King of Hollywood

There was a knock on the door, followed by mother's voice: "Nada, it's time to get up."

"I'm getting dressed, Mom." Natalie, who had adjusted her mood after coming out of the bathroom, replied through the door.

"Favorite, hurry up, honey, don't forget what you have to do today." Mom said again immediately.

Natalie, who was wearing pants, couldn't help but suffocate, and her body almost lost her balance. Fortunately, she put her feet on the stool in time to support her: "Okay, Mom, give me another five minutes."

After taking a deep breath and saying "nothing" to herself several times, Natalie finally calmed down again. It took a few minutes to get fully dressed, and after a little grooming, he went out and walked downstairs, but his legs softened as soon as he reached the bottom, and he almost wanted to turn around and escape back to the bedroom.

"Hi, Nada." Adrian greeted her in the living room with a smile on his face.

"Uh...hey, first Adrian...Ed, it's been...long time no see." Natalie greeted him with wide eyes and stammered, leaning back slightly but stepping forward with one foot It seems very contradictory.

"Yeah, I haven't seen you for almost a week, and you look much better." Adrian still smiled.

It's nothing, Nada, it's nothing, relax, will he still eat you? Natalie cheered herself up inwardly. Besides, that day...it was normal for him to do that kind of thing, at best...the place shouldn't be there.

Feeling that her face was slightly hot, Natalie quickly stopped her thoughts, took a step forward and was about to say something to cover it up, but her eyes were immediately attracted by the thing on Adrian's shoulder. It was a small person, wearing a pink coat, curled up in Adrian's arms, with his head buried on his shoulders, his long golden-brown hair messed up, motionless.

"This is my friend's daughter." Seeing her like this, Adrian immediately explained, "I should have left her in the hotel, but the little guy and I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I have to follow her wherever I go." .Even if you are still sleepy, you still have to rely on me, and you don’t want to lie on the hotel bed.”

Having said that, he showed a look of grievance, and Natalie couldn't help laughing. The little girl in Adrian's arms suddenly raised her head, as if awakened by the laughter, but her eyes were sleepy, her face was round and fleshy, and she looked very cute. After looking around and finding nothing to pay attention to—maybe she couldn't find it at all—the little girl climbed on Adrian again and continued to sleep, and at the same time put her head against his neck for a while. , there was a murmuring sound in his mouth, Adrian could only roll his eyes and let her move around, seeing Natalie almost laughed out loud again, but fortunately he covered his mouth in time.

Unknowingly, her mood improved a lot.

"I don't think you have had breakfast yet, Ed, why don't you have something to eat together." At this moment, Shelly came out of the kitchen with a plate, followed by her husband Evner.

"Yes, Ed, breakfast is very important to people, let's have some together." Evner also said in greeting.

"Thank you, you are so kind." Adrian did not refuse, and sat at the dining table with the little guy in his arms.

"It's better to put her on the sofa, so it will be more convenient for you." Natalie, who sat on the chair, pointed to the little girl in Adrian's arms and said, she didn't realize that she was sitting next to him .

"I bet, when I put her on the sofa, she will immediately bounce up and hug me and scream," Adrian shook his head with a wry smile, "It seems that there is a radar in her body, as long as If I am within range, she will sense it."

"Why?" Shelly showed a curious look, "I mean why is she so clinging to you?"

"This... it's a long story..." Adrian sighed, stretched out his hand to tease the little girl who was sleeping in his arms, and the other party unconsciously opened his hand with a murmuring sound, and moved a little The body continues to sleep.

After chuckling, Adrian raised his head and saw that all three members of the family looked at him with questioning eyes. After thinking for a few minutes, he began to speak: "Her name is Emma, ​​Emma Watson, is... ..."

His speech was very simple and not very lyrical, but it still made the eyes of the two women widen.

"You are such a good person, Ed." Shelley said with admiration.

Although Natalie didn't say anything, the way she looked at Adrian finally changed a lot.

"May the Lord have mercy on this child." Evner also spoke at this time, revealing sincerity in his tone. Although his expression has always been calm, it doesn't mean that his feelings have no ups and downs.

"Okay, let's have breakfast. I'll rush this way when I come together. I'm already starving." Adrian smoothed the situation with a smile, "As for the little guy, don't worry about her, she will naturally eat it when she wakes up." Find something to eat."

After breakfast, Natalie bid farewell to her parents, and followed Adrian in the car to the crew. The reason why he came to her house early in the morning was to pick her up early to start filming. According to Adrian, it has been delayed for too long, and we must redouble our efforts to make up for it.

But Natalie always felt that something was wrong, although because of Emma's story, she was much less defensive about Adrian... Well, I can't say that I was defensive, after going through the bathroom incident, especially She was still peeping... In short, she had complicated feelings about him, kind, interesting, talkable, disgusting, seductive, etc., and so on, even she couldn't explain it clearly, and then think of him. Those erotic dreams made her even more uncomfortable.

If he hadn't brought a little girl with him this time, and there was such a story, maybe she, who had suppressed the initial discomfort after resting for a few days, would have another attack.

What exactly is Adrian trying to do? Even if he needs to rush to shoot, he doesn't need to come to her house, right? And it's still so early. Natalie thought dully. When she thought of her mother's mysterious smile before leaving, she felt that something was wrong. They seemed to be hiding something from her.

"Are you dumb?" A soft voice suddenly rang in her ears, and she turned her head to look at her, her big, round eyes were looking at her without blinking, and the focus of her eyes was sitting on her shoulders. In Adrian's arms, did he take a sip of a carton of milk, the corners of his mouth were stained a lot, like a tabby cat.

This little guy is naturally Emma who has been sleeping in Adrian's arms for a long time. She was always in a state of confusion at Natalie's house, as if she couldn't sleep enough, until she got in the car and left. Wake up after driving out of Long Island.

Even so, she still looked dizzy, but when Adrian carefully wiped her face with a wet tissue, she immediately woke up, then giggled and grabbed Adrian's hand, and started Mischievous. Occasionally, Adrian would show a ferocious look, telling her that if she didn't obediently let him wipe her, he would punish her severely, but this would only make the little guy more unscrupulous, like a grown man and a 3-year-old kid The scenes of the girls playing and fighting gave people a different kind of warmth.

"Ed, she still seems to be deaf." The little girl who bit her lip and waited for a long time without waiting for an answer looked up at Adrian in disappointment and said.

Natalie, who came back to her senses, stared at the little girl dumbfounded, looked at Adrian who was holding back her laughter, and said word by word: "Unfortunately, Emma, ​​I am neither dumb nor deaf."

"Then, why don't you talk?" Emma pursed her mouth, seeming very unhappy.

"You didn't give me a chance to talk at all." Natalie raised her eyebrows while crossing her arms and said, following her, she realized that she was wrong. Why are you so fussy about a little girl?

Emma couldn't answer, anyway, she was just a little guy who was only 3 years old, but she gave full play to her advantages, turned her head away, raised her chin, closed her eyes, and snorted lightly with her nose: "Laipi"

Natalie blinked her eyes in amazement, a feeling of annoyance came to her heart, but just when she was about to retort, Adrian suddenly laughed. The laughter seemed to be like pouring cold water on Natalie's head. She woke up quickly, then looked at Adrian and Emma strangely, and finally turned her head to look at the scenery outside the car window Keep silent.

What the hell is wrong with me? Why is there a feeling of being at a loss? Just because of... just because of that damn... thing? Natalie asked herself depressingly in her heart, but it was a pity that there were no answers to these questions. Looking back slightly, Adrian was thinking about the problem, while the little guy looked at her with interest while holding his face, wondering what the hell he was thinking.

Forget it, don't worry about it so much. Natalie rolled her eyes and looked out the window again. I don't care about the possible "conspiracy", anyway, let's talk about it when the time comes.

Soon, the car came to the outside of the studio. As soon as she got out of the car, Natalie was shocked again. There were quite a few reporters holding cameras around her. And as soon as he saw Adrian, he rushed over immediately.

"Mr. Adrian, are you dating Julia at all?"

"What do you think of Julia's statement?"

"What do you think of Julia, Mr. Adrian."

But soon a staff member came up to separate them, and Adrian also hugged Emma, ​​pressed her head in his arms, and strode inside while shouting loudly: "Okay, gentlemen, There are children here, please pay attention."

Natalie followed quickly amidst the clicking sounds one after another, and then walked into the apartment for filming.

"What happened?" Natalie asked after entering the elevator.

"Didn't you watch entertainment-related news during this time?" Adrian was slightly surprised.

"I have enough of my own affairs, I really don't have time to look at those." Natalie shrugged.

"That's great, you don't need to wait." Adrian laughed, but in Natalie's eyes, he felt a little underwhelmed. ()
