"What's wrong?" Adriaan, who saw Sarah's reaction, raised his head and asked.
"Nothing, just a little …" Sarah made a gesture, her eyelids still lowered, as if she didn't want to talk about it.
"Well, is there something on your mind?" Adriaan asked another question. "I saw you in a trance when you came down from upstairs. That's why you sprained your ankle and fell down."
"It's not like that!" Although Sarah denied it again and again, her frown clearly told Adriaan that he was right.
"Then, let me guess." Adriaan smiled and grabbed Sarah's foot to rub it for her.
Sarah suddenly cried out. She didn't know whether to take her foot back from Adriaan's arms or not. Her face was full of embarrassment, and at the same time, she was a little distracted. But Adriaan's next words shocked her. "I think it's probably because you didn't get selected in the audition for 'True Lies', right?"
"I … um …" Sarah wanted to deny it, but after stuttering, she finally admitted it. "Yes, it's like this. Mr. James … said I'm not suitable."
She lowered her head and seemed very frustrated. Her hands were clenched tightly, showing that she was very unwilling. Adriaan then patted Sarah's arm. "Don't be like this. It's just an audition. There will always be a chance."
"But …" Sarah suddenly raised her head and looked at Adriaan with pleading eyes. "Mr. Adriaan, can … can you give me another chance? I heard … I heard that you are the sponsor of this movie … "
At the end, her breathing became a little short. She bit her lip, and there was more pleading in her eyes.
Adriaan looked at her for a long time until Sarah couldn't stand it anymore. He reached out and touched her head. "Well, I will ask James to give you another chance at the audition. Take advantage of it!"
"Thank you, Adriaan … Eide!" Sarah said gratefully. But after a pause, she suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed subtly. She looked uncertainly at Adriaan, who lowered his head and continued to rub her foot.
Just then, the door of the room opened. Roslan and Kate, who had already changed clothes and carried a first-aid kit, hurried in. To Adriaan's surprise, Monica was with them.
"Sarah sprained her ankle? How is it now? "Kate took a few steps forward and squatted in front of Adriaan.
"It's nothing, it's not very serious. Adrian placed Sarah's calf in Carter's arms. "It's a little red, but you don't need to bandage it. You'll be fine after a short rest. You can walk around as long as you don't walk too fast."
"Does that mean I came here for nothing?" Carter pouted at Adrian and shook the first aid kit in his hand.
"So I came here for nothing?" Kate pursed her lips at Adriaan and shook the first-aid kit in her hand. "How could you come here for nothing?" Adriaan chuckled. "You and Roslan stay here with Sarah. I still have to go downstairs to deal with them. I'll bring you some drinks and snacks when I come back later."
As he said that, he got up and walked towards the door. When he passed by Monica, he pretended to remember something and was about to say something to Monica, but Monica spoke first, "Well, it seems like I have nothing to do here. I'll go downstairs with you, Eide!"
Then she said goodbye to Kate and walked out of the room without looking back. Adriaan looked at Monica's back and shrugged. He said goodbye to Kate and the others again and left the room.
"What did you guys talk about today?" Adriaan asked after catching up with Monica.
"Is there a problem?" Monica's tone was indifferent.
"No, I'm just asking. I'm a little curious." Adriaan gestured.
"Some simple and personal topics, such as fashion." Monica looked at him and raised her chin slightly. "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Really?" Adriaan smiled. He suddenly put his arm around Monica's waist and pressed her against the wall, making a soft thud. Then he pinched her face, lifted her thighs, and almost violently occupied her sexy lips. His whole body was tightly pressed against hers, making it impossible for her to resist.
After a long while, the two of them finally separated. Monica gasped for breath and looked at the staircase that was just a few feet away from her. The noise was coming from below. Then she looked at the relatively quiet corridor. No one was walking around.
"I have to remind you, Eide. It's easy to be seen here." She puffed out her towering chest as if she didn't care, but the annoyance and dissatisfaction didn't escape his eyes.
"It's okay. She'll know sooner or later." Adrian unceremoniously grabbed her softness and squeezed it twice. After Monica let out a small moan, he let go of her and left her body.
"So you're ready to lay your cards on the table?" Monica adjusted herself a little and returned to her previous demeanor. "To be frank, your little girlfriend is still very naive and innocent. I'm afraid it's not easy for her to accept reality."
"You don't have to worry about that, Monica." Adriaan reached out and pinched her chin. "I can more or less guess what you're thinking. It's okay. It's normal. It's not a big deal. As long as … you understand?"
Watching his fingertips glide across Monica's face, Adriaan smiled, then turned around and walked downstairs. "Okay, I'm going downstairs. That's all."
It wasn't until his back disappeared at the stairs that Monica punched the wall and sighed.
Although the living room was still noisy and there were many couples dancing on the dance floor, as time went by, people still left the party. Most of them left because Adriaan didn't provide accommodation. Those who felt the same could only go to a hotel or go to each other's houses after their relationship deepened. However, there were also people who went back to rest because it was too late.
"Are you leaving just like that, Julie? Don't you want to stay a little longer? "Adriaan walked Julia to the front yard.
"It's going to be late soon. I should go back. You know, sleeping too late isn't good for your skin." Julia fiddled with her hair that was blown up by the wind.
"You're beautiful all the time," Adriaan said in a sincere tone.
"Is that so?" Julia turned her head and looked at him with a playful expression. "No matter how beautiful I am, it's not as tempting as this iconic mouth, right?"
"Oh, hell, that's just a joke." Adriaan raised his hands and waved them. "Don't be so sensitive, okay?"
He leaned forward and looked at Julia. Julia didn't say anything. She leaned back slightly and looked back at Adriaan. After a few minutes, the two tacitly looked away. Fortunately, Julia's car drove over at that moment and broke the awkward atmosphere.
"Goodnight, Eide." After Adriaan opened the car door for her, Julia smiled and walked to the door. After hesitating for two or three seconds, she suddenly leaned over and gently touched his face. Then, she sat in the car.
"Goodnight, sweet dreams!" Adriaan didn't say much. He closed the door for Julia and watched her car leave the villa. Then, he touched the spot on his face and shrugged. He chuckled and went back into the house.
Even though a part of the party had left, the liveliness of the party didn't decrease by much. People were still happily playing. As the host, Adriaan walked around the house again. After greeting many people, he went to the bar and ordered a bottle of beer to take a break. However, he was quickly attracted by Denis on the other side of the bar.
The kid was talking and laughing with a young girl. Adriaan originally thought that he had brought Winona, but he thought it was unlikely. The love triangle between him, Winona, and Dep had been exposed by the media last month. It had caused a lot of uproar. Denis had personally admitted to him that he wanted to calm down with Winona. It was impossible for them to reconcile so quickly, right?
Adriaan couldn't help but look at the girl carefully. She had long brown hair and a little baby fat. Her face was a little round, but she looked quite cute. According to visual estimation, she was about five feet six inches tall, but she weighed at least 135 to 140 pounds. This made her look a little too plump.
Why does this kid like this kind of taste? Adriaan couldn't help but tease in his heart. Although Denis had been pursuing Winona, they had never officially established a relationship. At the same time, he had played a lot of one-night stands, and most of his partners were sweet girls. How could he … Wait a minute! Adriaan suddenly frowned and carefully looked at the girl who was talking and laughing with Denis again. She looked so familiar. Could it be?
With a question in mind, he walked over to Dennis with a beer bottle in his hand. "Hey, Dan, how was it tonight?"
"Hey, Eide." Denis smiled and clinked his bottle. "Great party."
"This is …" Adriaan immediately looked at the girl sitting next to him.
"This is Jennifer." Denis introduced her to him. "Jennifer Aniston."
Sure enough, Adriaan's heart was clear. He maintained a smile and held out his hand. "Hello, Miss Aniston — do you mind if I call you Jennifer or Jane? You can also call me Adriaan or Eide. "
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Eide." Jennifer, who was still very plump, was flattered and shook hands with him. "I really liked the 'How to Know a Woman by Scent' that you directed. That tango was amazing."
"Thank you. I'm glad you liked it." Adriaan said with a smile. At the same time, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. "Are you also an actress? I seem to have heard your name somewhere. "
"Yes, Jane is an actress." Noticing Adriaan's expression, Denis subconsciously leaned toward Jennifer. "Her father and godfather are both actors. She has also acted in many Broadway plays."
This guy. Adriaan couldn't help but shake his head with a smile in his heart. Okay, Jennifer Aniston was indeed a beautiful girl, but he didn't have much interest in her. He was just thinking about the "Friends" that claimed there would be no more sitcoms after it ended!
