Sending Hayley home, the two of them were tired of staying in the car for a long time, Winston and Hayley put their foreheads against their foreheads, and he said softly

"Wait for me, okay?"

"I can't wait to announce to the world that you are my wife." Hayley was amused by Winston's reaction.

She didn't expect that Winston was so old that he had a marriage, and he would look like a hairy boy when he talked about love.

But when she thought of Ms. Patti who she had seen today, she understood a little. Probably Winston and Patty are an emotionless marriage pair!

Seeing Hayley enter the house, Winston returns to the governor's office and calls Taylor after learning about a call from Brooklyn.

When Winston called, Brooklyn was stuck in traffic on Hoover Avenue.

"I thought you were kidnapped by aliens and were about to call NASA." Brooklyn quipped.

Winston, familiar with the opening line, leaned back in his chair and kicked everyone out of the office, smiling lightly

"If there is a day when you are kidnapped by aliens, I will definitely remind them not to leave you behind."

"Why don't you think about me about good things?" Brooklyn rolled her eyes. Winston pulled out a cigar and played with it, sniffling

"I'm getting married, that's a good thing, isn't it?" Brooklyn stuck his head out the window, looked up at the sky, and shrank back.

"It's not the end of the world, there's no alien invasion of Earth, and the sun is setting in the west as usual. Everything works fine. So, what are you crazy about? ”

"I've found true love, can't I?" Brooklyn let out a scream

"The end of the world is coming? Is Satan about to come to earth? ”

"Just you? Love it so much? Do you want to see how much you loved in your last marriage? Unconvinced, Winston argued loudly.

The two teased for a while, and then the topic returned to normal.

"I'm probably going to be a bit of a scandal." Winston laid out the plan and the plan

"But two of the three parties have the same voice, and Patti says it's useless." Brooklyn listened quietly to Winston's plan before giving his opinion

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Of course. Mr. Governor fell in love with the young girl J and wanted to marry her as his wife, but the vicious ex-wife blocked him, and even did not hesitate to create false information for this, even if he ruined the poor Mr. Governor, he would not let him be with another woman. ”

"Only then did Mr. Governor realize that both women were in love with him."

"On the one hand, there is a family and a former partner, on the other hand, there is love, Mr. Governor is in a dilemma, Mr. Governor is in pain, and Mr. Governor decided to cancel the wedding in order not to make the two women sad, and he will never see his ex-wife."

"What a touching urban fairy tale!"

"With a little adaptation, you can be on the Broadway stage!" Winston described it in arias. Brooklyn asked coldly

"What if Patty gritted her teeth and refused to release the 'fake'? What if Patty just watched you act? What if Hayley wasn't as innocent as you thought? "These are three important milestones in Winston's overall plan.

Winston went around in such a big circle and made the scene so huge just to get Patty involved, if Patty didn't participate at all, would Winston sing a one-man show alone?

If Hayley hadn't believed that Winston loved her deeply, she wouldn't have kept the promise she had made today, keeping the secret she should have kept for Winston, and at the same time breaking the promise and revealing what she had to reveal for the sake of the man she loved deeply.

If Patty doesn't release the 'fake material', the Daddy tape still hasn't been revealed, even if Winston gets the master tape, even if Patty doesn't copy the tape, but the news is released, it will still have an impact on Winston.

"After all these years with me, Patty has feelings for me." Winston said confidently

"She may not have realized it herself, but by the time I showed up with Hayley, she was out of control."

"I know her personality so well. If you don't get it, you destroy it. When she learns that I am going to marry Haley at all costs, she will inevitably love and hate and try to ruin poor Mr. Governor. ”

"And the best way, and the only way for her, to ruin poor Mr. Governor is to release an indecent video of Mr. Governor."

"There's no way she's going to watch me sing a one-man show, even if she knows it's all acting." Winston said categorically.

"What about Hayley?" Brooklyn asked. At the mention of Hayley, Winston was silent for a moment

"Hayley is a good girl." He sighed

"If she hadn't been in the sex industry, even if she was just an ordinary girl, we might really have a wedding."

"You just love your career and your future more." Brooklyn pierced the nail on the head

"Don't fake tears. I'm going to throw up. ”

"Even if I accept it, Jerry won't accept it." Winston retorted with rare earnestness

"Jerry doesn't want to take it, and I won't either." Brooklyn pouted. He acknowledged that Winston was telling the truth, but was skeptical of Winston's claims.

He couldn't tell whether Winston chose not to accept Hayley because of Jerry or because of the industry Hayley was in.

"After the incident, I will fund her to do what she wants, which is considered to be compensation for her." Winston Road.

Brooklyn thought for a moment and asked seriously

"Aren't you afraid that Hayley will become a second Patty?"

"Winston, I don't think your plan is plausible. Let women fight against women, and it is likely that the final result will be two women joining forces to deal with men. ”

"We don't have much time, what am I going to do if we don't?" Winston asked.

"Directly have a showdown with Patty, tell her that you don't want to continue playing with her, she will make it public if she wants to, and she won't get anything after it is public." Brooklyn thought for a moment and gave advice

"At most, we'll fight a public opinion war with her. It may have some impact on your future. ”

"Winston, sometimes righteousness is more powerful than all intrigue."

"You can rest assured, I won't turn my face and deny people." Brooklyn made a commitment

"I'll wait for you." There was a long silence on the phone. Just when Brooklyn wondered if it was disconnected, Winston's voice came.

"I'm going to burst into tears when you say it." Winston said with a smile. Brooklyn laughed along.

After laughing, he said seriously

"Think about it, Winston, we don't have to be afraid of anything."

"Got it, got it." Winston waved his hand perfunctorily

"I've got to hang up." Hanging up, Winston lit his cigar and stared at the rising smoke in a daze. There was a constant knock on the door, which upset him.

"Get out!" Winston clawed at his hair and yelled. The knocking on the door was gone. Winston was still agitated.

Having been sitting in his office until dark, Winston plucked up his courage and dialed Hayley's phone.

"Hello?" Hayley's soft voice eased Winston's irritation.

"Haven't slept yet?"

"No, what about you?"

"Oh, I ......," Winston glanced at the office

"I'm still working on my side."

"Pay attention to rest, the work is not finished."

"yes, I know." The two fell silent.

"You ......" Winston took a deep breath and hesitated again. He remembered the tape in Patty's hand, the battle of wits with Brooklyn, the journey from strangeness to the present, the position in the party, the applause when he was sworn in, the overwhelming reports, the eager applause of people every time he spoke, and the clear eyes and tenderness of Hayley.

Finally, the image of Jerry rushing into the hotel emerges. His ears seemed to ring the conversation between father and son that day.

"We may not be able to have a wedding." Winston said sleepwalking. After a brief silence, Hayley's nice voice rang out.

"I know."

"Thank you for your candor, Winston."

"I'm sorry." Winston whispered an apology.

"No need to apologize." Hayley is still gentle

"You're a very nice man, Winston, and you can tell you that she loves you."

"Hmm." Winston was so confused that he couldn't hear what Hayley was saying. By the time he came to his senses, he had already hung up.

He vaguely remembered that they had finally said goodnight to each other. Winston rubbed his face, grabbed his coat and headed downstairs.

"Hope you're right, Brooklyn." ……………… Inside a dilapidated apartment. Putting down the old phone, Hayley buried herself in the bed.

A muffled whimper was heard. Gradually, the whimper turned into a howl. ……………… Patti's home.

A sharp knock on the door woke Patty, who came to the door in silk pajamas and a small revolver in hand.

"Who?"

"Me, Winston." Winston stopped knocking on the door and replied. Patty didn't put down her gun, opened the door and stepped back, looking at Winston warily.

Sweating profusely, Winston squeezed into the room, walked to the table and sat down, picked up his cup and poured a glass of water, and drank it all.

This is his home after marrying Patty. He was unusually familiar with everything here. There is always a large jug of water on the table, and the water is always full.

The bottom of the fridge is always filled with black cans of beer, a niche brand he loves to drink. The TV would never turn on, but they kept paying the channel bills — and he even suspected that the TV had long since broken down.

The kitchen was always clean, even excessively clean, as if it hadn't been used. The light in the ceiling of the living room is always not lit.

He repaired it several times, but for some unknown reason, it still broke after repairing. In front of the window, there is always a tree scene, more than one person high, with four branches, like an upside-down stool.

Finally, the gaze returned to Patty. Patty was standing in the doorway with her chest crossed. The bells and whistles silk pajamas she wore didn't match Patty's aesthetic or her temperament.

Winston still remembers that he bought the pajamas when he went to Asia, and it cost him $1,888. Winston surveyed everything in the room and was surprised to find that everything was still familiar.

The familiar layout can't help but bring back familiar memories for him.

"I don't want to play with you anymore." Winston wrenched from his memories and said. Patty raised an eyebrow.

"I know you have a tape of my trick in your hand, and you can use it to control me, but you shouldn't show it to Jerry." Winston said in a low voice.

"I think it's good that he won't become like you in the future. I like to let the little girl call you daddy in bed. Patty crossed her arms and sat down across from Winston.

Place the revolver on the table. Winston couldn't help but glance at the revolver and continued to explain what he meant

"Bring me the video, or send it to any newspaper or TV station, feel free."

"I'm tired and don't want to play with you anymore."

"Patty, I did the cheating, I don't want to argue with you about who is right and who is wrong, if you think I owe you, then think so."

"I'm tired of playing games like this." With that, Winston closed his mouth and said no more.

Patty asked, changing her position, lowering her arms

"Finished?" Winston was silent.

"You're here so late to say this to me?" Winston remained silent. Patty put away her smiling expression and gradually became solemn.

She glanced at the revolver on the table.

"Okay."

"Let's play a game. I won, tomorrow the tape will be in the newspaper, and I promise you to be the most popular AV actor in the world this year. ”

"If I lose, the tape will disappear from this world, and I will disappear before your eyes and never appear in front of you again."

"How?" Without waiting for Winston to agree, Patty picked up the revolver and expertly broke it open, revealing the bullet inside.

She took out all six bullets and poured them on the table. Winston was shown an empty magazine.

Then twist a bullet and put it in the magazine.

"Russian roulette, can you play?"

"This revolver has a total of six slots, and I only have one bullet." Patty flicked the magazine with his thumb, and the small magazine of the revolver spun rapidly, like a windmill spinning in the wind.

With a click, the magazine closed, and Patty slapped the revolver on the table.

"Will you come first or will I come first?"

"You're crazy?!!" Winston shouted in disbelief. Patty scoffed, got up, took out a box of ladies cigarettes from the cabinet and lit them.

"You're still so cowardly, Reilly."

"You haven't changed at all since the day I fell in love with you." She raised her chin at the revolver on the table.

"You go first."

"Hurry up."

"Or do I call the media now and give them a live show of your bedside tricks? Let the citizens of New York see for themselves how excited their elected governor is when he is shouted Daddy? ”

"You're a madman!" Winston growled.

"Oh, I just saw my psychiatrist last week and he told me that I'm not crazy." Patty puffed out a puff of cigarette steadily, thought for a moment, and smiled at Winston

"I'll tell you a secret, it's not a secret."

"When we first got married, you remember your first business trip, right? It was the time I went to a conference in Michigan. ”

"I tried your driver, and he did much better than you."

"It's a pity that your driver later fell ill and died."

"I remember, that's when we had Jerry. Reilly, guess Jerry is your child, or your dead driver's child? ”

"After your driver died, I found out that the two bodyguards you hired were very good."

"Seriously, they're so much better than you." Patty stuck out her tongue and licked her lips

"I enjoyed spending time with them."

"What are you looking at me like that? You're out there, I'm just looking for someone next to you, and we're even. ”

"Later, when you became a councillor, they became more interested in the identity of the councillor's wife, and every time they asked me who was more powerful than the councillor."
