Chapter 241 (1/2)
”The box office performance of Kate's film is not good, and the gossip newspapers make fun of her relationship with you, so I'm sorry to come here this time. Just as it happens, her stay in Los Angeles can help us watch the construction of that house. ”
Inside the elevator, Janet intimately takes Simon's arm and tells about what happened in Los Angeles.
Simon listened with a smile and said, ”Katherine is the kind of director with a strong personal style. She just hasn't found her own type yet.”
”What kind of movie do you think Kate is suitable for?” Janet asked
”War movies,” Simon blurted out, adding: ”Catherine's realistic lens style is very suitable for showing the intensity and cruelty of war.”
Janet tilted her head and said, ”it's true. Although Kate is sometimes shy and unsociable, she is full of violence. When she was in Columbia, many of her paintings were bloody.”
The jingle of the elevator interrupts the conversation. Simon glances at the light. This is the 32nd floor.
They walked out of the elevator and down the corridor to the door of an apartment.
Janet took the key out of her bag, opened the door, entered the hallway, threw off her shoes and walked barefoot to the living room.
Simon followed him through the door. He had planned to stoop down to pick up the woman's shoes and put them on the next shoe rack. A faint fragrance of women came from around, even with some indescribable deja vu.
Just, this kind of opposite sex breath that should make people relaxed and happy makes Simon feel his head slightly swollen, as if something wants to rush out from the memory. After a brief dizziness, Simon got used to the smell and became clear again.
Help Janet set up her shoes and take off her shoes. There are no men's slippers on the shoe rack. Simon walks into the living room barefoot like Janet.
Janet handed over a bottle of mineral water and said, ”this is the only one in the fridge. Why don't you call Neil to buy something to deliver?”
Simon took the mineral water and said with a smile, ”don't bother Neil any more. Besides, this is not your apartment, is it?”
Janet nodded and said, ”when I was 18 years old, I wanted to buy my own apartment in the city, but my parents didn't let me. Later, I lived in Los Angeles most of the time, so I didn't have to. I came back to live in a big house in the suburbs.”
Simon gestured around: ”so here?”
”Iceberg,” Janet said, taking off her coat and throwing it on the sofa, ”but she's been on holiday in England recently. We can just live here.”
Simon was confused. Then he remembered who the iceberg was and said, ”is it suitable for us to live in your aunt's apartment?”
”Of course, when I went back to Melbourne, I didn't want to hear the old man's nagging, so I came here to rub,” Janet said indifferently. She grabbed Simon's mineral water, drank a few mouthfuls, threw away the bottle, and wrapped her arms around her. ”Little bastard, do you miss me at this time?”
Simon smiles and holds the woman's light body, saying: ”too busy.”
Janet came to Simon's lips and said, ”well, bite you.”
After a while, Janet groaned and pointed in one direction. Simon went to turn off the light in the living room and went to the bedroom.
Maybe it's because of being in a strange environment. All night long, there are all kinds of scattered dreams. Many people's memories come out of their minds. Even, at some point, I know I'm dreaming, but I can't wake up.
In all kinds of fragments, there is a small figure again, a very clever child, silent, silent, maybe some autistic.
They are often locked in dark cupboards.
The child is wise and expects someone to visit him for a long time, because at that time, he can eat delicious food, get new clothes, and all the people around him will become kind.
Broken thoughts drifting, after all, can not spell out any specific picture, only a light engraved in the memory of the deepest breath.
Later, later.
The child completely became a person, in a strange place, like a stubborn little beast, living alone.
When Simon wakes up, he finds that there are obvious traces of tears on his pillow, and some of them go back to the dream of last night in a daze, but those fragments melt quickly like ice and snow in the blazing sun.
The bright light came through the gap of the curtain. Simon reached for the watch on the head cabinet and looked at it. It was already 11:55. I wake up at 8 a.m. on weekdays. Although I slept a little late with Janet last night, it's still abnormal to wake up near noon.
What's more, we usually have a meeting with cersei capital's sub fund operation team in the morning, but no one calls us today.
Maybe Janet hung up the phone calls from those people and wanted to take a break.
With that in mind, after getting out of bed, he took a quick shower and put on the clothes Janet had prepared for himself. Simon came to the living room and the smell of food came from the kitchen.Simon called, and Janet came out of the kitchen, shook a spoon in her hand and said, ”five minutes, you can watch TV first.”
Nodding, Simon went to the refrigerator and opened the door. It was already filled with all kinds of fruit drinks. It should be that Jennie had just bought a bottle of mineral water in the morning and drank most of it in one breath. Simon was going to the kitchen to help, but there was a sound from the porch.
The security of this high-end apartment is very tight. Theoretically, no one should break in unconsciously.
As he walked past in doubt, Simon saw a tall blonde woman in a beige turtleneck and black trousers at the entrance, with a small suitcase in her hand.
When the woman saw Simon, her face turned pale for a moment, and her eyes stayed there with panic and fear, as if she had been immobilized.
Simon guessed the identity of the woman for the first time, but when he saw the other party, when he entered the apartment last night, he felt dizzy again, and many dream like fragments began to gather in his memory.
A severe headache seems to blow your head off.
Simon struggled to raise his arm, trying to rub his temples. However, the arm has not been raised, the whole person has fainted on the floor.
