Chapter 1193: So what
Both Leila and Cooper know very well that if they want to throw money at it, the Faisal and Moran families are not at the starting line at all. If Daoud were still alive, he would still have the strength to fight, but now, he is just a lost dog.
Cooper figured this out, a little frustrated and a little more hopeful. Lyra's strength used to be a torture for him, but now it brings him a sense of security. It's ridiculous, but it's a real fact that you've been being given a sense of security by someone you've been targeting before.
But the premise is that how can she be willing to fight Faisal.
"Miss Moran, you are indeed richer and more powerful, but I have seen him take several people away and sink them to the bottom of the sea. People like him don't take other people's lives too seriously at all, as long as he wants to, your life is safe, no, and the life of your family, have you ever thought about them?"
"Mr. Cooper, my family and I are in charge of our own bodyguards, so why don't you tell me why you made this call before you say those useless words?"
She is not one of those daughters who doesn't know anything, nor is she a pedant who is dedicated to studying academics and deaf to the outside, she has been involved in intrigue since her previous life, and is always described by the majority of melon-eating people as "your circle is really messy". I've seen too many things in my eyes, and I've experienced too much, so I didn't need to provoke her hundreds of years ago, okay?
Cooper was angry at her repeatedly breaking her rhythm, but there was nothing she could do. The truth is that he wants her to defeat Faisal, and it is better to kill him directly, or drive him out of the United States. The problem is that he can't tell the truth, otherwise what would he say when people ask, "Why do you want to help him, a former opponent, do such a thing"?
He is not a person who does not understand the world at all. If he and Leila change places, I'm afraid that not only will he not help, but maybe he will also step on another kick, so that the other party will never be able to get up again.
He mustered up the courage to make this call, just thinking that he could fool the other party and let her help him solve the problem. However, the situation is now completely out of his control. If she is unwilling to make a move, he has no reason to ask the other party to do it for him.
He won't forget how he's been targeting Reynolds ever since she inherited her company. How many people would help the enemy so generously? He himself would never do that anyway.
What now?
Cooper was already in a state of chaos.
"Moran, don't you really want to get rid of this hidden danger? You and your family may have a lot of bodyguards who can protect you 24 hours a day, but can you guarantee that they can protect you even when you blink an eye? Your child is still very young, right? Do you really rest assured that he is in danger all the time?"
I have to say that Cooper's hastily come up with words did touch Lyra.
The counterattack of the dying struggle is the most irrational at all, and when joining Faisal is really at the end of the mountain, I am afraid that the idea of dragging the opponent to die before he dies will really be born. It's better not to mention any sanity in front of that kind of person, if there is really reason, I won't stay in the United States and fight against her for so many years just to breathe.
She could leave the safety of herself and her family to the bodyguards, but she didn't want her children to get into that mess. He is still young, and compared to an adult like himself, he has no ability to protect himself at all.
Maybe she really needed to be better prepared, this was not the world she was familiar with. In a place where you can't even use a gun, who can guarantee that you feel safe? Is it the gun in your hand?
That's a joke.
But it's one thing to be secretly vigilant in her heart, and on the surface she doesn't want Cooper to profit from the fisherman's side. If you can make a name for yourself in Hollywood, few are stupid. If Cooper wasn't in some huge trouble, how could he suddenly call her and say those things?
All she needed to know now was how much trouble it really was, and what she could get in between. She's a filmmaker and a businessman, so there's no reason to be taken advantage of by others, especially her former rivals, right?
"Mr. Cooper, I don't have to worry about what I need to do. If Faisal wanted to do something to me, I'm afraid it would have started a long time ago, how could he suddenly be at this time? Besides, even if he really wants to do something to me and my family, he has to measure the strength of the enemy against us, do you think he is a heavyweight with us?"
Everyone understands these things, and it's not that Cooper can fool around by pretending not to see or hear. But he didn't have a choice, he had to let these two fight to survive. It's true that he hates Lyra, but if the one who wins in the end is Faisal, he's going to be in trouble just as well.
So his intention to cooperate with Leila is also true, but he is used to playing tricks, and even at this time, he has to play some tricks to maximize his interests.
His idea was good, unfortunately he miscalculated the person. Leila is indeed very young in the eyes of these people, but being young does not mean that she is stupid, the other party's little actions seem to her as clear as writing on a blank piece of paper, but he still doesn't notice it at all, and still has his own good calculations.
"Miss Moran, aren't you really worried that there is someone who has been eyeing you behind your back? has been thinking about how to plot against you? Do you know that all these years Faisal has been investing in films that have the potential to win awards, in order to dilute your chances of winning as much as possible, so that you can't get what you want!"
"So what?" Leila had known about the news before. She also thought it was funny about Faisal and Cooper's brains. Hold a few more films to block her possibility of winning the award. Can they stop it once or twice, can they stop it all?
Maybe their method really made some of the trophies that should have been given to her be snatched away, but she really didn't care, because she had a "past life" that everyone didn't know. During that time, she understood that it was already a very lucky and happy thing to be able to make a good movie, and if she didn't win an award or something, of course it was good, and if she didn't, she wouldn't have any regrets.
In front of a person who feels happy as long as she can make a movie, she may have miscalculated her ambitions if she said that she couldn't win an award or anything.
She's ambitious and wants to win awards, but what can bring her happiness compared to making a movie itself?
The awards that she couldn't think of in her previous life have long been collected by her, even if she doesn't have any awards in the future...... Well, it's really annoying to run with you every time. But she wouldn't admit it in front of Cooper!
