King of Hollywood

Chapter 160 Second Coming

Adrian doesn't remember the date of Paltrow's death, and he doesn't even know if Paltrow died before he was reborn, although if he looks for it in his memory, there is a good chance that he will find it. However, he was not surprised by the death of the old Paltrow. It is well known that the old Paltrow had throat cancer, but it has been a long time. He has been fighting and has achieved certain results. He looked good when he saw him a few weeks ago, but he died suddenly.

The old Paltrow died in Italy, and he died very suddenly. After attending his daughter's birthday party in Italy, he and his wife went to Rome for vacation. The throat cancer suddenly worsened and lasted only about four days. Adrian was not at the scene, nor had he read the medical report, so he didn't know the specific situation. He could only guess that the climate in Rome or something else affected his condition.

He didn't attend Gwyneth's birthday party. In fact, except Kate and the others who already had children and were in a special situation, he basically didn't attend other people's birthday parties. As for the reason, refer to Valentine's Day. Of course, there will be many gifts and blessings that should be given, and after that, I will make an appointment to go out alone for two days.

What's more, old Paltrow has always looked down on him because of his daughter's affairs. It is hard to say that there will be no disputes between the two when they are together in private. If it was nothing before, but since old Paltrow's throat cancer was diagnosed, Adrian At the beginning, try to avoid this situation as much as possible. He can't care about the patient, right? Not to mention pushing out Gwyneth, who basically got it.

So he received the news from Paltrow Sr. in Los Angeles. Just when he was hesitating whether to go to Italy to see, news came that the old Paltrow was critically ill, and Gwyneth called him crying, saying that his father had passed away. It's a pity, if he was on the scene... This is actually quite normal, after all, there will inevitably be delays in the transmission of news across half the world.

Gwyneth didn't blame Adrian for this, but kept crying to him. When she was in Italy, she would cry on the phone for dozens of minutes every day. After sending her father's body back, she curled up in his arms and sobbed every day. He didn't want to see anyone except his mother, and both eyes were swollen. It was not surprising that he was thrown into his words in front of everyone at home that day.

Because the cause of Paltrow's death was not in dispute, the body was quickly shipped back from Italy and the funeral was held on Friday. Many relatives and friends came that day. The Paltrows still knew many people in Hollywood. Spielberg is here, and Gwyneth has made many friends over the years. Blanchett and Liv also came. After all, the public knows that they are very close friends. As for the news in the circle, no one will mention it at this time.

In short, the funeral is still very grand.

Of course, Adrian will definitely be present. He sat next to Gwyneth, but Gwyneth begged for this seat for him. Blythe wouldn't want him, the guy who abducted his daughter, to sit next to Gwyneth at her funeral. It's one thing to have a tacit relationship in the circle, but quite another to openly appear together in a family affair like this.

However, no matter how firm the belief is, it can't stand up to her daughter's entreaties.

"Mom, please, I've lost my father, I can't lose Ed anymore." Gwyneth said with tears in her eyes.

Facing his daughter's red and swollen eyes, Blythe had to agree against his will.

"...This is a noble man, and his soul rests in heaven." With the pastor's eulogy, the funeral has come to an end. I don't know if it's a coincidence or something, but after a long time of overcast clouds, California, which has always been sunny, finally scattered a few light rains.

"Don't be sad, Gwyneth, you see, even God is sad for you." After throwing flowers into the coffin, Adrian walked quickly to Gwyneth, softly in the light rain. Sound of consolation.

After watching her father's burial with her own eyes, Gwyneth finally stopped crying. Just snuggled into his arms and hugged his arms tighter, no matter who came to say hello. Although this may cause some rumors-in fact, because she has been with him almost every step of the way these days, something has been circulated, and it is precisely because of this that Bryce will reluctantly agree to his daughter's request. It would be possible, if not impossible, for Ann to marry.

But Adrian didn't care. If he didn't take the time to comfort Gwyneth at this time, would he just watch the opportunity slip away? Besides, it's not that the women around him don't know what kind of personality he is.

After the funeral, I returned home and entertained some guests, and the matter was over, but Adrian stayed at her parents' house with Gwyneth that night. This is a very rare thing at first, because the old Paltrow and Adrian's relationship is not very good, so he has basically never stayed at Gwyneth's parents' house, and it is self-evident that this breakthrough indicates something.

"Am I ugly these days?" Under the slightly dim bedside lamp, Gwyneth asked, who was lying on the bed and snuggled up in Adrian's arms.

"Well, a little bit, but at least it looks better than it did a few months ago, really." Adrian said jokingly, which finally made her smile.

But then she sighed again, buried her head in his chest, and her body shrank even tighter: "I know... there will be such a day sooner or later, since Dad was diagnosed. I thought I was ready, But... but... when his condition improved, he still smiled and said, look, I still have decades to live, who knew it would be so fast..."

Gwyneth's voice was choked again, and Adrian hurriedly patted her back to comfort her again. She really cared about her father. From the bottom of her heart, Gwyneth is actually a small woman, she likes to rely on men, and she likes the feeling of being pampered and cared for.

The old Paltrow is actually very good, otherwise he would not have taught so many friends, and Spielberg would not have agreed to be his daughter's godfather. The love and concern for her daughter is also unambiguous, nothing else. It can be seen from his worry that his daughter talked to Adrian several times, and that every time his daughter was nominated for an Oscar, he would rush to publicize her. If Adrian hadn't deliberately suppressed Gwyneth, maybe last year or Awarded.

Therefore, if it wasn’t for Adrian’s ability to coax women, and he started early and exhausted his means, plus the power in Hollywood is increasing every day, it may not be able to occupy a dominant position in Gwyneth’s heart—even so, the old Paltrow Still an integral part of her life. The reason why she keeps suppressing Gwyneth is more or less related to this.

"I still remember the appearance of my father at the birthday party a few days ago. He said no...no...and he should have seen..." Gwyneth, who controlled her emotions, did not move behind speak out.

After being silent for a while, Adrian sighed: "I'm sorry, my dear, but... I promise, next year, I will definitely win this late honor with the most beautiful appearance.

"The most beautiful?" Gwyneth was puzzled.

"Yes, the most beautiful," Adrian nodded affirmatively, stroking her face. "I'm sorry that I can't tell you everything now, otherwise the meaning of the surprise will be lost, but you will understand when the list of Oscar nominations comes out. I believe Blue will be very happy if he knows."

"Oh, Ed..." After staring into his eyes for a moment, Gwyneth wrapped her arms around his neck. Kiss him bitterly.

After lingering like this several times, as if she had vented all the pain in her heart, Gwyneth separated from Adrian, and then put her head on his face and panted slightly: "You won't leave me, yes Wouldn't it be like Dad? Not in any way?"

"No." Adrian replied softly, "In the future, I will replace your father and protect you from harm. You are mine. Gwynnie."

"I'm yours," Gwyneth murmured, before sitting up, reaching for her pajamas, "Let's fuck, Ed."

Adrian has always remembered the serious and dissatisfied look of old Paltrow when he faced himself in private, as a father. He can understand how he feels. But as a man, and he "abducted" his daughter's playboy, despite his gentle attitude, he never let it go.

It's a pity, from now on, the old Paltrow will never argue with him again, but Gwyneth is completely his from the inside out.

No matter how hard you are hit, no matter how much you are surrounded by pain, as long as you are not alone, as long as you have relatives, friends, and lovers, you will come out of the haze. It is only a matter of time. Of course, there is still necessary relaxation, but almost a week after the funeral, Gwyneth basically recovered. When Adrian invited her to go to China together, someone told him it was a step too late.

"Gwyneth has agreed to go skiing in Canada with us, so don't try to snatch it, Ed." Blanchett said with a smile, holding Gwyneth's arm.

"That's right, she's ours for the next few days, don't try to take her away!" Liv said while holding her other arm, and Gwyneth in the middle could only smile wryly, but still looked a little happy.

Adrian knew that Blanchett and Liv just wanted to unravel Gwyneth in their own way, which is actually not bad. Every time the three of them kissed and caressed each other in front of him, it was very eye-catching, but China It’s better to go alone, oh, and bring Ivanka.

This time I went to China because of the invitation sent by Zhang Weiping through the Wang brothers. "Heroes" has already been prepared, and the publicity has already begun. They would very much like Adrian to be there if they can.

The words of the second picture of the new picture are very sincere, and Wang Zhongjun also thanked him on the phone for everything he did for the release of "Big Wrist" in North America. He also hoped that he could come to the mainland to see it again, so Adrian asked Ivanka to arrange it. The schedule, of course, is still very low-key in the past, and it is still not time to show off.

It's not hard to guess what the Wang brothers think. The cumulative box office of "Big Wrist" in North America has exceeded 8 million, and it is currently approaching 9 million, and it is very likely to break through 10 million.

This is not an exaggeration. The timing of the release is just right. Although it is the summer vacation at the end of August, there are no commercial masterpieces before and after. Moreover, Bosworth, who is in charge of distribution, has done a good job in publicity and is not greedy. It will be released in dozens of theaters. After accumulating a certain amount of word-of-mouth, we will add theaters. Moreover, "Big Whistleblower" is also in a certain sense in line with the theme of American movies, where small people can do big things, but the ending is slightly off, but the two sarcasm aimed at websites and houses are very appetizing, and Adrian specifically explained To do a good job in translation, dubbing personnel must also have sufficient quality, and it is normal to get such a result.

For Huayi, this is definitely a profit. How many Chinese directors or how many mainland directors can get nearly 10 million movie box office in North America? It is said that after this news was sent back to the mainland, many directors were jealous. Feng Xiaogang is also complacent and complacent. The invitation for the second picture of the new screen is largely to prepare for the release of "Hero" in North America.

Through the release of "Big Wrist" in North America, Adrian has fully demonstrated his sincerity, so the Wang brothers must start to take seriously the package plan proposed by him and then perfected by the people below.

Yawning, Adrian opened his eyes slightly, and woke up from a deep sleep, probably because he often traveled between the United States and Europe, and the time difference adjusted quickly. Moreover, he has the best nutritionist and fitness trainer to arrange various maintenance matters for him, and his body has always been good. Even though he was given a lot of white wine by the Wang brothers, Er Zhang and other accompanying guests last night, now he is just a bit of a headache .

I moved my body, squeezed the breasts in my arms, and was about to get up, when I suddenly realized that something was wrong. Looking down, it was an oriental girl curled up in his arms.

Raising his eyebrows in surprise, Adrian tried his best to recall the details of last night while carefully looking at that pretty face. At this time, the eyelashes of the girl in his arms moved. Then she yawned and opened her eyes. She was a little confused at first, she was stunned for several seconds, then she exclaimed, she sat up in a panic and pulled the quilt to cover her chest, a little frightened and at a loss looked at Adrian.

"Well... please don't panic, please, Miss Gao." Adrian showed a gentle smile, then sat up and got out of bed.

"You...you..." The young girl stammered for a few seconds before remembering who he was. She immediately pursed her lips and lowered her head. With a look of embarrassment, she grabbed the quilt covering her chest even tighter. tight.

"If you want, you can call me Ed, and I hope to call you Yuanyuan." Adrian smiled nonchalantly.

The delicate girl in front of him who had slept with him was the "clear girl" Gao Yuanyuan, to be honest. The Wang brothers gave him quite a surprise. They just said something casually at the beginning, but they remembered it so firmly that they specially called her to accompany them at the dinner last night.

At this moment, he has basically regained his energy. After a little recollection, Gao Yuanyuan's timid and nervous appearance at the dinner party popped up in his mind. Looking into Adrian's eyes, it is obviously not suitable for this kind of scene and she is very wronged, but she doesn't know that this complements her delicate temperament, making people move their index fingers and want to press her on the bed to peel off the shell Arbitrary.

Fortunately, I also poured her a few more glasses at the dining table, allowing her to relax, otherwise Adrian might not be able to easily bring her back to the room with her various reactions. Of course, it is also possible to use force or force to overwhelm someone, but that person is a bit unattractive.

"Obviously, we... had a good night last night." Adrian said after thinking about it.

Gao Yuanyuan didn't answer, but her face turned red, and it went all the way to her ears, obviously she recalled the details of being in bed last night. Adrian, who saw it in his eyes, couldn't help laughing secretly, he looked very quiet and pure, Gao Yuanyuan with Xiaojiabiyu's temperament, once she was provoked, her behavior on the bed was not inferior to Lin Chiling and Lin Xilei at all, let's take a look You know the clothes all over the floor and the messy sheets on the bed.

Although this has nothing to do with drinking, but it is more attractive to say that she does not have this kind of heart in her heart. It is a good thing to use her as an example at the beginning.

"Aren't you going to say something? Or you want me to find someone to make some thunder and lightning and heavy rain outside, and then I will proudly hold you in my arms with a cigarette in my mouth, laughing and saying, from now on you Is it my man?" Adrian spread his hands, "In that case, you have to cooperate first and pull the quilt to cry secretly."

Gao Yuanyuan suddenly burst out laughing, then raised her head to look at Adrian with surprised eyes, probably wondering why this foreigner knows so many jokes that only Chinese people know. But she immediately lowered her head again, a little embarrassed and embarrassing, and the blush on her face that had already dissipated increased again.

"What's wrong?" Adrian was a little puzzled.

"You...can you...put on your pants first..." The delicate girl finally said the first relatively complete sentence when she woke up, and the soft voice was very pleasant.

Only then did Adrian realize that he was still naked, and the huge thing was still swinging around outside, and immediately coughed in embarrassment: "Sorry."

Then I quickly picked up my underwear and clothes and put them on, but because I moved too fast, I was already grabbing the clothes and trousers while I was still wearing the underwear. Although I put it on, I lost my balance due to too much force . Although he tried his best to adjust his balance, he stepped on the floor and ran a few steps, but finally fell down. Fortunately, he used the last bit of time to adjust his position, so he fell on the bed and made a muffled plop.

Gao Yuanyuan was startled at first, and subconsciously grabbed the quilt to let him go when he fell down, but seeing him exaggeratedly grinning and sucking in air-conditioning, she couldn't help laughing again, when Adrian After rolling her eyes, she couldn't help laughing even louder, and the embarrassment of waking up in the morning disappeared.
