King of Hollywood

Ding dong ding dong, the doorbell rang, and Adrian, who was reading a book, immediately stood up with Emma in his arms, straightened his clothes and walked to the door, and opened it with a smile: "Hi, Kate."

Kate outside the door immediately opened her arms and was about to pounce on her. After walking two steps, she stopped again. She saw the little girl in Adrian's arms in confusion: "This is?"

"Oh, this is Emma." Adrian introduced, and then added: "My daughter."

"You...you...your daughter?!" Kate stammered and asked with her eyes wide open, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Why, do you think...it's abnormal for a 23-year-old man to have a daughter over 1 year old?" Adrian asked normally.

"No...I...you..." Poor Kate was still in shock and couldn't recover.

"Okay, I'm joking." Adrian laughed loudly, "Emma is not my daughter."

"Ed!" Knowing that she had been duped, Kate roared immediately, and threw her fists at the opponent like raindrops in anger, "How could you do this! How could you do this!"

Without hitting twice, a sharp cry sounded from Adrian's arms, and the little girl who was secretly looking at Kate suddenly screamed and waved her arms at her. Startled, Kate quickly stopped her hands and looked at the little girl in bewilderment.

"Calm down, Emma, ​​calm down, it's nothing, she's just joking with me, understand? Just kidding." Adrian quickly coaxed the little girl in his arms, sometimes patted and sometimes shook, Emma yelled and yelled It took a while to calm down, and after glaring at Kate angrily, she shrank into Adrian's arms and hugged him tightly.

"I...did I do something wrong?" Kate stood there awkwardly, looking timidly at Adrian and Emma in his arms.

"No, it's nothing, it's just...Emma is a little sensitive, don't worry." Adrian explained a little, "Well, I'm going to take her for a walk in a nearby park, let's go together, I'll give you some advice on the way Explain in detail."

After speaking, he turned his head and shouted inside: "Ms. Marson, we can go."

Although Kate still didn't understand, she didn't say much, and followed behind Adrian.

During the two hours or so of walking around the park, Adrian told the whole story, and Ms. Marson who knew something about it, Kate quickly let go of the little bit of grievance and bewilderment. Went to cloud nine, and then motherly wanted to comfort Emma who lost her parents.

It's a pity that the little girl didn't give her any face. Every time Kate wanted to get close to her, she would protest by yelling, and then waved her arms to open her up. Kate was so depressed that she couldn't even speak at the end, and Adrian didn't know how many times she laughed.

"I really don't understand. I just punched you a few times as a joke. Why does she hate me so much?" Kate leaned against the door and looked at Adrian who was taking care of Emma under the dimly lit bedside lamp, a little unwilling so asked. Even so, there was a deep affection in her eyes, probably because she felt that this scene was very warm.

Adrian made a shush gesture, then carefully opened the little girl's arms and got off the bed gently, turned off the light and took Kate outside: "Let's go out first, don't talk here, don't wake up the little guy gone."

The two came to the living room together, sat down and poured two glasses of water and looked at each other but suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Well... Since Ms. Marson was invited by Mr. Russell to take care of Emma, ​​why doesn't she live here." After thinking for a long time, Kate asked this question.

"It's just today, because... you're here." Adrian shrugged.

Kate was a little puzzled at first, but then she thought of something, and a weird smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. The two stared at each other for a long while, and finally both burst out laughing. Then Kate threw herself into Adrian's arms without any scruples, and hugged her lover without hindrance or isolation.

"Oh, this place finally belongs to me." Kate leaned her head on Adrian's chest and sighed, then she arched her head as if wanting to feel more of Adrian's taste

"Why, are you jealous of the little girl?" Adrian asked jokingly, holding the soft body in his arms.

"That's right, it's okay for that little guy to hate me, but it's a bit too much to occupy you all night." Kate said angrily, she looked no different from 1-year-old Emma in this way.

But Kate adjusted immediately, sighed and put her head on Adrian's shoulder, closed her eyes and whispered in his ear, "I'm sorry, Ed."

"Sorry? Why?" Adrian asked in surprise.

"Just this afternoon, I was still angry because you didn't call me." Kate murmured in a low voice, she leaned up slightly and stared into Adrian's eyes as if she wanted to say something, but in the end there was nothing speak out.

"Fool, don't apologize to me," Adrian stroked her cheek affectionately, "This shows that my position in your heart is very important. If you want to say an apology, it should be me who apologizes to you. I forgot to call you."

"I can understand, after all, such a big thing happened." Kate smiled slightly.

"No, no, no, I'm serious, Kate," Adrian held her face in his hands, "I had countless opportunities to call you, and I have been using the videophone and the Los Angeles side for the past two days. Contact, remote control of the post-production of the new movie, but I never thought that there was someone waiting for me in London. If Mrs. Maulson’s words reminded me today, I don’t know when I will remember it.”

He leaned against her forehead and sighed softly: "So, I should be the one who said I'm sorry. In this kind of thing, a man can't and shouldn't let a woman say sorry."

Kate listened to him quietly, and then blocked Adrian's mouth in the next second. From the very beginning, the two kissed passionately. After all, they hadn't seen each other for more than two months. The desire rising from the bottom of their hearts made each other's hands move.

Soon, Kate, who was straddling Adrian, felt the reaction of the other party. She raised her head and looked at her lover half-closed while panting. She reached out to untie his belt and then began to explore inside.

"Sometimes... I find it really hard to satisfy you..." Kate breathed heavily.

"Really?" Adrian said with a smile, feeling Kate's fingers, and his hands were also moving up and down her exquisite body, "It's okay, you still have hands, a mouth, and..."

"What are you doing!" Kate suddenly exclaimed, because Adrian's hand slid down her buttocks and into her groin. Although she was still wearing trousers, the feeling still made her feel at a loss.

"Is there any problem?" Adrian asked with a smile, sliding his hand further down.

"No... there... no..." Kate gritted her teeth and said, "Otherwise... I won't be polite!"

As she spoke, she squeezed her hand heavily.

"Ha... You really... It seems that we both have something in each other's hands. Do you want to make a deal? Miss Beckinsale."

"Of course...how are you going to trade, Mr. Cowell?"

"Oh, it's very simple, you will know soon..."

Just when the passion between the two was about to erupt, the sound of crying suddenly came down from upstairs, like a scoop of cold water instantly extinguishing Adrian's lust.

"Damn it, it's time." With a wry smile, he quickly asked Kate to get up, and then quickly straightened his clothes.

As soon as it was done, the shaky figure of the sobbing little girl appeared at the stairs, and Adrian had no choice but to step forward and hug her to comfort her. After several minutes like this, Emma finally stopped crying, then he picked up the little girl and shrugged with a wry smile on Kate's face, and went straight upstairs.

This kind of weird life continued, but there was an extra Kate by Adrian's side. Russell not only didn't say anything but welcomed it after knowing it. With the passage of time and Adrian's cooperation, Emma's situation is indeed getting better day by day. Not only the expression on her face has become richer, but also the number of times she speaks has increased a lot. Mrs. Sen, at least once in a while, let Marson hug her.

However, Kate was not among them. Once she wanted to approach her to please her, the little girl would show a vigilant look, and then shrink into Adrian's arms. What makes Kate even more depressed is that whenever she gets close to Adrian, the little girl will always try to squeeze in and hang on Adrian like a koala, and then stare at him with a "biting" gaze. Looking at her, as if announcing: This is my thing, don't try to take it away!

"I don't even know what to do." Kate complained to Adrian more than once.

"If you think about it, it will be fine." Adrian always comforted her like this.

Now that the doctor said that the therapy was working, Emma would recover sooner or later, and in fact she did well at the funeral. The Watsons were buried at the end of June, on a rainy day - never count on fine weather in London - and Adrian didn't want to worry about why the funeral was delayed until now, he just sat with Emma in his arms. In the front row, listen to the priest's prayer, and then pay tribute to the dead.

Emma remained solemn the whole time, a little dazed but did not cry. However, Adrian clearly remembered how the little girl cried until she was in the dark when he took her to see her parents' remains a few days before the burial. When she slept with her that night, she held on to her pajamas tightly, refusing to let go no matter how soundly she slept.

"These negative emotions that suddenly accumulate, because children are too young to adjust themselves, so they can only pierce a hole in the rubber tube and wait for the water to flow out slowly, but it is also good to let go suddenly for a vent occasionally, so that Mutual adjustment can make the child get better in the shortest time." Said Dr. Xiao En, who suggested that Emma say goodbye to the parents' remains in private.

You'll be fine, Emma, ​​and you'll have a great future, I promise.
