Chapter 33 Nothing new under the sun

As Adrian expected, the day after the premiere of "Agent Beautiful" was unexpectedly consistent in the comments of major media: vulgar popcorn movies, but they are still interesting and suitable for passing the time.

As for the heroine's performance...

It's pretty good. Although Miss Kate Beckinsale has a good grasp of character shaping, she is obviously not a movie that suits this style very well.

The San Francisco Chronicle said so.

As AC Media's closest partner, Hurst, all the largest newspapers under this review, and you can imagine what other media will describe it.

The better ones are similar to the San Francisco Chronicle, and the more mean ones directly say that she does not have the acting skills she showed in "28 Days". If Kate wants to develop in comedy, then romantic romantic comedy like "Destiny of Destiny" should be her choice, rather than a character who takes the lead and combines funny and acting skills.

In short, under the sarcastic mockery of these guys, Kate was described as extremely unbearable, just pointing at his nose and saying, "It's better to continue to practice in those niche movies for a few years."

Perhaps these evaluations have played a negative role, so the box office is not optimistic. The 2,750 theaters have only 12 million in three days on weekends, which is already relatively poor at this time.

However, Adrian didn't take it seriously. Although the box office was lower than expected, it was still within an acceptable range. We could increase the publicity efforts. If the increase was high enough, it wouldn't matter even if the final box office was a little different from the original. As for the reputation...

I really didn't care, why should I care?Especially with you here.Faced with Adrian's inquiry, Kate shrugged indifferently, a little helpless but a little secretly happy.

That's true. Director Miracle didn't say anything, and didn't look worried at all. So what else can she worry about?

Unexpectedly, Adrian, who had been seen through, immediately laughed. Although this experiment was not very successful, it cannot be said that it was unsuccessful before the final box office came out. This movie was originally aimed at box office rather than reputation.

But they were all satisfied, but some were not very satisfied. Lily was very unhappy that she could not watch her mother's movie as soon as possible.

The five-year-old guy was at least 6 years old. Not only did he understand a lot of things, he could even understand some manuscripts without unusual words in the newspaper, and he often took DVs to shoot everywhere. Although the pictures were very unstructured, it was still quite interesting to take out a single picture. Kate couldn't help but joke that she inherited Adrian's interest and talent in making movies.

I thought Little Emma's precocious puberty was because she was very smart, but now it seems that Adrian is also influenced by it, but Lily should not become a little devil in a few years like Little Emma.

However, although Lily is smart enough, many things are not something she can understand now, so she is very dissatisfied with her parents' decision to keep her at home on the day of the premiere.

I just want to see my mother. I have watched the movies of my mother many times. I have also watched a lot of movies of Aunt Sarah, Aunt Yuki Hui, Aunt Monica, and Aunt Sophie. I just want to go to the scene to see them. Isn’t even this one?

The little guy stood in front of his father with his hands on his hips, looking up at him angrily.

Adrian was startled at first. Whether it was Kate, Sarah, Yuki Hye, Monica, or Sophie, many movies were not something she could watch at her age, and if she wanted to watch other movies, she had to be with her side. Although the private cinema was very strict, it would be bad if the little guy secretly took the video tape and watched it privately. She had done a lot of similar things.

Fortunately, after asking Yuki Hye, she learned that Lily did not watch those movies that were not suitable for her to watch now. Monica's one was "The Matrix" and Sophie's one was "First Kiss".

I think she is so self-conscious, which is probably related to Adrian's solemn advice. In the little guy's heart, his father is still very prestigious, so

Believe me, my dear?

Adrian held his daughter in his arms. Some things are not something you can understand now, so sometimes when parents don’t explain it to you, it’s not that they don’t want to explain it, but that they don’t know how to explain it.

But I have figured out a lot of things now. I know that I came out of my mother's belly, not from a crane.

The little guy wants to struggle a little longer, I can also disassemble the DV and install it back...

Before the next sentence was finished, Adrian came out long and looked at Lily with a smile.

The little guy's face suddenly turned red. After twisting, he said aloofly: Okay, I admit that Aunt Yuji Hui has helped a lot, but I have carefully recorded every step. If I disassemble it again, I will definitely restore it!

After saying that, she raised her chest again, but she was even less confident.

OK, little guy.Adrian loves pity pinchs his daughter's face. Wait for another two years, and when you start school, you will know why your parents do this.

Lily agreed reluctantly, and at the same time she was even more curious about why she had to wait until she went to school before telling herself?

She knew she would go to school sooner or later, but now she sounds like she is a bit scary.

Adrian didn't explain to her daughter anymore. Anyway, she would naturally know that, and judging from the current situation, it is very likely that she will not be able to wait for that time. It seems that she has to teach her to be open-minded when she has time.

Logically speaking, "Agent Beautiful" should go to London to make an appointment after it was released. The filming of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is coming to an end, and what promised Emma to go there before completing the filming.

But Adrian is still staying leisurely in Los Angeles and enjoying life. There is no need to worry. As long as he arrives in London before the last day of Feng Jing, he is not considered a breach of trust, right?

As for the fact that little Emma may be dissatisfied with this, she has never been dissatisfied with it?

So don’t take it seriously. I just completed two movies and it’s time to rest. In London, I not only pay for Emma, ​​but also have some activities to participate in. So what if I spend more time with my daughter now?

The two little guys Deva and Juliet could already start crawling all over the room, but no matter how much they crawled all over the room, it was much quieter than her sister. Lily had climbed all over Adrian's mansion, and when she started climbing, she was lying next to the stairs. If the nanny hadn't stopped her in time, she might have tried to explore. Although she would occasionally cry, she never remembered a lesson. Once it stopped the pain, she started crawling everywhere.

I didn't. This is my father's false accusation!Of course, Lily would definitely not admit it, even though she was crawling around with her two sisters smiling.

Playing with your daughter is just a rest, and practicing Kung Fu with your woman is also a rest.

Finally a little exciting, very good, come again.Adrian, wearing short-sleeved extended trousers, waved to Sarah with a blue mat.

What does it mean to be a little bit exciting!

Sarah, who was constantly exchanging her feet in her practice suit, said in a gasping voice, and then suddenly turned around and hit the mat in Adrian's hand with a steadily.

Bang, the mat made a muffled sound. Obviously, her kick was very powerful. Unfortunately, Adri, who was holding the mat, stood there steadily without even shaking it.

Useless, Sarah.Adrian laughed, Do you remember what I said?

You will use this method to show your existence, Ed!

Sarah, who then kicked her twice, stopped and took a breath, and then shouted angrily, if you had a one-on-one fight, you would have fallen down long ago!

Yeah?Adrian raised his eyebrows and threw the mat in his hand out.

Sarah hummed and was about to sarcastically say a few more words, then she changed her face when she thought of something, and then she screamed: Don't think about it...

Before he could finish calling, Adrian had already spread his arms and rushed over. Sarah, who was still quite imposing just now, had her first reaction screamed and she lowered her waist and hid from his armpit.

Ha, it's getting faster and faster to hide.Adrian laughed, his tone filled with teasing, and Sarah's face turned red.

If you come over again, I'm not polite!She restrained her mind and put on a fierce attitude, but her eyes were a little wandering.

Yeah?Then I'll come over.Adrian also acted like a predator, observed for a few seconds and rushed towards her again.

Sarah immediately lowered her body and swept her down the plate without hesitation. Unfortunately, the other party just had a feint attack and retreated immediately, and then she really rushed forward.

Sarah was also not vague, and immediately jumped back and then kicked sideways.

With the sound of the wind, it seemed very powerful. However, she thought Adrian would avoid the kick sideways, but he stood there without moving, just raised his arm to the side, and then a muffled sound

Ed!Sarah screamed in shock, and as soon as she finished speaking, her ankle was caught by the other party.

You are caught now.

Adrian grinned a little. It seemed that the moment was still very painful, but he didn't stop the movement in his hand. He immediately went forward, and then Sarah fell into his arms with a whisper.

Don't try to escape from me!

He said, picking up the girl and pressing it down to the ground.

In the gym, Sarah was specially arranged for a place to practice Taekwondo, and she didn't have to worry about falling or something when she was slapped with thick mats.

Ed!

Sarah, whose legs were pressed and unable to move, screamed and kept knocking her fists at him, but Adrian didn't care about that at all. She pressed her tightly on her body, and then put her hands on her.

I knew, you bastard... Sarah twisted her body and tried her best to resist, but she looked like she was half-pushing and half-paced. Her already blushed face became even more rosy. After a moment, the breathing sounded, and the wide training suit was pulled apart, and the pair of firm and soft rolled out because they didn't wear a bra.

Sarah's hands and feet became weaker and weaker. When Adrian grabbed the exposed softness, she completely gave up on resisting.

Well, she didn't resist very fiercely from the beginning. From the previous conversation, it can be inferred that such things have happened more than once. So, in the huge unmanned gym, the two began the most primitive exercise.

You just like this.After a long time, Sarah, who was crawling on Adrian, said this.

This makes me feel very accomplished!Adrian kissed her head. I finally got such a powerful woman. This feels very good, doesn’t it?

It makes you very sexually interesting, right?Sarah put her chin on his chest and said half-complainted and half-taught as she watched him pout.

Adrian laughed, then hugged Sarah and got up, holding her butt, without pulling out the things, went straight to the bathroom in the gym.

The thrilling water sprayed from the spray head and poured on the naked bodies of the two. Adrian and Sarah continued to make out and warm while bathing.

What's wrong?After taking a shower, Sarah, who was wiping her hair, turned her head to ask Adrian. He sat in the bathroom chair with a scarf, supporting her face and stared at her for a long time without blinking.

Suddenly, he thought of a sentence from the Bible. Adrian stood up and walked to her, staring at her face, and there was nothing new under the sun.

Why did you say this suddenly?Sarah was a little puzzled.

After staring at her for a few more seconds, Adrian spoke: I saw you in a girl.

What I was back then?You mean… Sarah’s expression became subtle.

Yes.Adrian nodded affirmatively.

You must be very happy.

Although Sarah said in a teasing tone, her eyes were full of depression and helplessness. Although she accepted the reality and had a good relationship with Kate and Charlize, it did not mean that she would like to share it with other women.

Maybe, it's just that some things can't be found.Adri sighed as he comforted her face.

Sarah had no contact, but there was a gentle look on her eyebrows. She naturally knew what Adrian was talking about. As Adrian became more and more powerful, the purpose of women approaching him became stronger and stronger. It was almost impossible for her and him to have a relationship from dealing to heart-to-heart talk again.

Was she...abandoned by her father?After a moment of silence, she finally asked the question.

Worse than that.

Adrian shook her head gently, her parents were charged for drug trafficking and drug hiding. Her mother was pregnant with her in prison and then gave birth to her in a hospital near the prison. She didn't even have a guardian when she was born.

This is really terrible.Sarah said in surprise.

Her parents divorced a few years later, and now they are strangers. Her mother has not restrained her body and has to cause some trouble every few days. Sending her daughter to learn acting is also more likely to make money by attracting actors.

Adrian sighed. I knew her at the beginning because she deliberately acted in front of me for a role, so I was not surprised at all when I made such a request, so...

So for humane reasons, you agreed, right?Even though I was surprised, I was not much joke.

I have been thinking about it for a long time. She is different from you. You will act like this not only for yourself but also for your mother, but she is completely for yourself.Adrian sighed again.

In short, you agreed.Sarah smiled, maybe I could take some time to talk to her, maybe she just…want some sense of security.

Um…you are here again.Adrian suddenly hugged her waist, I haven't settled the score on what you said to Kate and Charlie last time!

It's been so long, and I've said that the prosecution period has been long ago. Oh, damn it, do you really think I dare not beat you? Ed deserves to die, don't do this!

The hilarious and joking sounded in the bathroom.

There is no doubt that the girl Adrian mentioned was Litton Mester, who, after she acted in front of him for the character in CSI, investigated her family in detail.

Although she had seen too many things in her past and present life, Adrian was still shocked by her strange parents, especially her mother, the woman named Connie, who was really a selfish woman. Most of the money she earned from her hard work in acting was spent by her. Although some of the money she had also been used to support Lidon's career, it was also to make her make more money.

I have to say that Liton was very low-key and tolerant in her previous life. Adrian searched for a long time in his memory before finding information about her and her mother's visit to court, and the fact that her mother misappropriated the treatment costs for her sick brother. Although the amount of information was not large, it was enough to prove that she had become cold with her mother a long time ago.

If she doesn't care about her mother's differences, she does have some similarities with Sarah, otherwise Adrian wouldn't think of her after playing with Sarah today, but sometimes she looks very similar to Kirsten.

Since Litton's performance, he has already made plans in his mind, otherwise he would not have someone to go to Burbank to collect another situation, and also arranged the movie "Very Little Spy" for her.

However, although he revealed something intentionally or unintentionally that he had already seen her acting when he gave her the role of "CSI", he never found a suitable opportunity to test it, not to mention that it was still a bit early.

However, what I didn't expect was that Lidon actually came to him on his own initiative.

I need your support, Mr. Adrian, what can I do for you.

In an office on the set, Litton said this immediately after she asked to chat with Adrian in private. Although her fists were clenched tightly, her lips were pursed tightly after saying that, and her eyes were filled with a look of sacrificingness, but the expression on her face was always very calm.

Adrian was surprised and did not agree immediately. Although he had arrangements for the other party in his heart, Litton was different from Sarah and Kirsten after all, so Sarah and her mother would not talk about it. Although Kirsten's mother likes to show off, she still fulfilled her mother's basic responsibilities.

But Liton is different. Although children who grew up in such a family are precocious and independent, they have two fatal shortcomings. First, they are easy to close their hearts, and then become too selfish. To put it bluntly, they are too selfish and gentle on the outside, but they may suddenly become angry; second, they can do whatever they want for their own purposes. Although there are very few things like Penelope who are dizzy and interfere in things that they should not intervene, no one can be sure that it will not happen again in the future.

Moreover, Adrian and Liton have not been in contact for much time, so I am not sure that I can see this girl clearly.

More importantly, how could Lidon suddenly tell him such a thing? Sarah and Kirsten's original affairs were very secretive.

If it were the past, he wouldn't mind. As the power increased, it would be hard to say now, so he finally answered like this: Let's find some time to have a good chat after two days.
