"That's it. I'll send someone over to discuss it as soon as possible." Adriaan, who was standing by the door, said to Elfner. Natalie had already agreed to the role, and her parents were very supportive, so there was no need for him to stay here.
"Thank you, Eide." Elfner shook hands with him and emphasized the word "thank you."
"It's nothing. You have an excellent daughter." Adriaan shrugged, then glanced at Natalie behind him. Although the girl had calmed down, she was still sensitive and quickly turned her head after meeting his eyes.
Adriaan, who knew what she was thinking, chuckled in his heart, then said goodbye and left in the car.
Frankly speaking, "Accompany You" was not a high box office movie, and its reputation was only average, but it was very suitable for Natalie now. Because of Adriaan, "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" received much more attention in the United States than in her previous life. Her superb acting skills and lively appearance were also more well-known, so what she needed now was to consolidate her image, not to pursue high box office or honor.
For child stars, it was not a good thing to receive too much praise when they were young, because it was easy to make comparisons in the future. Many people liked to say that a certain actor who started as a child star was very different from when they were young, not because their acting skills were not as good as before, but because it was easier to leave a deep impression when they were young. The more such impressions there were, the harder it would be for people to accept what they would look like in the future. Therefore, it was enough to have a more classic image. Jodie Foster's achievements had something to do with her fading out of the entertainment industry for a long time because of Reagan's assassination. Of course, there must be other factors, but I won't talk about them here.
In short, Natalie returned to the established track, acting in some supporting roles in independent films, honing her acting skills, and maintaining her reputation, then waiting for the opportunity to come. But there must be something different, just like the movie "Accompany You" that he was preparing for her now. With a little effort, if he could obtain a G-rating before the release, then the box office would definitely be higher than the original. Even if he couldn't make money, it should be no problem to recover the cost. Then, he would do some publicity. Now that he had his own media company, it was possible for him to raise the reputation of this movie to another level.
It would only be interesting if something was different, especially if it was something that he could control. Adriaan told himself in his heart. He turned his head and looked into the distance through the rear window. Although Natalie's house had long disappeared, the shy and embarrassed look of the girl still leaped into his mind.
Delicious Lolita. He murmured, touching his mouth. Unfortunately, it would take a long time. After all, she was different from the other fairy. Adriaan couldn't help but think of Kirsten on the set of Little Women. That little vixen was getting bolder and bolder. She actually dared to secretly harass him with so many people on the set.
This was probably related to the release of "Vampire Interview" at the end of August. The few test screenings had received good reviews. Annie Rice was even happy to say that Tom Cruise was the right choice to play Lester. Peter's Louis and Kirsten's Krau were also very good. She said that she would write a long review after the movie was released.
Kirsten, who received such praise, was naturally happy and looked forward to the release of the movie even more. Actually, Adriaan's original plan was to release "Vampire Interview" at the end of the year. But if it was delayed too long, it would affect the publicity of the movie. As for the main reason why he did this, as long as "Little Women" could be released on time at the end of the year, it wouldn't affect it. Also, it was time to give the little vixen more benefits.
Back at the hotel, Charlize unexpectedly came back as well.
"Didn't you say you want me to come back now?" Faced with Adriaan's question, Charlize looked surprised.
Adriaan was stunned for a few seconds before he couldn't help but laugh. With his memory, of course, he knew if he said this, and Charlize also knew this. But facing his teasing gaze, she had an expression that said "yes, I'm lying". This reaction was really interesting.
"That's great. Inform the crew, we're going to London now," Adriaan said immediately.
Charlize suddenly frowned. "Now? You've only been in New York for three days. "
"Things in New York have been settled, so of course it's time to go to London. The earlier I settle things there, the earlier I can come back to finish the rest of the new movie." Adriaan said with a smile. "Is there a problem?"
"No, but do I still have to go to London with you?" Charlize's frown deepened.
"Of course, I'm not going there to relax, and I'm not just going to London." Adriaan's smile became wider.
When the private plane arrived in London, it was around seven o 'clock in the morning. Because of the time difference, Adriaan's spirit was not very good. In the past, when he arrived in London, he had a fixed time to adjust to the time difference. Today, however, it was a last-minute idea, so his reaction was slightly bigger. If it took three hours to cross the Atlantic Ocean on the Hewo, it might be much better, but how could a flight be more convenient than a private plane?
After resting for a few hours in the hotel and exercising in the hotel gym for a while, Adriaan adjusted to his time difference in the evening.
"I'm going to Kate's house now, and I have to see Emma tomorrow. So, you can do whatever you want these few days, such as strolling around London. Of course, it would be better if you could take the time to sort out the information you need." Adriaan tidied up his clothes in front of the dressing mirror and said to Charlize, who entered the room without looking back, "But, you can also choose to see Emma with us. The little guy likes you very much."
"Very much?" Charlize, who was leaning against the door with her arms crossed, raised her eyebrows. The knee-length dress and silk coat showed off her figure well, and the translucent stockings and black pointed high-heeled shoes added a touch of sexiness to her.
"Of course, Emma often asks about you on the phone." Adriaan said as he walked over and patted her shoulder with a smile. "If possible, it's best to give me an answer now. It'll be easier for me to arrange it."
"Simply put, don't ask about you tonight, or even for the next few days, right?" Charlize snorted softly, her face full of disdain. Adriaan shrugged with a smile and leaned over to kiss her face, but she nimbly dodged it.
"Do you have something to say to me, Charley?" Adriaan stared into her grayish-green eyes and said.
"What do I want to say to you?" Charlize pretended to be calm as she fiddled with the hair on her face, but her head involuntarily turned to the side. Only then did she realize that Adriaan's two arms were on both sides of her, supporting against the wall.
"Really?" Adriaan showed a playful smile, clearly telling her: Do you think I don't know?
Charlize glared at him, her eyes seemed to be emitting fire, and her teeth unconsciously moved across her lips. She suddenly reached out her hand and pushed his shoulder fiercely. Caught off guard, Adriaan was suddenly pushed a few steps back by this huge force, and his face was even more surprised.
However, this was not the end. Charlize also took a few steps forward and pushed his shoulder again. Adriaan stepped back again and again, and finally sat on the bed in the room. Then the girl jumped up and pressed him on the bed, her whole body sitting on his lower abdomen. Her eyes were fierce, as if she wanted to devour someone.
"Wow, you finally showed your fierce side, Charley. I thought I would never see it." Although pressed on the bed like this, Adriaan still had the mood to joke.
"Shut up!" Charlize said fiercely after taking two breaths. She reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled it down fiercely. The sound of pulling suddenly rang out, and a button popped open. Adriaan's strong chest was immediately exposed to the air.
"My dear, don't you think you are a little rough … Hey!" He originally wanted to joke a few more words, but Charlize's next action made him unable to speak at all. She leaned down and bit his neck.
Well, it was not a bite, but it was not a kiss either. Or it might be more accurate to say that she licked and scratched with her teeth at the same time. In short, it was a little cool, a little moist, and a little painful, and the pain from his neck all the way to his chest.
Although he had played this kind of little trick with other women, it was the first time he was treated so rudely. But Adriaan did not push it away, but let Charlize vent like this.
"How do you feel, Eide?!" After supporting her body again, Charlize's tone was still fierce. Her golden hair was already messy, and her eyes were shining with excitement.
"I … I think …" Adriaan took a deep breath, "Actually …"
"I just want to do what should be decided by me!" Charlize shouted at him, "Do you remember what our agreement was before?! I said that only I can look for you to solve my problems! You are not allowed to look for me to solve your problems! Not allowed! Have you ever followed this? Eide?! Do you think you can manipulate me at will?! "
As she spoke, she suddenly turned around, unbuckled her belt, and buried her head down. Adriaan suddenly gasped. In front of him, Charlize's round buttocks were swaying in front of him. He immediately reached out to grab her thigh and caressed it all the way up. The seductive purple lace panties soon appeared in front of him, and then …
The sky outside the window had been dark for a long time, and the city's neon lights were flashing, casting a little light into the dark room. After the passion on the bed, the two were looking at each other without saying anything. From their even breathing, it could be seen that they had been in this state for a long time.
With a sigh, Charlize suddenly turned over and got out of bed. Her naked body crossed over the parts that were scattered everywhere and came to the floor-to-ceiling window. She looked at the city lights outside the hotel and sighed again.
She didn't know why she suddenly broke out. There was no warning, and it was irrational. At that moment, it seemed that she only wanted to show Adriaan a good look, or … show her right?
Charlize covered her forehead and groaned, and then felt a warm body on her back.
"What's wrong?" He asked in a gentle voice, and his big hands grabbed her shoulders, giving her an inexplicable sense of security.
"If you can, please don't put your thing against my buttocks," Charlize said without looking back.
Even so, she didn't move her body away, but let him hug her like this. All kinds of scenes from the past appeared in her mind, and it made Charlize's heart swirl with all kinds of feelings.
She kept telling herself that the reason she made that agreement with Adriaan was because she didn't want to lose this job. Well, his excellent sexual skills were also one of the reasons, so she would just treat it as a solution to her sexual life. In short, after working for a year and having enough experience, she would quit and go to another company. She didn't have to follow this guy who gave her a good first impression, but after getting to know him better, he was so terrible.
However, some people were like that, and you couldn't help but want to explore everything about them. Adriaan showed most of his things in front of her without hiding anything. His work, his life, his goals and plans, the number of women he was dating at the same time, what kind of movie he wanted to make, Charlize was very clear about all of this. Adriaan never hid anything. She even knew that he had fooled around with Julia and Monica at the Orange County villa last weekend.
The more it was like this, the more curious she was, and the more she wanted to study him thoroughly. Charlize thought it would be easy, and she kept telling herself that as long as she understood this man, she would naturally resign and leave, but until now, she hadn't done that.
Adriaan seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog. Every time Charlize thought she had seen through something, it would soon be replaced by an even bigger mystery. How could he go from knowing nothing about filmmaking to becoming the miracle director he was now in just a short two to three years? Why were the movies he was optimistic about not selling well or had excellent reviews? Why was he always able to choose the right movie for those actors? Why was his head always filled with all kinds of inspiration? Wait, wait, wait …
Charlize had been immersed in it until the day Kate came, when she blurted out "but a few months too early" full of jealousy, which woke her up. Unfortunately, at this moment, she had already sunk into a bottomless whirlpool. When she wanted to struggle out, she couldn't see the exit above her head. Whether it was the mysterious feeling of Adriaan that she couldn't figure out, the sense of security that his broad chest gave her, or the ridiculously high salary and the seemingly powerless job, Charlize couldn't give up.
"If there's anything on your mind, I'll be your best listener, just like you do for me." At this moment, Adriaan blew into her ear, and the courage that the girl had just mustered immediately vanished in the numbness of her ear.
"Do you really want to know?" Charlize turned around and looked at him with slightly narrowed eyes.
"Yes, that's right." Adriaan nodded seriously.
"Then why are you still putting your hand on my chest?"
"If you knead it regularly, maybe you can make it a cup bigger."
"You mean, my chest is very small?!"
"Of course not, your chest is very beautiful, and I like it very much. I just think it might look better if it's a little bigger."
After looking at Adriaan who was laughing and talking for a long time, Charlize suddenly turned around and walked to the bed. After turning on the bedside lamp, he found his underwear and began to put it on.
"Hey, Charley, weren't you going to say something?" Adriaan chased after him and asked.
"It doesn't matter anymore." Charlize shrugged. "I was going to tell you how much the staff in the company made up about me, such as' I got where I am today by sleeping with the chairman 'and other gossip, but now that I think about it, it's unnecessary. What they said is the truth."
"Of course not." Adriaan laughed and said, "No one knows your ability better than me. I have said more than once that without you, my life would be a mess, or do you think what I said is false?"
"That's already a good excuse." Charlize, who finally found a bra and was putting it on, said half-mockingly and half-self-deprecatingly, "What's more, they said that I'm just your …"
Before she could finish, Adriaan's big hand had already covered his mouth, and his face became abnormally serious.
"I don't want to hear such words again." He looked at her and said word by word, "This is insulting me and insulting yourself! Do you understand, Charley?! "
Charlize originally wanted to push his hand away and mock him, but as soon as she met Adriaan's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little shorter. After a light cough, she lowered her head and finally nodded.
"You're probably hungry, so clean up here. I'll ask the waiter to send some dinner to the room." Adriaan said as he fastened the bra for her, kissed her smooth shoulder, and then put on his trousers to make a phone call.
Looking at his back, Charlize gritted her teeth, and then sighed in her heart. This was how it was. No matter what happened, in the end, all emotions would be involuntarily controlled by him, because … she had feelings for him too.
Thinking about how every time she saw him go out on a date with someone, she would always feel unhappy, especially when Kate came to the villa. She saw everything clearly from behind her bedroom door, so the answer to this question was already obvious.
It didn't matter, it was fine. Charlize shook her head slightly and freely accepted this reality. In the past, because she didn't know why, she always suppressed her emotions, and as a result, today's outburst happened. There would be no such thing in the future. Although it was a little chaotic now, there was nothing wrong with it. She just needed to spend some time to study this guy who made people curious, and then she could leave.
Charlize thought confidently. As for whether this was her true thoughts, or what would happen in the end, who knew?
