Until Eric, Famke, and Nicole finished washing and went downstairs together, the other three women were still fast asleep.
Nicole's figure is comparable to Eric's. At this time, they are wearing Eric's white shirt and jeans. Coupled with Eric's same attire, the three people's clothing does not look like a couple's outfit, but it is better than a couple's outfit. .
The Russian twins sitting on the sofa by the curtain wall saw the three of Eric appear, and quickly stood up and said to Eric in unison: "Boss."
Over the past few months, Eric has gotten used to the beautiful and indifferent expressions of the twins, and he has gradually realized that this is just a state of self-protection for the two girls in an unfamiliar environment, which may not be the case in nature. Glancing at the Sony Alkman and the thick Russian-English dictionary on the coffee table in front of the twins, Eric realized that the two girls were learning English, so he waved his hands and said, "Go ahead, by the way, have you had lunch yet?"
The twins were wearing the same light blue sweater and khaki trousers. I don't know if the older sister or the younger sister replied: "I have eaten, boss, do you need us to help cook?"
Eric shook his head, signaled the two girls to continue to do their own things, and walked towards the kitchen with Nicole and Famke. He still doesn't understand how to distinguish twin sisters. He once suggested that the two girls wear different colors of clothes. But Xiao Nizi insisted on making the twins dress exactly the same, claiming that it would be interesting.
Nicole followed Eric, and when the twins couldn't hear them, she turned her head and took a look. She tugged at Eric's sleeve and asked, "Are they really boxers?"
Eric nodded: "Yes."
Famke also said at this time: "I can't see it at all, but the figure is quite suitable for being a model."
Eric smiled and said to Famke: "Don't you like boxing occasionally, you can try it with them."
Famke felt that Eric's smile was a bit wicked. With a little caution. Asked: "Have you tried it?"
Eric raised his finger and pointed to the corner of his right eye: "It hurts here for many days."
The two women imagined Eric's deflated appearance. They all giggled, and Famke also said: "Oh, I remembered, I came back to see you in August, and your eyes were still a little black. I thought you were not in a good state of mind at the time. The dark circles under my eyes after insomnia turned out to be from being beaten."
Nicole also asked, "Hey. Did you eat them?"
Eric shook his head with a look of 'regret', and said with a smile: "I can't beat it, my body can only be pushed back by them."
Nicole raised her small fist and hammered on Eric's shoulder, with a coquettish tone: "You know how to bully us."
"No wonder you didn't bring them into the bedroom together last night," Famke Jansen also echoed. The three of them walked through the hall to the kitchen on the west side of the first floor of the villa, pushed the door in, and Famke suddenly thought As if getting up, he smiled and said, "By the way, there seems to be one person missing. Well, where is Petunia's sister. Why did you forget her last night?"
As soon as the words were finished, the three of them saw Monica Cruz standing by the refrigerator in the kitchen, holding a bottle of ketchup in her hands, who was a little at a loss. It has been almost half a year since Monica came to the United States, and her daily English communication is no longer a problem. The girl just heard Famke Jansen's last words, and seeing the three of them dressed in exactly the same way, she could easily imagine what happened. She was sleeping in the same room with her sister last night, and Eric broke in suddenly. The girl was surprised and looked forward to it, but in the end Eric just lifted Penelope out of the room and left her alone in the room. There, Monica thought that Eric didn't like her at all, so she was sad and anxious for a whole night, and barely fell asleep until dawn, so she only woke up a little earlier than Eric and the other three, Just as they were about to get some food in the kitchen, the three of Eric walked in.
Seeing that the scene was a little awkward, Eric stepped forward, took the ketchup in Monica's hand and put it aside, seeing that the girl's hair was still a little messy, he asked softly, "Just woke up?"
Monica felt that her hands were empty, and suddenly felt that her two little hands didn't know where to put them, so she just nodded subconsciously: "Well, I... well."
"Go take a shower first." Eric held the girl's face, kissed it lightly, and said softly, "I'll make lunch for everyone myself, and I can help you after you take a shower."
Monica nodded obediently, then glanced at the two women standing not far away, and asked weakly: "Eric, are you..."
"Of course not," Eric interrupted without waiting for the girl to finish, "but this is California, you don't want me to get into trouble, do you?"
Although Monica was a little confused by Eric's words, she shook her head subconsciously.
Eric patted the girl on the back: "Then go take a shower."
Seeing Monica, who was petite and timid, was coaxed by Eric to leave the kitchen lightly, Nicole said in a sour tone: "You have never been so gentle to me."
Famke Jansen nodded, "Not for me either."
Eric took out the ingredients from the refrigerator and handed them to the two women who came over, saying, "It's impossible, isn't it?"
Nicole took a bag of bread, glared at Eric, walked to the kitchen counter, and said casually, "Well, it seems to be once."
Eric remembered the time when Nicole cried aggrievedly, and said with a guilty conscience: "There's no need to be jealous of a little girl."
Famke put a box of eggs into the egg cooker one by one. Hearing Eric say this, he teased: "I thought you had a sex change. It turned out that you were just afraid of 'trouble', tsk tsk."
"I've always been a law-abiding citizen."
Eric said with a cheeky smile, and couldn't help but complain in his heart. The legal standards of various states in the United States are uneven. In most states, you can get married at the age of sixteen, and in some states, the legal age of marriage is as low as twelve years old. In some states, the age of rightful conduct is only eighteen. A man and a woman wanting to do certain things without violating federal law is only a matter of space, not time. For a country on wheels, the space problem seems to be the same. Not a problem.
Eric still remembers the young and rebellious Milla Jovovich in the original time and space who eloped with her boyfriend and got married in Las Vegas at the age of sixteen. In California, the boyfriend who was four years older than her did this to squat Prison. But to neighboring Nevada. The two can legally marry. It's pretty ironic, I have to say. Speaking of which, the filming of "Resident Evil" in this time and space may start next year, but Eric has not seen Milla Jovovich in the media. It seems that this Russian born is very good The actress was slapped badly by the butterfly's wings.
A few minutes later, before Monica came back from the shower, Drew, Penelope and Connery walked into the kitchen one after another. Xiao Nizi covered her mouth and still yawned, and threw a mobile phone over: "Hey, Jeffrey Katzenberg called just now. I told him to go back later."
Eric took the mobile phone, watched the girl stretch out her small paws to pick up the sausage that was just fried, and opened it with a raised hand: "Have you brushed your teeth yet?"
"I'm starving to death," the girl yelled unwillingly, but walked out obediently.
Eric glanced at Connery and Penelope, saw the two women nodded, and pointed to the pan: "Look at it, and serve it when it's ready."
Giving the work in hand to the two women, Eric walked out with his mobile phone.
Although it was noon, after Eric called. Katzenberg still answered the phone quickly. The workaholic stayed in the office even at noon. Can't help but make Eric, who slept until the sun was up, feel a little ashamed.
Firefly's management has drawn up a detailed media public relations plan after a morning's discussion based on what was discussed last night. Katzenberg even found out that Buffett and his wife Susan are currently living in a vacation home in Laguna Beach, south of Los Angeles, and have made an appointment with Buffett to meet.
After Eric and Katzenberg said this, they went to the study on the basement floor. On the other side, Katzenberg also asked the secretary to fax the minutes of the morning meeting.
Compared with the decision made in a few words last night, the plan in hand is much more professional, and has considered all possible details.
Katzenberg on the phone was obviously very excited, and he chatted with Eric for half an hour, during which Eric also roughly browsed the entire proposal. Although Katzenberg has already set up a time for the meeting with Buffett, it can be seen from the media public relations plan in hand that aims to demonstrate the strength of Firefly Pictures that no one has much expectation for the deal to be negotiated in private.
Fortunately, after the two chatted about this matter, Katzenberg did not continue to talk about other things. He just asked Eric to go to the Firefly headquarters in the afternoon. Some documents needed to be signed by him, and then hung up the phone.
Eric sorted out the fax just now, turned around and saw Drew sitting quietly on the steps at the entrance, eating a sandwich in his hand, and said with a smile: "Scare me, why are you talking to me?" Like a cat, always silent."
"You just scared everyone." The girl stood up holding a sandwich, and said, "Suddenly we couldn't find you, and we thought you had escaped."
Eric walked out with Drew, and said with a smile, "Why should I run away?"
Xiao Nizi rolled her eyes, pretended to be confused and said, "I don't understand either, Nicole said it, you can ask her."
We came to the kitchen together and saw Eric appearing. The girls sitting quietly around the dining table seemed to be relieved. The strange atmosphere quickly dissolved. Nicole stood up smiling and helped Eric Pull out the seat.
Eric sat down and explained: "It took a long time to talk to Jeffrey. He is a workaholic and doesn't even think about whether others are having lunch. Hehe, why do you think I ran away? ah?"
Famke Jansen gave Eric a blank look, and said to the girls, "Let me just say, what a shameless guy he is, how is it possible."
Nicole recalled what she heard when chatting with Elizabeth once, and said, "How can it be impossible, this bastard has a criminal record."
Eric also realized that it was estimated that Elizabeth had said something to Nicole. It is always elusive what women will talk about, but there was a reason why he ran away in the first place. Facing a girl who might force you to marry me every minute after waking up, no one can resist.
"Okay, let's eat," Eric said like the host, looked at the women, and joked again: "Do you want to pray before the meal?"
Nicole picked up the dining area and said, "Forget it, God probably won't believe what you said."
There was a burst of light laughter in the restaurant. Although Eric was gentle and considerate most of the time, but his identity was there, the Cruz sisters and Connery did not dare to bicker and joke with Eric at will, looking at Nicole and Famke The appearance of bickering with Eric unscrupulously feels both fresh and a little envious.
Eric took a sip of the juice that Nicole just handed over, and waited for the girls to laugh, and said: "Thanksgiving is coming soon, since you haven't gone home, let's have a Thanksgiving dinner together, but I How about going to New York tomorrow, just tonight?"
The women looked at each other, and no one objected, so Eric settled down: "Then tonight, in the afternoon, you go to buy ingredients, by the way, does anyone know how to roast a turkey?"
Only Jennifer Connelly and Drew have the habit of Thanksgiving here, and obviously, neither of them will.
Xiao Nizi was just about to say that the chef could do it, but seeing so many women in the restaurant, even if they were chefs invited by the manor who signed a non-disclosure agreement, seeing this kind of scene would probably bring great shock. risk, so he kept his mouth shut.
Eric shook his head helplessly: "Then buy two more turkeys. I'll come back tonight and let's discuss it together. If it doesn't work, just order a roasted one from the restaurant."
"Eric, are you going shopping with us this afternoon?" Penelope asked at this time.
Eric shook his head: "I need to go to the Firefly headquarters. Before I leave Los Angeles, I need to deal with some things myself, but I should be back soon. Also, be careful when you go out, don't be caught by the paparazzi. "
"What are you going to do if we are discovered?" Nicole asked with a playful smile.
Eric shrugged and said with a smile: "Then I can only marry you all publicly."
Famke Jansen said: "Then we can only see you in the federal prison."
"Bring me more delicious food then," Eric said nonchalantly.
The women laughed again. In fact, for rich people in Eric's class, the constraints of federal laws are really so small that they can be ignored. As long as you don't do something too outrageous in the open, and you happen to be discovered, then the possibility of falling into prison is very small. Even if something happens, you can escape from prison by paying a huge amount of bail. disaster. As for more women, it is not a problem. It would be a strange thing if any billionaire lived with only one woman. (To be continued.)
