Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 197



Chapter 197

In one and a half months, Jessica will be 14 years old. According to her mother, she will become a big girl. The so-called big girl is to do more things that she wants to do, and she can also have more little secrets , but the most important thing is that you can go shopping and date with boys!

Moreover, even the father who has always been strict began to let go. Of course, some requirements have not been relaxed. You can do what you want, but you must be sure that it is right; Get home on time!

To be honest, there are many interesting boys in the acting school. Jessica has accepted invitations from some boys before, but she always feels that such dates are too boring. Every date takes less than half an hour and she wants to go home. It's only an hour long.She actually knew why, and the fact that she was dating guys was just trying to get away with it, but it didn't seem like it was going to work.

beep!The car horn sounded outside, Jessica stuck in front of the window, waved her arms to the girl outside who was waving behind the window, then turned around and picked up the gift bag and ran to the door: "Mom, I'm going gone."

"Okay, dear, come back early, if you want to spend the night at Angie's house, remember to call home." Mom poked her head out of the kitchen and called.

"Got it, Mom." Jessica said goodbye to her mother, then opened the door and ran out to the side of the car, where the girl inside had already opened the door for her.Hi Lindsay, how are you? Jessica happily touched the other person's face, and then greeted the driver: "Hello, Ryan Stein. "

"Hello, Jessica, please get in the car and sit down. I think we'd better go back as soon as possible. Angela should be in a hurry." Pu Guanshui looked in the rearview mirror and didn't start the car until the girl got in the car and sat down. Move forward.

"Wow. Jessie, you look so pretty, just off a date?" Lindsay giggled as she looked at Jessica, who was wearing a red bodice with floral tops and a black coat trimmed with white , and then a knee-length white skirt.With white stockings, small black and white leather shoes, and big wavy brown hair, it's really a standard lady's dress, and it looks beautiful and cute.

"When you go to Angie's house, you have to dress formally. Don't you want to wear pajamas?" Jessica shrugged.

"It's not the first time I go, Angie won't care. She will welcome you even if you go in pajamas!" Lindsay said, raising her exposed legs high, "Look, I I didn't dress up much."

Lindsay is plainly dressed.A beige long-sleeved t-shirt is covered with a dark brown vest, followed by denim shorts that reach above the knee, plus blue and white sneakers. Although simple, it well reflects the cuteness and playfulness of the little girl.

"Yeah. Then maybe ask Ryan to drive back. Then I'll find you a pajamas. How about you wear it to Angie's birthday party?" Jessica folded her arms and looked at the little one.

"Well... by the way. What birthday present did you prepare?" Seeing that the situation was not going well, Lindsay immediately changed the subject.Jessica didn't chase after her, either.Yang raised the bag in his hand: "You can guess, anyway, you know what Angie likes."

"Come on, Jesse." Lindsay rolled her eyes helplessly, "Yes, I know Angie likes the things we make ourselves. But I'm not good at guessing riddles, so don't test me like this."

"Well, my gift is homemade chocolate cake." Jessica took out the beautifully packaged box.It's as big as two palms. "Although it's a little small, I finished it by myself from beginning to end."

"This is awesome, maybe I should learn how to cook too." Lindsay said enviously.Her gift was still a bracelet, just paired with the one from last year.

"It's not important, my dear. The important thing is that we did it with our hands and our hearts!" Jessica smiled slightly.

It took about half an hour. The car drove up to Beverly Hills and came outside the villa. After the gate opened, the two girls who were chatting happily noticed something unusual. There were many cars parked in the parking lot. Loud music was faintly coming from the garden behind the villa, and the servants were constantly walking between the house and the garden. It seemed very lively, not like a small party.

The car stopped in front of the villa, and Jessica and Lindsay got out of the car together. A few seconds later, Angela ran out of the house: "Hi, welcome to my house, dear friends!"

"Happy birthday, Angie!" Lindsay rushed up first, and she jumped up with both feet in the air and wrapped her arms around the opponent's neck. The huge momentum made Angela, who was hugging her, retreat several steps: "God, You are so enthusiastic."

Jessica hesitated for a while, and then stepped forward to give her a hug, but she still resisted slightly.

"Jessie, between us..." Angela, who was holding her, looked at her with puzzled eyes, but Jessica didn't want to start a discussion, so she calmly took out the box and handed it to her: "Happy birthday , Angie."

"Thank you, can I open it now?" Angela didn't ask, but just shook the box in her hand.

"Oh, of course, I don't mind." Jessica said with a smile.

The box was opened, and an exquisite brown cake appeared in front of my eyes. It was very beautifully made. It could be seen that the maker was very careful, and even the handwriting on it was very elegant. The only regret is that the characters below are happy birthday The image is a little horrible.

"I did my best to draw, but you know..." Jessica gestured to explain.

"It's okay, Jesse, even if I paint it with buttercream, it won't be better than that. I think this should be the most delicious cake." Angela said and looked around, there was basically nothing else around Pu Guanshui, who had just parked his car and came over, naturally turned his back to her after meeting her eyes.

Then the girl pulled off a small piece with her hand without any image at all, threw it into her mouth, chewed it a few times and exclaimed intoxicated: "It's really good, this is indeed the most delicious cake I've ever eaten!"

The sneaky and exaggerated expressions made both Jessica and Lindsay laugh out loud. Pu Guanshui, who heard the laughter, glanced back furtively, and then turned his head away again.

"Okay, wait until I put the cake in the kitchen, and then go to the garden behind, um... everyone is there." Said here.Angela showed a helpless wry smile, "I'm so sorry, Jesse, I originally planned to get together just the three of us, but... Mom gave me a surprise, she turned my birthday party into a ball. Not only did I invite Many of my classmates, and the children of some people I usually interact with..." The girl sighed and spread her hands.

"It's okay, Angie, it's your birthday anyway." Jessica didn't care.

"That means there is unlimited supply of soft drinks?" Lindsay interjected with a giggle.

"Don't drink so many carbohydrates, or you will become a chubby girl!" Angela knocked her on the head lightly, "Wait for me, be right back!"

It is not an exaggeration to describe the garden as full of people. Many men and women mixed together and talked loudly with each other.Beside the barbecue grill on the grass, the chefs are constantly turning the sizzling pieces of meat, and the table next to it is full of foods that young people like.There is a huge speaker next to the specially marked dance floor, playing different dance music, and then pairs of young men and women dance to the rhythm with dance steps that they don't even know.

"Mr. Jared is so generous, my father would not allow such use of the garden at home." Jessica, who was standing near the dance floor, looked at the noisy crowd around her and muttered softly.

Angela accompanied them to the garden for less than 2 minutes before being dragged away by others, and then Lindsay ran away alone after following her around a few times, leaving her to wander around alone.

"Hi, hello, beautiful lady, I'm Dennis Chuck, can I invite you to a dance?" A boy who seemed to be Hispanic came up to her and offered the invitation.

Maybe try it, Jessica said to herself, then nodded: "I'm honored."

The biggest advantage of self-entertainment dance is that dancers can play freely. Of course, it is hard to say whether it is beautiful or ugly. I think I dance very well, but it is often the case that people around me think it is ugly. The boy in front of him is full of vitality, especially his mouth:

"You are so beautiful, may I know your name?"

"You dance well. Is this your first time dancing?"

"Where have I met you? Seriously, you look familiar."

But Jessica just smiled and didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and ended when she turned and left.Only then shrugged and said, "You can call me Angela's friend!" Then, he ran away quickly.

After running all the way into the villa, the girl stopped.Thinking of that guy's enthusiastic look, he wanted to laugh, but it quickly turned into a wry smile, and she was still the figure that stood out the most in his heart!

At this time, an angry voice suddenly came from the corner: "I have already apologized, what else do you want?!"

This is... Lindsay?Jessica hurried over, turned the corner and saw two sixteen and seventeen girls standing in front of Lindsay, looking at her with a sneer.

"What happened?" Jessica asked quickly.

"Jessie!" Lindsay ran up to her as soon as she saw her, her mouth curled up, her face full of grievances.

"Your helper is here?" The taller girl crossed her arms and looked down at Lindsay and Jessica with condescending eyes. Her face was a bit fat, and her cheeks were dotted with freckles. The one beside her was probably her younger sister. , is also a fat face, with the same displeasure on her face as her sister.

"If possible, I want to know what's going on. I'm her friend." Jessica patted Lindsay lightly, looked at her and replied calmly.

child.

"She lied!" Lindsay yelled immediately, "She bumped into me! That's why the cuff was broken! She blamed this and this on me. I was so angry that I called them meat floss bread." , besides, I have already apologized!"

"I think it's a misunderstanding." Jessica reassured Lindsay and looked at her.

"Misunderstood? So you trust the little TV star friend? It's hard to imagine that someone would be with such a person!" The tall girl said with a sneer. At this time, her sister suddenly pulled her, stood on tiptoe She whispered something in her ear.The tall girl first showed a look of surprise, and then turned into a sneer.

"I said what's going on, it turned out to be just a starlet, no wonder you two are so similar, well, today is Angie's birthday party. I won't pursue it," she said here deliberately paused, " I'll give you a piece of advice, don't think that after making a few movies and getting to know Angie, Angie will treat you as friends, although Angie also makes movies, she's different from you guys!"

Speaking of which, she proudly raised her chin and looked at her sister: "You know, Ellie, I heard that those actresses who were born as child stars will become ugly in the future. If you want to have a chance to perform, you have to work with Producer fucked, poor bitch." Her sister shrugged that it was nothing, and they both giggled.Jessica on the one side turned pale, but desperately pulled the angry Lindsay to prevent her from messing around.

At this time, a voice rang out coldly: "Give it to me! Shut up!"

The first person who appeared in front of her was Lisa Jobs. At that time, Angela didn't realize that there was anything wrong, but just welcomed Lisa's arrival.But as more and more people appeared, especially after a group of people from the film club came with their girlfriends, she finally understood what she didn't know.

"That's right, Mrs. Elena thinks that your social scope can be expanded now, such as holding a party at home and inviting your friends to it." Facing the girl's questioning, Jennifer explained in this way.

"But this is my birthday party!" Angela was a little dumbfounded, and turned to look at Annie, who immediately raised her hands: "I swear, I don't know anything!"

The girl shook her head helplessly, and could only continue to greet the guests. Many people came, including classmates from school, such as Claire, Mary, and the group from the film club; there were also those who often attended the reception held by her father Sons and daughters of man, like the sharp-tongued Flossy Bread sisters, Barbara Larter and Allie Larter, plus their dance partners, there were probably sixty or seventy of them, and it made Angela Li complained non-stop.Mom invited too many people!

Fortunately, the servants at home have already prepared, and everything is well arranged. She only needs to greet the guests as the host. Although there are many unfamiliar people among the guests, there are also many familiar people, such as——

"Dear Angie, you are so bad that you went to the film club without a word, and several girls with great potential that I saw went with you! This made me miss the national championship, you owe me! "Laura Roosevelt hugged Angela from behind, half-jokingly said harshly.

"Okay, Laura, you've been nagging for half a year, don't you want to keep nagging? Besides, I got votes for you when you ran for the president of the student union. We're done!" Angela didn't move. Leaving her arm sensually, and then quickly left.

Fortunately, she didn't forget the most important thing. She immediately received Jessica and Lindsay outside. After she explained the situation, the two had no objections and followed her to the garden.Although Angela really wanted to be with them, some people came to say hello to her from time to time, and some familiar people simply took her away, which made her very depressed. To be honest, if this prom wasn't prepared for her by her mother, I'm afraid She had already released the pigeons of this group of people.

"Listen, guys, I will let you know about this matter after the summer vacation when I have finished my preparations. I don't need to think about it so much now." Facing the men and women of the film club, Angela spread her hands like this Said, as Laura said, the power of an idol is infinite. After she joined the film club, some boys and girls who followed her also asked to join the film club. However, Louis is not the kind who thinks that the more people in the club, The better the chairman, after working hard, finally only agreed to the application of two women and one man, which is cheaper and has a cooperative performance club.

"Okay, it's okay, as long as you need us to be on call at any time!" The outspoken Jim made a funny American military salute, which caused a lot of laughter.

"You look handsome." Morris whistled.

Louis smiled and shook his head, then looked at the girl: "Well, we owe you anyway, and you will arrange it."

"Then it's settled!" Angela said with a smile. At this moment, she put a hand on her shoulder: "Hey, boys, if you don't mind, I'm going to borrow today's star."

"It's okay. You can use it!" Jim yelled, "But you have to ask her own opinion, she doesn't belong to us!"

Amidst the laughter, the girl looked up, but she had already recognized whose voice it was. Sure enough, Lisa with a ponytail appeared in her sight!

"Hey, do you want to chat with me?" Lisa blinked her eyes playfully.

"It's an honor." Angela laughed, and the two bid farewell to the group of people from the film club, and walked slowly to a quieter place together.

"This is the first time I've attended your birthday party?" Lisa looked at Angela with her chin on her hand.

"Let's think about it, 80 doesn't count, the first time in 82, the second time in 86, the third time in 90, and this is the fourth time." The girl counted on her fingers.

"Just a few times?" Lisa nodded her head with her fingers, thought about it carefully, and finally had to admit, "Well, it's indeed the fourth time."

Following her, she asked again with great interest: "It's hard to imagine, do you still remember what happened when you were 2 years old?"

"My memory is very good, Lisa." Angela shrugged, "Including the expression on your face when you pointed at me and said you want a toy like me, I remember it clearly."

"Oh! Really? I'm so honored." Lisa laughed, and she couldn't help laughing every time she said this, "Okay, okay, the toy I wanted is now available." If you are successful and famous, you can invest in my father's company. Oh, your achievements have far surpassed many adults, you are indeed a genius, no wonder you can come up with such an idea!"

"Idea? What idea?" Angela asked hurriedly.

"Oh, it's "Toy Story". It's a really good cartoon."

"Have you seen it?" Angela was a little surprised, "They told me that the first trial screening will be held in the studio on March 3."

"It's indeed on the 24th," Lisa shrugged. "I watched it at the end of last month. I only watched it for about 60 minutes. It hasn't been fully finished yet, but even so, it still feels good."

"Really, that's great, I'm starting to look forward to the test screening." Angela said excitedly, Pixar is about to take off!

At this time, a small figure in the distance flashed away, it was Lindsay, Angela turned her eyes, looked at the people around her, just in time to find her and Jessica, and then went to bring the chocolate Cake off!

"Okay, Lisa, I'm going to find someone else, have fun." Angela greeted Lisa, and quickly ran to the place where the little guy disappeared.

However, after walking through several outer corridors from where Lindsay left, there was no sign of the girl, and the maid who met on the way also said that she hadn't seen her, so where did she go?Angela thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that she might have gone to the bathroom, so she immediately turned around and walked back. After a few steps to return to the original place, Jessica's voice suddenly reached her ears: "If possible, I would like to I know what's going on, I'm her friend"

What's wrong?Angela hurried over, leaning against the corner of the wall and looking over, there were Jessica and Lindsay on one side, and Barbara and Ellie on the other side!

The girl frowned. For the two sisters, she really didn't like them. In this circle, there are only a few people like Angela who make friends as they please, and most of them communicate with masks.They are warm and generous to the children in the same circle, but politely keep a distance from those outside the circle; there are also some people who flatter those in the circle, but ridicule as much as possible when they encounter those outside the circle.This pair of sisters is typical of them.

Angela was about to step forward to interrupt their conversation, when she heard Barbara say that Lindsay called them meat floss bread, she couldn't help but smiled knowingly, this pause resulted in Barbara's continuous vicious words popping out, The girl was stunned for a moment, then her face suddenly turned pale, especially when she heard the word "bitch", she clenched her fists, walked out and gritted her teeth coldly and shouted, "Give it to me! Shut up!"

Both parties were taken aback, and after seeing who it was, Barbara immediately smirked: "Hi, Angie..."

"I said shut up!" Angela walked up to her with a frosty face, and her cold eyes made the other party speechless.The girl pointed at Jessica, and said word by word, "Apologies to my friend!"

"An... Ji?"

"Call my name!"

"Okay...Okay, Angela, it's not my fault." Barbara had never seen Angela like this before, and she couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly defended herself.

The girl didn't interrupt her, and waited quietly for her to finish before turning to look at Lindsay: "Did you apologize, Lindsay?"

"Of course! But that sleeve is not my fault! She bumped into me first!" Lindsay shouted confidently.

"Then it's up to you, Miss Lutter." Angela looked at Barbara again, and when she started calling someone's name, she indicated that she no longer intended to be polite.

But Barbara didn't realize this at all, she opened her mouth wide, ignored her sister, pretended to be a victim and shouted: "Angela, how can you trust them! They are just two bitches ..."

Before she could say it, the collar tightened, and Angela's face was close at hand, her cold green eyes were full of anger: "If you dare to say that word again, you will know how regret is written, I promise !"

The other party trembled all over, and immediately stopped obediently, then the girl let go, and pointed to Jessica and Lindsay on the side again: "Apologize to my friends!"

Barbara moved her lips, and was completely suppressed by Angela's momentum. Finally, trembling slightly, she lowered her head and said to Jessica with her sister Ellie, "I'm very, very sorry."

Following the two people's dejected and quick steps away, after their backs disappeared, Lindsay cheered and hugged Angela from behind: "Thank you, Angie!"

The iceberg-like face immediately thawed, Angela hugged the little guy, and said with a smile: "Okay, tell me Lindsay, how did you come up with the word meat floss bread?"

"When I saw their faces, I naturally thought of it."

"Oh, so we're on the same page."

The girl was laughing and playing with Lindsay, completely unable to see that she was still threatening others before, but she stopped soon, put away her smile and looked at Jessica who was still standing aside.

"Well, well, I think I have to apologize, Jesse," Angela scratched her head, "I'm very sorry for making you wronged, there's no way, some people are so annoying, they just... talk nonsense."

She looked at Jessica with some concern: "I don't think this will affect our friendship, will it?"

Jessica looked at her, turned her head to the other side, bit her lip, and then rushed forward, hugging Angela tightly, she was so hard, as if nothing could separate them.

Angela was a little surprised at first, but then hugged Jessica tightly. There was no sense of alienation in this hug. It feels so good to go back to the beginning after going through the barrier!

At this moment, the girl suddenly understood why she felt familiar with that sense of alienation. Just a few years ago, after returning from filming "A Couple Made in China" in London, when she had wild thoughts about Jessica because of psychological problems, There is also such a close relationship between the two!
