King of Hollywood Chapter 271: I am here to declare victory

"Yes, I know this is a bit urgent, but I need it now. If you can't figure it out, let me know." Cate hung up the phone and made a click, then she greatly Took two breaths and squeezed his fingers before calming down, obviously in a bad mood.

"Mom, what about my breakfast?" Lily asked when she poked her head out of the kitchen.

"Oh...My dear, sorry, I forgot." Cate realized what she had left and said hurriedly. She hurried to the kitchen and started looking for it.

Although she has not completely moved to the mansion of Adrian, the villa she originally lived in is basically in a semi-stop state. She comes to live for two or three days every month, so here Things are not very complete, and there is only an ordinary servant responsible for the plot, so everything seems a bit messy.

"Let’s deal with it for now, dear, you know..." After pouring a bowl of wheat rings and milk for her daughter, Cate said with an apologetic smile, "It will be fine in a few days. I promise."

"Okay." Lily shrugged, neither complained nor coquettish, as if the three days after leaving her father's house were common.

"Oh, Lily, I... I’m going to see the house today, will I let someone take you to school?" Looking at your daughter who had breakfast, Cate hesitated and said so.

She doesn’t plan to stay here for too long. This villa was lived by Adrian and was later handed over to her. Everything here will make her... very, very uncomfortable.

"Mom." The daughter sighed, "Did you forget, I told you last night, today the school is on holiday, I don't have to go to school."

"Yes... is that right?" Cate was a little surprised, thinking about it on his head, and then smiled bitterly again, "Sorry, Lily, I think I forgot. After all, my mother has been... very messy these days. ."

She sighed while covering her forehead. The word "sorry" was said too much. It didn't feel good at all. I didn't know him... I realized that my thoughts would be transferred to Adrian again. Cate quickly rubbed Rubbed his head.

"So," Lily, who looked at her mother, suddenly pushed the bowl in front of her, and put her arms together on the table, making a little adult look. "Tell me about it, why are you and dad arguing?"

"Lily?" Cate frowned.

"It has been three days since I left home. Can you tell me what happened?" Lily was not very happy with her mouth muttering. "Don't tell me anything, this is an adult's business. I am 9 years old. Mom, it’s hurting you to conceal the truth like this-let’s see, what the **** is this, do I have a new aunt? Or a new sister?"

Speaking of the last sentence, the corner of her mouth bent. With a smile and curiosity on the small face, it seems to be very interesting. The Cate is somewhat stunned. After all, her daughter is always a nice and pleasant appearance in front of herself. When have you seen such a mature look? It's not that she doesn't care about Lily, it's just that the little guy's clever side is left to Dad, but to be a mother. Instinctively think that her children are obedient, perfect and perfect, even if she sees the pranks she has done to her father, she will ignore them with the mentality of "this is to exhale yourself", it is no wonder that this way.

"No, it's not," the Cate, who had recovered, sighed and shook his head. "There is an irreconcilable contradiction between me and...me and your father...so..."

"This is unlikely. Mom." Lily narrowed her eyes and looked at her mother with her face, "After all these years, you should get used to whatever you have, what can you do?" , Irreconcilable contradiction?"

Cate was a little speechless, and once again learned the maturity of her daughter, pinched the bridge of her nose for a few seconds before saying: "No, Lily, forgive me for not telling you, believe me, this thing... for you Not very suitable."

At this moment, the only servant of the villa came to the kitchen door: "Madam, there is a lady named Emma Watson looking for you."

"Emma?" Cate showed a surprised expression. After a moment of stunnedness on the seat, it reacted and immediately got up and walked out. She quickly came to the door, and after opening, she saw that Emma was boring counting fingers outside.

"Hi, Cate, good morning." The girl greeted her naturally, "I thought you had to wait a few minutes to open the door."

"I...I didn't expect you to come here..." Cate looked at her with some doubt and stuttering, "You should go back to England, don't you go to school?"

"I'm on leave," Emma shrugged. "Something like this happened, and I certainly have to stay to see the specific situation."

Cate frowned, but before speaking, Lily happily ran out from behind: "Emma!"

She jumped very affectionately and gave Little Emma a big hug. Little Emma also smiled and hugged Lily against her face, and the Cate in her eyes couldn't help but frown deeper.

"I thought you were back in London, how is your family? Listening to Aunt Charlie, they said that Dad was very depressed about Mom’s departure, but Dad said nothing happened, and it will pass soon, but Mom said just now There is an irreconcilable contradiction with my dad, I really don’t know what they are thinking." Lily tweeted and kept asking, but she didn’t realize that her mother turned her face into a bad look.

"Lily..." Cate coughed lightly and was about to say something, but Lily stepped back and shouted in dissatisfaction: "Okay, Mom, I'm also a father's daughter anyway, I can’t even make a phone call. If you want me to do this, please tell me the exact reason!"

In the face of her serious daughter, Cate couldn’t help but have some headaches. Fortunately, Emma inserted it at this time: “Okay, Lily, let’s go in. I have something to say to Cate.”

"What's the matter? Can I know?" Lily, who took the little Emma into the house, asked as she walked, her eyes lit up. "It's a quarrel for mom and dad? Are you a lobbyist?"

"No. Lily, no," little Emma glanced at Cate with a smile. "I can't get involved in this kind of thing. I came to Cate to want to have a woman-to-woman conversation with her." "

"Women's conversation with women?" Lily blinked, looking at Emma and her mother. Even if she was very precocious, she would inevitably be confused.

And Emma Jr. raised her head and looked at Cate with bright eyes: "Are you free. Cate? Will not delay you for too long."

Cate’s gaze wandered back and forth between her daughter and little Emma. The look on her face was a bit cloudy, and after a long while, she said: “Well, let’s go to the study upstairs.”

"Why can't I be here?" Lily asked strangely, and then added an additional sentence: "Can I listen?"

"No, Lily." Cate and Emma Jr. said in unison, neatly aligned like the previous preview, not only did Lily open her mouth wide. Even Cate and Little Emma are a little surprised.

"Wow, should you make an appointment? I'm starting to get more and more curious." Lily smiled and looked between Mom and Little Emma.

"No, Lily, this is a conversation between me and Cate. You must not overhear," Emma Xiao extinguished her thoughts for the first time. And raised her hand to reach her, "This is very important, Lily, so I hope you can swear."

"So serious," the little guy pouted. But still put five fingers on the hands of little Emma, ​​"Well, I swear I will never overhear your conversation."

Then she sat honestly on the sofa in the living room, watching her mother and little Emma walk upstairs together.

"Lily... often eavesdropping on adults' conversations?" Cate asked a little while walking.

"No, she just wants to care about what her parents think of her. I used to overhear Ed and chat with you or others. Lily is much more mature than you think, Cate." Little Emma chuckled. Said.

Cate rolled her eyes and did not speak again. The two of them came to the study and closed the door and locked it. Then she asked in a pretentious manner: "What do you want to say, Emma?" Are you voluntary? It has nothing to do with him? You love him and you don’t want to leave him. You don’t want to see me and him like this, so I hope I go back?"

At this point, she chuckled softly: "He is always like this, first let others approach you to lobby you, and wait for you to slowly relax the alert, he will just insert it right, grab the most in your heart The soft piece of public relations makes you confused and falls into his hands again. This is really ridiculous, he has no courage to face me..."

"Wait, Cate, wait," little Emma sitting on the sofa raised her hand with a smile, "You seem to have made a mistake, I am not here to tell you this, I am here Is for—"

She lifted her legs but sat upright again, her hands propped up in front of her, and announced in a proud tone: "I am here to announce my victory."

"Your... victory?" Cate blinked, and it took several seconds to digest this sentence.

"Yes, my victory," the girl nodded solemnly. "After nearly ten years of competition, I won. From now on, I am Ed's favorite and caring woman!"

"Are you...what are you talking about?" Cate frowned more and more confused.

Little Emma didn’t care at all and said to herself: "From the moment I made up my mind, I knew that you were my biggest obstacle. Ed confessed it personally. You met him after he was determined to cheer up You are the first woman with a heart, you have a unique position in his heart. Unfortunately I can only be behind you, so even if I become his woman, the position in his heart will be after you, me I have always been unwilling to do this."

"Wait... wait," Cate waved a little unconsciously, "What the **** are you talking about, you...you wanted to be a woman of Ed very early?"

"Remember?" Emma Jr.'s smile became deeper. "What did you, Ed, and me say when I ate ice cream at the amusement park in London? Although I was only one at that time It’s a little big, but what I said that day, I still remember clearly! Do you know, Cate, when I need the embrace of Ed, I need him to sleep with me, I need him to lie down next to him, when he needs me to tease me, he But you have to leave me because of one of your eyes or a sentence, and then endure with you, do you know how unwilling I am?"

"I...I...you...this is not the same!" Cate's thoughts were clearly confused.

"Even!" Little Emma suddenly raised her voice. "I still have to use every means to get to the bed of Ed. God, I don’t have any face anymore, but he refuses to touch me. Knowing that I threatened him, he didn’t want me, so I went to play with enough men. , He had to compromise. I know, it’s all because of you, because you are earlier than me. Because you grew up watching me, he had to take care of your feelings!"

She said such a big deal, and she jumped up from the sofa, angrily excited, and then slowly controlled her emotions.

"Although I have achieved my long-term goals, I know that this is not finished yet, as long as Ed and I haven't told you anything about him. I can't count him being robbed from you!" Although Emma Jr. looked up at Cate, she gave a sense of dominance. "I made a lot of preparations for this, including how to show my tenderness if you are angry with Ed, and if you are in a cold war with Ed. How can I show my tolerance. But I didn’t think of it at all. In the end, I tried in vain, because...you actually surrendered! Yes, you didn’t do anything, just left so neatly. It’s ridiculous, you thought you showed Not your own attitude? You are surrendering to me."

"How do you... how can you..." Cate made several meaningless gestures, forcibly pressed down his annoyed and confused mind, and then watched the girl in front of him breathing heavily, his expression changed. Several times, he bit his teeth and asked, "So. You come to me and announce that you have won."

"Yes, Ed has to consider your feelings, I don't have to," Little Emma looks like she doesn't care. She doesn't seem to care about her at all. "Of course, I have another sentence to tell you besides this. Cate, since the decision has been made, don’t regret it, it’s good for everyone."

"You!" Cate was finally angry, and his hands were subconsciously squeezed into fists.

At this moment, the knock on the door rang, and the bang rang, and Cate had to go to the door after glaring at the girl fiercely. After opening, she saw Lily outside, Cate's face Suddenly a bit pale.

"I didn't overhear, mother!" Lily quickly raised her hand and declared, "I came knocking because someone came."

"Hi, Cate, are you okay?" Charlize immediately turned around and looked inside. Emma Jr. waved with her.

"Ed is right, you refuse to go back to London and you must stay here, just for now." Charlize said calmly.

"Of course," Little Emma smiled and glanced at Cate again, "Ed knows me very well, just like I know him very well."

After hearing this sentence, Cate, who was originally calmed down by the appearance of her daughter and Charlize, suddenly felt like she was not going to fight, but unfortunately Lily was in front of her. She glared.

Little Emma is still that indifferent look, Shi Shiran walked out, patted Charlize’s arm, and immediately pulled Lily with interest: "Charlie and your mother must have something to say Say, let’s go down first."

Lily also clearly saw something, and nodded cleverly, saying nothing, and went downstairs with little Emma.

"Are you all right?" When their backs disappeared, Charlize looked at Cate again. She was wearing a formal dress and her hair was short. She looked very capable.

"Did I look terrible?" As soon as her daughter and Emma left, Cate leaned against the door frame and reached over her forehead.

"It is much better now," Charlize looked at her carefully. "When you opened the door just now, it was ugly as if to punch someone."

Cate sighed, did not speak for a long time, Charlize did not speak, just looked at her so quietly.

"Are you not going to the company today?" she asked weakly after a while.

"I took leave, the chairman of the head office personally approved it." Charlize made a small joke.

Cate twitched the corner of his mouth, it was a laugh, and then thought of something straight up to look at the stairs: "She will not..."

"No," Charlize knew what she was talking about. "Emma is not an insignificant person. Even if she is targeting you now, she will also consider Ed's feelings. Lily is also the daughter of Ed after all."

After hearing this sentence, Cate uttered a whimper involuntarily, and his body twitched slightly. Charlize finally reached out and hugged her into his arms~IndoMTL.com~ hugged tightly.

“I know you’re sad and confused, Cate, it’s okay, so Sarah and Ini and I haven’t called you for the last three days. We hope you take some time to calm down and we also order Ed to do it. Explain in detail, just... I didn’t expect Emma to come to you." Charlize patted her back while gently kissing her cheek. "There are always some unexpected changes."

"Oh, no, Charlie, I never thought that such a thing would happen," Cate buried on Charlize's shoulder choked, "I thought it was Ed's problem, but I didn't expect Emma... This girl I watched grow up actually...God, what the **** is going on..."

"Yes, I was also shocked when I first knew it. I don’t know why Ed was going to..." Charlize sighed, looking at nobody’s study, showing a complicated look, "Fortunately, I am It’s not as close to Emma as you are, so after calming down, I can barely look at the problem from an objective point of view. I have to admit that Emma is indeed a smart, stubborn and very restless girl, especially when she is alone After talking a few times, these three points are very obvious, so...I know that she can really do some things..."

"What should I do?" Cate raised his head and looked at Charlize with a praying look, as if to want some encouragement and support from her. . . )
