Chapter 469 Gossip and Gossip
Ronald couldn't watch the girl cry, he went to the front and picked up a disposable cup, took a cup of coffee, walked over and patted Susan Eakins on the shoulder, and handed it over.

Susan was terrified. Even in Los Angeles, one of the most open cities in America, a woman who intentionally destroys a celebrity's family will cause criticism from society and public opinion.And her father and Weintraub are friends of the same generation, which is even more controversial.

Jane Morgan was a famous singer, and if the gossip papers had reported it (as they certainly would), she would have been a villain for everyone.

She took the coffee and wiped away her tears, "I, I, Ronald, I didn't mean to destroy Jerry and Jane's family. I just like Jerry and I want to be with him."

Ronald comforted her softly, "It's okay, I know you are a good girl."

"Alas..." Susan hugged Ronald's shoulders and cried out.

Ronald took her to the lounge next to him and asked his assistant to take care of her.

Susan looked up at Ronald, "Can you help me see Jerry? If he... I can quit..."

"Poor woman..." Ronald thought to himself, nodded and went out to find Weintraub.

Associate producer Charles Okun was in his seat, watching all this with cold eyes.After seeing Ronald going out, he also got up and followed slowly to watch the fun.

Jane Morgan walked out of the screening room quickly, and her steps gradually slowed down.

Weintraub, who turned out to be her agent, called Jane Morgan at the hotel early one morning and asked her to come down to discuss a matter of life and death.When Jane Morgan went down, Weintraub wooed her on the spot, and half an hour later they were in the same bed.

So Jane Morgan knew exactly what kind of horny her husband was, and this time she hooked up with her secretary Susan.

She walked deliberately slowly to give Weintraub a chance to catch up.

"Jane, I'm sorry." Weintraub rushed forward and grabbed Jane Morgan's shoulders with both hands.

Jane Morgan held out her hand to him. "Here!"

"What?" Weintraub asked inexplicably.

"One million dollars, we said, you fuck around out there, just pay me a million dollar check."

Weintraub was very embarrassed. He didn't expect that at this age, he would be forced into such embarrassment by Jane Morgan.There is a high probability that Jane Morgan is not joking, but people will think she is joking when she says it out.The more this happened, the more embarrassing he became.

"Come on, Jane."

"As I said, if you want to play with these young and beautiful girls outside, I will make you bear the price. I just didn't expect that your taste has deteriorated."

Jane Morgan thought of the blond chick who was swimming at home last time, the so-called Ronald's girlfriend, who was much better than Susan Akins in terms of body and face.And Susan was just a fat, regular redheaded girl.

"I don't allow you to say that about her, you can punish me, Jane! But Susan is innocent." Hearing this, Weintraub became angry and refuted Jane Morgan face to face.

"What?" Jane Morgan looked shocked.

"Don't say that about Susan, I love her. Let's get a divorce." Weintraub said the word divorce painfully.When he snatched Jane Morgan from her ex-husband back then, he didn't expect to come to this point.

"You!" Jane Morgan didn't expect Weintraub to be serious, and suddenly her blood surged and she was dizzy. She walked slowly towards the wall and stretched out her hand to hold it.

Weintraub didn't see all this, he had already turned back and walked back to the projection room, looking for Susan.

Ronald came out just in time to see Weintraub blurt out the word divorce.Seeing Jane Morgan holding on to the wall, he hurried forward and gently supported her.

"Jane? Ms. Morgan? Are you all right?"

"No, I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy, thank you." Jane Morgan is a big singer, and quickly recovered her demeanor. She patted Ronald's arm and motioned for him to help her to sit on the bench at the door .

"I think Mr. Weintraub was just impatient for a while. When he calms down, he will..." Ronald saw that Jane Morgan seemed to have been hit hard, and his whole person's temperament was quite depressed, so he quickly comforted him.

"No, I know Jerry. He is a man who acts on instinct." Jane Morgan looked at Ronald, and suddenly had the desire to confide.

"He is a Jew from a low-level background. When he was my agent, he acted on instinct. I also fell in love with him at first sight, so I divorced my ex-husband and stayed with him."

Ronald had no choice but to sit down and listen to Jane Morgan's words. This famous singer is so pitiful that he lost his marriage and love at this age, and then all the old things were turned up and hyped by the gossip newspapers. It's not a joke For play.

"I will promise him. When I married him, I said that one day he has a new lover, and he must tell me. I just didn't expect that this day would really come."

"Ms. Morgan," Ronald saw what happened to her, and felt that she was more pitiful than Susan in it, "I remember when I met you last time, I talked about the past of Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor , You told me that if you were you, you would never be as weak as Reynolds and give up your husband to other women."

"Huh?" Jane Morgan seemed to come alive again when she heard this, "I said it, and you are right."

She pondered for a moment and said to Ronald, "I will wait for him here, please go back and tell Jerry that when I die, I want to keep the title of Mrs. Weintraub on the tombstone."

"Okay," Ronald thought, and he became a mouthpiece between the three of them.

"As for Susan, I can pretend I can't see her. He is not allowed to bring her to my house. And Christmas, Thanksgiving, my birthday, our wedding anniversary..."

When she said this, Jane Morgan's voice trembled, "On Memorial Day, these days, he must go home and be with the children."

Ronald walked back again, and when he opened the door, he saw the deputy producer Charles Okun standing by the door, "Where did Weintraub go?"

Charles Okun pointed in the direction of the lounge where Susan was.Seeing him walking that way, he began to think about how he could benefit from this matter.

"Dangdang" Ronald knocked on the door of the lounge, pushed the door open and entered.

Weintraub was sitting on the sofa, talking with his arms around Susan, "Honey, I have a showdown with Jane, and I will divorce her."

"No, don't do this, it's my fault, I shouldn't fall in love with you, Jerry." Susan comforted Weintraub in turn.

"Ahem..." Ronald cleared his throat, "Mr. Weintraub, Jane asked me to bring you a few words..."

Weintraub patted Susan's hand, got up and went to Ronald, "What did Jane say?"

"She said that after her death, the title of Mrs. Weintraub would still be engraved on the tombstone."

This is not agreeing to the divorce, and you are going to die with yourself?Weintraub clenches his fists. He is a man who is willing to face challenges, whether it is music business, film career, or his personal life.

"It's not good for us..." Weintraub squeezed out a sentence.

"No, I think it's a good thing for the three of you." Ronald still had a few words to convey, and he gave Weintraub a reassurance first.

"Which side are you on? Don't forget that I hired you, and Susan kept saying good things about you." Weintraub didn't understand what Ronald meant. He thought that Ronald was a young man, To teach him about his private life.

The deputy producer Charles Okun, who was standing outside the door, heard Weintraub's raised voice and walked out contentedly.You can contact your partner immediately.

Now that Weintraub has already become dissatisfied with Ronald, he only needs to collect Ronald's "crimes" as planned, and tell Weintraub together with the samples by the weekend.Two days, Saturday and Sunday, was enough for Weintraub to fire Ronald and replace him with himself and his partner.

He found a phone and dialed a number. "Hey, Michael, you can get ready for action. That kid and Weintraub had a falling out. He's over his head."

The voice of Michael Cimino came over the phone, "You have done a good job, I will not treat you badly, and I will allocate a special budget for you to use as props and vehicles, and then I will set aside enough The money to buy..." As he spoke, Cimino repeatedly blew his nose on the phone.

"Very well, you remember to be more sober these two days, we are going to find fault with his samples."

"Don't worry, that kid only knows how to make exploitation films, and he knows shitty film art."

……

"I still haven't finished talking," Ronald couldn't laugh or cry when he heard Weintraub's questioning.He pushed Weintraub aside, "Jane said that as long as you don't bring Susan home, you must spend a few reunion festivals with her..."

"Oh? What did you say to her?" Weintraub was surprised when he heard Ronald's message.It was a great concession, and it was not known why Jane Morgan would make such a concession.

"I just repeated what she said." Ronald repeated what he had said to persuade Jane Morgan.

"I owe you once," Weintraub patted Ronald's shoulder heavily, "I have a lot of things to do in the future, so I won't be on set for a few days. You manage all the shooting yourself, probably I can spare some time on weekends, and we can watch samples together."

Weintraub returned to his true colors as a tycoon, called his assistant, and took Susan home first.Then went out to find Jane Morgan, and negotiated with her home first.

When he was walking out of the gate, the associate producer Charles Okun ran over to him and said, "Jerry, when will we see the dailies? You asked me to pay attention to the quality of the dailies. I think there are still many problems. When will Talk to Cimino?"

"It's the weekend, I guess I'll be free by then." Weintraub didn't think about it at all, and after throwing out a time, he walked out of the screening room and found Jane Morgan.Then I chatted with her, then stood up, supported Jane Morgan, and the two found the driver and went home together.

Ronald stared at the assistants, put away the samples, picked up tomorrow's notice, and drove the Saab 900 home.

On the second day, some students of the Cobra Dojo saw Daniel playing football with Johnny's ex-girlfriend intimately, and then they smashed Ali's loudspeaker tape recorder and beat up Daniel who came to complain. play.

While thinking about the shooting of these shots in his mind, Ronald's phone rang.

"Hi, it's me, Ronald."

"Ronnie, it's me, Brooke. Finally got through to you. I'm going to send a clarification on that gossip."

"What gossip?" Ronald hadn't reacted yet.

"Ronald, it's me, Terry." Brooke's mother answered the phone, "When you sent Brooke back to Princeton that day, you were photographed by the paparazzi and published in today's 'National Enquirer' Come on. Don't you see?

Oh, you're shooting a movie?I'm going to give Brooke an interview with those reporters outside Princeton tomorrow and deny that you two are a couple.

Every time Brooke shoots a movie, there are actors who want to join in and borrow Brooke's popularity. 'Endless Love', 'Blue Coral Reef', every time the actor is like this, every time I have to take the initiative to ask the reporter to clarify.Brooke's a little girl now, and she's not ready for these gossips, you know? "

"Okay, can you deal with it? Do you need me to do anything?" Ronald heard Terry's words, implying that he was just rubbing the heat, and a tiredness came to his heart.

"There may also be reporters looking for you, as long as we follow our unified statement."

After Terry explained, Brooke answered the phone again, "Ronnie, I'm sorry, it was an accident. It was dark that day, so I didn't notice it. From the photo, they used a telephoto lens. filmed at the place."

"It's okay, you're America's sweetheart. Things are arranged by your mother." Ronald wanted to hang up the phone.

"Wait, Ronnie. I...I want to wait until spring break, when you come to New York, so we can meet again."

Brooke Shields puts an accent on the word "spring break."
