He was on the verge of collapse by this time.

Generally speaking, people who engage in art have relatively large brain holes and strong brain replenishment ability. The art of words is also art, and Cooper is such a person with a big brain.

In the half hour of the phone call, he went from wanting to take advantage of this transaction at the beginning, to "I don't want to take advantage of it, as long as I can escape", to "as long as you help me, I can pay a little price and never be your enemy again", and finally became "as long as you help me, I can pay any price", which made up a lot of content in the middle.

His wife and children were caught by Faisal and thrown into the open sea, where they became the living nutrients of the ferocious sharks. Leila's uncaring gesture made him even more flustered. Because he really couldn't find any reassuring information from her words, all kinds of bad possibilities went through his mind over and over again.

That's why he's so quick to lower his demands again and again.

He knew very well that Leila would not necessarily have the idea of being an enemy of Faisal until she was actually attacked. If Faisal hadn't planned to move Laila before, then knowing that the other party was going to do something to him, he might have struck first. At that point, Leila is really in danger.

The previous idea of taking advantage of him simply became self-defeating after being unceremoniously frustrated by Leila again and again, he didn't want anything anymore, he just wanted to live this life in peace with his family.

Now that he thinks about it, he is no longer young, and at the age of almost 60, he still wants to do so much? Being able to spend his old age in peace is his last thought.

Leila thought for a moment, "You can really do anything?"

"I can swear!" Seeing that she was relieved, Cooper nodded hurriedly.

Leila raised her eyebrows: "Actually, I can't get anything from you, and you don't have anything to make me happy." The only thing that can leave an impression on her mind is his film reviews and articles, and he can attract her a good attention every time. Honestly, she really sincerely hopes that he will continue to be against her like that.

It sounds incredible, and that's why Leila has confidence in herself. She knew that no matter how much he jumped, he couldn't escape the palm of her hand, so she watched with peace of mind as he fluttered like a fish washed up on the beach.

With the experience of the next one or two decades, as well as the life of her previous life, coupled with the power she has in this life, she will not regard Cooper as an enemy at all, but as a "good helper" to promote the movie for herself for free.

The enemy is the enemy, and it is he who can bring losses to himself. It's a pity that it's so simple, and Mr. Cooper can't bring it to her, so how can she make him an enemy?

Besides, she really couldn't dig up what she needed from Cooper. If he had money, he wouldn't know that he would be exploited by Faisal to run away. Isn't Hollywood's most powerful person Leila herself?

Leila didn't need him to really stop being her enemy, so what else could she get from him?

Not to mention, there really is one thing! or one thing.

Just when Cooper was annoyed that there was nothing in him that anyone could look at, Lyra spoke.

"Mr. Cooper, I do have one thing I need you to answer for me. ”

"I'll help you out, no problem!" Cooper agreed, "What do you want to know? Who is with Faisal? Or is it his current news? Although I have been away for a while, I still know some of his old habits. By the way, I still have evidence that he killed a second-tier star, do you need it?"

Leila really didn't expect him to have such guts, but the second-tier star was killed?

The thought of being accidentally turned aside by the gossip was finally pulled back by herself before she almost escaped. She coughed lightly to hide her gaffe: "I don't care about that. I just wanted to ask you a question and hope you can honestly tell me the answer. If your answer satisfies me, then I'll move on to this matter. ”

Cooper was stunned, he didn't expect such a good thing. But what exactly did she want to know? His bank password? She shouldn't be short of that money, right?

"If you ask, I will tell you what I know. ”

Leila was not polite, and asked the question directly: "What happened between you and Reynolds and the immortal bird back then, why did you keep targeting him, and even extend it to me?"

God knows how long the answer to this question has been, but no one in the whole company knows, and the only one who knows what happened at the time is Louise, and she is still very good at talking elsewhere, but she doesn't say anything about this question anyway.

"......" Cooper was silent for a few moments before he spoke dryly, "Can you change the question?" I appreciate that you are willing to help, so you can ask more important questions, such as my collection, my connections, etc. ”

Layla laughed for a while, connections or something, could he compare to herself, and what did she want his collection to do?

"Mr. Cooper, that question has been intriguing me for a long time. If you don't give me a true answer, I'm afraid I'm not interested in meddling in your affair with Faisal. "Don't be too naïve, okay, and expect her to pay and pay for him to help him pay Sal?

She didn't know that Cooper's expression was like spitting out a dead fly. It was something he was proud of, but it also made him wish he had never seen it. Anyway, what he did against Reynolds was refreshing and enjoyable, but if he had a choice, he would rather not target him than have it ever happened.

In short, he has mixed feelings, and he hopes that he will never be known, and he is a little proud when he reminisces.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Leila continued, "You should know that there is nothing about you that makes me happy. If I want to pay Sal, I need to spend a lot of money and furnish a lot of people, do you really think I'm a person who will pay so much for free to help you?"

If she hadn't been too curious about what happened that year, she would have hung up the phone by this time. To be honest, does he have a half-dime relationship with her whether he is dead or alive?

Now just ask him what happened back then, and he's at a loss, does he think that incident is more important than the safety of him and his family?
