Chasing out of the restaurant, Elizabeth found that Eric had disappeared, so she could only go back to the hotel where she was staying in disappointment.
"Julia, what are you doing?"
Back in the hotel room, Elizabeth saw a suitcase lying in the middle of the bedroom, and Julia was packing her clothes.
Julia folded a small T-shirt and stuffed it into the box, looked up and explained: "I... I'm leaving, I think I should go back to Los Angeles."
Elizabeth stomped her feet resentfully, and stretched out her hand to pull up the girl who was in a hurry and put her on the chair: "What do you look like now, a little beast that has encountered a natural enemy and is eager to escape?"
Julia was stunned, and she dodged her eyes in a panic for a few times before pulling herself together and complaining to Elizabeth: "It's not all your fault, you didn't remind me when you saw him behind me, I said With those words, that guy will definitely want to deal with me."
Elizabeth couldn't help laughing out loud: "Haha, how can I deal with you, spanking? Stop making trouble, Julia, those are all your imaginations, okay?"
Julia still couldn't help shrinking her neck: "You...you don't understand, Liz, that guy is very bad."
Elizabeth really didn't understand Julia's behavior, she couldn't help covering her forehead, and after thinking for a while, she pulled up the girl: "Come on, come with me."
"Where are you going?" Julia followed Elizabeth's strength and stood up.
"Let's go to Eric Williams. Since you're worried, I'll explain it to you face to face so that he won't harass you again."
When the girl heard Elizabeth's words, she immediately slipped into the chair and couldn't get up. A pair of small hands still gripped the armrest tightly. He explained in his mouth: "He...he never harassed me."
"Then tell me. What's the matter with you?"
"I... I don't know too well, anyway, I'm just a little afraid of him, and because of that drunkenness and today's incident, I don't dare to see him even more, Liz, just leave it alone, okay?" Julie Yazhi said hesitantly, although she and Elizabeth are already considered best friends. Julia also didn't tell the biggest secret in her heart. At present, only she and Eric know that secret. Moreover, she still doesn't quite understand whether her emotions are caused by Stockholm Syndrome. She secretly read some related books, but the symptoms seemed... different.
Is it mutated
Elizabeth walked around in the open space of the bedroom a few times in distress, and suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Julia, do you think things are like this?"
The girl raised her head curiously, and Elizabeth analyzed: "Perhaps. It's just because you haven't had much contact with him, and in the short few contacts, he seemed to be relatively strong, so that's why you have such an impression in your heart? "
"Or... maybe," Julia nodded, thinking about it carefully, and things were more or less like this. Even when she was filming "Pretty Woman", she didn't get along with Eric alone a few times, and even from the beginning of her acquaintance to the present, she only had sex with him once, although the impression was... deep, but only Just once.
And then, other impressions...
The night of the first meeting, he looked down at her and said that he could send her to be a top actress in Hollywood...
When filming "Feng Yue", she took the initiative to give him a hint, and he said: Forget it, I have to go back quickly...
She tempted him with Al's invitation, and he said lightly: Go, don't delay tomorrow's shooting...
In the trailer, he raised his palm, and she felt a sense of expectation in her heart, and then he opened the car door with a bang...
After the success of "Feng Yue", she went to him aggressively, and he reprimanded her: I can't wait, what are you going to do...
The company assigned her a driver and a bodyguard. She thought it was a novelty, and when she ran around him to show off, he taunted her with his eyes...
It seems that at the beginning of everything, she has been standing in the dust and looking up, while he has been as unattainable as a high god, and at the same time, he has blocked the sunlight and covered her in the shadow he covered.
Seeing the girl lost in thought, Elizabeth couldn't help snapping her fingers in Julia's ear.
"Ah?" The girl looked at Elizabeth suspiciously as if she had been awakened suddenly.
"Julia, don't you want to change the status quo?"
"How... how to change?"
Elizabeth said: "It's very simple, get along with him more, I don't think Eric Williams is as scary as you think, it just so happens that he is in Venice, and he is not busy with movies now, you can talk to him After getting along with him more and getting to know him better, maybe you won't be afraid of him anymore."
With some expectation in her heart, Julia finally raised her head: "Is this really possible?"
"How will you know if you don't try it?" Elizabeth saw that Julia was a little loose, and quickly took the opportunity to pull the girl up: "Let's go, let's go find him now."
"Wait, I... I think I'd better change clothes," Julia said reluctantly.
Elizabeth looked at Julia's large pink sleeveless t-shirt and jeans, shook her head and said, "That's all, besides, it's already past nine o'clock in the evening, and I have to take off the beautiful one later, so why bother?" What?" After speaking, Elizabeth dragged Julia out of the room.
Eric just took a shower, changed into simple clothes, turned on the TV and rummaged a few times. Although the hotel has cable TV signals from several major TV stations in North America, there are no good programs, and he can't watch local TV stations either. I understood, so I turned it off casually, picked up the "Walden" that Drew bought for myself before boarding the plane, and casually flipped through it.
As a middle-aged man whose mental age is over forty years old and is troubled by the world, it is difficult for Eric to read this collection of essays, so he flipped through them on the plane, and finally I was hypnotized and fell asleep unknowingly, and now I look at it, and I don't think it's interesting, and I feel sleepy just looking at it.
Just about to go to bed, the phone in the room rang. After answering it, I heard the call from the front desk of the hotel, saying that someone was looking for me.
"Come in, it's so late, what are you doing here?" Eric let the two girls into the room and asked casually.
Regardless of Julia, who was somewhat restrained behind her, Elizabeth walked around the spacious living room of the suite a few times, picked up Eric's book on the coffee table, looked at it, raised her head and said, "Ah, I didn't expect that. Do you like this book too?"
Eric poured two glasses of juice for the two girls and handed them over. Hearing Elizabeth's question, he replied casually: "I don't like it." (To be continued...)
