Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 549 Close Protection and Premiere

"No, no, dad, please, it won't be a problem with Bucket and Wilder by your side, they've always done a great job, haven't they?" Angela walked back and forth anxiously in front of the window with her mobile phone , "If you're worried, I can hire some more bodyguards, like...how about retired marines?"

She smiled wryly and reached out and tapped on her head: "Okay, I'm joking, but... I don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of FBI, Dad, I feel more like being monitored and controlled." Isn't it protected... Grandpa? Oh, no, this...I know...but...I didn't frown!"

After yelling a little frantically, Angela realized her gaffe, and cleared her throat quickly: "Sorry, Dad, I'm a little excited... Thank you, but... ok ok, let's do it like this... that's right , how long are they going to 'protect' me like this? A year or even a year and a half?! God, that's too long! Daddy, can you... of course I know it's not a movie... well, it's up to you It's up to you... change, change! That's it! Thank you, Dad!"

Angela, who slammed the phone cover shut hard, felt her chest heave several times before she calmed down. She turned her head and said to Sparrow who was sitting on the single sofa in an annoyed and troublesome tone: "That's great, Jack. , nice gift."

"You have to understand, it's necessary, Angie." Sparrow shrugged and spread his hands.

"Of course, of course I understand, for my own safety. But... From now on, there will be two more inexplicable people around me, not only will follow every day, but one of them will live in the same room with me when necessary!" Angela Bored and chattering, "You need to report in advance when you go to various gathering places, so that they can arrange manpower. All cars must be replaced with bulletproof ones, and you can't drive a convertible sports car..."

"But you hardly drive a convertible sports car." Sparrow reminded kindly.

"But at least I have the right to choose!" Angela put her hands on her hips, her brows bristling, "They might as well make me wear body armor wherever I go, oh, the best type of body armor for bomb disposal! The whole person is wrapped in it, and no one can take it away!"

Sparrow had no choice but to put down the teacup that had just been brought to his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, then made an apologetic gesture and quickly slipped out.Angela didn't stop her, she knew that complaining to Sparrow was useless, no matter what, some things couldn't be changed.But she still couldn't help but want to nag a few words about it.

I hate the FBI!After the room was quiet, Angela murmured in her heart, and she couldn't explain why she hated it.Angela knew that the real federal agents were completely different from the ones in the movies, but she was still somewhat resistant to being protected by the other party, maybe because she didn't like politics?

Of course, Angela may be more worried that they will bug her phone, read her letters at will, and so on.As I said to my father before, there is a feeling of being watched, even if the other party is doing it in the name of protection.Another point is that Angela has her own secrets. Although the bodyguards may already know something more or less, they are all obliged to keep it secret for the employer, and these are written in the contract.But these FBI agents are hard to say, of course, they will definitely swear that they will keep secret and respect personal privacy, but God knows if they will secretly release some gossip on the Internet after ten days and a half months?Well, even if they won't do this, but there is no non-disclosure agreement that can bind them, maybe they will inadvertently leak the word, and then spread it to ten or ten...

Angela suddenly felt that she was thinking too much. Even if this kind of situation could happen, it should only happen after the protection of her was over. Besides... And she couldn't refuse, couldn't she?

What idiotic plan came up with by some idiot terrorist?Kidnapping a few celebrities can destroy a country's culture?The girl couldn't help cursing in her stomach.There was a sudden movement in her heart, as if something was about to run out from a corner that she hadn't noticed, but when she wanted to grab it and pull it in front of her to see clearly, it disappeared immediately.

what happened?Angela rubbed her temples and wanted to continue searching in her mind, but she couldn't find it.That's weird, why is there such a strong feeling of forgetting something?And... this matter seems serious?The girl thought hard.

This feeling is not unfamiliar to Angela, and similar situations have occurred before, but it has never been as strong as it is today.

According to her experience, there is only one possibility that she may have forgotten something important that she "used to" remember.

However, when I encountered such a situation before, I could always recall it after thinking about it, but now no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any clues.Is it because I'm too old?Angela frowned and tapped her head, then laughed again.

This is normal, although the memory will not disappear but it will get harder to remember as time goes on.Angela said comfortingly in her heart.Like when she finally recalled Will Smith's "Happiness Comes Knocking" with his son Jaden Smith, she could only remember some classic scenes.

If you want to recall them all, you have to happen to encounter a familiar scene or something.Fortunately, she collected many useful things in the "treasure box" early on, and recorded them in half Chinese and half English, as well as pictures that she only understood.It's just... what is it that I can't remember?Angela fell into deep thought again.

"Anji, it's time to go. You still have to go to the old man's house for dinner." Just then Annie suddenly broke in, and the girl woke up from her contemplation. She couldn't help but waved her hand over her head.

"What's wrong?" Annie asked a little strangely.

"Well...it's nothing, it's always..." Angela frowned and shrugged: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, I will always remember it—it's time to go, the two federal agents are still there, right?" ?”

"Yes, in the living room, Mr. Sparrow is accompanying them." Annie nodded, and then asked worriedly, "Did something happen?"

"This..." Angela hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth, "They said that someone might kidnap me, so they need to protect me closely, and more people should be arranged for attending large occasions."

"Kidnapping?!" Annie was taken aback, and suddenly grabbed Angela's arm, "Someone is going to kidnap you?!"

"Don't worry, Anne, don't worry," Angela repeatedly comforted, "I'll be fine, they said they would provide close protection for me 24 hours a day, and besides, Bucket and Wilder are by my side, they are professional bodyguards. "

Just talking about kidnapping makes me so nervous, but if I talk about terrorists, you won't scream, right?The girl couldn't help chuckling in her heart.But Annie didn't look relieved at all: "However, no matter how tight the defense is, there will be loopholes."

"I said, don't worry, those guys are not James Bond." Seeing her anxious expression, Angela felt a surge of warmth in her heart, she held Annie's face and said seriously: "Actually, I am more I'm worried about you, if someone breaks into the villa while I'm away, you will be in danger, so I will arrange some security guards to come over as soon as possible. You must take care of yourself and Lily, understand? Don't make me worry."

Perhaps her composure infected Annie, and Annie finally calmed down: "Okay, I see."

"That's it, I have to go out." Angela left the room after kissing her lightly on the forehead.

Back in New York, Angela had dinner with her grandparents as usual.Of course, after the meal, Angela had to discuss the matter of personal protection with her grandpa. Unfortunately, the always talkative grandpa would not budge on this matter. Not only did she cancel the matter of protection, she almost had to arrange for that Mavis Detectives were on hand at all times—if Angela was in the bathroom, Ms. Mavis had to sit outside.

Angela would never agree to this request anyway. Thinking about the female detective who replaced Sparrow sitting next to her, it was enough to be expressionless along the way. madly.Therefore, Angela could only obediently accept the arrangement of her family in the end.

"You have to understand, Chris, everyone cares about you." When she left the villa, grandma said to her, "No one wants you to have an accident. Just because you are not afraid does not mean that your family is not afraid."

"Okay, grandma," Angela said in a low voice, hugging grandma lightly, "I don't complain any more."

Since it can't be changed, then accept it, Angela, who didn't live at her grandfather's house, thought so after returning to the hotel.To be honest, she herself was a little surprised. Ever since she was told that she might be kidnapped, she had never been afraid.There was no feeling of worry at all, which was really strange.

When did my nerves become so rough?Angela couldn't understand it, or watched the movie and her brain burned out?What's more interesting is that not only do you not worry vaguely, but you can also feel a little bit of excitement that is not obvious? !

Looks like my brain is literally burning out.This was Angela's last thought before falling asleep.

The premiere on the second day has everything that should be available, although because the summer vacation time is reserved for such a big investment as "The Mummy 2", a small investment of about 2000 million like "Legally Blonde" can only be released at this time, But Pixar didn't skimp on that promotional fee.Who let the screenwriter and producer bear the name of Miss Genius, and the heroine is her closest "friend".

Ignoring the shouts of "Miss Angela", "Miss Angela" and the sound of snapping pictures behind, Angela and Jessica walked into the theater hand in hand.

"Isn't that good?" Jessica glanced at the entrance of the theater, which was already far away, "You don't answer any questions, and you hold my hand so affectionately, so you don't worry about what will be written in tomorrow's newspaper ?”

Even so, there was a hint of slyness in the brown eyes.Angela didn't say anything, but just shrugged her shoulders: "Who said I didn't answer the question, although the answer was a bit vague, but I did answer after all, didn't I? As for this—"

She held Jessica's hand and raised it: "Even without this, the reporter would not be merciful."

At least, there is one person who remains the same.Seeing Jessica's flowery smile, Angela thought silently.

"We have four groups of people in four corners, please stay within their field of vision." Meivis, who was wearing a black thin-shouldered dress, came over and said to Angela at this moment.

It's just the premiere, is it necessary?Angela really wanted to ask this question, but the stern-faced Meivis immediately swallowed the words that came to her lips.This woman is too egotistical. Take this outfit as an example. If Angela hadn't followed her and insisted on participating in the premiere, she would have come here simply wearing a women's suit.

In addition to not matching with her own outfit, it would be unsightly to walk together, the more important reason is that - what Angela wants most is to wear women's suits to attend such occasions.It's a pity that due to many reasons, she had to give up this idea and wear a strapless dress instead.In this case, of course, you cannot allow another person to dangle in front of you in a women's suit.

It's just that Meivis is not easy to persuade. If it wasn't for what she was wearing and the mission, she wouldn't change a little thing even if Angela broke her lips!so……

"Okay, I see." Angela nodded without saying a word.Although she had only been in contact with her for a little over a day, she didn't like this woman very much.To be honest, if it wasn't for maintaining her demeanor, Angela really wanted to ask: How much do I owe you, miss?

"Your new bodyguard? She doesn't seem very friendly." Jessica asked in a low voice, looking at Meivis who stepped aside and kept a certain distance from Angela.

"Hmm...well." Angela replied after thinking about it.

She wasn't sure whether to tell Jessica about the kidnapping. It was one thing not to want her to worry, but it was also difficult—should I tell Kate if she told Jessie?Shall I tell Nat?If they appeared in front of me at the same time because of worry, what should I say and do?

"Why do you need so many bodyguards? And from what she said just now, there seem to be many more?" Jessica continued to ask.

"Well, those are temporary..." Angela was thinking, when her hands tightened suddenly, it turned out that Jessica suddenly squeezed hard.She bit her lip and looked at herself, a complex voice flashed in her eyes, and after a long while, she whispered: "What's the matter... can't you tell me?"

Angela's heart trembled slightly. Although she knew that Jesse had no other intentions, it sounded different to her.

"May I tell you later?" Angela said.

Angela and Jessica separated after walking through the corridor to the theater. Before the movie started, there was still a long chatter or something, which was also a part of communication.

There were many people attending the premiere, including columnists from various magazines, film critics, and well-connected actors and directors in the entertainment industry.There are some that Angela is familiar with and some that are not very familiar.However, unfamiliarity is not necessarily a bad thing, and familiarity is not necessarily a good thing.

"It makes me jealous to see you flirting with each other," Liv whispered in Angela's ear, and before she rolled her eyes, she shook her fingers secretly, "Don't worry, I know, there's still more than a month left .”

Angela sighed. Facing the original "culprit", she really didn't know what to say, so she could only talk about his body: "Sorry, please let me go, I have to let them see me."

"They? Who?" Liv looked around, but unfortunately, even though she saw some people wearing earphones patrolling around, she still didn't think too much about it, and finally looked at Angela with reproach: "Don't even think about distracting yourself. topic."

Angela smiled wryly, took a long breath and spread her hands: "I still don't understand why you just..."

"Stalking you?" Liv raised her eyebrows, "Because I want to!"

She raised the corner of her mouth with a little pride: "I like you, Angie, that's all. I just want to fight for it once. If I like someone and dare not even fight for it, then what's the use?"

"What if I fell in love with three people at the same time?" Angela asked mysteriously.

Fortunately, because Liv kept her voice low, she didn't hear: "What?"

"No, it's nothing." Angela quickly shook her head, "Okay, the movie is about to start, I have to go to my place. There is still one month, right?"

"I can count, dear." Liv waved her hands carelessly, watching Angela walk to the front row and sit with Jessica before she frowned slightly involuntarily.

The plot of "Legal Blonde" is relatively simple, but the director handled it quite well, and it looks very smooth and comfortable.Coupled with quite interesting dialogues and a plot with constant twists and turns, it is still quite brilliant as a commercial film.Jessica's interpretation is also very good. Although it is still unsatisfactory in some places, it captures the characteristics of the heroine that Angela has readjusted in the script, and Angela has set up different roles for her. There are few proprietary details and small movements that make people nod and praise while laughing.

"Look, everyone is affirming your acting skills." After the warm applause in the theater after the subtitles, Angela whispered encouragement in Jessica's ear.

"It's not just my acting skills, there are many more, such as the director's scheduling or other people's performances, and your story." Although Jessica said so, the corners of her mouth have already betrayed her inner activities.

"Don't underestimate yourself. No matter how good the story is, without the interpretation of the director and actors, it's just a story on paper." Angela said and held Jessica's hand. I won’t talk about it, but there are indeed movies that rely entirely on one actor, such as the "Boys Don’t Cry" that made Hilary Swank the best actress. Although my Jesse can’t reach that This level does not prevent her from working hard in that direction, does it?"

"Of course!" The corners of Jessica's mouth became even wider, and her bright smile became more and more charming.

Angela couldn't help but raised the corners of her mouth, and said in a low voice, "Come to my room tonight?"
