Hollywood Rhapsody

Sarah raised her head and looked at the man looking down on her. She had known her for so many years, but she felt that she was in front of a completely strange lunatic: "You have spent so long, so much thought... Ian? You are still the one I know Ian?"

"Of course, I can answer this question for you without hesitation. I am just Ian Mellon from the beginning to the end. But what about you? Who are you anyway?" Ian got closer to Sarah, and with those beautiful pair of The eyes look at each other, as if hoping to see the soul hidden inside through this window of the soul.

"Who am I? Is this an important question? How about doubting my origins? Accusing me of being a witch? Sending me to the scaffold and burning me alive?" Sarah tried to keep calm, and Ian's previous performance was indeed It calmed her down, made her flustered for a while, and completely confused.

But now, she instinctively avoids the topic of her own origin, trying to bring up Noah's custody rights again: "Does everything you point out have anything to do with Noah's custody rights? Are you going to slander me for being possessed by the devil, with this Such a ridiculous reason to snatch Noah away? I admit that your performance today completely shocked me, but then? Do you need me to applaud your quest results? Who would have thought that just discussing the ownership of custody with my son’s biological father, There are so many unexpected surprises involved!"

However, Ian didn't react at all. He still looked down at her, as if he was very proud of his achievements in exploring the secrets, and looked forward to Sarah's next reaction.

"Okay, what else do you want to hear? What do you need me to confess? OK! I'm actually a witch, you can find my hidden wand and crystal ball in my bedroom now, and I used magic opportunism to get my current wealth And fame, I can predict what movies will be popular in the future, and I can predict the danger in advance, so I can remind you to avoid the damn 9.11 terrorist attack... And you are not grateful at all, but proud of discovering my ultimate secret... ...Is this explanation satisfactory to you?"

Sarah was irritated by Ian's silent gaze. Apparently, seven years after she came to this world, she was suddenly suspected of her origin, which made her lose her proud calm. The biggest reason for such a bad situation is the deep sense of betrayal. Her biggest secret was revealed by her most trusted partner, which made her feel that she was an out-and-out idiot, a fool who had been betrayed. How can she not be angry? !

"Ian, seriously, do you need me to introduce you to a psychiatrist? To hide your doubts for so long, will this really not affect your mental health?" Sarah really felt that she was facing a stranger , if Ian is really a stranger, maybe she will feel a lot better at this moment, "It's a pity that you don't become a detective, you are so patient and lurking, you even have a recording of my phone call, Ian, don't we Do you record all calls? This is horrible, and if I'm a witch, you're crazy!"

The smell of gunpowder filled Sarah's words, but Ian laughed out loud when he heard the words, as if Sarah's reaction seemed very joyful to him.He shook his head, then let go of the armrest of the seat, stood up, and released Sarah trapped in his arms, and this action obviously relieved the pressure Sarah felt when she looked up at him.

When Sarah secretly breathed a sigh of relief and adjusted her sitting posture vigilantly, Ian stepped back two steps, giving Sarah a more comfortable distance.He leaned against the edge of the desk, picked up the earliest paternity test again, and shook it lightly in front of Sarah: "I only took it out at first, remember? I just wanted to tell you this The blood relationship exists, I hope to hear Noah call me daddy, that's all. But the conversation after that is obviously not pleasant, look at this paper, is this the last thing you want to see in a long time? You are like a Hedgehog, when I took out this paternity test, you already exploded all the spikes on your body, and guarded me strictly."

This seemed to remind Sarah that the conversation had come to this point because of her lack of cooperation, because of her paranoia.Sarah couldn't help but frowned. Could it be that she really started this war?No!She was not wrong, she just guessed that Ian wanted more, she was just afraid that this man would really take her son away, and Ian's attack later proved that her worries were not groundless, so Ian restarted The topic is what to do?

"Now, dear witch, can you calm down and listen to what I, a lunatic, have to say?" Ian said unhurriedly, with a calm mood, completely devoid of the sinister aura that seemed to be forcing the palace before, and even offered to pour a glass for Sarah. Wen Shui, "Sorry, I know what I said before surprised you and even scared you, so I am sorry for my previous inappropriate behavior. Come on, drink some water, if you have calmed down, we can try to restart Noah's Regarding the issue of custody rights, calm down and have a good chat with absolute peace of mind."

"What! Are you joking?" Sarah was completely stunned this time. She absolutely doubted Ian's mental health. What a strange brain circuit it must be to think that everything just now can be taken care of with a single apology. And pass?It seems that taking off the vest that she has disguised for many years is just a small episode that is as dispensable as talking about the weather!Now that the topic has been brought back to custody, why did you prepare so many irrelevant things before?Did you just think about the addiction of "striping the vest"?

"Joking? No, of course I'm not joking. Do you think I'm joking now?" Ian spread his hands with an innocent expression, and even stepped back to the side of the table to make Sarah feel more at ease. On the other end, sitting across from Sarah, "The only purpose of this conversation is to settle the matter of raising Noah. From the beginning to the end, I have no other intentions. Everything is just to make our conversation go smoothly. So, now , dear Sarah, would you please reconsider my offer? Give me an answer, will you tell Noah that I am his father? Will you let me raise him?"

Sarah was still dazed for a long while, before finally realizing that the man who seemed to be exposing her past life just now had actually returned to the original topic in a serious manner.She couldn't figure it out for a while, but she still answered calmly under Ian's gaze: "Noah has the right to know who his biological father is? I will not stop this. But, I will never hand Noah to you. "

"Even if I might take away all your wealth, everything you own now? You don't want to give up custody?" Ian raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised by Sarah's answer.

"Yes, I will not give up. Even if all your previous threats come true, even if you hand over the phone recording to the National Security Agency to prosecute me for treason, I will not give up." Sarah said to the other side The man looked at each other, and every syllable he said was extremely firm, "No matter why you did what you did today, I only know one thing-I am Noah's mother. This child has followed me since childhood, even though I have many incompetence In other places, I am still his mother, maybe he really needs a father, then what I can accept is joint custody, I need Noah, for me he is much more important than those wealth, fame and status. So, if you want, we can give him complete fatherly love and motherly love. Why do we have to struggle with the ownership of custody? If you love him, you can love him with all your strength. I can guarantee that there will be no hindrance. "

Like a firm declaration, Sarah still gave such an answer even though she was almost lost due to Ian's sudden attack, and Ian, who was sitting opposite him, had no extra expression, no anger, no disappointment on his face. Like a meditating statue, watching Sarah quietly, without saying a word.

After a long time, this man who seemed to be thinking forever finally responded, he let out a long breath, his voice was obviously much lower than before: "If you accept joint custody from the beginning, everything will be very simple... Sarah La, it seems that I know you well enough, and your understanding of me seems to be only one-sided."

"What?" Sarah didn't understand what Ian was trying to express for a moment.

And Ian has already continued: "Then, please accept this resignation letter and sign the share transfer bookmark. Our son will be raised by us together in the future!"

"Resignation? Wait, why did you suddenly pull out another resignation letter?" Sarah couldn't help but widen her eyes, full of doubts, thinking that what awaited her would be another tit-for-tat confrontation, but she didn't expect it to be like this after a rapid drift Unexpected result.

This time, she finally had enough patience to open the share transfer document that had been placed in front of her long ago, and soon the doubt in her eyes was completely replaced by surprise and shock, "All? You actually want to give all the shares to Nuo Ya? Is that what you intended from the beginning?"

"To be precise, our son will not have the right to dispose of this wealth until he becomes an adult, and before that, you will temporarily keep it. This arrangement will ensure that you have absolute control in the group, even if Michael and Ha If Wei makes any small moves, your status will not be shaken." Ian motioned Sarah to carefully read the following terms.

But Sarah has already realized the more important question: "Why? You are obviously involved in the management of the company, so you can hold this part of the shares and give it to Noah yourself when he grows up, but you suddenly handed it over to me. A resignation letter, it's like... like..."

"It's like a complete separation, a clean break... I will completely leave the starlight, and I will no longer have any intersection with you except Noah's parents." Ian smiled slightly under Sarah's shocked eyes. Smiled, "Although I am very reluctant, but this time, I will completely withdraw from your stage. Of course, I will not give up on Noah, and I will not waste the rights I have spent so much time fighting for. When you are busy with filming or When I hope to spend more time with Mr. DiCaprio, I will be happy to take Noah on vacation and enjoy a good parent-child time. This arrangement is good for us. Since you are a constant movie Busy people, I'm going to have a lot of time with Noah."

"But...but...why all of this? You have paid so much for the company, and you have single-handedly built the prophecy network to its current scale. God, Ian, are you crazy? Why did you suddenly make such a decision? "Because she was too shocked, Sarah was even a little incoherent. What happened today was beyond her expectations. Is this world crazy?Why can't she understand the development of the situation in front of her!

Her eyes fell on the share transfer letter, and then she scanned the black and white letter of resignation, which was definitely not a joke, and other documents on the table, her head was already filled with question marks and exclamation marks one after another: "Your doubts, Your recordings, your reasoning that nearly broke me...Ian, damn it, you did all this today just to say 'goodbye' to me? What is the meaning of this table thing? Farewell A prank from before?"

"Why does it have to be meaningful?" Ian raised his eyebrows and asked without answering.

"Because you are a person who won't do useless work!" Sarah's answer was also very firm. She understands Ian's code of conduct, and she is a rigorous guy who won't waste even a minute.

"Well... then consider it my curtain call show! It has no special meaning, it just wants to end everything related to you. After all, I used to be so curious about your unsolved mysteries, curious about you Where did you come from, distant China? Or the misty future? I wonder if you really have magic? Or do you have superpowers to predict the future? Because of these conjectures, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep at night, so I want to know myself Throw everything out to blow you up, maybe you can get an unexpected answer." Ian turned the signature pen in his hand, explaining his cautiousness in a light tone, "Besides, that's why I won today's conversation The initiative. Otherwise, I can’t imagine you, who wholeheartedly doubt that I will snatch Noah, how can you trust me, believe that the olive branch I handed out is not a ecstasy of boiling frogs in warm water, and my resignation is not an attack with retreat as an advance .Sarah, I know you well, better than you know."

"So, it's all just for Noah? Just to make a conclusion?" Sarah was obviously shocked when Ian talked about China and the future, and when Ian finished speaking, she only felt a trance.

"Yes, it's just to let you accept my new identity with peace of mind. Believe me, I really have nothing else to ask for... For me, this is like a special farewell. As for your real secret, hehe , I think I seem to have guessed it. But as you said, what's the point? No matter who you are, you are the mother of my son, the woman I have loved for many years." Ian shrugged with a smile, Under Sarah's shocked gaze, he rarely made a childish grimace, "Of course, if you take everything today as a warning, I have no problem, because if you abuse our son in the future, I will Will not hesitate to act on all previous threats."

"This is really... a perfect surprise." Sarah shook her head slowly, "Honestly, isn't today April Fool's Day? I wonder if you standing in front of me are the Ian I'm familiar with."

"That's because you've always been familiar with Ian, your business partner, but now, it's Ian who wants to live another life." Ian took a sip of his cold coffee, and said in a disappointed tone, "Actually , All the changes in thinking happened yesterday, I suddenly realized that my life seems to be only you these years, and if I don't leave, my next life will only be you, only Noah."

He put down the coffee cup, looked at Sarah who had calmed down and was listening quietly, and suddenly smiled happily: "We have known each other for so long, but it seems that we have never sat together and talked quietly like this, you and I The only topic is always work! Work! Work! After all, this is my biggest bargaining chip to stay with you. I once told myself that as long as you want the company to be strong, I will be your most inseparable right-hand man. By your side, in your psyche has an indispensable place."

"You are also my friend, a very, very important friend. To me, you are not just a simple work partner." Sarah emphasized solemnly. In fact, hearing Ian's obvious revealing of his feelings made her very uncomfortable--

Will there be such a long love?Ian's intentions even made her feel at a loss. She was not narcissistic enough to think that men all over the world loved her, but she thought that Ian had given up his love for her after the original rejection, just like a horse who had already had a new relationship. Te Damon, after all, people are moving forward, no one would really be willing to hang himself on a fruitless tree... right?She is busy with so many things all day long, busy making movies, busy falling in love, busy chasing awards, busy with the company, she even races against time to make out with Leonardo, how can she have the energy to care about Iraq? Has Eun started a new relationship?So, she didn't know that Ian was so affectionate... Is it her negligence?Or should I blame Ian for hiding his feelings too restrained?

"You know, what I want is not just a friend, but what I want, you will never give it." Ian smiled slightly, "Then if I continue to stay by your side, only A long period of self-torture."

"Have you been...in pain? I'm sorry...I..." Sarah felt a little sore in her heart.

Ian held up his palm to stop her apology.

"No need to feel sorry because you rejected me long ago, didn't you? Your rejection was clear and clear, and you never gave me any ambiguous hopes, so you really don't need to apologize to me. It's always been just me I can’t take back my eyes from following you. God knows if my desire for you will reach its peak one day in the future and turn me into a complete lunatic.” Ian frowned, obviously he himself rejected this assumption, and Such a hypothesis almost came true, "You know? Just last night, when Charles told me that he deliberately let Mr. DiCaprio see pictures of me as a child..."

As he spoke, he took out a photo. On it was a little boy who looked very similar to Noah, and Sarah immediately recognized that it was Ian.

"When I heard Charles say that, you know what my first thought was? I was so excited. I couldn't help but wonder if you and Mr. DiCaprio would quarrel over this? Could it be because of There is an emotional crack in my relationship with Noah? Will it give me an opportunity?" Ian did not hide the dark side in his heart, and even smiled at Sarah, "Look, what a dark thought, this is The psychological distortion caused by long-term wanting and jealousy, and when I realized how despicable I had become, I couldn't help but spurn such a self and doubt my decision to continue to stay by your side. After all these years, I Your waiting and patience seem to have reached the limit, I can no longer keep smiling and watch you put on wedding dresses for other men, give birth to children... and I even have to prepare Christmas presents for those little guys..."

"Eh..." Sarah opened her mouth slightly, never expecting that Ian would suffer such a torment. She tried to imagine the scene where she watched Leonardo and other women enter the wedding ceremony, and then silently She lowered her head, because that was not a future she could bear, not to mention continuing to stay with Leonardo who belonged to him, if she stayed like that for a week, she would probably collapse, watching Leonardo and other women being sweet Show affection?No!Or kill her!

Ignoring Sarah's ugly face, Ian put away some regretful emotions, and turned his eyes to the empty document bag in front of him, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth: "People say that wayward children have sweets." Eat, and I never seem to be self-willed in front of you. Looking back on these years, in our relationship, I seem to have always played the role of a capable and well-behaved housekeeper. To be honest, this makes me feel a little wronged, especially when I This grievance will be infinitely magnified when I see Mr. DiCaprio enjoying your tenderness. So, I brought these things that may shock you, and I secretly said to myself, if your attitude is cold or If you keep doubting, I will use them to frighten you."

"In the end, my attitude was really not good." Sarah smiled apologetically, and explained in a low voice, "Because from what I know about you, you suddenly brought the paternity test to the public, which shows that you are not interested in visiting Nuo now and then. Ya's rhythm is dissatisfied, you want to change, and the biggest possibility of change is to take Noah away... Sorry, it's probably because I care too much about Noah, so I speculated on your intentions and forced the worst possibility on you."

"It's also because you know me too well as a working partner. With the thinking mode of business competition, I will completely destroy you, acquire you strongly, and spare no effort to achieve the goal. This is indeed my personality." Ian laughed at himself, " You know your co-workers so well, but you don't know your admirers so well. When you looked at me defensively, I was really frustrated and a little bit sulky at the same time. I should apologize for today's waywardness You apologize, but at least I proved one thing - besides being your work partner, I'm also probably the person who understands you best in this world."

"Well, I have to admit, you successfully proved this point, and you also managed to scare me very successfully. When you released that recording, I was completely dumbfounded." In Ian's rare anger Under the tone, Sarah couldn't help laughing, this Ian is obviously more lively.

And she really has to admit that Ian probably knows her better than anyone else in this world. Thinking of the previous scenes, she still has a sense of panic that she has seen a ghost. As for the recording that made her worry ~~" To be honest, I should thank you for covering up for me in obscurity these years, and for making up for my lack of rigorous behavior. But, how did you do it? I mean that recording, in In that kind of crisis, you still have mood recordings!"

"Critical time? No, I didn't know it would be a critical time. In fact, it was not my life that was at stake, but the company. I flew to New York overnight to help Charles deal with some difficult matters in the company. As for The mobile phone recording is not for you, but to guard against the company's shareholders who have shady intentions. You know, in order to eliminate cunning business moths, some special methods are very effective.

The result... Unexpectedly, our business moth was accidentally killed in that terrorist attack, and your secret was recorded on my phone.It is precisely because of this phone call that I have the ridiculous idea of ​​suspecting that you are from the future. "

Ian looked at his watch while talking, he stood up, his suit jacket was on his arm again: "Okay, that's it, we've talked a lot today, thank you, Sarah, but If we continue talking, I'm afraid I won't want to let go! So...my dear Sarah..."

"Wait! Wait a minute..." Sarah looked at Ian, who was obviously about to say goodbye, with her mouth before her brain, and she instinctively wanted to keep him, but when she stood up, she just looked helplessly at this old man who had been with him for many years. Partner, "Really... just leave like this? I mean, Xingguang, are you really willing?"

"Sarah..." Ian looked at Sarah steadfastly, smiling calmly, "You know in your heart what I'm really reluctant to part with."

"But..." Sarah was embarrassed by Ian's words, but the first sentence was kept, and then more came to her mind.She quickly sorted out her thoughts, and felt that it was not impossible for her to keep her: "Are you really not thinking about it anymore? If it's just to reduce the number of meetings with me, you can withdraw this resignation. Because..."

She paused here, gritted her teeth, and continued, "Because I am planning to completely let go of the company's business, remember, I once expressed this wish, I hope to be a dedicated actor, besides, management The company is not what I am good at, let alone Michael and Harvey, two ambitious old foxes, I can't deal with them while studying acting skills, but I also can't give them complete trust."

"But you have always done a good job. Whether it is your investment vision or your vision of choosing movies, you have succeeded in amazing everyone. The reason why Starlight and Prophecy.com are today is all because of your smart and magical mind." Little brain, even Michael and Harvey appreciate you for this." Ian's eyes flickered, but he didn't accept Sarah's retention. He smiled wryly and sighed in a low voice, "Sarah, you always So humble."

"Humility? No, because those so-called successes are all because of..." Sarah squeezed Ian's resignation letter, facing the other's lonely eyes, and finally made up her mind.

She stroked her forehead and sighed as if admitting defeat: "Okay, okay! There is nothing to hide, who made me face the only guy in the world who knows all my secrets! And wait until the mysterious veil Uncover all the illusions, Ian, and you will find that the one you have loved all these years may be just a vain woman who only knows how to take advantage of opportunities."

"Huh... that's right... I should have let you know..." Sarah took a deep breath, and while handing the resignation letter to Ian, she whispered: "Aren't you always curious? Actually, just As you can imagine, I am indeed a freak from the future..."

The smile on the corner of Ian's mouth froze at this moment. Obviously, it was one thing to have a guess, but it was another thing to hear Sarah admit it with his own ears.

"My success is not due to precise vision and judgment, but because for me, that is a historical fact that has already happened. I can silently write the box office rankings, and of course I know which movie may be a big hit; I can Counting down the list of future Oscar winners, of course I know which film is the best choice for me; I have a lot of knowledge about the world's top companies in the future, and of course I will not miss the rare investment opportunity."

Under Ian's strange gaze, Sarah did not feel embarrassed about taking off her vest. The initial confession was the most difficult to say. Her lips, teeth, and throat seemed to be barriers that were difficult to break through, and every pore on her body was resisting. .But after taking the first step, the next 99 steps are not so difficult.

Sarah handed her resignation forward again, and shrugged regretfully at Ian who was in a daze: "The interesting thing is that the only talent I am proud of, the shining point that really belongs to me, is when I came to Acting skills that the world has only honed little by little, but this is the area that you are least interested in. Whether Leon or Matt Damon, they all applaud my performance, only you, Ian, only You marvel at my so-called business talent. Unfortunately, that is the most unreal part of me. I'm sorry, I cheated your appreciation in a way similar to cheating, and the real me...is not worthy of your obsession."

"So... you invested in Google in the first place?" Ian asked uncertainly.

"It's because Google will become one of the top companies in the world in the future." Sarah spread her hands.

"You bought IMBD and Rotten Tomatoes?" Ian's face turned sideways, his expression getting weirder.

"Because they will be the authoritative movie rating website in the future." Sarah answered very frankly.

Ian was silent for a long time. He took a deep breath before speaking again with some difficulty: "Are you in love with Leonardo?"

"Huh? You actually asked this!" Sarah coughed lightly in embarrassment. Some unexpected topics would take such a sudden turn, but instead of evading the question, she suddenly smiled playfully and triumphantly, "I love Lai Ang, because I have always loved him. In the past, I have loved him for 20 years, and now, I find that I love him more than before... If there is no accident, I think, probably in this life Keep loving him like this!"

"So..." Sarah looked at Ian with a frank smile, and didn't say anything more, but some words have already been left unsaid—so, after knowing all this, Ian, you will continue to be infatuated with me ?

(In order to correct the garbled characters, I sent it again, but the number of words was not enough to post it, so I added a small theater titled "Who is my love for!"

Ian didn't even remember how he left the house. It seemed that when Sarah admitted that she was from the future and confessed to all the behaviors of using future memories to remember certain benefits, Ian's brain had already shut down, and Sarah The deep and persistent love for Leonardo gave him a heavy final blow.

A call from cousin Charles snapped back Ian's thoughts: "The plane is ready, shall we go?"

"I think... the plan has to be changed, because I decided not to leave for the time being." Ian's voice was hesitant.

"What? Didn't we agree to completely stay away from that woman Sarah and everything related to her?" Charles felt a little bitter when he heard the words, "Listen brother, indecision will only make you more and more trapped in the fearless emotional sacrifice. The deeper you get, the more hopeless your infatuation with Sarah is! So, I must take you away, take you to calm down, and introduce you to a few girls, this is what you should do now!"

This was Ian's original plan, to submit his resignation letter and shares, and then turn around in style!In order to prevent regret, he arranged a one-month trip for himself, and forcibly stripped everything about Sarah from him.

But... because of Sarah's confession, he became confused. Who has he given his love to all these years?Is it an illusion created by a future cheater?When all the truth came to light, the business genius he admired had been forcibly offline, and all the admirable decisions were shrouded in the light of the future, and at this moment, he regretted his too strong curiosity. Ra's secret was less persistent, and maybe he wouldn't find himself so ridiculous now. )

The author has something to say: 8000 words have finally written all the content I want to express!

Huh~~ Wearing a vest with 100 million words!I finally took it off, but I don't know if Ian will feel relieved after this conversation?Or grit your teeth and send the blade to the author,

Ian burst into tears: "Why did you mention Matt Damon again? He is obviously the third male, but he leads the benefits that the second male does not have. He refuses to accept it!"

Sarah pointed her fingers innocently: "It can't be helped. Matt fell in love with me as an actor. His admiring and infatuated eyes made me very happy, satisfied, and even enjoyed! And you... Whenever you use that kind of Looking at me with admiring eyes, I will always feel a little uncontrollable guilty, as a time-traveling party whose values ​​have not completely fallen, the baby is also suffering~~~"

Dai Lin: "Actually, the male god of the ascetic style is the author's favorite, Ian, you can give up Sarah and come to this palace to sleep with me for nothing."

Leonardo sneered: "I thought your favorite was me!"

~~~~~~~

Anyway!This is Ian and Sarah in Dai Lin's works. As for Leon~~~ To paraphrase Sarah's words, "I love Leon because I have always loved him, and I have loved him in the past. I have loved him for 20 years, and now, I find that I love him more than before... If there is no accident, I think, I will probably continue to love him like this for the rest of my life!"
