Around 10 p.m., outside the rented apartment of the "High Heels and Buttons" troupe, Evan and Audrey were reluctant to say goodbye in the car.

"Okay, I've got to go in, and if I drag it on, the troupe will come back, and maybe the reporters will come back with me. ”

After Audrey kissed Evan on the cheek, she said, "Had a great time today...... Don't forget to wash the photos a little more!"

After getting Evan's assurance, Audrey picked up her small leather bag across the body, opened the car door, got out of the car, closed the door, bent down and waved her hand at the window, and said, "Evan, have a good night's sleep." ”

"Bob, thank you for your hard work today!"

Evan smiled and replied, "You too, dear. ”

Bob left the steering wheel with his right hand, waved at Audrey and said, "It's my pleasure! Good night, Miss Audrey!"

After saying this, Audrey turned around, carried the strap of the cross-body bag, and walked into the apartment with cheerful steps. After the figure disappeared, the Ford slowly started.

A short time later, the crew returned to the apartment after finishing the evening performance. Audrey waited in the corridor for director Abbott and informed him of her decision to finish the summer.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Abbott, I know quitting the crew in the middle of the show will cause you a lot of trouble, but ......"

"Stop...... Audrey!" Abbott interrupted Audrey's apology and said, "You don't have to apologize for this, you are still a student, and it is natural that you focus on your studies." ”

"Therefore, I grant your request. ”

Audrey looked apologetic and said, "Thank you, Mr. Abbott." ”

Abbott said kindly, "No thanks, Audrey. ”

"But you'll have to do well in the next show!"

Audrey nodded and said, "Okay, I will." ”

……

The next morning, Evan went to Smith & Grammore, which had just completed the acquisition, to appease the publishing staff. Then, he met Isaac Fields in his office.

Evan did a good job of suppressing the surprise in his eyes, and Isaac was a little embarrassed.

After about an hour, the staff meeting ended. Alan Granmore, the former general manager, finally decided to stay, which gave the veteran employees a lot of peace of mind. This shows that at least Alan Granmore's confidence in the new owner is high, and maybe the publishing house will have a good future.

At noon, Evan found a restaurant and brought Isaac Fields to lunch.

It's a French restaurant, and Evan orders the main course of charred quail with foie gras. Isaac, who entered this kind of high-end restaurant for the first time, was flattered and took a long time to get used to it.

"Isaac, have you decided on the outline?"

During the banquet, Evan asked with interest.

For Isaac, Evan had a good impression. Now that Orville has brought him into the club and he has become a member of his own company by accident, Evan is happy to help.

Just as Smith and Grammore were about to overhaul their business, some unpopular cheap comics would be sold, and pulp would slowly transform into regular magazines, including a fantasy magazine, so Evan thought that if Isaac's outline would satisfy him, he would sign him.

"Evan, I'm just waiting for your words. Isaac was so excited that he took out a few of the story outlines he had prepared from his pocket, smoothed out the wrinkles as he unfolded, and then handed them to Evan.

Evan wiped his hands, took the paper, and read it curiously.

"Title (tentative): The Gods Themselves"

……

At six o'clock in the evening, when it was about to get dark, Evan came to Alan Sproul's villa again.

The last time he took the initiative to visit, this time he was invited.

John Sproul wasn't there today, and there were only Evan and Allen at the dinner table.

At first, Alan Sproore was just gossiping with Evan, and the two talked about college, World War I, and World War II. Halfway through dinner, Alan Sproore suddenly asked, "Evan, are you done in New York, and when are you going to go back to California?"

Evan replied, "That's pretty much it." ”

"As for the time to return to California, if it goes well, it will be after the New York court decides the case. Of course, if it doesn't go well, I won't keep waiting, and I'll leave within a week at the latest. ”

Alan Sproour asked, "That case is being tried again on the 27th, right?"

Evan nodded, "Yes!"

Alan Sproore said: "There will be no problem with the case, there is still some ability to do this." ”

"Evan, say hello to your father for me when I get back to California!"

Evan replied, "Okay!"

Alan Sproul paused for a moment and said, "Also, help me ask a question......

Evan chuckled in his heart, understood that tonight's main drama was coming, and said, "You say!"

"Three years ago, he gave up the election. Can you help me ask if he will do this again next year?"

"Okay, I've got it!"

Evan thought for a moment and asked, "Uncle Sproul, do you want my father to run in next year's election?"

Alan Sproul said, "Yes!"

Evan asked again, "Hope?"

Alan Sprower glanced at Evan and asked, "What, do you think your father can't do it?"

Evan shook his head and said, "Of course not! It's just that my father is only very prestigious in California, and his support in the party and the popularity of the whole country don't seem to be the best candidate!"

Alan Sproul didn't think Evan was speaking ill of his father, so he thought for a while and asked, "Then who do you think is more suitable for the Republican Party?"

"Taft [then Senate Majority Leader]?" Alan Sproour replied to himself, "No, as soon as yesterday's bill came out, he cut himself off from the union." ”

"John Dewey (then governor of New York and moderate leader of the Republican Party)? He was good, but he had already lost to Roosevelt once. ”

Evan kept his mouth shut and didn't interject.

He didn't know if his governor's father had the interest and ambition to run in the election, and he didn't remember very well who had been president of the United States. However, Evan remembers the success of the current President Truman's re-election.

Alan Sproul, after counting the shortcomings of many potential candidates, concluded: "So, if your father is on the job, the odds are not small!"

Evan nodded in agreement, but in his heart he didn't think so.

Of course, Evan will convey to his father, whether he can't come out and run for his opinion is irrelevant, Earl Warren's thoughts and wishes are the key.

However, Evan was still a little hesitant to remind the Republicans who did not take the Democrats and Truman seriously at this time.

Is it good for yourself to change history?
