Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 708 A beautiful chapter of gratitude?

Every year on Thanksgiving Angela gathers with her family to enjoy a delicious turkey prepared in countless ways, and today is no exception.However, this year, apart from the parents, younger siblings, uncles, aunts and their precious twins were also invited.Of course, the naughty kid Lulu is also among them.

"I'm not a naughty brat! Cecilia and Victor are!" Lulu pointed at her aunt's two children and said very dissatisfied, and then she also burned the flames of war on Ike and Willie: "Even if it is a kid in a broad sense, it can only include Clark and Elizabeth. Which 15-year-old girl is still called a kid!"

"I just said something along the way... don't you need to be so exaggerated?" Angela, whose mouth was twitching because of her performance, finally said this. Unfortunately, the other party didn't mean to let her go. With a wave of her little hand, she continued to speak righteously. Go on: "Don't be so exaggerated? Do you know how terrible this is? Your words that you think are harmless pierced my chest like a sharp knife, piercing my heart full of holes!"

She stared closely at Angela's expression of grief and indignation with her pursed lips. The heartbroken look made Angela's forehead jump. With this acting skill, Lulu could definitely win an Oscar for acting.

Fortunately, Willy ran over in time to help her sister out: "Sister, let's go over there and ignore this idiot."

"That's right, ignore this idiot." Angela laughed heartily a few times, ignoring Lulu's black face and running away with her sister.

But Lulu will not let it go like this. Although she will be almost 15 years old soon, once she becomes mischievous, she is not much worse than her uncle's two children.Moreover, she has an unusual relationship with Angela, and she is unscrupulous in making pranks, slapping her buttocks and secretly touching her inner thighs, or blatantly attacking her chest, which can be regarded as sexual harassment in a sense.

Not only that, Lulu also brought in two accomplices, the two little fellows of my uncle who didn't understand anything were coaxed to stand on Lulu's side and went crazy.Fortunately, Angela also has younger siblings to help. Ike may be a little confused, but Willie guessed something, and immediately pulled her younger brother to spare no effort to protect her sister.

The two groups of people made a fuss at home for a while, but unfortunately, neither the parents nor the uncle and aunt cared about it, and sometimes they even watched the fun from the sidelines, so Angela didn't bother to care about them.Anyway, she has other plans for the next day, so it's no big deal to let Lulu and the others make a fuss.

Angela has always spent Thanksgiving with her family every year. In addition to enjoying a turkey dinner together, she will go out with her parents, younger siblings in the following days, such as going horseback riding at the horse farm or seeing the beaches in the south for vacation.But this year Angela doesn't plan to do it again, she has her own arrangements.

"I have something I want to do, Dad, you can't let me stay by your side and never leave, can you?" Angela said to her father in the study. should.

"Can't we stay for a few more days? If we leave after today, we will be very sad." The father said leisurely while holding the black tea, and there was no sadness on his smiling face.

"I've already arranged it, Dad, do you want me to miss the appointment?" Angela spread her hands angrily.

"Really, can't we choose another time, this is Thanksgiving." Father said with some complaints.

"No time, Dad!" Angela showed her white teeth, "You know, I'm busy with my own concert, and then I have a premiere to attend, followed by Christmas and New Years—or do you agree that I will be alone? Have you celebrated these two festivals?"

"Chris, you have to know..." The father wanted to say something, but the daughter suddenly rushed to him and said with a sneer, "Don't forget, dear dad, you are still in my hands! If you don't want mom If you know something..."

Although the drawn-out voice did not say what was behind her, the flickering eyes had clearly told her father that she really might do this!

Jared coughed a few times, raised his head angrily, and looked at his daughter for a while before asking helplessly, "Okay, but at least let me know what you're going to do?"

"It's a party. It took me a lot of effort to persuade them to attend this party. I don't want to mess it up." Angela shrugged.

"A party?" Father raised his eyebrows. "They? You mean your... those lovers?"

Even though she knew that her father must be aware of this, Angela's face turned red, and she nodded helplessly after pursing her lips: "Yes, it's them, I think it might be better for them to attend the party together."

"Are you going to show them your cards and tell them that you are dating them at the same time?" the father asked with a smile.

"No, the seven of them already knew about each other's existence, I actually just wanted to..."

"Wait, seven?!" The choked father coughed several times and looked at his daughter with surprised eyes.

"You don't know?" Angela replied with the same surprise, "Didn't I tell you?"

"This is really..." Father stared at Angela with a wry smile and rubbed his head, "What should I say?"

"Okay, Dad, although I'm now... dating 7 people at the same time, and they also acquiesce in each other's existence, but after two years, I will have to make a choice among them." Angela said with a wry smile, It's really hard to say this.

"I really don't know what your mother's face will look like when she finds out," the father twitched his lips, "God, seven people."

"Maybe she'll say it's hereditary?" Angela couldn't help but snorted softly.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, okay?" Father immediately raised his hand, "That's it, I don't agree, otherwise God knows what methods you will use to threaten me."

"It's already like this, so nothing will happen." Angela waved her hand, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'll go with Willy and the others now, so that they don't have to nag again."

The moment the door was closed, Angela could still see her father pinching the bridge of his nose with a wry smile. She stuck out her tongue secretly and didn't take it to heart. It wasn't a bad thing to take this opportunity to tell her parents about it.As for the reaction of the parents, especially the mother... Anyway, I will go back tomorrow and don't care.

Angela took a lot of effort to get the seven of them to come home for Thanksgiving this time, just as Natalie said—I have never heard that Thanksgiving is not spent with the family.Others, such as Kate, also said that everyone only got together in Hawaii a few months ago, isn't it a bit too frequent to get together now?

But Angela still tried her best to pull them over, coquettish, threatening, and losing her temper. She tried all kinds of tricks.Jessica also helped to say a lot of good things, and she even agreed without saying anything after receiving the call.

"Jessie has completely fallen for Angie." Avril Lavigne said this when everyone was chatting in the living room. She hesitated for a while after receiving the invitation, and finally Jessica called to help persuade her before agreeing.

"I just think it's good for everyone to gather together during the festival. Couldn't it be okay to just say a few words?" Jessica looked at Avril with some displeasure, and snorted softly with her nose.

"Don't worry about it, Jesse, what Weiwei actually wanted to say is that we must be careful, and the alliance reached before cannot be split because of this." Scarlett came out to smooth things over, and Kayla also unexpectedly and simply echoed: " That's right."

Clearly, Jessica is still the one who gets along with everyone the best.

"Alliance? What alliance?" Lili, who was helping with the snacks, just heard this sentence and raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"You want to know?" Avril Lavigne blinked her eyes playfully, taking the opportunity to shift her target.

"No need, you can figure out what your alliance is with your knees, but it's a pity that it's not strong at all, and there are huge cracks from the beginning." Alizee said in a flat tone, her expressionless appearance made people feel sullen a feeling of.

"Sounds like it's true." Keira pouted disapprovingly.

Alizee glanced at her, then shrugged: "To be honest, I suddenly wondered if I could also press someone against the wall and fiddle with it arbitrarily. I think that kind of feeling must be very unusual."

As soon as these words were said, the faces of several people in the living room suddenly changed subtly, even Kate, Liv and Natalie who had been talking and ignoring this side just now were the same.Jessica lowered her head but raised the corners of her mouth; Avril smacked her mouth and wanted to speak but said nothing; Scarlett rubbed her nose and her eyes kept cruising; Keira scanned everyone with vigilant eyes. Sweeping back and forth; Liv seemed to remember something and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh; Kate tapped her head angrily; only Natalie's face turned dark.

"Are you sure you want to try it?" Annie's voice sounded at this moment, and she appeared behind Alizee with a tea set.

"Just talking, you won't take it seriously." Alizee turned her head.

"That's hard to say." Although Annie said this, the smile on her face obviously concealed a bit of embarrassment.

Alizee also noticed it naturally, snorted softly and stopped talking.Interrupted by Annie, several other people also recovered and chatted again, but they all seemed a little absent-minded.

"Hey, do you want to know the result?" Angela's voice came from the stairs at this moment, and appeared in front of everyone with excitement a few seconds later.

"If you want to say something, just say it." Natalie, who was feeling uncomfortable, said angrily.

Angela blinked in astonishment, but then she waved the pages of paper in her hand: "I have to say, among the lyrics written by everyone, Vivi's is the best. Kate's is more like fourteen Jessie's poetry is too straightforward, Manny's is uncharacteristic, Keira's is a bit jerky and difficult to understand, Nat's is good but it's more suitable for Rap, as for Liv...Frankly speaking, I really don't know what she wrote What is it?"

"How can you say that!" Liv suddenly pouted her lips in displeasure, looking sexy and cute.

"To be honest." Angela spread her hands helplessly.

"It's normal, Liv. After all, we are not like Vivi, who specializes in making music." Jessica comforted Liv.

"Actually, your lyrics have given me a lot of inspiration. There is always a line of lyrics in so many new songs that come from your hands." Angela also said quickly, waving the paper as if to ask for credit, and Kate and the others couldn't help but chuckle.

"Why don't you ask Lindsay for lyrics?" Jessica suddenly asked, "I heard that she is also writing lyrics for her own single, if she is here today, you should have more choices, right? "

"Okay, forget about her," Angela waved her hand, "Today is our party and has nothing to do with anyone else."

In fact, Lindsay wanted to come too, but Angela told her: This is their party, since you don't participate in the competition, what are you doing here?It is undeniable that she is revenge for Lindsay's big mouth, although she knows that some things will be noticed as long as she goes to bed.Although Lindsay hated it, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Then—can you invite another person." Avril suddenly said in a drawn out voice, with a strange look on her face.

"Who?" Keira, the most sensitive, immediately sensed the meaning.

"Of course it's her new suitor." Avril Lavigne said with a smirk.

"Oh?!" Everyone immediately looked at Angela with meaningful eyes.

"Hey hey hey, what is a new suitor!" Angela yelled immediately after being horrified by these gazes.

"Isn't it?" Avril Lavigne's white teeth flashed, "You told me yourself that if Taylor pestered me again, you would get her to bed. Besides, those love letters she gave you , didn't you accept it all?"

Hearing these words, everyone's eyes suddenly became more playful.

"First of all, what I said was just a joke! Secondly, I threw away those love letters without even reading them. I just accepted them because I didn't want to be entangled with her!" Angela said viciously, blushing for a while. of.

Just thinking about Taylor Swift made her very uneasy.After she triumphantly announced Avril Lavigne's ownership to Taylor that day, the girl was stunned for a few minutes, and first said angrily that "everything is not yet settled", but after Avril Lavigne said that she was indeed with Angela, she immediately changed With a sad face, he said "how could you do this".

After seeing that none of this would work, the girl turned her eyes and suddenly grabbed Angela's hand: "Then can I pursue you?"

Both Angela and Avril were dumbfounded by this sudden trick, and Taylor followed up and said seriously: "Since Vivi doesn't love me anymore, then I just want to pursue you."

"Wait, I wonder if you're confused, I said..." Angela wanted to remind her, but before she finished speaking, Taylor suddenly leaned over and touched her lips, and said "That's it" They ran out giggling, and Angela and Avril sat in the lounge for a long time.

From then on, Angela would receive love letters from Taylor every now and then, or hand them to her face to face or send them to her home, and every time she handed her love letters face to face, Taylor would always look at her with implied eyes, and then Quickly leave before she can speak.When there are many people, she will make some intimate gestures. If Avril Lavigne is there, she will look at each other with provocative eyes.All of this made Angela very dizzy.

"Obviously, she's just playing, a 16-year-old girl who is curious about same-sex relationships and wants to try it out." Angela waved her hand vigorously to express her anger.

"Oh." Everyone made a clear voice in unison, but unfortunately, there was obvious disbelief on their faces. As for Avril Lavigne, who was just a slayer, she even had a smirk on her face, which made Angela grit her teeth.

"Okay, let's talk about something else, or... shall we go out to play tennis and watch a movie?" Jessica couldn't hold back in the end, and came out again to smooth things over.

"That's right, I just refurbished my private theater, and now I can watch film, digital, and 3D. Why don't we reminisce about our respective representative works?" Angela hurriedly said according to the topic, and at the same time gave Jessica gave Jessica a grateful look, Jessica didn't speak but showed a gentle smile.

Although the others were not reconciled, Jessica had no choice but to keep silent after saying this. Her gentle and gentle personality made her the most popular among several people.

The little turmoil calmed down temporarily, and the seven of them took Alizee and Anne to the garden for a while, and then went to the private theater to watch a movie.As Angela said, the renovated private theater can play film, digital, and 7D——Angela originally wanted to renovate it into an IMAX theater, but after thinking about it, it’s better to wait for Cameron’s new movie to come out. , when the time comes to renovate in one step or simply build another IMAX3D theater.

Although there are not many 3D movies, there are quite a few that can be watched, not to mention that there are many movies in Angela's screening room.But after picking and choosing, they unanimously decided to watch last year's "The End of Happiness".

"I just want to see your acting skills." Natalie said so.

"I haven't watched it before, but now I want to make up for it." Kate said.

"Me too." Kayla echoed Kate.

"I want to watch it again, it's interesting to watch you play with men." This is Liv's answer.

"Although Angie, who has a mature temperament, can look at it any way she wants in the future, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal to think about it in advance." Scarlett blinked narrowly.

"Yes, that's right, just look at how she seduces men, and you know how she seduces women." Avril obviously added fuel to the fire.

"I...everyone wants to watch it, so..." Jessica replied weakly.

Come on, Jessie, it doesn't matter if you object, can't you see what they're thinking?Even though she was thinking about it in her heart, and even though she looked at Jessica and everyone else with extremely resentful eyes, Angela still honestly asked the screening room to show the movie.
