsive."
Eric's voice sounded, and then a figure wearing only a pair of trousers appeared at the corner of the V-shaped stairs. Seeing that Aniston was pulling up the suitcase and was about to leave again, Eric didn't pay attention to his feet in a hurry. He stepped on the ground and rolled down the stairs with a few plops.
"Wow," Drew mouthed. Seeing Eric rolling down the stairs, he wasn't too worried, but rather gloated, because the height of this section of stairs was less than two meters.
And Aniston saw this scene, and cursed in relief.
It's a pity that things seemed a little unexpected. Eric rolled all the way down the stairs and collapsed on his back on the ground. Immediately afterwards, blood began to gushes from his forehead, and he remained motionless.
The atmosphere stagnated for a moment, and with a bang, the porcelain bowl containing oatmeal fell to the ground and shattered, and the girl rushed up with a look of horror.
"Eric, are you okay, hey, talk, you... don't scare me!" Drew threw himself to Eric's side, calling Eric's name, while wiping the blood on his forehead, but I found that the blood was rubbing more and more, and directly dyed the cuffs of the girl's pajamas red. After careful inspection, I found a wound of about one centimeter on the forehead, and the blood was gurgling from the wound, and Eric's whole body People have also fainted.
Aniston was about to leave angrily, but after seeing this scene, she hesitated for a moment or put down the suitcase and walked up. Walking around Drew's body and seeing the blood constantly overflowing from Eric's forehead, he also panicked.
"How...how could this be?"
The girl held Eric's head in her arms at a loss, and pressed the wound on Eric's forehead strangely. There was a large amount of blood on the pajamas in front of her, her eyes were red like a bunny, and she raised her head. Shouted at Aniston: "Bichi, call an ambulance. If anything happens to Eric, I'll kill you, I swear!"
Aniston was frightened by Drew's hysterical threat, rushed to the phone, and dialed 911 frantically. At this time, Virginia, who had dressed hastily, also went downstairs and saw this scene, and rushed over.
"Drew, let me come, I will."
"Go away, get out of here, you bitch, it's all your fault, otherwise Eric wouldn't be hurt, you bitch, bitch..."
Although being insulted by Drew like this, Virginia felt very uncomfortable, but she is a mature woman after all, knowing that now is not the time to care about this: "Drew, it is not easy to stop the bleeding like this, there is a first aid kit Can you tell me where the first aid kit is?"
"Eric's bedroom, on the closet," Drew said without hesitation, and Virginia quickly got up and ran upstairs.
"It seems... that he should be laid flat on the ground..." Aniston, who finished the phone call, came over again, saw Drew kneeling on the floor and holding Eric in his arms, and couldn't help following what he knew Some plausible medical common sense suggested.
Drew glanced at Aniston coldly, carefully pressed the wound on Eric's forehead, laid Eric flat on the floor, thought for a while, and then took off one of his cartoon slippers and put it on Eric's forehead. back of the head.
Aniston looked at Drew's appearance, and unconsciously felt a little bit sour in her heart. She is Eric's real girlfriend, why does it look like she is the third party in this scene now. Seeing Drew's appearance as a frantic female leopard, Aniston was instinctively terrified, as if she would be swallowed alive by a wild beast if she got closer.
Virginia quickly returned with the first aid kit: "Drew, let me do it, I have learned some first aid."
Drew backed away silently, watched Virginia skillfully bandage the wound for Eric to stop the bleeding, and then he was a little relieved, and glanced at Aniston who was standing next to him: "Don't you say you want to go, Now you can get out, and don't come to Eric in the future."
"I..." Aniston finally got angry: "I am Eric's girlfriend, why do you order me! You are just a pet of him!"
There was a sneer at the corner of Drew's mouth: "What about pets, at least they won't be like you, a stubborn and stupid woman who knows how to play some self-righteous temper in front of him all day long."
"You're the idiot," Aniston retorted frantically, pointing to Virginia again: "I'm his girlfriend, shouldn't he... shouldn't I be angry when he's like this?"
"He is such an excellent man, what's wrong with playing with a few women?"
"You..." Aniston was silenced by Drew's powerful logic.
Virginia carefully bandaged the wound on Eric's forehead, touched Eric's chest and felt the other's heartbeat, and then she was a little relieved. Hearing the quarrel between the two girls who were having erroneous views and logic, they were about to stop in distress when the doorbell rang.
"The ambulance is here," Aniston whispered, and Drew immediately forgot about the argument and rushed to open the door.
Virginia didn't get up and hide upstairs until the ambulance drove to the door of the villa. She didn't want outsiders to find herself here. After all, she and Eric didn't have a well-known relationship. Seeing Virginia's actions, Aniston subconsciously wanted to hide upstairs, but she caught a glimpse of Drew waving his little hands and eagerly explaining something to the medical staff who came over, so he stopped again.
The medical staff did a simple treatment for Eric again, and then carried Eric, who was still unconscious, into the ambulance. Aniston couldn't help but get up when he saw Drew follow him into the car. The ambulance drove from Eric's mansion, roaring all the way to the nearest hospital.
A paparazzi guarding the door of Eric's house was overjoyed to see this scene, and keenly felt that something must have happened, so they started the car and followed.
In less than an hour, the news that Eric was injured and comatose and admitted to the hospital spread throughout the news media in Los Angeles.
"News from this station, the young director Eric Williams accidentally fell down the stairs this morning and is still unconscious. This is a live report from our reporter at Cormier Surgical Hospital in Beverly Hills," TV The screen switched to the exterior scene. In front of a hospital, there were forty or fifty reporters from various media, and the bustling traffic almost completely blocked the entrance of the hospital. He stepped out of the commercial vehicle with a serious face, and was quickly surrounded by a large group of reporters for interviews.
A young blonde female reporter stood in front of the camera and said with a microphone: "Eric has been in a coma for three hours now. According to the information revealed so far, Eric Williams' back, arm Elbows and knees were contused to varying degrees, but the most serious was a severe blow to the head, which caused a lot of blood loss. It is not yet certain whether this injury will lead to more serious consequences. As we all know, brain trauma is The most unpredictable kind of injury."
Inside the hospital, Jeffrey and Kapoor were the first to arrive, followed by Al Pacino, Tom Hanks and other actors who had a close relationship with Eric. The two directors of "Woman" also rushed over one after another. After a series of examinations, Eric was sent to the ward. Everyone gathered in the office to listen to the condition analysis of Eric's attending physician.
"The results of the CT and MRI examinations showed that Mr. Williams did not have symptoms of skull fracture and internal bleeding in his head, so there is no need to worry too much at present."
"Doctor Duncan, when will he wake up?" Drew, who was standing at the front of the crowd, asked eagerly.
Dr. Duncan hesitated for a moment, and said, "You should wake up within eight hours."
"Why should it be, Doctor, can't you be sure?"
Dr. Duncan nodded truthfully.
"How could this be? You are a doctor. How can you be unsure? Aren't you the best doctor here?" Drew almost rushed over excitedly, but was stopped by Jeffrey: "Drew, don't salute."
Dr. Duncan looked at Drew's embarrassed appearance with one foot bare and his pajamas stained with blood on his chest. He didn't mind the girl's rudeness, but patiently explained: "Miss Barrymore, Mr. Williams' level Injury, according to past experience, it is time to wake up now, but he did not wake up according to common sense, so I can't give you an accurate answer, and you need to observe and wait patiently."
Drew waved his hand irritably: "No, I have to transfer to the best hospital in Los Angeles, I..."
Jeffrey pressed Drew's shoulder and said softly, "Drew, stop making trouble, this is already the best brain hospital in Los Angeles."
Dr. Duncan said again: "Perhaps, at this time, you can try to speak in the patient's ear, and it may have a wake-up effect."
After Drew heard this suggestion, he immediately turned around and ran to Eric's ward. After the girl's figure disappeared, Jeffrey asked, "Doctor, does this method really work?"
Dr. Duncan smiled bitterly: "I just want to find something for Barrymore to do. Her mood is too unstable and she may collapse."
The scene was silent for a while, and no one said anything. A group of people left the office and came to the door of Eric's ward. They saw Drew lying next to Eric's ear and muttering nervously, but they didn't move over and could only stand outside the corridor.
Seeing stars like Al Pacino and Tom Hanks appearing here, several passers-by were eager to step forward, but they shrank back tactfully when they saw the stern expressions on everyone's faces.
The oldest Jeffrey finally said: "Why don't you go back first, it's useless to stay here, and Kapoor and I just stay here."
After everyone heard this, they all left one after another. In the end, only Jeffrey, Kapoor, and the stubborn Aniston were left. She also wanted to come to Eric's bed, but she saw Drew looking crazy. , and a little scared.
Eight hours later, Eric still hadn't woken up, and even in the evening, Eric didn't show signs of waking up. Drew went crazy again, and transferred his worried anger to Aniston like a madman. On her body, two bloodstains were scratched on the girl's neck before being pulled away by Jeffrey and Kapoor. Aniston also began to regret a little, and even forgot to resist when Drew rushed over.
At night, many people finally couldn’t sit still. Fox’s Barry Diller and Columbia’s Amy Pascal appeared at the hospital one after another in the night, and a large group of reporters who were still blocking the entrance of the hospital excitedly wanted to surround them again. The two interviewed, but were pushed away by the powerful bodyguards.
The two first visited Eric in the ward, and then asked the helpless attending physician about Eric's condition as usual.
"Doctor, there is no possibility of being in a vegetative state, right?" After listening to Duncan's explanation, Barry Diller asked the question that everyone wanted to ask but was afraid to ask.
Duncan held the pen in his hand and rubbed it twice, hesitantly said: "The probability of this is very small, but... it is not impossible."
Fortunately, Drew is still guarding Eric's bedside. If he hears this sentence, he will go crazy again.
Jeffrey and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The worries on the faces of Barry Diller and Amy Pascal were even heavier. They were not sad for Eric, but worried about Fox and Columbia. Both of them now have Eric's movies. Contract, if Eric's next movie project falls through...
Barry Diller and Amy Pascal had to leave after an hour of fruitless discussions.
Perhaps everyone will be falsely alarmed by Eric's incident. At four o'clock in the morning the next morning, Eric, who had been in a coma for nearly nineteen hours, finally woke up. After the doctor's examination, Drew, with red eyes and disheveled hair, held Eric's big hand after waking up, rubbed his face affectionately for a while, and then fell down on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
Jeffrey and Kapoor, who hadn't slept all night, sat beside Eric's hospital bed in relief. Seeing Drew's reaction, Kapoor stood up and said, "Eric, shall I take Drew to sleep in the next room? "
"No, just here," Eric said, pulling the girl up and lying down next to him. Then he said to Aniston who was standing at the door with his hands behind his back, "Jenny, come here."
Aniston leaned over obediently: "Eric, since... Now that you're awake, I'll go first."
Eric reached out and grabbed Aniston: "Don't go, Jane."
Kapoor and Jeffrey stood up and walked out winkingly: "Let's call to inform other people that you are awake. They must be worried now. They will be relieved to hear the news earlier."
After the door of the ward was closed, Aniston relaxed a little and sat down beside Eric's bed.
Eric touched the two red marks on Aniston's neck strangely: "This is..."
Aniston glanced at Drew lying next to Eric with complicated eyes: "You bastard... If you can't wake up, Drew will kill me."
"Oh, she won't." Eric moved his big hand up and touched Aniston's face.
"No, she definitely will," Aniston pulled Eric's hand down: "I think... we'd better break up, maybe... maybe Drew is more suitable for you."
"I just treat Drew like... like a sister."
Aniston didn't dwell on this issue anymore, but said: "But I... I really can't stand your flirtatiousness, Eric, when I was in New York, I saw your news, and I can pretend to comfort myself. It's all fabricated by gossip tabloids, but what I saw yesterday morning, I can no longer lie to myself, it's all true, I really can't bear it, so, you... can you let me go?"
Eric held Aniston's little hand tightly: "Forget it, Jane, let's not talk about this issue, I plan to make a TV series recently, do you want to play the heroine? I guarantee that this TV series will let You're hotter than those movie stars."
Aniston tugged her little hand hard, but couldn't pull it back: "I don't..."
"I really can't think of anyone more suitable than you, Jenny, you don't want me to have another audition, right? Many girls will appear by my side. You know, my will is always weak."
"you… "
"Okay, then it's settled."
"I… "
Aniston is stubborn, but Eric is more forceful. Just in response to the sentence, under Eric's savage offensive, Aniston agreed in a daze, and when he reacted, The little girl found herself lying on Eric's other side. Like Drew, she didn't sleep all night, so she quickly fell asleep beside Eric.
Although Eric has woken up, it may be that Eric woke up too late, and the newspapers have already been printed.
Anyway, the next day, the news that Eric had been in a coma for a long time appeared in the newspaper.
"Eric Williams was accidentally injured, and the filming plan of "Dark War" will be rejected. Colombia may lose its bargaining chip in heavyweight negotiations."
"According to inside information, Williams has been in a coma for a long time, and there may be a risk of a vegetative state. Once this happens, several film contracts signed with Columbia and Twentieth Century Fox will be terminated. Firefly, which is developing well The future will also be uncertain.”
The above two types of news appeared in a large number of newspapers, but after the news of Eric Waking up was clarified by Fox TV in time, these sensational reports became empty papers. , but quickly stabilized as the news clarified.
At the same time, some people have focused their attention on other aspects, and this new focus has also attracted the attention of a large number of readers, such as a piece of news in the "Los Angeles Metropolis Daily": "As we all know, Eric Williams There are currently no relatives. Although child star Drew Barrymore has a close relationship with Williams, the two are neither related by blood nor legally. It is said that Eric Williams has not established any relationship before. Will, once Eric Williams has an accident, his huge property worth hundreds of millions of dollars will not be inherited, or will face the possibility of being taken over by the federal government."
In the ward, although Eric felt that he had fully recovered, he had to stay in the hospital for a few more days under the doctor's advice and everyone's insistence.
Looking at the news in the "Los Angeles Metropolis Daily", Eric smiled and said to Drew next to him: "Maybe I really should make a will, girl, how much do you want?"
"Of course it's all mine." Drew flipped through a magazine boredly, and glanced up at Eric: "Have you forgotten what relationship we have in "Return to Seventeen"?"
"Ah... I thought you would say that I don't want a penny, as long as you are good, it makes me sad that you want all my property. "
"snort!"
While Eric was bored in the ward thinking about whether to make a will, the British paparazzi who were thousands of miles away discovered another thing. Eric's public father was indeed dead, but The identity of his mother is a mystery. This discovery made many paparazzi ecstatic. If the whereabouts of Eric Williams' mother can be found, it will definitely be an explosive news.
As the birthplace of paparazzi, the British paparazzi are really good at digging. They quickly found Eric's residence in London when he was a teenager, and then visited the neighbors near Eric's house one by one, and they found out. Some clues.
"That is a very temperamental woman..."
"Always covered with a veil even when going out, I have never seen her real face..."
"Probably a rich lady, but she disappeared after giving birth, Ralph is really lucky..."
After a waste of effort, the British tabloids only found these fragments of news, that is to say, no one remembers what Eric Williams' mother looked like, which in turn gave those tabloids more room to play , agree that this may be a fairy tale about a princess falling in love with a groom, although the ending is not good, but she is single and has an excellent son.
These fabricated news quickly spread to the United States, and Eric saw it without accident, but he was relieved instead. It's best not to find it like this. If there really is a 'mother' whom he has never met before, he really doesn't know how to deal with it. It's best to keep this mystery forever.
After April Fool's Day, Eric left the hospital smoothly after another detailed examination, and the turmoil was completely over. The preparations for "Dark War" are all in place. In the remaining few days, Eric has already started working with Cruise and Hanks, waiting for the movie to officially start on April 5th.
