Chapter 034

With Simon's words, the ward fell into a brief silence again.

Simon's suggestion is already very obvious. He asked for $500000 compensation just to test whether there is an emissary he may have roughly confirmed behind the scenes.

Then, maybe it was driven by some factors, maybe the guy who was scared out of last night's incident wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, and Simon got the $500000 check very well.

But he obviously didn't care about the money.

Even disgust.

He just wanted a tit for tat result.

Katherine did not know the truth of "white head is as new as old.". But from the first meeting, Simon made her feel like a familiar person, and he always left the deepest impression on her in every contact.

During this time, although only occasionally meet, occasionally phone, but Catherine has unconsciously Simon as one of his best friends.

At this time, hearing Simon say so, Catherine had a strong worry in her heart.

Last night, Simon had a lot of scars, which made her not care about the person who Simon wanted to break his leg again. She even felt that it was not too hard to teach him a lesson.

However, Katherine does not want Simon to get into subsequent trouble.

The person who can easily take out a check for half a million dollars can't be nobody. After breaking such a person's leg, Simon's next attempt to escape would be very difficult.

What's more, Catherine is a little worried about Simon's mental state.

In the final analysis, Janet's madness is just a little girl's temperament spoiled under the favorable living conditions.

However, Catherine clearly remembers that when she first met Simon, it was the bus she got on from Watsonville.

Then he said he was from Watsonville psychiatric hospital.

Ordinary people tend to take Simon's remark as a joke, but Catherine doesn't think so at all.

Then, as a newcomer without any qualifications, he succeeded in persuading Jonathan Friedman to sign himself and become the only screenwriter under his name. When she first introduced him, she just hoped that Jonathan Friedman, as vice president of wma, could arrange an ordinary agent for him. As long as we can sign under wma, it is a very rare opportunity for most people.

Then, she saw the amazing song "flying wild bees" on the beach of Venice.

Then, with the film company's first contract, he got 200000 dollars. Although there are some games that are not enough for outsiders, for an 18-year-old boy, it is enough to make too many people look at him.

Finally, even the five legs he broke last night.

The baseball bat also hit him, but did not cause too much damage, but he broke the young men's leg bones to pieces, which could not be done by ordinary people.

All this, let Catherine confirm that Simon is a genius.

However.

Genius and madman are always separated by a line.

With this thought, Catherine unconsciously took Simon's hand, looked at the young man on the bed sincerely, and whispered, "Simon, promise me, this is the end of it, OK?"

Simon has never been a forgiving person.

However, at this time, feeling the coolness of Katherine's palm, Simon found that the strong resentment in his heart from last night was gradually melting like ice and snow.

After a moment's silence, Simon nodded slightly in Catherine's expectant eyes: "OK, Catherine, I'll listen to you."

Hearing Simon say so, the atmosphere around him was a little stagnant, which eased down.

Janet, who was standing at the end of the bed, also recovered from Simon's indifferent eyes. She noticed that the hands of the two people were still together. Janet blinked, and suddenly wanted to step forward to take Katherine's hand away and put on her own.

George Norman, who plays the role of a bystander in silence, recalls the scene just now and the situation in front of him, and suddenly feels that his niece would like to hear the result very much.

I don't know why. This morning, Jennifer, who came to deal with the case with great enthusiasm, heard that the boy asked for $500000 in compensation. She was in a very low mood for the whole morning and was silent in the face of his inquiry.

"Well, everybody," George Norman volunteered as the dust settled, "in that case, I think it's time for me to leave."

When Catherine heard George Norman speak, she realized that she had been holding the boy's hand for a long time. She quickly released it as if nothing had happened, but she didn't dare to see Simon on the bed again. She got up and said, "Mr. Norman, I'll see you off."

George Norman nodded, but took out a business card from his suit pocket, formally handed it to Simon on the bed, and said, "Mr. westrow, this is my business card. You can call me any time you need."Simon took the card, nodded and said, "I will, Mr. Norman. Besides, I don't have a fixed address yet. You can send Catherine today's bill first, and she will give it to me. "

Although due to Catherine's persuasion, Simon gave up the plan to continue to pursue. However, this incident did not come to an end in silence.

For people in this circle, it's never easy for Hollywood to keep a secret.

In the next few days, the rumor that some of the best friends of a leading male star were broken by someone spread all over Hollywood, and all kinds of rumors about it continued to ferment.

As the client, Simon, a new screenwriter who has just stepped into Hollywood, has once again fallen into the eyes of many people.

Simon didn't know how to talk about himself in the circle. In a few days' hospital stay, most of the people he met after he came to Los Angeles came to visit him. Even David giller, the producer in charge of the butterfly effect, showed up in his busy schedule.

In addition, the five young people whose legs were broken by Simon also became the focus of many people.

As we all know, these five youths are Matthew Broderick's best friends. In connection with a series of recent events, it is not difficult for people to infer the truth of some facts.

Jonathan Friedman talked to Simon about it when he visited him.

It is said that Norman Broca also issued a not too formal seal order, but it could not stop the spread of all kinds of speculation. At the same time, the agent's words also vaguely persuade Simon not to pursue further.

Now that the decision has been made, Simon will not go back on it.

Although the doctor hoped Simon would be in the hospital for at least a week, he was sent to the hospital on Tuesday night. Simon just stayed until the weekend and went through the discharge procedures in a hurry.

There is also the first production meeting of butterfly effect in the new week, and it is also related to the script revision. Simon said that he didn't need to adjust the time for David giller on the day he visited him, and he would be on time.
