I’m in Hollywood

The first love she was looking forward to ended without a hitch before it even started. The sad girl couldn't rest all night. It wasn't until dawn that Caroline simply packed her luggage and left her room.

She had planned to leave quietly, and he wouldn't necessarily care about her anyway.

The corridor of the hotel was empty, leading to the elevator on the left, and Eric's room not far from the right. She looked around, hesitating, but in the end, she couldn't hold back some of the expectations in her heart, and found a place for herself. For a very reasonable reason, it would be rude to say goodbye to her upbringing.

Arriving at the door of Eric's room, Caroline reached out and rang the doorbell, then waited quietly, quickly thinking about what to say next, maybe he would save himself again, in which case she would forgive him for those words yesterday Now, she has always felt that she is a very tolerant girl, not to mention that she likes him so much.

Then the door opened, and yesterday afternoon the tall, blond woman appeared in front of her. The girl was simply wearing a pink silk pajamas. The imprints held up by the moon showed that there was nothing else inside. Two smooth and round long legs, anyone can see this situation, she must have lived here last night.

Good morning, Miss Wilson, Eric is just taking a shower, what's the matter with you? Claudia gestured for Caroline to come in politely. It shows that she is a very smart woman and never takes the initiative to ask about other women around Eric.

Caroline stood in front of Claudia, who was much taller than herself, shrinking her neck in inferiority, resisting the sourness in her heart, lightly twitched her little nose, and said in a low voice, Miss Schiffer. , I'm just here to say goodbye to Eric, please tell him that I'm back in London.

After the girl finished speaking, without waiting for Claudia to reply, she walked towards the elevator in a hurry.

Claudia glanced at the girl's lost back. He walked back to the guest room, knocked on the bathroom door, and told Eric what had just happened.

Caroline walked out of the hotel and was standing on the side of the road preparing to stop a taxi when she heard a voice calling her from behind, and turned to look, Eric had already chased after him.

Eric came to stand beside the girl. He breathed a sigh of relief and buttoned the last two buttons of his shirt. Said: Caroline, I'll take you to the airport later, I don't worry about you being a girl.

When the girl listened to Eric's words, she felt a little moved at first, but immediately turned her back in a fit of anger: No need, Eric, you'd better... go back to accompany Miss Schiffer, I can go back by myself.

Eric buttoned up his shirt, ignoring what Caroline just said. Take the girl's small luggage: Let's go,

I'll let someone help you buy a plane ticket. Now it's better to have breakfast first, not breakfast.

After Eric finished speaking, seeing that Caroline was still pursing her thin pink lips and motionless, she had to resort to a trick, reaching out and holding the girl's little hand. Walk towards the hotel.

The moment she was pulled by Eric's warm and rough hand, Caroline's resistance disappeared completely. She lowered her head and blushed, quietly following Eric like an obedient baby. around.

After breakfast, Eric and Caroline took the hotel car to Berlin Schönefeld Airport. He helped the girl to get the ticket, and contacted Rachel who was in London to pick up the plane when the time came. She stayed with the girl until the flight to London started boarding, and Eric watched Caroline walk up the boarding passage with confidence. .

Hearing the sound of the door being opened, Claudia, who was leaning on the sofa in the living room to watch TV, propped herself up against the back of the sofa and looked at Eric: Send away?

Eric nodded slightly and came over to stop the girl's slender waist from leaning on the sofa.

Claudia felt Eric's feeling a little lost, and couldn't help but say, Since you like her too. Why did you let her leave?

Because I'm a good person, Eric shook his head mockingly. Seeing the little girl in his arms couldn't help rolling his eyes, he said, Do you know who she is?

How can you not know, the only daughter of Earl Wilson of Berkshire, I heard about it when I was in Hollywood last month. The newspapers were everywhere saying that you were planning to marry each other. When I came here yesterday, I was afraid You're going to drive me away because I'm a commoner.

Eric squeezed lightly on Claudia's soft waist: Okay, stop teasing me, have you eaten breakfast yet?

Of course, Claudia smiled and rubbed into Eric's arms: I'm going out to play today, and I can also be your tour guide.

As soon as Caroline was sent away, she immediately brought another girl to the public. Eric himself had no concerns, but if it appeared in the newspaper, it would definitely embarrass Caroline and her family. Eric planned to Rejected, thought about it, and pulled out a travel album from a pile of magazines under the coffee table. After flipping through it for a while, he said, Let's go to other cities, so that we can get rid of the paparazzi, how about Prague?

Claudia also put her head together. Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic, only more than 200 kilometers away from Berlin, but the girl shook her head and said, I need a visa to go to Prague, although the tourist visa is very fast, but today There's no way we're going anywhere.

Eric also reacted, and now the European Union has only been established for two years, with only six member states. After drawing his finger on the map for a while, Eric picked the Netherlands, which is also a member of the European Union: Then go to Amsterdam.

Okay, I'm going to change my clothes and call my agent by the way, he's helping me negotiate an endorsement contract in Paris, Claudia stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

Eric hastily flipped through a travel book and walked into the bedroom. Claudia had already changed and was standing at the table, taking out her mobile phone and address book from her Chanel bag to find it. number.

Eric glanced at Claudia casually, and was about to walk towards the wardrobe, but was caught by the mobile phone in her hand.

Claudia had just found the agent's temporary number, and was about to call when she felt Eric come behind her, reached out and took her mobile phone, and put her arms around her waist.

Claudia thought that Eric was suddenly interested, and turned her head and glared at him with some anger. Just as she was about to take the initiative to lie on the big table, she found that Eric was carefully playing with her mobile phone. .

Claudia blushed for what she had just thought, and turned her body to face Eric: Is there any problem?

Eric holds the mobile phone in his hand. Apologetically, he leaned in front of Claudia and kissed her curved lips: Sorry, baby, we may not be able to go to Amsterdam, but maybe in a few days, I can take you to Finland.

What, Claudia asked in confusion.

Eric pointed to the prominent ' ' logo on the mobile phone: This mobile phone is from Finland.

Claudia still had a confused expression, but Eric was a little excited. He has been thinking about Apple, but ignored before the emergence of the iPhone. Nokia, which dominates more than 40% of the global mobile phone market, is also a giant with the highest market value of more than 200 billion US dollars.

Moreover, in the original time and space, Apple only started to rise slowly in 2007, which is too far from now, while the rapid development of Nokia is something that will happen in recent years. Another huge fortune.

...

Rachel sat in the waiting hall of Heathrow Airport, somewhat helplessly listening to the chatter of an approacher beside her. Staring at the entrance and exit not far away, Rachael was relieved until a familiar figure appeared in the field of vision, stood up and said to a handsome young man next to him: Sorry, Mr. Luke, I Girlfriend is back.

Rachel deliberately increased her tone on girlfriend and ignored the surprised expression of the young man. Go straight to Caroline.

After approaching, Rachel realized that Caroline was different. The girl's sharp white and tender face lost the aura of the past, her thin lips were pursed into a line, her eyelashes were drooping, and her beautiful blonde hair was fluffy and slightly curly. At this time, it slumped softly. Every strand looks so listless, and the little person floats in the crowd, giving people the feeling of a poor cat that has just been abandoned by its owner and has been drenched in heavy rain.

Caroline, what's the matter with you? Rachel stepped forward and asked with concern.

Caroline looked up and saw that it was Rachel, her lip line collapsed immediately, and her eyes were red as she fell into Rachel's arms: woohoo. woohoo, Rachel, he... he refused. I am.

Rachel, who had thought that something big had happened, was relieved when she heard Caroline's words, but she also knew that this was definitely a big time for this little girl who was just beginning to love. So Rachel hugged the girl tightly, patted her back and comforted: Okay, don't cry, I told you long ago, Eric Williams is a playboy, You were...

Woo, he's not, the girl retorted, sobbing.

Rachel was a little helpless, but she had to follow the girl in her arms: Okay, he's not.

Woohoo, he's a badass, the girl said quickly again.

Well, he's a badass, Rachel said cooperatively.

Caroline leaned against Rachel's arms and cried for a while, before finally stopping her sob and said softly, Rachel, I miss mom.

Rachel wiped her face for the girl, hung her backpack on her shoulders, took Caroline's little hand and walked out: Come on, I'll take you home.

Caroline followed Rachel obediently until the two left the airport lobby, and suddenly muttered, He took my hand.

Rachel took out the key, opened the door of his large-displacement Jaguar King, and tucked the girl into the co-pilot before saying, I know, today's Daily Mail has a photo.

Caroline looked at Rachel nervously: So, what did they say?

Whatever they do, the Daily Mail is a gossip tabloid that loves bullshit.

As Rachel said, she started the car and turned around on the highway. Caroline saw her habitually wanting to slam on the accelerator, so she didn't bother to ask, and quickly put on her seat belt, saying, Rachel, drive slowly. Okay, it's too dangerous.

Okay, baby, I'll listen to you today, Rachel lowered her speed. She had visited Caroline's manor a few times, so she didn't need the girl's directions. Drive northwest at high speed.

After the speed stabilized, Rachel cautiously probed, Does it feel better? Would you like to tell me what happened?

After a while of silence, Caroline said softly, He suddenly said yesterday that we are not suitable.

Seeing that the girl threw out such a sentence, Rachel didn't speak again. She couldn't help but sighed and didn't ask any more questions. She knew that Caroline still had a deep affection for Eric, and she must have concealed something for him at this time, however. Rachel also knows that although this girl is a little weak, she sometimes likes to be sharp. Eight cows can't pull back the things that they are looking for.

The Jaguar King passed Windsor Town and walked more than ten kilometers before arriving at Wilson Manor, which is located next to a tributary of the Thames River.

The doorman of the manor saw the car parked outside the gate, and went forward to ask a few questions, when he saw the window rolled down, revealing his young lady's obviously haggard face: Mark, it's me.

Miss, you're finally back, and Madam mentioned you in the morning. I'll inform Madam right now, oh, I'll open the door for you first, the middle-aged man named Mark greeted Caroline respectfully, and hurriedly opened the door The big iron gate of the manor opened, and he walked into the security booth and picked up the phone.

Although not the first time to visit here, but driving through the long corridors of Wilson Manor. Looking at the large manor with dozens of acres in front of him, Rachel still couldn't help feeling a little bit of admiration and envy. The British aristocracy has long since declined. The maintenance costs of traditional aristocratic manors and castles are extremely high, and because of the inheritance tax of up to 75% in the United Kingdom, it is difficult for most aristocrats with weak economic strength to maintain their ancestral properties. Donate to the castle. Or simply abandon it. The Earl of Wilson is one of the few aristocrats in England that has remained prosperous to this day.

The car stopped on the side of the road, and before Rachel got out of the car, she saw a graceful woman walking out of the castle with a few maids, and when she saw her mother, Caroline also hurriedly jumped. Get out of the car and run towards the woman.

Rachel got out of the car, opened the back door and just took out Caroline's luggage. A maid came over and took the backpack.

Mrs. Wilson also came over with her daughter at this time, reached out to Rachel and said, Miss Weisz, thank you for taking care of Caroline during this time.

You're welcome, Mrs. Wilson, Caroline is my good friend, and this is what I should do, Rachel replied politely. The British's awe of the aristocracy is almost deeply embedded in their bones. Rachel can Getting along well with Caroline is mainly because the girl's pure character conceals the sense of distance brought about by the noble manners she has cultivated since childhood. However, in the face of Mrs. Wilson, Rachel always felt a little restrained and couldn't wait to get along. Planning to leave: Ma'am, since Caroline has arrived home safely, I think I should go back to London. I have some things to do in the afternoon.

If it's not a serious matter, let's stay for lunch, Mrs. Wilson still had a gentle smile and made a gentle gesture of invitation, while Caroline stepped forward and pulled Rachel directly: Stay here, Rachel, we were on the phone the night before, and I know you'll be fine this afternoon.

Rachel was punctured on the spot, and her cheeks were slightly hot, and she really wanted to reach out and squeeze this silly girl's face. Looking at Mrs. Wilson, whose smile did not change at all, Rachael could only nod slightly: Then I'm sorry.

Hearing Rachel's agreement, Caroline couldn't wait to pull her towards the castle, and Mrs. Wilson, who was following her daughter, said at this moment: Caroline, go and say hello to your father first, he is in the room. .

I see, Mom.

Also, Matthew and Robert will come back for dinner at noon, and the little guy will come too.

Caroline asked in surprise: What about Charles?

He went to New York a week ago, Mrs. Wilson looked at her daughter dotingly. Your sister is so incompetent that you don't even know where your brother is.

Caroline stuck out her tongue coquettishly, but quickly retracted it under Mrs. Wilson's stare.

Rachel, who was following them, only felt her scalp go numb. Because of Caroline's chatty nature, she knew the situation of Earl Wilson's house very well. The current Earl James Wilson has three sons and one daughter. It was the mother and daughter who mentioned those three people just now. Caroline is the youngest child in the family. Although Countess Edith Wilson looks like she is in her forties, she is only well-maintained because of her actual age. It is much older. Her eldest son Matthew and second son Robert are both married and have children. Only Charles, who is four years older than Caroline, is still single, but it is said that he is also engaged.

Listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter, the people of this big family were about to gather at noon. Thinking of this, Rachel felt more uncomfortable, and it turned out that her uneasy feeling was not wrong at all.

As noon approached, there were more and more people in Earl Wilson's castle. The host's two sons brought his wife and children, as well as several waves of other guests, which made Rachel feel a strong sense of escape. Fortunately, Thoughtfully, the countess seemed to feel Rachel's emotions. Just after lunch, she whispered a few words to her daughter, and Caroline took Rachel back to her room. (To be continued.
