Chapter 424 Big Earthquake
It was getting late, and Martin was ready to go back. For him, such art parties were not fun at all, and were far less interesting than Hollywood parties.
Everyone pretends to be civilized, which reduces the fun by half.
Before leaving, Alexandra came over and asked: "Why don't you call me my friend?"
"Mene? Don't worry about him." Martin glanced at where Mene was: "He has made new friends and seems to be very famous."
Alexandra also looked over there and said, "The person he was chatting with was Celine Dion."
Meine and Celine Dion were standing in front of a sculpture, chatting animatedly. The latter was teased by Mene and laughed from time to time.
Forty-year-old Celine Dion is stuck at the age point where Mene is best at attacking.
Martin would definitely not disturb the old man and said: "Let's go."
Alexandra and Catherine followed Martin out. When they arrived at the front hall, the latter pushed the former and made a secret look.
“The driver has gone back to pick up my father. It may take some time to arrive.” Alexandra's whole body shook as she walked, giving people the feeling that she was always living in an earthquake.
She looked at Martin for help: "Can you use your car to give us a ride?"
As a principled and well-meaning person, Martin certainly would not refuse and said: "No problem."
But Catherine took out her cell phone, shook it, and said, "Don't worry about me. My classmate called me. She will walk from here later and hold me."
She further explained: "She drives a two-seater sports car, which can only seat two people."
Alexandra warned, followed Martin out the door, and got into the Cadillac that Bruce drove over.
Martin asked: “Where do you live? Which borough of Manhattan?”
Alexandra did not answer, but leaned her back completely against the seat and stretched out.
She said: "It's still early, let's find a place to have a drink?"
Martin is always considerate of others. If the other party raises a problem, he will solve it: "I have an apartment on the Upper East Side. I keep a few bottles of good wine there. The apartment overlooks the entire Central Park. How about we go there for a drink?"
Alexandra responded: "Okay, enjoying the beautiful scenery and tasting the wine, it's so romantic."
Martin remembers that after Lily bought the apartment, he asked her to fill the apartment's wine cabinet.
Fifth Avenue is not far from Central Park. The car quickly arrived in front of the apartment that Martin purchased. The two entered the apartment building. Martin swiped his card and took the special elevator upstairs.
The door opened, and Martin found that everything here was brand new and neatly arranged. Lily must have tidied it up before she left.
The apartment will definitely become a mess tonight, Martin thought, should he call Lily and ask her to come over and clean up the house tomorrow?
Looks like a bit inappropriate.
Martin eventually gave up on the idea.
“What a beautiful house!” Alexandra walked out of the entrance, passed through the spacious living room, opened the electric curtains, and what appeared in front of her was the night view of Central Park.
Martin had only seen photos of the house, and it was his first time here. He found the wine cabinet and asked, "What kind of wine should I drink?"
Alexandra's mind was not on drinking at all, and she said, “Let's have a glass of wine.”
Martin took a bottle of Bordeaux and two goblets, and went to the small round table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He opened the wine and poured each of them a glass without making too much trouble.
Alexandra pulled out the chair, sat opposite Martin, picked up the red wine, and asked, "Isn't it easy to buy a house here?"
“It was very difficult, and it took several years.” Martin's words are not an exaggeration. Counting from the time he hooked up with Jolie, it took more than three years to deal with Pitt alone.
Peter is not in ruins, so how can he sell the house here? He has no chance to get it at a super low price.
Alexandra praised: "Martin, you are a very persistent person."
"Patience is not bad." Martin clinked the wine glasses with her: "We are acquainted."
Alexandra took a sip of her wine and said, "I've seen your experience, and it's admirable. Although I haven't experienced that kind of life, I have also been to several chaotic neighborhoods in New York, and it felt very scary. "
Martin smiled: "This country is a paradise for the rich and a **** for the poor."
Alexandra's family is in good condition and she has been to many countries. She said: “Actually, every country is similar, right? When I go to Europe, the poor there are not having a hard time.”
Martin did not continue the topic and clinked glasses with her again: "So, if you have money, you should live as happily as possible."
Alexandra agreed: “Yes, nothing is more important than happiness.”
The two drank a glass of red wine and chatted before entering the bedroom.
This should not be too common in the open New York and entertainment industry.
However, Martin kept the distance between the two of them while sleeping. He suffocated to death again, and there was no chance of returning to North America.
The next morning, when Martin woke up, he found that Alexandra had already gotten up and had not only tidied the bedroom, but also cleaned the living room.
Whether she has other thoughts or not, these at least make people feel comfortable.
When Lily bought the wine, she also prepared clothes. Of course, Martin's clothes all fit, but the women's clothes here were all one-size-fits-all, and when Alexandra wore them, they were a little too tight.
Martin washed up and said, "Today weekend, we will go shopping on Fifth Avenue."
The two went downstairs to have breakfast, drove into a Cadillac in the garage, and went directly to the boutique store area on Fifth Avenue. When he was poor, Martin was very stingy, and the gifts he gave were all made by his own hands.
But after he really got rich, Martin was still very generous and never stingy with spending money.
If you want to have fun, spending money is the most basic thing.
Martin took Alexandra shopping all the way, from Chanel fashions to Hermès bags to Cartier jewelry, spending six figures in half a day.
The clown statue and the crocodile pendant have no chance to appear for the time being.
Martin also has plans for these, and will definitely deliver them to Alexandra when she leaves the crew.
Otherwise it would be unfair to the Australian bison and crocodiles.
On weekends, there are many people in the hotel bar.
Bruce asked Mene to go out for a drink together.
He asked, "Seeing as you had a pleasant chat with Celine Dion yesterday, why did you come back tonight?"
Mene shrugged: "I heard from Celine that her husband would make several calls every night to check on her."
Bruce sighed: "Poor Queen."
However, Mene has a special and keen feeling for people of this age: "She was abducted when she was a teenager and kept in a cage. She got married before she even figured out what life was about. My decades-old husband is not very good at that. He even had a child through in vitro fertilization. He has been a good wife and mother for half his life, and now he is ready to make a move. "
Bruce brought a bottle of beer to Mene and said, "Man, you are really good at riding a horse, and it all shows."
Mene said: "Aren't all people of their age like this?"
Bruce suddenly remembered something. Jin's mother looked at him like a wolf.
No, it seems that there is also Jin's stepfather.
Bruce couldn't help but sigh: Life is too dangerous. If you are not careful, you will overturn, and the consequences of overturning seem to be very serious.
Mene drank a glass of beer with Lao Bu and asked, "Where is the boss? He hasn't come back yet?"
“I guess it's cool somewhere.” Bruce said casually.
Meine originally wanted to ask one more question, but an emergency news bulletin suddenly appeared on the TV hanging high in the bar. A major earthquake had occurred somewhere in the Pacific Ocean.
"This station has received the latest news. A major earthquake has occurred in the Mariana Islands. The Twin Peaks, the highest active volcano on the island, is shaking violently. Because the volcano is about to erupt, the snow on the top of the snow-white peaks has melted. The tops of the peaks have swelled, and the volcanic lava is flowing. dye the peaks red,"
"It is reported that the epicenter of this earthquake was located in the deepest part of the Mariana Trench. The violent vibrations caused the trench to crack and shrink. The squeezed seawater bubbled and rolled and washed up on the coast. This disaster lasted for a long time and has no tendency to stop. ”
Bruce also saw the news and was stunned.
Before evening, Alexandra received a call from home and was about to go home.
Martin drove her back.
When the Cadillac stopped in front of an apartment building, she was about to get out of the car.
Before getting off the bus, Alexandra kissed Martin passionately again, and said after a long time: "When you want to find me, you can call me at any time. Even if you are in Los Angeles, I will rush there as quickly as possible." past."
Martin took a brand new iPhone from the back seat, handed it to Alexandra, and said, "This is for you."
Alexandra kissed him again, got out of the car with a few handbags, came to the door of the apartment building, turned back and stood in front of the door, and waved to Martin.
Martin honked the car horn and drove away.
Alexandra carried her things upstairs, opened the door and went in. She moved out of the house after she was 21 years old and lived here alone.
Of course, my parents live in a nearby building.
“Are you back?” Catherine ran out of the side bed, her face flushed because she had drunk a lot of wine.
Alexandra frowned: "Where did you go to the party? You drank secretly again."
Catherine smiled and came over to hug her sister: "That's why I came to your side and will stay here tonight."
For some girls, how strict their parents' discipline is is how rebellious they are. Catherine asked: “It seems like you succeeded?”
Alexandra put away the things she had brought and said, "Shut up if you can't speak, and I will treat you as a mute."
Catherine was sitting on the sofa with a gossipy look on her face: "How about you tell me?"
Alexandra didn't want to talk to her.
Catherine added: "We are sisters, and we should share good things together."
Alexandra turned around and stared at Catherine with a very oppressive feeling: "I'm warning you, don't mess around."
Catherine nodded subconsciously: "I understand."
Alexandra Fire and Burglary Protection Catherine.
