"Do you want me to stuff an Apple into your mouth with your mouth wide open?" Adriaan jokingly asked the shocked little girl in front of him.
Emma Roberts shook her head somewhat mechanically. Her mouth was still wide open, and her eyes stared unblinkingly at the little girl in Adriaan's arms who was even smaller than her. The little girl was also biting her finger and looking at her curiously.
"Alright, Lily, you should call me Sister Emma, understand?" Adriaan pulled his daughter's finger out of her mouth.
"Sis … Sister!" Lily immediately giggled and waved at Emma.
"Ai … Eide …" Emma could finally speak. She looked around carefully, and after hesitating for a while, she lowered her voice and asked, "Aren't you … Aren't you living with Aunt …?"
"Do you know what living together means?" Adriaan smiled and pinched her cheek.
"Of course I know, I'm not a three-year-old child." Emma immediately pouted and put her hands on her hips like a little adult, looking very unhappy. "I also know what giving birth is, but I don't know that you guys …"
She pointed at Lily and did not speak anymore, but the confusion and doubt on her face was enough to explain the question she wanted to ask. But Adriaan did not answer. He just smiled and said, "Alright, let's get on the plane. The journey is still long."
After getting on Adriaan's private plane, Emma quickly put her previous doubts to the back of her mind. The interior decoration alone cost nearly ten million, and there were many fun places to play, so it quickly attracted the little girl's attention. Although this Emma was also very lively and cute, she was not as smart as the other Emma. If the other Emma encountered this kind of situation, she would definitely not give up until she figured out the whole story.
Of course, this had something to do with the fact that Lily was quite likable, so Emma quickly played with her. So when the plane stabilized, they happily played in the cabin under the guidance of the nanny.
"Listen to Ms. Clancy, don't make trouble for me, understand?" Adriaan pinched Emma's little nose and then hugged his daughter and kissed her. "You too, be good!"
Lily immediately stuck out her tongue and made a big face. Emma giggled at the side, and then followed Clancy to the entertainment room. Clancy was hired as a nanny after Lily was born, and had a good relationship with the little girl. With her around, they would be fine.
Adriaan originally wanted to talk to Emma about the problem at the airport, but on second thought, although the little girl was not particularly smart, she was not stupid. Moreover, because of Adriaan, she had been living with her celebrity aunt, so she knew what to say and what not to say. Even if there might be a problem, don't forget that this time he was bringing her to England to see the other Emma. Although they had only met a few times, little Emma was very obedient to the other Emma, so as long as little Emma gave her a few reminders, she would definitely take it seriously.
Bringing little Emma along was because the two Emmas missed each other a little, and Julia did not have much time to spend with her, so Adriaan simply brought her to London for a walk. So why did he bring Lily? It was very simple. He could not always leave his daughter by Kate's side. After all, Adriaan was the little fellow's father. Although he was a playboy, he still had a sense of responsibility.
This was the difference between him and some people. Some might say that he was hypocritical, and some might say that he was hypocritical, but Adriaan would not take it to heart. He only did what he wanted to do.
"Grace, I'm going to take a nap. Remember to wake me up in three hours," Adriaan said to the cabin captain while looking at the mirror and undoing his tie.
"Yes, sir. Is there anything else?" Grace walked over, took off his coat and hung it in the cloakroom. She then began to make the bed, which was worthy of her salary.
"Be careful of the children. Although Ms. Clancy is taking care of them, you'd better be careful not to let them mess around," Adriaan said after thinking for a while.
"Yes, sir. Is there anything else?" Grace nodded to show that she remembered, and then asked again.
Adriaan's eyes finally fell on her, and then he raised his eyebrows imperceptibly. Grace was wearing a boat-shaped hat, a silk scarf around her neck, and a sky-blue stewardess uniform that fully displayed her curves. Her hands, which were covered in silk and white gloves, were behind her back. Under her skirt, her two slender legs were wearing nude-colored stockings and high heels. One of them was on the ground, and the other was slightly back. Her posture was quite perfect, as if she was asking, but also … showing.
Moreover, her facial features were also considered exquisite. Her golden wavy hair hung down softly, and there was a sincere smile on her face. She also had two shallow dimples. She was very cute and charming.
"No, no need." Adriaan smiled and said so.
"Okay, sir." Grace did not show a disappointed look. She maintained her smile, nodded, and then walked out.
After a long sigh of relief, Adriaan stretched, took off his shoes and socks, and lay on the bed. If it was any other time, he would never let go of such a stunner that came to his door, but now it was better to forget about it. After all, the private plane had only been used less than ten times since it was delivered. He did not know the crew very well. If something went wrong, it would be troublesome.
Although Adriaan seemed to be very casual when it came to women, except for those one-night stands, he had enough understanding of his women. Otherwise, how could he control them?
Apart from that, he had played with two petite women for most of the night before falling asleep. Then, because he had to rush back to England, he woke up a little early. Therefore, he did not have any thoughts of playing with them for the time being. This was also one of the reasons why he was catching up on sleep.
Because he did not do those things when he was with Kate, but he wanted to make up for the seven days and seven nights. Therefore, he naturally carried two women to the bed. One of them was Yuki Nakama, who continued to be his personal maid, and the other was Hamasaki Ayumi, who came to the United States to study.
She went to Adriaan's bed a few days after she arrived, and she already had that intention. In addition, Adriaan had shown enough respect for her, and his words were very appropriate. Even so many women couldn't resist him, not to mention Hamasaki Ayumi.
Most importantly, during the few days that she stayed in Adriaan's house, she stayed in the same room with Yuki Nakama, saying that she was seeking guidance from her senior. On the other hand, Adriaan would practically make Yuki Nakama Ayumi's face red every night before letting her go. After doing this three times, if Hamasaki Ayumi still didn't understand, she would think that it was someone else pretending to be Yuki Nakama Ayumi.
Even after she moved out, as long as she received a call from Adriaan, she would still obediently come over to serve him. Naturally, Adriaan had also vaguely told her that it was basically impossible for Asians to sell their albums in the United States. However, he also expressed that as long as she was in Aihui, he would support her.
"Aihui might not be comparable to a major record company like Sony, but it's more energetic. The few producers are also skilled, and Nami Amuro is the best proof. However, you won't become the second Nami Amuro, but the number one singer in Japan, or even Asia. " As the climax lingered, Adriaan said while caressing Hamasaki Ayumi's smooth skin.
Hamasaki Ayumi did not fully believe him, but she didn't doubt him either. After all, after several interactions, Adriaan's understanding of Japan and Asia far exceeded many Americans. Furthermore, everyone knew that his foresight was accurate. So when Adriaan asked her if she was willing to take a gamble and see if his foresight was still accurate in Japan, she immediately wrapped her limbs around him and started serving him again.
Thinking about the matters in her family and what she had been through, she felt that there was no harm in taking a gamble.
Therefore, when Yukio also appeared at the dinner table, Hamasaki Ayumi immediately understood. However, there was no resistance in her mind at all. After entering the bedroom, she was even more proactive than Yukio. However, Yukio wasn't at a disadvantage. Back in Japan, she had served Adriaan together with Takako Tsunepan. After coming to Los Angeles, she had a better understanding of him, so she became more respectful.
What's more, with his support, Yukihui had already embarked on the path to her dream. She had made guest appearances in several popular TV series, such as "Friends", "Sex and the City", "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", and so on. She had also accumulated some popularity. Now, Adrian had even arranged for her to play a supporting role in "Pretty Woman", which was said to have been specially edited for her. Yukihui had completely regarded herself as his woman. She even hoped that she could stay by his side to tidy up his room and clean up for him.
"I can't do anything else, so please ask Eide to let me stay." When Adriaan asked her why, Yukio replied and even knelt on the ground.
In this way, Adriaan couldn't refuse anymore. Anyway, as an Asian, she wouldn't receive as much attention as other stars in Hollywood, so it wasn't a big deal to let her stay by his side as a maid. However, using this method to occupy a small place in his heart, Yukio wasn't without schemes.
In short, last night was a very pleasant night. The two petite girls fought to be the first to offer themselves, and they were constantly competing with each other. Even when they took turns to take the attack, they would compare whose moans were more ecstatic. It was no wonder that Adriaan would play for half the night.
"I wonder how the shooting in London is going. I hope it's not too bad." Thinking of this, Adriaan fell into a deep sleep.
Although this week was very slow, Adriaan did not forget to contact London. Although he arranged everything before he left, who knew if anything would go wrong? After all, no one had ever tried to shoot two movies at the same time. At first, the news that came was not bad, but then it became not so good. Last night, the assistant director simply said on the phone, "You'd better come back quickly."
Confused, Adriaan called Charlize again, but Charlize didn't reveal any more information. He also just said, "You'd better come back quickly." So early in the morning, Adriaan boarded a private plane with Emma and Lily.
Even so, he wasn't too worried. As long as the two crew strictly followed his arrangements, even if something went wrong, it wouldn't be too bad. Besides, the scenes he arranged for them were not complicated. However, when Adriaan arrived in London, he found that the situation of the crew was far worse than he had imagined.
"What should I say? I didn't even finish half of it. " In the temporary office of the crew, Adriaan sighed angrily and helplessly. The main people in charge lowered their heads and didn't speak.
To be honest, Adriaan wanted to severely reprimand them. Not only was their efficiency surprisingly low, but their control of the scene was also quite bad. Everything was fine two days before he left, but as time went by, the two crews had too many things in common, so the management became chaotic. They often mixed together during the shooting.
For example, after Blanchett patiently put on her makeup and put on a thick layer of white foundation, she dressed up like Elizabeth I in the painting. When she found a seat on the set and was about to start shooting, she was shocked to find that this was not right. Wasn't this the scene in Shakespeare's Love History where Elizabeth I watched the play in the palace? Why did she have to sit here?!
Similarly, after Gwyneth put on her costume and dressed up like an authentic British lady, she came to the set only to find that this was not the rowing scene in Elizabeth. What did it have to do with her?!
For example, Denis read the lines from Elizabeth to Gwyneth, and the cunning and cold Sir Walsingham became a wretched theater owner in front of the Queen. Blanchett was the most unlucky because she played Elizabeth I, and Elizabeth I appeared in both movies. So, she often appeared on the set of Shakespeare's Love History with Gwyneth, Denis, Jeffrey, and the others after putting on makeup.
It was precisely because of this chaos that all kinds of waste, film, props, costumes, manpower, and so on were caused. During the shooting of the rowing scene in Elizabeth, because Gwyneth was not supposed to appear, there was a scheduling problem that caused a boat to overturn midway, and the extras on the boat were all thrown into the water. Fortunately, no one was injured.
But because of this chaos, the news was leaked. Just the day before Adriaan returned, the British media were reporting that a disaster had occurred on the set of Director Miracle's new movie due to scheduling problems.
"This is really terrible. I still don't understand why someone would order two boats to sail across each other, and why the pilot would listen to this order. I really don't know how Director Miracle will feel when he comes back. I suggest that he should not abandon the crew and run around without a care in the future. " The tabloids, led by The Sun, reported with some schadenfreude. By the time they found out that Adriaan was not in London, he had already been gone for a few days. In addition, they had not been able to dig out any important news from him, so it was inevitable that they would seize this opportunity to complain.
"I have to say, gentlemen, you have disappointed me. Once you discovered a problem, you should have immediately stopped filming. Even if the filming was a little slower, it would have been much better than this mess." Adriaan said seriously. In the end, he did not choose to reprimand them. After all, if his colleagues had not started filming two movies, such a chaotic situation would not have happened. Moreover, he had just gotten off the plane and had not recovered from the jet lag. He was not in good spirits. Even if he wanted to reprimand them severely, his yawning from time to time did not seem imposing.
Of course, this did not mean that the matter was over.
"For the time being, in the next few weeks, I need all of you to do your best and make up for everything that has been wasted! I don't want to hear complaints! "Adriaan then raised his voice and said.
"Yes."
"Of course."
"We will."
Several people in charge nodded and walked out. Adriaan let out a long breath again and grabbed Charlize's hand, who was about to go out as well.
"You've worked hard," he said, and though his face was tired, his eyes that looked at her were full of smiles of approval.
"I have to live up to my salary, don't I?" Although Charlize shrugged indifferently, as if it was a matter of course, there was a trace of happiness in his tone.
Although the crew had only completed half of the progress he had set, they were infinitely close to the halfway mark, and most of this was due to Charlize. As an assistant who had stayed by Adriaan's side for several years and was responsible for almost all of his affairs, she had a good understanding of his style. Therefore, when the two crews crossed paths and had various disputes, she helped to straighten out a lot of things. If not for her lack of authority, she might have been able to recover more losses.
"When I returned to Los Angeles, I regretted not bringing you back. Those big and small documents were a headache to deal with. But now I think that leaving you here was a very good decision. Otherwise, God knows how chaotic it would be. " Adriaan stroked her hand and said in a regretful tone, then raised his head and smiled. "You know, I have to say something old again."
"Since it's old, then there's no need to say it." As soon as Charlize finished speaking, a strong force came from her hand, and then she fell on Adriaan.
"Ha, you fell after just one pull. You're really soft, Charley." Adriaan laughed.
"Be careful of someone breaking in." Charlize, who was lying on him, rolled her eyes at him.
"So what? I didn't do anything. " Adriaan shrugged, then stared into her gray-green eyes. He held her with one hand and gently stroked her beautiful face with the other.
"If you think some words are too much, then I will express them in another way," he said in a low voice.
The two of them looked at each other in silence. For a few seconds, the room was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Then, Charlize took the initiative to move forward and kissed him on the lips.
"Let's get down to business first, Eide." She said as she stood up. The smile on her face made her look exceptionally beautiful.
"Yes, let's get down to business first." Adriaan nodded and also stood up from the chair. They had to try to finish before Thanksgiving. Although they were delayed a lot by these guys, it didn't mean that they had to change this goal.
