Chapter 485 Mascot

readx(); Southampton not only refers to a football club in the UK, but also the name of a famous town in the northern part of Long Island, New York. Compared with the Upper East Side of Manhattan, which is talked about by the world, Southampton's reputation seems to be not the same It's not too conspicuous, but someone has made a statistic that the average worth of residents in this beautiful town near the Atlantic Ocean is more than one million US dollars. In Fitzgerald's book "The Great Gatsby", the male The prototype of the luxury mansion of the protagonist Gatsby is near this town.

In the early morning, in a mansion connected to the white sand beach in the town, Joanna stood in front of the bathroom sink, staring blankly at the little thing with two red lines in her hand, feeling a little overwhelmed for a while.

I don't know how long I was in a daze, there was a few knocks on the door, and Virginia's surprised voice came in: "Joan, Joan, come out, I'm pregnant!"

Joanna threw the pregnancy test stick into the trash can in a panic, straightened her messy hair in front of the mirror, and then walked out of the bathroom to open the door.

Virginia at the door was wearing pajamas, her hair was a little messy, but her face was radiant. Holding a white pregnancy test stick in her hand, she said excitedly, "Two, finally two, look."

Joanna took a look and didn't know how to react for a while, so she had to cheer up: "Congratulations, Vicky, but when are you going to tell Eric."

Hearing this question, Virginia suddenly felt a little stunned. Although she had planned very well at the beginning, Virginia was still worried about Eric's reaction when things came to an end.

"I, how about that... Joan, can you test Eric's reaction for me first?" Virginia blinked and said a little nervously.

Joanna immediately refused: "I don't do this kind of thing, otherwise Eric will think I'm pregnant."

Virginia seemed inspired: "Yeah, that's it, Joan, you call Eric now and say you're pregnant. See how he reacts, and if he's... angry, just tell He's a prank, hee hee. I'm such a genius, that's all."

Virginia said, reaching out to hold Joanna and going downstairs to make a call. Joanna, who was dragged downstairs, was completely shocked. The key was that she was pregnant.

"I'll dial for you, remember. Don't tell me about it," Virginia picked up the phone and was about to dial when Joanna immediately held Virginia's little hand: "Vicky, now It should be one o'clock in the morning in Hawaii, right?"

"I forgot about this, he must have just fallen asleep, and if he is woken up at this time, his temper will definitely be worse,

Virginia put down the microphone and counted with her fingers. "

Joanna breathed a sigh of relief. He shook his head resolutely and said, "Also, Vicky, I will never do this 'prank' for you, I have to test yourself."

Virginia immediately showed a pitiful look: "Joan, how can you do this, we are good sisters, you won't even help me with this."

"It's not like this," Joanna said helplessly: "I mean, you still have to tell Eric sooner or later, I think. I think... Maybe the longer you hide it, the more angry he will be, so you might as well tell him directly ."

"But what if he doesn't want the child?" Virginia asked worriedly.

Joanna's heart tightened slightly when she heard this. Subconsciously, he wanted to touch his lower abdomen, but he quickly suppressed the urge and said, "If he doesn't want it, then we will give birth to the child by ourselves. We, we are not unable to support it."

Virginia thought about it. Slowly rubbing up to Joanna's side and hugging her waist, as if seeking comfort: "Then we can agree, let's bring it up together."

Joanna patted Virginia soothingly and said, "Don't be so pessimistic, maybe he likes it very much."

"It's strange that he likes it. Didn't I tell you long ago that a big boy his age hates children the most."

"But you always have to face it, don't you, think about it, I'll go make breakfast for you," Joanna patted Virginia on the back again, got up from the sofa, and went to the kitchen , opened the refrigerator door to block her figure, Joanna glanced at Virginia in a daze in the living room, and felt a little guilty. Before learning Eric's reaction, she did not plan to tell Victoria that she was also pregnant. Genia, she is more than Virginia and afraid that Eric will reject the child in her belly. In just a few minutes, Joanna has made up her mind. If Eric reacts too much, she will leave temporarily. America, secretly find a place to give birth to a child,

Half an hour later, when breakfast was brought to the table, Virginia seemed to have adjusted her mood and sat down at the table: "I just called to book a private doctor, and I will go for an examination in the morning, hey, no matter what that bastard does The reaction, anyway, I have to give birth to this little thing in my stomach."

Joanna shared breakfast with Virginia, trying to keep her tone as casual as possible: "When are you going to tell him?"

"At least wait until he finishes Jurassic Park, and then find time to tell him."

Joanna also knew that this was a more suitable time. She lowered her head and ate a few mouthfuls of bread in silence. Joanna then remembered a very important question: "Vicky, what about your work?"

Virginia was slightly puzzled, and didn't understand why Joanna asked this question suddenly, but she still said: "I have arranged it a long time ago. Last time I cameo in the Fox action movie, you know, they will arrange it. It will be released at the end of the year, so I don’t have to participate in publicity. Kapoor is helping me negotiate a contract for a feature film. It is expected to start shooting next month. It will take about two months. Just be careful, no one will find me. Pregnant, the salary of these two films plus some money I saved before is enough for me to use for a long time, and after the filming, I can take a year or two to take care of the child.”

Joanna listened to Virginia's coherent plan and felt a little envious in her heart.

Because of the different growing environments, Virginia has learned to be independent since she was twelve years old. No matter the external environment is good or bad, Virginia can make her life appear orderly, while Joanna's own life trajectory is not It looked very messy and completely unplanned. For now, "Tornado" has not brought her much income. If she doesn't have children, she can use the fame brought by "Tornado" to accumulate a fortune in the next few years, but now, once the child The birth, and even the revelation of this news, is sure to have a big impact on her public image. If Eric rejects this kid again...

The anxiety about the future made Joanna more and more worried. After breakfast, while Virginia was changing clothes, Joanna picked up the phone in the living room and hurriedly dialed her manager's number: "Hello, Charlie , didn't you say last time that there is a movie from Universal that is suitable for me... Yes, I think next, but I have a few conditions... "

...

"...Joan, do you think I'm the kind of cautious person? As long as you think the script is suitable, I will definitely not object, but since it's a Universal project, Eisner can't be too stingy, how much did they give you? Remuneration... well, this figure is quite generous, when will the movie start... at the end of the month, what are you doing in such a hurry... oh, well... OK, I'll hang up, goodbye," Eric smiled after ending the call Shrugging, picked up the notebook and walked out of the room.

The time is already mid-August, the sixth week of the filming of "Jurassic Park". Although a tropical storm at the beginning of the month delayed the filming for a few days, the impact is still under control. If all goes well, Airi Gram can even close the film ahead of September 10th and rush to Paris to attend the opening ceremony of Euro Disneyland.

Eric thought about these things, and just walked to the hotel lobby, a thick middle-aged voice rang enthusiastically: "Hi, Eric, good morning."

"Morning, Donald, I've been in a meeting last night, I couldn't pick you up in person, I'm so sorry," Eric hugged Donald Trump, then looked at the shy man standing beside the middle-aged man. The girl, perhaps because she has entered the developmental period, has not seen each other for a year. Eleven-year-old Ivanka Trump has grown a lot, and transformed from a little loli into a slim and charming girl.

"Hi, Ini, do you still recognize me?"

The girl who heard this obviously had an expression of wanting to roll her eyes, but she still said politely like a little lady: "Hello, Eric."

The three walked into the restaurant together, ordered breakfast, and chatted with each other for a while. Ivanka, who had been silent for a while, said for the first time, "Eric, can I appear in the camera without holding the puppet this time?"

"Ah, but, Ini...I'm ready."

Ivanka finally couldn't help but rolled her eyes helplessly: "Eric, you are one of the most powerful directors in Hollywood, can you not do such childish things, I'm not the mascot in your movie."

"Yi Ni, first of all I have to thank you for your compliment, but it's not childish at all. After "Human Ghost" and "Tornado", the audience just noticed you, if you suddenly change your style at this time The image of a girl doesn't have that gimmick effect."

"Little girl with a puppet, this is so boring, my God, I would agree to do such a boring thing for a hundred dollars, Eric, will I give you that hundred dollars back?"

Eric said with a straight face: "Ini, it's not just a hundred dollars now. The airfare and accommodation for you and your father to and from Hawaii are all provided by the crew."

Ivanka looked at her father.

Donald Trump nodded with a 'heavy' expression on his face: "The two of us will cost at least five thousand dollars each, if you don't act..."

In the face of the unscrupulous father who colluded with Eric, Ivanka was immediately defeated. The girl even doubted her life. Was she really born in a billionaire's family?

A few hours later, Ivanka ended up holding a big dinosaur puppet and appeared in the joint scene when the programmer Dennis traded dinosaur embryos with people. (To be continued.)
