Chapter 1025

Cecilia stood in the same place. Although London was not hot or cold in July, she felt that she was in the ice caves of Siberia and began to shiver. Even she didn't understand why: what was wrong?

For a long time, Elizabeth gazed at cilia for so long, and then opened the newspaper on the table, the slender palm painted with rose and nail polish, and carefully rubbed the front page headlines of the times as if touching the print and soul of every printed character with fingertips.

"Langley Hall: a hereditary aristocrat with an actor's dream.

——After layers of polishing, he is a born actor. "

Then, Elizabeth closed her fingertips, and she could see that the muscles on her wrists were tense, revealing a little inner turbulence. But it was only a flash. Then Elizabeth quickly retracted her right hand, straightened her waist slightly, and showed her elegant posture again. Her white neck was like a swan, It's too perfect to touch.

Elizabeth gave a light smile again. "Thank you. Well, get busy with your work first. "

No response, no reply, as if just casually asked for some time, and then again began to step forward in the established direction, in a twinkling of an eye disappeared behind the white office door, elegant and appropriate etiquette can not find any flaws and defects, can be called a kind of beauty enjoyment.

Suddenly, Cecilia felt that the short conversation just now was just her own fantasy, and that nothing had ever happened; But a large cold sweat on her back was reminding her that it was not a dream.

"Langley hall? Langley hall

Cecilia didn't quite understand what had gone wrong or what had gone wrong, or why Elizabeth had stopped. She chewed it carefully, and then a bold idea flashed across her head like lightning, which made her stand in the same place——

"Langley hall, Elizabeth hall; Elizabeth hall, Langley hall. "

Realizing this, Cecilia covered her mouth, widened her eyes, and exclaimed, "Jesus Christ!" But just imagining this idea in her mind, she was so frightened that she couldn't speak. Now her only idea is:

It's not true, is it?

……

Elizabeth Ann was sitting in the office, calm and calm. She did not seem to be affected, but those who really knew her could notice that her eyes were slightly lowered, her nutmeg like lips slightly pursed, and the agitation beneath the calm surface was creeping.

Even the nobles, they are still mortals, but etiquette and upbringing bound all their emotions and refused to get out of control.

But at the moment, Elizabeth can hardly hide her gaffe.

From box office to awards, from professionals to ordinary audiences, from professional media to tabloids, all of them have been completely occupied. All aspects, inside and outside, have proved a fact: lanli is an actor and is creating his own success.

In fact, after the west end performance, Elizabeth has realized this reality, but she refuses to admit that she did not go to the Almeida theatre, she did not watch the performance, she did not even mention the "miserable world", as if it was another strange world, and everything that happened had nothing to do with her.

Now, it's not about her anymore.

The only idea in Elizabeth's mind is: he has exposed his identity after all, he has dragged the family into the water after all, he has insulted the surname of "Hall" after all, he has made them become the talk capital of the public after all, he has made the hall family become the "inferior" object of discussion among the aristocracy after all.

Stupid and selfish.

Elizabeth drew a curve in the corner of her mouth, not anger or chagrin, not regret or sadness, but irony. This is an early expected result, which has now been realized. It only proves her conjecture and expectation. There is no need to make a fuss.

As for talent? It's one thing to sit in the audience and enjoy the performance; It's one thing to stand on stage and perform. They should belong to the former, not the latter. So, does talent matter?

Elizabeth knows that Langley has talent as an actor, which is not worth mentioning at all, but the hall family can't have an actor. To be exact, the aristocratic class can not have an actor. If it is only an occasional guest show once or twice, or the nature of playing tickets, it can be said that it is young and ignorant, trying some new things, but as a profession, it is a shame.

Therefore, Elizabeth chose to obliterate and ignore. She believes that George also holds the same idea. Although they did not agree, they reached a consensus and made every effort to hope that lanli would get lost. But... After all, things have come to this point. He has insulted the surname of "Hall".

Elizabeth straightens her waist, grabs the landline on her desk and dials George's office phone. After about two rings, the Secretary picks up the phone and smoothly transfers it to George. George's polite and distant greetings come from her ear. Elizabeth still maintains her usual elegance and coolness.

"Have you read today's newspaper news?"

"Which one?" George's answer was simple and clear, to the point.

"Lan Li." Elizabeth spat out this strange name, the last time she talked about it, it seemed that it had been a century.

George nodded. "Yes. What's up? Is there anything special? "

George's response made Elizabeth's elegant brow slightly frown, but her voice remained calm. "Now that the news has come out, it means that everyone will talk about us, and with a special look, you don't need me to wake up. What do you think we should do?"

"It doesn't need to be dealt with." George said calmly.

"What?" Elizabeth's voice was so hard to see that she lost control of it. The epilogue rose slightly. She couldn't believe her ears.

"You heard me." George didn't seem to notice that Elizabeth was out of control. "Elizabeth, let me tell you that count Richard de Ville has agreed to leave his trust fund to me. You know what that means. " It's not a question, it's an affirmative.

The Earl of Richard de Ville, the Earl of Oxford, was the former playwright in the west end.

"The Lord's only request is that he can get a full set of CDs of les miserables signed by Langley himself and have a chance to talk to Langley. Do you understand? That's his only request. " George's voice slightly tense up, Richard's request is not his fund can make money, not his fund manager can be competent, but lanli.

"George hall! Do you know you are insulting your last name now? " Elizabeth straightened her back again. She could even feel that her spine was about to break, but she still refused to relax.

George sneered. A month ago, when he appeared in Almeida theater, his dignity and pride were gone.

Hereditary Baron? They still maintain a bright and dignified life, but they are no longer the real aristocrats who can live on trust funds and private land. They need work and income to maintain their dignity.

If you don't want to be like those traditional ancient nobles who are reduced to living in the countryside of southern France and have nothing but the title of nobility, and then rely on touting their title and etiquette of nobility, pretend to be celebrities, accompany those actors, models, writers, rich people and artists to have dinner, and satisfy their fantasy of nobility, then he must be so.

Since the matter of lanli has been irresistible, why not make full use of it?

At the very least, he doesn't have to sell his Baron title.

"Elizabeth, I know the meaning of Hall's name better than you, but are you sure you know what you're sticking to?" George laughed at himself. "Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice learned about it for the first time. They told the prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge, and they all thought it was a very wonderful thing. Obviously, there are many 'gifted' artists in the aristocracy."

At the other end of the receiver, it seemed that Elizabeth's desire to speak was stopped. George said, "by the way, her majesty seems to have heard about it. She said," Hey, times have changed. "

After that, there is silence.

George realized his slight gaffe, adjusted his breathing and recovered.

Before lanli, not a few aristocratic members participated in Western District performances or film shooting, but most of them just played with tickets, and they didn't really form a climate; But now, lanli has become the first real noble actor to break out of the world, which means that he has become a beginning, a starting point and a breakthrough.

*********One of the most interesting changes is our attitude.

At the beginning, facing the "public appearance" of Princess Diana, even if it was just the kindness and gentleness in the face of the public, it was also a very unpleasant move among the royal family. The queen even refused to cover up her rejection of Princess Diana.

Now, in the face of the history of lanli, the Queen's mood and mentality have undergone earth shaking changes. Since the death of Princess Diana, the world has changed a lot in the past ten years, and the royal family has gradually kept pace with the times.

Different, after all, is different, although shocking, but the society and times have been different.

At both ends of the phone, George and Elizabeth are both silent. It seems to be an accident, it seems to be stubborn, it seems to be painful, but no one speaks. After the lack of communication bridge in the calm words, no one can guess each other's mind.

In this respect, they are all experts.
