King of Hollywood Chapter 167: Sarah


"It's here, let me go down." As the street scene gradually became familiar, Sarah, who had been silent since she got in the car, finally opened her mouth. She originally wanted to refuse Adrian to send herself back, but Adrian didn't worry about doing so and promised to only send it two blocks away from her home, so Sally eventually acquiesced in his approach.

Adrian parked the car to the street according to the words, Sarah immediately unfastened the seat belt of the co-pilot and was about to get off, but Adrian stopped her at this time: "I want to talk to you about some things, Sha Pull."

Sarah's body stiffened, withdrew the hand of the car door, sat upright in position, and stared straight ahead.

"Your current agent is Chelsea Perkins, right?" Adrian didn't seem to notice her movements. "I will let her form a team for you to design your image and various public relations. Although young idols are relatively famous, it takes time, and your current age is in an awkward period. The younger girl’s role does not match your image, and the older mature image may not be able to grasp well, so this For a while, you can only play some supporting roles.

But don’t worry, I will prepare a suitable youth idol movie for you in the second half of next year, and before that I will try to arrange for you to appear in some of the well-established supporting roles in those big productions, such as "Reality" lie". You can take this opportunity to learn something under the guidance of your team. I want to train you to become the best idol star. Even if the transition is not smooth in the future, you can still leave your own trace in the entertainment circle. Understand? "

Sarah stared at Adrian stunnedly, and didn't recover until the other party asked her again if she understood.

"I know." She nodded her head busy to make clear, seeing that Adrian didn't mean to speak anymore, and then opened the door to say goodbye, and Sarah turned back only after one foot had already stepped out Say a whisper: "Thank you."

After walking a few steps on the street, and after looking around to make sure that there were no known people, she turned around to find the trace of Adrian. The car parked on the street had already started, and turned around to drive back and forth.

Sarah finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart that had been slamming and thumping had finally calmed down, but an indescribable taste came to her heart at the same time. With a wry smile in her heart, she walked towards her home.

Only two blocks away, she quickly came out of the house and carefully observed the left and right while pulling out the key to open the door. Although she got paid for "Casper", she and her mother moved to the best neighbourhood in this area, but some habits cannot be changed for a while.

"Mom, are you back?" Sarah found her mother's handbag on the coffee table when she entered the living room.

"Yes, baby." Roselan walked out of the kitchen after hearing the sound.

"How early is today?" Sarah was a little surprised at first, but then became doubtful again.

"Because... there is no work to deal with today, so I have to ask for leave in advance." Roseland said a little, a trace of embarrassment flashed from his face, and then asked the diversion topic: "Where did you go?" ?I think your schoolbag is at home, it should be home after school and then go out?"

"Yes, I went out with some friends." Sarah replied with a smile, and didn't follow up.

"Great, you should hang out with your friends more, don't always worry about these," Roselan said as she followed her daughter's words. "I hope you can be happier, Shaqie, Ed often said that you sometimes look too gloomy."

When she heard the name of Adrian, Sarah was in a trance for a few seconds, but then she adjusted and smiled at her mother: "Okay, mother, I will take care of myself."

Roslan looked at her daughter for a few seconds and suddenly reached out to hug her, but when she reached halfway, she realized that she was still wearing an apron for cooking and suddenly withdrew her hand awkwardly. At this time, Sarah stepped forward and hugged her mother regardless of her. She hugged her head firmly on her shoulder.

"Sahie, oh, Sahie." Roselan yelled a little sadly, trying to touch her daughter's head, but she still had some oil stains on her hands, so she had to let her hold her.

"Mom, I love you." Sarah released her hand and looked at her mother, a faint flash of determination in her eyes.

"I love you too, Shassie." Roseland responded lovingly as she watched her daughter, and turned to the kitchen as she thought of something: "Yes, I'm making your favorite sushi, Last time I learned to make it at the restaurant, I promise to taste good."

"Great, I will help too." Sarah said and went to grab her cuffs.

"No, no, baby, just go back to your room and rest. Just wait for me to call you, and you come down again, okay?" Roselan shook her head and refused to help her daughter.

"Why?" Sarah asked puzzled, "I can do it well, and I have helped you cook before."

"Yes, I know, but it won't work today." Roseland smiled. "Listen to me, will you?"

Sarah, who still wants to persevere, catches the plea that flashed in her mother’s eyes. She felt a slight pain in her heart. She still smiled on the surface and nodded obediently: "I will go back to the room."

After watching her mother enter the kitchen, Sarah walked upstairs. As soon as she entered her room, she fell on her back on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. She could not remember how many times this was. When the father was still there, the mother was a full-time housewife, so after the father left for no reason, the mother who could do nothing would look for work and hit the wall.

She has sat in everything, such as cleaners, waiters, promoters, etc. In addition to these, she often has to help Sarah make the guest guest role (Note). If it was not Sarah, she was already famous. If you can make some money every month, God knows what their lives will become.

Even in this way, life still continues to embarrass them. Every job that my mother has won has never been completed for half a year, and she will always be dismissed because of such problems. My mother will hide her every time she is dismissed, and then try to find a new job before she finds it. She can hide her once or twice, but after a long time, how can Sarah not notice? It's just that she never exposed her mother, just like she did just now.

Although Sarah continues to make money by acting to cover her sadness and sorrow, she has never been as popular as several girls in the same period until she met Adrian. Although the performance in "Memento" has never been released at all, "Casper" has made her a real high-profile target. Those journalists who interviewed will not say anything, and there are many times more fans in the school alone. Come.

Of course, her reputation is still secondary. This movie got her almost 800,000 in film rewards. In addition, after the movie was sold, Adrian gave her a 300,000 red envelope. This is the first time she took That's the money. Sarah and her mother moved to this side of Xilin District immediately, and also bought many things for her. That was her most happy time so far.

But the next audition for "Real Lies" gave Sara a head start, even though she did it seriously as directed by the director, and got another chance through Adrian, she still failed.

Once something tastes sweet, it’s very difficult to think about the past, and Sarah doesn’t allow this kind of situation. She doesn’t want her mother to live the same life as before. But she didn’t know what to do. Although the agent had many opportunities to comfort her, how did she understand her extreme insecurity hidden in her heart?

No matter how independent or assertive Sarah is, she is always just a teenage girl. After thinking about it, she can't help but think of certain things she has heard. As someone who has stepped into this circle since she was 4 years old, of course, she has heard a lot of such things, and at first she felt disgusted, but when she heard more, she became numb and didn't care, but she didn't expect this road one day Will be one of your choices.

People are always like this. When it comes to their most important things, they are always in a mess. If they find a feasible way, their eyes will be difficult to turn to other aspects, no matter how smart they are. After all, only the best people, or like Adrian, can predict the future, can jump out of the game and think about the problem with a bystander or God perspective.

But Sarah didn’t know what to do. She couldn’t tell her mother, and couldn’t ask others, so after thinking for a long time, she looked like a man.

The girl in a daze lying on the bed suddenly jumped up, came to the dresser a few steps and sat down, staring at herself in the mirror for a while before sighing with a wry smile, then lowered her head to cover her face . Whether it was the robbery or the shooting of "Memento~IndoMTL.com~" or later the "Casper" crew, Adrian gave her a different feeling, that is... a sense of security. Yes, a sense of security, especially when he held her upstairs at the Golden Globes night party and shrunk in his arms, the feeling couldn't be more obvious.

Besides, she was unreasonably making trouble in the restaurant at the beginning, but Adrian specially gave her a new role in order to compensate herself. In addition, "Casper" was also recommended by him, and "True Lies" was also recommended for auditions. Although Sarah knew a little about his private life, he still thought he was a good person. So, you can only find him if you think about it, at least...she doesn't hate him.

I can’t do it... I really can’t do it... Sarah looked at herself in the mirror between her fingers and murmured.

She summoned up the courage to go to the Adrian office. When she heard him promise, she was relieved and lost, as well as an indescribable shame.

What does he think of him? contempt? Contempt? Sarah bit her lip, even though she was in the car before, he told her that if she wanted to be the best idol star, she would not feel better.

Forget it, it’s okay, so be it, as long as...as long as mother...
