Chapter 1059 Unprofessional

After coaxing her softly for a long time, Caroline finally fell asleep.

Eric left the girl's bedroom lightly, closed the door, put back a pair of scissors found in the kitchen, and left the apartment.

Perhaps because of the late night, the street lights on both sides of the road in the resort looked a little lethargic, and the air was a bit cooler. The noise on the other side of the banquet hall was much quieter, and some people may have begun to rest. Eric didn't mean to show up in the past, but walked to his residence.

The resort is divided into three parts, the main building area is separated by a wide north-south concrete corridor, the east is the accommodation area, the west is the activity area, and the banquet hall is on the other side of the activity area. The remaining part is a golf course on the other side of the accommodation area.

Eric's residence is behind Caroline's row of apartments. It is a single-storey building exactly like the other apartments in the resort. The house looks a little low, and you can reach out and touch the extended eaves of the roof. Since Phoenix is ​​full of Gobi desert areas, this is also a common architectural style in Phoenix for wind and sand protection.

The crew originally only planned to stay in Phoenix for a week, and Eric did not have any special requirements for the accommodation. The only thing that satisfies him is that these buildings are all masonry structures, not the wood-panelled houses common in American dwellings. Although Eric rarely has the chance to live in a wooden house now, but just thinking about it, he always feels that it makes people feel insecure.

Turning to the apartment in the back row, Eric took out his pocket and found the key as he walked. As soon as he looked up, he noticed that a small red dot flashed under the eaves of the apartment next door.

Looking carefully, Jodie Foster was sitting alone on a rattan chair under the eaves, wearing a black jacket and loose men's washed jeans, with her legs crossed and a cigarette in her hand. Looking at himself with interest.

Eric came over, sat down on another rattan chair next to him, and said hello, "Why are you sitting here alone, where is your assistant?"

"I was cheated by a guy at the party," Judy said in a relaxed tone. Seeing Eric sitting down on the other side, she said, "How about you, how about Carly?"

"I fell asleep," Eric said. "By the way, about this, I will take Carly back to Los Angeles tomorrow, so I can't play with everyone in Arizona."

In order to reward all the crew members who had previously worked in the dimly lit studio for several months,

"Arizona is no fun at all. I heard them at the party saying they were going to Mexico or Las Vegas," Judy put the cigarette in her hand and took another puff, exhaling the smoke, and another One hand picked up the cigarette case on the small table next to it and handed it over, "Do you want it?"

Eric felt that Judy's mood at this time was a bit strange, not to say low, but obviously not very interested, and his attitude towards himself was also indifferent. With a smile, he pulled one out of the cigarette case and lit it, and Eric said, "What's the matter with you?"

Judy asked back, "What's wrong?"

"I feel something is wrong with your emotions, haven't you come out of your role yet?"

"No, I'm just thinking about men."

"Well, puff, cough, cough..." Eric choked out all the smoke he had just inhaled into his lungs, coughed for a while, and then recovered his strength and looked at Judy next to him again: "You are here, think man?"

Judy glanced at Eric with contempt: "I was just thinking about men."

"Oh, I understand," Eric nodded and said, "Then do you want to understand?"

Judy shook her head: "No."

Eric tentatively said: "Or, tell me, and I will help you think about it. Now, as a man, I must have more experience than you."

"Okay," Judy nodded, gave Eric a sidelong glance, and said, "Why do men like half-hearted so much, and even suddenly turn to another woman without warning in the process of chasing one woman?"

Eric with a cigarette in his hand,

He solemnly pondered for a moment and said, "From a psychological point of view, this man may be trying to arouse women's jealousy in order to achieve his ulterior purpose; from a biological point of view, this is a man's gene transfer. It is the nature of the continuation; according to the perspective of probability, this man may be to increase the success rate of his pursuit of women; according to the perspective of physics..."

Eric was going to continue talking nonsense, but suddenly he felt a small hand grabbing him, pulling him by the collar and pulling him all over.

The cool and thin lips with a faint smell of smoke were printed, Eric was stunned for a moment, adjusted his posture a little, and was about to take the initiative, but the little hand that was pulling his collar suddenly loosened.

Looking at Judy, who was sitting back on the ground as if nothing had happened, Eric weakly said, "This, am I being molested?"

Judy nodded: "Forget it, little man, you can run back to your house crying."

"Judy, you are not good, very unprofessional."

"What should a professional look like?"

"It should be like this," Eric got up, walked over, snatched the still burning cigarette in Judy's hand and threw it aside, stretched out his hand to pick up the woman's light body, pushed open the door behind them, and walked in.

Being carried by Eric on his shoulders, Judy seemed to be stunned for a moment, before he realized that he leaned on his shoulder and asked coldly, "Eric, what are you doing?"

"Shut up, where is your bedroom?"

"..."

"Um?"

Judy said with a bit of anger in her tone: "You told me to shut up."

Eric casually threw the woman on the sofa in the living room, turned around and turned off the light: "If that's the case, then let's be here."

Judy leaned on the sofa, unconsciously took a pillow and held it in front of her, looking at the figure walking in the dark, with a little trembling in her tone and a faint expectation, she whispered: "Eric? Williams, you're an asshole."

...

Eric still woke up in his bedroom the next morning.

A certain ruthless lace was clearly satisfied afterwards, but claimed that he could not imagine a scene of waking up with a man beside him, so he threw him out mercilessly.

After Eric got up, he went to see Caroline, took the girl to the restaurant for breakfast, and returned to his apartment again. Judy was already sitting on the wicker chair under the eaves again, with her legs crossed and her hands in her hands. Holding a book, he looked very leisurely, and there was an empty dinner plate on the small table next to him, obviously he had just had breakfast.

Eric walked over again, sat down on the other side, and said, "Morning."

Judy looked away from the book, as if nothing had happened, and greeted with a smile: "Morning."

"What book are you reading?"

""With the wind"."

"Oh, a very interesting book."

"you saw it?"

"Yeah," Eric nodded and said, "I often think that Americans are so happy. Since the founding of the country, the mainland has only experienced such a large-scale war between the North and the South, and then they bully others as much as they want."

"The way you think about things is really special," Judy said with a smile on the corner of her mouth. "I thought you would comment on the women in the book."

"This, there's really nothing to comment on, it's just a group of pity girls."

"Pity?" Judy's expression was obviously disapproved, and she seemed a little reluctant to say: "Do you think Hao Scarlett is also pitiful?"

Eric stared at Judy's slightly heroic eyes and asked, "Do you know how old Scarlett Hao is when this book ends?"

Although she had read it several times, Judy did not have the unforgettable ability of Caroline, and did not pay much attention to this detail. She subconsciously wanted to open the book, but in Eric's eyes, she still directly Shaking his head: "I don't know."

"Twenty-eight," Eric said, "for women today, 28 is the age when they're full of vigor, maybe they've just become a married, happy little woman, or they've just started working and ambitiously trying to become A strong woman in the workplace, or some people are still enjoying campus life in an ivory tower. However, at the age of 28, Sijia Hao has experienced joys and sorrows that many people may not be able to meet in their entire lives. So I don't like Reid, he always He is the one who claims to know Hao Scarlett best, but from the beginning to the end, he just stared at Hao Scarlett's so-called selfish and greedy side, and then gave Hao Scarlett's so-called love as a charity. He didn't understand at all, when they first met, She is just a pampered little girl, and arrogance is inevitable. When she meets again, she is a little woman who has to carry many livelihoods on her shoulders. In order to find a sense of security that completely collapses in her heart, she must not Don't become more aggressive, more selfish."

Judy has always liked this book in her hands. For Scarlett Hao, like many people, she likes her independent and strong side, and hates her selfish and greedy personality. At this time, it was the first time Judy heard such a different understanding from Eric's mouth.

She suddenly thought of herself and began to face the camera at the age of three. Although she is only 36 years old this year, she has an acting career that may exceed most Hollywood actors in their entire lives, and she has also experienced too many things.

This man's words are not implying anything to himself. Damn, I don't want to be flattered by this guy's inexplicable words.

Feeling that Eric was still staring at him, Judy turned her face away from Eric's gaze, pouted, and said with some resentment, "No wonder you are so good at coaxing women."

Eric looked at the woman with a little panic in her expression, smiled, leaned over with his arms on the table next to him, and said, "Hey, I'll be leaving first."

"Yeah, send your little assistant back to Los Angeles, I know."

"So, when parting, a courtesy kiss shouldn't be too much, right?"

Just as Judy was about to say that you were beautiful, seeing the expectant expression on the face of the little man beside her, she suddenly couldn't bear to refuse. The thief looked left and right with a guilty conscience. A strong arm stretched out, hugged her body arrogantly, and subconsciously struggled, Judy quickly softened, and her eyes narrowed to feel the man's unbridled attack.

After a while, the door behind the two was opened, and Judy's assistant came out with a pot of coffee. Seeing the scene in front of him, his eyes suddenly widened, and the tray in his hand fell to the ground. The coffee pot, Mugs, sugar cubes and the like were scattered all over the place. In response, the little assistant raised his hand to cover his face, and shouted loudly, "Oh my God, my eyes, what happened!"

Eric had to let go of Judy, who was already a little confused, looked at the startled assistant helplessly, and said to Judy, "I won't be responsible for her eyes, right?"

Judy also woke up, remembering Eric's arrogance just now, Mei Mu glared at him fiercely, but her tone was a little soft: "You go first, I won't send you off later."

...

In order to avoid road bumps, Eric took Caroline directly back to Los Angeles by helicopter.

At eleven o'clock in the morning, the vh-60 landed on the apron of the Jiaojiao Manor, and many people rushed over. Yesterday, the news of the accident in the crew was still fermenting in the media. Although everyone has already understood the details of the incident, it is necessary to take a look at it in person to be at ease.

Eric and Katzenberg, Amy Pascal and Bill Michanick and other senior executives of the Firefly System greeted each other one by one, and after a while, they let everyone into the villa for a short rest, and then ordered the girl to give Everyone was preparing for lunch, and then they looked at Rachel Weisz and Melanie Gleeson, who were chatting with Caroline: "Why are you two here?"

Rachel squatted beside Caroline's wheelchair and pointed to the girl's splinted ankle: "You're too embarrassed to say it."

Before Eric could speak, Caroline couldn't help but said, "Rachel, this is just an accident."

Rachel touched Caroline's delicate face with pity, and said, "Go to my place in the afternoon, it happens that I will be in Los Angeles at the end of the year, and I can just take care of you," Rachel said, and said to Eric again. : "So, capitalist, Carly shouldn't be exploited by you anymore, right?"

Eric nodded with some reason: "Well, you can rest for as long as you want."

Rachel was very satisfied with Eric's answer, got up and pushed Caroline's wheelchair and walked towards the villa.

Eric and Melanie followed behind them and asked, "How is the job at Firefly?"

Melanie nodded and said, "It's okay, I just need to travel frequently."

Although not particularly concerned, Eric also heard from Caroline that Melanie had broken up with her boyfriend who was about to get married, probably because of work. Eric didn't know if he should comfort Melanie, so he could only say: "Wait for another year or two to stabilize in Europe. Then, if you want to change a position, you can tell me."

Melanie just smiled and replied, she was very satisfied with her current job. For this reason, some sacrifices in personal life are also worthwhile in her opinion. After all, as soon as she joined the company, she became the first-level department vice president of a large company with unlimited growth potential, which is a lifetime for most women in the workplace. Unreachable heights, but for her it was just a starting point. If you get it, you must pay.
