Chapter 144 is over

After spending a few days in Malibu with Christopher, Chris flew to London to start filming the new film, and Jenny stayed in his mansion: Chris generously gave Jenny the mansion's security code and operating system, where she could stay until she fully recovered, and then return to the crew to continue filming.

Of course, because of the sequelae of the concussion, Jenny hardly went to the beach - after two accidents, she was dizzy when she heard the sound of the waves, and she was almost just nesting in the house watching TV, in fact, she was supposed to not even watch TV, but Jenny recovered well, and after taking medication to assist the treatment, she was able to walk freely, but she was dizzy occasionally and could not return to work.

"I suspect you had a purpose in letting me stay in your house." She said angrily to the other end of the headphones, staring at Chris's slightly distorted smiling face on the screen, "Are you sure it's safe?" ”

"Please, this can't be stolen, right?" Chris couldn't stand it and said, "But either way, it won't matter soon - in a few months, poor Josh will be abandoned by you, won't you?" ”

Jenny grimaced, "Don't think you'll have a chance if I'm single, it's impossible between us, Romeo." ”

"But I really miss you, Juliet." Chris moved the camera and asked her to look out the window at the garden view, "Is it pretty?" This is my house in London, which Bono lent me. ”

"It looks really pretty," Jenny also screwed the camera of her desktop computer, "looking at the waves outside the window, is it pretty?" It's a house that a bastard lent me. ”

This may also be a strange phenomenon in the entertainment industry, although you can afford to buy a mansion, the more successful your career, the less time you spend living in a mansion. Jenny, for example, may not have lived in the house for more than three months this year, so it's normal for good friends to borrow each other's houses to live in, as long as some * areas are locked - like Johnny at the time. Depp once said that he could lend the house to Jenny to live in, which was not necessarily out of politeness and care, and many times he felt that it was a pity that the house he had paid for was empty.

Of course, the characteristics of the actor's industry also determine the colorfulness of their love life, after all, the simplest truth, unless you are in love with your assistant, or someone in the family gives up your career, the actor's family must be less together and more separated, like Jenny and Chris, who are uncertain about each other, and it is not easy to maintain a stable relationship. Can be from the cannon. Friends have developed to such an extent that they are fated to be like this - in fact, strictly speaking, they are not guns. Friends, after all, the last few meetings, including the vacation of the past few days, have no sexual meaning in it (mainly for physical reasons).

There will be nothing to talk about except sex, but it is not as serious and serious as lovers. There is a tacit understanding and warmth between each other, everyone is not stressed, this relationship makes both parties very comfortable, at least Jenny is happy every time she receives a call from Chris, and- well, once or twice, she will also let go of the lingering worry of 'being discovered' and pick up the phone and call Chris...... Although the phone sex/sex that Chris wanted to pursue has never been successful, it is true that they have developed a habit of talking on the phone from time to time.

"Okay, I've got to try on makeup." Probably guessed Jenny's concerns, or maybe he wasn't that serious, Chris hadn't said anything really ambiguous on a video call for a few days, and it was the same today, just jokingly, "Just don't miss me too much, baby, you know I don't like the way you miss and feel sad." ”

"It's the same." Jenny said angrily, "I'll pay it back." ”

She closed the window, bracing her cheeks and thinking about Chris's tone, and couldn't help but smile into the air for a moment - Mary just came through the door, and she wrinkled her nose at Jenny, "You're acting more and more like a girl in love, Jane." ”

"Don't say such terrible things." Jenny rolled her eyes at her and took the glass and pills in her hand, "Are there any paparazzi outside our house?" ”

"It's back to the usual numbers." Mary said, "But we'd better go back to Beverly tomorrow, because we're going to have to go to the hospital for a follow-up the day after tomorrow, and you know, if the doctor says it's okay, we'll have to go back to the crew, and you're still at home." ”

"No problem." Jenny swallowed the pill, "By the way, did you get a greeting email from Josh?" ”

Although Josh only came back to see her, it doesn't mean that he cares less about Jenny, no matter how the two say it, they have been good friends for several years, although Josh himself is also in the low tide of the breakup, but with his character, it is impossible to ignore Jenny's injury. It's just that he seems to have made up his mind to really quit the film industry after fulfilling the two contracts of "Pirates of the Caribbean", so calculate the time, probably after the crew completes filming in April or May next year, he can pursue the life he wants, at most, the crew needs to summon him back to make up the filming in the future, and then attend the premiere...... In short, when he no longer has an agent, no one can really dissuade him from quitting the film industry - in fact, even if he has an agent, he can't dissuade anything. He himself doesn't want to continue filming, there are many people who are willing to take his place, after all, this is very competitive Hollywood, and Josh is also a quasi-A-list that everyone envies, not an illegal immigrant black worker who has signed a deed of sale.

However, as Josh informs everyone of his decision, a corresponding change is that his relationship with Jenny must end as soon as possible, after all, the contract has long expired. Josh doesn't plan to continue to mix in the circle, if he wants to make trouble, it is his freedom to disclose the inside story of this relationship to the media after filming, at most according to the confidentiality clause in the contract, and pay millions of dollars...... In short, people don't plan to continue playing this game, and it's time for 'Jonifer' to officially break up, after so many years of acting, everyone always has a satisfactory reason to break up......

Jenny's injury is a good entry point for Judy and Cesare: Josh's neglect of visits has done a good job of blowing the wind on the media, suggesting that the relationship between the two has weakened. Of course, this is a little unfair to Josh, after all, he will bear the accusations of some fans, but who will let him not mix in the entertainment industry in the future, Judy naturally knows what to choose between him and Jenny......

However, there are objective reasons why Josh did not come back: the crew's filming schedule was indeed very tight, and after Jenny was injured, the director spread her filming time evenly among other actors, and at this time, if Josh left to visit her in Hollywood, the crew would really have to stop without the two leading actors, which was also unacceptable news for the producer. After all, just for Hurricane Verma and Jenny's injury, the production budget directly exceeded nearly 10 million dollars. - But the week before, Jenny still received greeting texts and emails from Josh from time to time, and it wasn't until this week that the two broke off.

“Yeah…… Speaking of which......" Mary's tone was a little hesitant, and in Jenny's puzzled eyes, she quickly raised her hand to confess, "Actually, Josh went to Rhode Island last weekend...... It was Claudia who told me, and we just didn't tell you. ”

Of course, Claudia knew that she was injured, but she did not come back to visit, but only made a greeting call, and then kept in touch with Mary, for fear of disturbing Jenny's rest.

"What?" Jenny raised her voice, she was a little dizzy again, "How are you-he-reporters-"

"Nothing," Mary gestured soothingly, "they only met, and Claudia was sure they weren't being followed or filmed - and even then, it was just a normal conversation, nothing out of control...... Don't worry, there won't be intimacy. ”

"That's not what I'm worried about." Jenny covered her forehead and shook her head, "Forget it, it's none of your business, no one can control Josh now. Blanche - So, did Claudia reject him? ”

"Yes, you know, she wanted to ask you to convey it, but since you're hurt, she feels like it's up to her and Josh to settle the matter themselves. So she agreed to talk to Josh and make it clear with him. Mary said with some regret, "A breakup is a breakup, and she didn't leave Josh because he was a Hollywood movie star, nor did she come back to Josh because he wasn't a Hollywood movie star." After all, she had always wanted to be a top stylist like Julian, and opening a café was not her passion...... I can't help but say that this pair is a real pity. ”

"It's Hollywood, and there's no couple that lasts forever." Almost mechanically, Jeanne recited Cesare's use to entertain Ino. Martin's Words - At the CAA's annual reception, Martin Sr. lamented Cesare's breakup with Lilian. "So, Josh has been in a mood sagre again?"

"Well," Mary nodded, "Nicholas and I said—"

She gestured, "He suspects Josh is pumping this." ”

Jenny squinted back in disbelief and Mary nodded with a heavy face, "You know, there is no shortage of goods in the crew, Gore himself sometimes comes in two, and Johnny...... Josh was pretty good on set, so you don't have to worry about that......"

"Don't worry about size." Jenny scolded and covered her head with a headache, "--Count the jet lag, what time is it in Dominica?" Is Josh on the show right now? ”

"I don't know," Mary looked at Jenny with some fear, "Jane, you can't get excited now......"

“Fuck。” Jenny waved her hand, "Go and ask Nicholas - get Nicholas ready to break down the door - forget it, call Dr. Bonnie for me, I'll be going for a follow-up appointment tomorrow, and we'll fly straight to Santo Domingo after the follow-up." ”

#

With Andy's help, Jenny unknowingly returned to her Beverly villa, ended her two-week retreat, prepared her luggage, and boarded a business airliner with a doctor's order (you can shoot normally, not exercise vigorously, and not be too emotional), and went to Santo Domingo to continue her troubled "Pirates" filming journey, and her return was also warmly welcomed by the crew members: this time she only needed to cooperate to complete some face-revealing group scenes, no scenes, There was no long-term repeated shooting, at most two or three scenes a day, most of which were one ...... Since she has completed almost all the martial arts scenes in the second part, the director team has included all the scenes in Jenny's third part in the reshooting schedule, leaving only a relaxed shooting schedule as if on vacation, as well as meticulous medical care - unlike the previous one, who only hired a general practitioner as the crew doctor, this time, the brain expert is on standby in the crew, as long as Jenny is the slightest uncomfortable, the professional medical team is ready to serve her.

"Thank you, Jerry," Jenny smiled as Jerry came to pick her up from the crew. Bruckheimer hugged him, "Thank you so much for the flowers, I'm much better...... Yes, I think I'll be fully recovered when we get back to the U.S. to film......"

"It's the crew who want to thank you, Jenny," Bruckheimer said sincerely, "I know you need to rest, but there's no way, we can't keep the location forever......"

The reason why Jenny came in such a hurry after only two weeks of rest is because the crew is about to finish filming on location in Dominica, in fact, after filming these scenes, she can still go back to Hollywood to continue to rest, this is always Johnny's main role film, her shots are not so much, the director team can easily arrange the schedule, so that Jenny can go back to Hollywood to recuperate - or for the Oscars to promote public relations.

After a few polite words with Jerry, and greeting Gore and Johnny, Jenny asked Josh's room number with a clear goal - many crew members who didn't know the truth also exchanged interested looks: in their opinion, the number of times Josh returned to the United States to visit was not enough to say anything, but today Jenny didn't come out to greet the crew, it seems that the newspapers and magazines are right, the relationship between the young couple has indeed gone wrong......

"Josh." Jenny didn't care what anyone else thought, she knocked on the door, waited for a while, and then lost patience and started kicking the door, "Josh. Blanche! Open the door, you idiot, I took a day's flight and drove here from Santo Domingo in the evening, just to see you a day early, open the door! ”

"Jane, Jane!" Mary hurriedly slipped between her and the door, "The doctor said you can't get too excited—"

She gestured to Nicholas, who stepped forward and easily hugged Jenny away, then took a shiny object from his pocket and threw it to Mary.

Mary winked triumphantly at Jenny and opened the door with ease, "-Ta-dah-"

Jenny had indeed spent nearly the day on the road, but it was only 8 p.m. in Santo Domingo, a time that had nothing to do with sleep, and Josh's house was already dark. The sour smell of hemp came out unabashedly, and Jenny coughed a few times in the doorway and turned on the overhead light.

"Well, very good." She glared at the stumbling staff on the couch who had fallen into bliss*, and the brown-haired man twitching on the bed, "Nicholas, please drag them all out." ”

Normally, martial arts are not contaminated with these things, so Nicholas did not have the mentality of being a rabbit and a fox, but stepped forward very happily, one by one, and easily pushed a few marijuana ghosts to the door, "Go back to your room, guys." ”

Mary quickly turned off the air conditioner, opened the window, and cleaned up the still burning chimney...... Jenny was the most direct, she went into the bathroom and put a jar of cold water, motioned for Nicholas to join her, and threw Josh, who was still indulging in hallucinations and muttering.

With the sound of splashing water, Josh screamed - he had finally reacted to reality after being almost unaware of the movement in the outside world, even though his pupils were still large and he had no focus on people. "Hot! God, it's burning me, help me, Help-Help! ”

"That's sucking. What it looks like after poisoning. "Jenny said to Mary that all three of them were standing in the doorway, watching Josh's farce of shouting 'help' to a water pipe." That's why we shouldn't suck for the rest of our lives. Poison. ”

"He didn't smoke a few times," Nicholas sniffed the pipe, "I guess the tobacco was too pure this time, everyone had smoked it, he was a novice, so the reaction was greater—don't look at me, I don't smoke, but my high school was poor." ”

"Will something happen to him?" Mary was a little worried.

"It's okay if you can talk," Jenny looked at her watch, stepped forward and closed the bathroom door, locking it. "You all go back and rest, I'll just wait for him here."

For Nicholas, Josh and Jenny are a real fiancée, so he doesn't resist and gives them private space, but Mary hesitates, "Jane, you must remember that the doctor said you can't get excited...... We're next door, I'll leave the door open, and we'll come over when you yell......"

Jenny gestured to her OK, but she didn't recklessly, "I'll call someone if I need to." ”

Soon after Nicholas and Mary left, the hot and humid sea breeze quickly blew away the sour smell of the house, and Jenny turned on the air conditioner again, pulled out a magazine from Josh's luggage to pass the time, and even took a nap. During this time, Josh has been muttering to himself in the bathroom, if personal feelings aside, his hallucinations are actually quite entertaining, guessing from his babbling that he either thinks that he has been captured by the cannibals of Dominica and is being boiled in a soup pot, or that he thinks he is Jack of the Titanic, who is slowly sinking in the ice water. - Jenny counted the time, and it wasn't until two hours later that the bathroom was quiet.

After another half an hour, Josh began to knock on the door, "Jenny, is that you?" Precious? ”

Jenny walked to the door, "Are you awake?" ”

"I want to throw up," Josh said weakly, "can you hand me a glass of water?" Jen, can you open the door? ”

"I can, but I don't want to." Jenny said honestly, "I'm afraid I'll want to pump it when I see your face—but the doctor said I can't exercise vigorously and I can't get too emotional." ”

"Jane......" Josh seemed to hit his head on the door panel, "I...... I'm sorry......"

There was a flurry behind the door, followed by Josh's vomiting and the sound of water from the shower...... After ten minutes, Josh knocked on the door again, "Are you still there, Jane?" ”

"I'm still here." Jenny sighed, "I know you're having a hard time right now, Josh, and I'm sorry I have to bother you at this time to make your mood worse, but I can't help but tell you, Josh, it's not just Claudia who is so disappointed in you, I'm also sorry for you—I can't describe how disappointed I am in you, Josh, your selfishness and childishness make me sick." Your ugliness now only makes me look down on you more, and believe me, if Claudia knew what you are now, she wouldn't change her mind, she would only be more glad that she made the right decision. ”

Josh made an angry noise behind the door and he began to shake the doorknob desperately, "Jenny! Let me out—"

"Nope." Jenny said, "I don't open the door, Josh. Blanche, you're a selfish, vain, irresponsible, complacent little guy who thinks you can have it all, and you know what the truth is? The truth is that no one is special, the world is fair to everyone, and you're not the lucky one, Josh, the matter was predestined when you and Claudia negotiated a relationship contract - no, it was predestined when you and Claudia discussed Anna's request that Anna not expose their relationship, and when you tolerated Anna's denial of Claudia's looks, don't tell me you don't know. ”

There was a dead silence in the bathroom, and Josh stopped shaking the doorknob.

"You've been using this to get everything, 'I'm a good guy, I'm going to sacrifice for you,' you put on this face, and then everybody will say, 'No, Josh, you're a good guy, let's sacrifice for you'—and then you're going to put on an embarrassed face and enjoy your victory, and you don't have to pay for it, you can enjoy the fruit. Josh, you're very good-looking, so the world seems to favor you, and you think that's how the universe works, and that's what makes you the most vicious - you're a very smart boy, and you can understand Claudia's feelings, but you just don't want to understand, and you're willing to continue to be so naïve and kind, because the game has always been in your favor. Jenny shook her head, "And now, you're putting on a wounded face, what are you doing, Josh?" If you really can't live without Claudia, and you really love her so much, then you won't agree to Anna's offer in the first place...... Josh, Nopainnogain, you've got what you've gained, it's time for you to pay the bills, so, stop acting like Claudia hurt you, the opposite is true, it's you who have been hurting her, you're using her love for you to manipulate her, you're an out-and-out asshole, she's a very courageous girl, and eventually she severed the oppressive relationship between you, and I'm happy for Claudia - she's my friend. ”

She kicked the door hard, "And you-Josh. Blanche, I'm very disappointed in you, but not because you hurt Claudia - you're all my friends, that's between you - but because you paid so much, you hurt a girl you really love, but you don't value what you got her for, what did you trade Claudia for? Wealth, fame, career? You traded her for the opportunity for you to appear on the big screen, you love acting, you love fame, you love these more than you love her! Now how do you want to go through the big. Hemp ruined it all? Do you also want to be a complete Loser, dying of a drug overdose? You want to be the next little Robert. Downey, to jail, to drug rehab, to prison? Is it so hard to pay for what you enjoy? Josh? Tell me, is it so hard to take responsibility for everything you've done? ”

It was like a wounded beast was wailing in the bathroom, Josh might be crying, maybe he was roaring, but either way, Jenny was glad she didn't have to see it, because it was always a bit embarrassing to witness a man's lowest ebb and worst.

"You saved me," she said, since knowing that Josh pumped big. The anger that Ma had been roaring and wandering in his heart slowly faded. "Twice - the newspapers didn't say it, but they told me, and this time you jumped down first to save me...... Josh, I really appreciate you, I would have died without you - twice. ”

For some reason, she suddenly became agitated, and Jenny said with tears in her eyes, "I think we've been in this together, Josh, we've been looking out for each other, and I didn't think I'd ever leave you behind, but -- but if you continue like this -- I'm going to have to leave you, I'm really going to have to leave you." This is my first and last attempt to save you, listen to me, no matter how sad you are - you can't suck. Poison, this is a road from which there is no turning back in the first place. You can go back to your hometown and open a café, you can travel the world, you can do whatever you want – but you can't go on any longer. ”

She turned the key and unlocked the door, "Tobacco and smoking utensils are on the bedside table, no matter what, it's your choice." ”

There was no movement in the bathroom, and Jenny shook her head and turned to walk to the door.

As her hand touched the doorknob, there was a 'squeak' in the direction of the bathroom, and Josh walked into the bedroom with red eyes, dripping wet - he was dripping from head to toe.

His hands were still shaking, but his movements were firm, Josh opened the window, threw the tobacco towards the shore, and the metal smoking device was thrown into the trash, and then he pressed the call button. "Room service...... Please take the garbage bag away from the door of room 408. ”

His voice was hoarse, almost choked at first, but slowly became more and more stable. Jenny stepped out of the way and opened the door for him, and Josh wordlessly put the garbage bag in the doorway, then turned around and hugged her tightly.

It was a stinky hug, and Jenny was almost breathless from the smell of marijuana, but she tried to hold on to Josh a little bit of leaning on - all she could offer him now.

"So." After a long time, Josh whispered, "Can you arrange a meeting for me and Cesare?" ”

"So," Jenny breathed a sigh of relief, she almost didn't hold up Josh's weight, "you're not going to quit?" ”

"You sound happy." Josh said he tried to joke, but it didn't work, and his tone was soaked in sadness.

"I'm glad indeed," Jenny said bluntly, "that you've lost Claudia, and now you're giving up Hollywood, so you don't have any stable connection to the world...... You're rich, you're bored, you're depressed — yes, trust me, I really don't want to see you in a drug rehab facility. ”

"yes, I can't give it up, it's all I have......" Josh laughed, he hugged Jenny tightly, and the laughter made her dizzy - Josh almost roared and cried in laughter, "You're right, I love it so much, I gave up Claudia for it, and now I only have it......"

The author has something to say: It's updated, I'm sorry, it's a little late, I was going to write to the previous paragraph, but after revising it, I think it's better to add the next paragraph and end this matter. ――Although it's a single update these days, the number of words is more than 7K, which is a lot.

Anyway, the knocking on the wall stopped, but the electric drill began...... Hey, anyway, everyone knows how the decoration is, so I don't need to say more.

Finally, I pushed down my friend's text, ancient sayings, everyone who is interested can take a look,
