Chapter 952

The thunderous applause continued and lasted for a long time. It was surging in the Almeida theater. The grand occasion of the audience's collective standing up pushed the surging applause to an incredible climax bit by bit.

Edith slapped her hands hard. Before her brain realized it, she had already stood up. After a moment's stupor, she realized that her excitement might be exposed to George's radar range, and quickly and carefully restrained herself.

At this moment, she finally understood what Arthur meant, "you'll like it." A simple sentence contains too much.

The figure was hidden behind the curtain of the box, and Edith looked at it secretly.

In the box next door, Richard de Ville raised his hands and put them on his chest. He patted excitedly and shook his head strangely. Every cell in his body was filled with joy and happiness; Standing next to George's movement a little bit stiff, especially the straight shoulder revealed his tension, but still had to join the ranks of applause.

"Poof." Edith laughs with glee. Just this scene, today's adventure is worth the ticket price.

Last time Arthur saw ALF's gaffe; Today, she saw George's compromise, and the two of them were even.

"Matthew, do you think Richard would ask to see Langley?" Edith leaned slightly and roared in Matthew's ear. There was no sign that the storm like applause in the theater stopped. Even though she was hoarse, the sound falling on her eardrum was still rare.

Matthew turned his head and saw Edith's impatient smile. He didn't hide his mind of watching a good play. Matthew nodded with restraint, but he was sure, "yes!"

Edith agreed with a smile. "I think so, too." Therefore, she doesn't plan to leave for the moment. This good play has just begun. It's a pity to miss it. She is willing to take some risks.

Looking back, Edith scanned the box and auditorium on the other side. Today's performance is really wonderful, full of devotion; At half-time, in order to avoid George, she secretly hid her whereabouts, so she didn't take a good look at the guests present today. up to now.

"Jesus Christ, is that Princess Madeleine Gustaf? The one next to her is... Why do you look familiar? " Edith had expected that there would be no lack of noble figures in the box, but she was still surprised.

Madeleine Gustav, the youngest princess of the Swedish Royal family, is third on the list of successors to the throne. She is very famous in London. About ten years ago, Madeleine came to London to study English, but she was addicted to parties, neglected her studies, neglected her business and behaved frivolously. Only two months later, she went back to Sweden.

In addition, Madeleine's love affair is also vigorous, because the man's cheating scandal, become the laughing stock of paparazzi.

Today, Madeleine appeared in Andre Hamilton's box. Edith was surprised, on the one hand, because of the other's high status, on the other hand, because the west end of London was not really Madeleine's style; However, considering the friendship between Andre and Madeleine, it seems not so surprising.

"Chris-o'neal." Matthew answered, and then explained, "Wall Street."

Because this time is too noisy, not suitable for long explanation, just a simple key word; However, Edith immediately reacted, jaw head expressed understanding, "I heard the rumor."

Chris O'Neill is a banker and a Wall Street upstart. The family background is relatively simple, no accumulation, in fact, in the eyes of the nobility is the upstart, Chris is just a rich second generation; However, his mother made a breakthrough in the upper east side of New York, and now she is a socialite - the positive kind.

At the beginning of last year, Madeleine and Chris got together. At that time, Edith was in New York. It was said that she had heard about it for the first time, but I didn't pay attention to it. Today I can see it with my own eyes.

"Even Madeleine Gustav has appeared. Will William and Kate join hands next?" Edith raised her eyebrows and joked - Prince William and Princess Kate, of course.

Matthew answered in a voice, "Princess Beatrice attended yesterday."

Princess Beatrice, the granddaughter of the queen of England and the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew, ranks seventh in the list of heirs to the throne.

Born in 1988, she has always been approachable. Three years ago, she worked in a department store as a private shopping consultant for VIP customers; Now she is still majoring in artistic creation in University. Interestingly, in 2009, she played the Queen's maid in the British film "Young Victoria", which is also the first time for a member of the British royal family to play in a film.

Beatrice has always wanted to find a job in New York's fashion and media.

Beatrice's presence not only means that the reputation of "miserable world" has spread among nobles; It also means that Langley has a chance to open the Royal gap as an actor.

"God, I wish it had happened today." Edith couldn't help sighing. If Princess Beatrice and George hall meet at the Almeida theater, and then Langley is invited to show up, this is the real show of the year“ Wait, is that Maggie Smith and Ian McKellen? "

"In Eaton's box, Helen Mirren made an appointment for the day after tomorrow, as well as Peter Otto and Patrick Stewart." Compared with Edith's accident, Matthew has been used to it, said quietly, throwing out one heavyweight name after another.

Edith was a little dazed for a moment, and then returned to normal. She nodded with a smile. "It seems that the west side will be very busy in the next period of time; And George and Elizabeth will suffer. God, I shouldn't have missed this show. I'm starting to think that these nobles are a little cute. "

Among the applause, Edith and Matthew's words were smashed to pieces. They did not continue to talk, but focused on calling for the actors to return to the curtain call. Sixteen minutes. The applause lasted for sixteen minutes. Until the final curtain call, the audience was still reluctant to part with it.

Six hours of performance left too much lingering charm.

……

Edith did not leave the theatre immediately. She was still careful to hide in the box of Dunlop's house, secretly observing the movements of the box next door——

Sure enough, Richard can't wait to meet lenley.

At first, George tried to dissuade him, but he didn't expect that Richard even wanted to leave the box and go backstage in person to have a face-to-face talk with Langley to show his love. Then George got flustered. So Emma fielding and Matthew Dunlop had to come out to appease Richard and find Langley.

Lan Li didn't refuse arrogantly. He came to the box politely and didn't even have time to replace his costume.

Lanli and Richard had a good talk. They had a lot of conversations about the play and the performance. It can be seen that Richard is a real drama maniac. He has unique views, profound understanding and high taste. When he talks with professionals, he is not only unfavourable, but also more in-depth and more excited.

Edith was sitting in the box next door, talking very clearly. Although she can't see George's expression, she can taste his depression and grievance from George's silence. Such a father is too strange, but it's too funny. Edith has to clench her teeth to avoid the crisis of laughing.

Just as Edith was thinking about when George would break into the conversation and drive away Langley, and put an end to the disgrace, the voice of Langley's farewell came to her ears.

"Lan Li!" George's intense voice revealed his anger and humiliation, but he managed to control it in time and dissuade him. "The Lord obviously has a lot of opinions about the play. Why don't you keep talking? Or we can meet again at lunch tomorrow and have a good talk. "

"I'm sorry. There will still be performances tomorrow. Unfortunately, I can't agree to the Lord's invitation. As for now, sir Maggie Smith and Sir Ian McLean are in the next box. I have to go and say hello

Maggie and Ian both accepted the Queen's canonization and enjoyed the title of jazz. These two actors are old actors who have important positions among the aristocrats.

"Oh, of course, of course. No problem. " The answer was Richard, skipping George and ignoring him, readily promised, "tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will visit Almeida theater again. For actors, stage and performance are always the most important. I deeply understand that, otherwise, you can't give such a wonderful performance. "

After a brief greeting, Lan Li really left.

Edith was just filling up George's expression when the box door was suddenly pushed open, which made her jump. Her heart suddenly contracted. Then she heard Langley's voice, "the mice in the theater are getting more and more noisy recently." Then he closed the box door and walked away.

Edith, who stayed in the same place, rolled a big white eye and gritted her teeth: that damned guy.

After closing the box door, lanli smiles at Matthew behind him, "don't worry, I can handle the rest." Then he raised his chin slightly, indicating the direction of Hall's box. "How did I do just now?"

Matthew nodded his approval. "Very good."

Lan Li chuckled and patted Matthew on the shoulder. "Please guide that angry gentleman out of the theater. Thank you." Otherwise, if George finds Edith, he will be angry.
