Chapter 544 Blackmail
It is not a big news that a major Hollywood star has an illegitimate child, because it has happened too many times in the past. For example, Jack Nicholson did not dare to do a DNA test and settled the matter out of court.
But in addition to being a Hollywood star, Martin also has another identity—an American hero.
Media reporters gathered on both sides of the red carpet, and the organizer's security personnel were watching eagerly, ready to pounce at any time.
Bruce knew very well that he had to get the person away first before saying anything else: "You can talk to Martin in person."
Toni still had illusions about Martin. She held the child in her arms and followed Bruce towards the hotel door with a determined expression.
Midway, she looked back.
Oben nodded to Toni.
These days, he has been considering various development possibilities based on the situation told by Toni, the general environment in the industry, and Martin Davis's own tough character.
Daben has been a screenwriter and director. The former has won an Oscar, and the latter is also very talented. Based on the "facts" mentioned by Toni, it is not difficult for him to make further deductions. He has also done various things for Toni based on this. Psychological presupposition.
Toni told him that Martin had a relationship with her and the children were born.
When Ben thought of this, he suddenly laughed. Martin Davis would definitely reject it. Only after rejection will the excitement come true!
In some respects, it was exactly as he expected. Faced with the so-called illegitimate child that suddenly came to his door, Martin could not admit it, because it was definitely not the case.
Entering the hotel door, the experienced Nicholson reminded Martin: "If you did it, or you are not sure, give a sum of money and spend it quickly. The longer you delay, the more trouble you will have."
Leonardo didn't think this was a big deal and gloated: “By the way, think carefully about how to explain it to your girlfriend.”
“It has nothing to do with me.” Martin said seriously first, then patted Leonardo on the shoulder: “Sorry, I messed up your activities.”
Leonardo shook his head: "There's no need to talk nonsense between us. Let's take care of it quickly. If you need anything, call me and Jack."
Nicholson asked: "Would you like me to accompany you there? I am very experienced in dealing with illegitimate children who come to your door."
Martin said: "You should stay with Leo. I will call for rescue when needed."
Leonardo and Nicholson continued to participate in their activities. Martin asked someone to ask for a lounge in the hotel and waited patiently.
Not long after, Bruce and Thomas, who hurried over, took Toni into the lounge.
Martin glanced at the baby she was holding. The child had stopped crying and was blinking to observe the world curiously.
Toni came forward and said, "John, look, this is your dad."
Martin took a step back unconsciously, thinking to himself that this woman is crazy!
But he didn't go crazy. Seeing Bruce nodding slightly, he said, “I remember you. At the book signing in Times Square, New York, you came to me for a book signing in your wedding dress.”
"Yes, I'm Toni. I left you a card with my contact information." Toni said these words to Ben many times, and maybe she thought it was true: "After a while, you I was contacted and it didn't take long for me to have John.”
She opened her eyes wide, full of expectation: "John has your blood flowing on him. Take a look. He looks very similar to you."
Thomas turned dark and warned: "Madam, please pay attention to what you say. You are slandering and slandering Martin's reputation, and you will be held legally responsible!"
Toni said: "What I said is all true. If you think there is a problem, I can take John with me for a DNA test!"
These words made Thomas's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Martin, thinking, is it true?
After all, Martin's reputation as a **** spread throughout the United States, and it is not unusual for him to accidentally commit a murder.
It was impossible for Martin to estimate the time, and he remembered very clearly that he had not had any relationship with this woman.
The only time they faced each other head-on was at a book signing in Times Square, New York.
Martin smiled and said tentatively in a kind tone: "Toni, you are a good girl. I don't know what the dispute is between you and Ben Affleck, but I have some personal conflicts with Ben. You and you Don't let your children become tools in her hands.”
Toni hugged the child tightly: "Ben is right, you will only find excuses not to admit it!"
In the past few months, Ben and Toni have gotten along very well. Under the subtle influence, Martin can move her with just a few words.
Martin shook his head with a smile: "You have nothing to do with me, and this child has nothing to do with me!"
Toni discovered that Ben was absolutely right. These Hollywood stars were one thing on the surface but another on the inside, and would never admit to having an illegitimate child.
She said: "Martin, I have devoted countless efforts to this child. If you don't admit it, we will have to meet in court."
Martin asked deliberately: "What if I don't want to go to court?"
Toni patted the child gently: "Admit that he is your son."
Martin guided her without leaving a trace: "I have nothing to do with your son. What if I want to ask you to leave?"
Toni's first reaction was that Martin wanted to pay, just like many stars in Hollywood do.
Daben told her more than once not to talk about money first.
But Toni did all this just for money. Toni is a woman and has her own ideas. The magic of money trumps everything. She said: "For 10 million U.S. dollars, I will sign an agreement with you to leave Los Angeles with John and never come back."
Martin spoke righteously: "I will not accept your threat!"
Toni was also a little angry. A father has assets of 70 to 80 million U.S. dollars, or even hundreds of millions of dollars. Is it too much to give 10 million U.S. dollars to his son and his mother?
She said: "Martin, I will call the police and sue you in court!"
Martin asked: "How much, I didn't hear clearly."
“10 million U.S. dollars!” Toni emphasized again: “As long as you give me 10 million U.S. dollars, I will disappear with John immediately.”
This kind of person who comes here for money cannot be dismissed with words alone. Martin is very self-aware, and he is definitely not as charming as the US dollar.
Martin stood up, feeling that there was no need to talk anymore, because he would not give a dime: "You can do whatever you want."
Toni looked at the child in her hands. She was disappointed with the child's father's ruthlessness, and turned into despair. She said, "I will apply to the court for a paternity test!"
Martin didn't say anything else and walked out of the lounge directly.
Thomas was very worried and quickly caught up from behind and asked, "Are you sure?"
Martin said directly: "Has my brother done it? Does anyone know better than me?"
The three of them entered another room.
Martin said: "I saw Ben Affleck next to this woman named Toni, and there seemed to be Casey Affleck not far away. They were most likely involved in this matter!"
Thomas couldn't understand: “Them? This woman, Lao Bu said, was your former female fan…”
Bruce said: "They first appeared in the Coty community in Sherman Oaks. At that time, media reporters blocked the door and a dozen women came out to dance topless. Later, they also attended a book signing in New York wearing wedding dresses, claiming to be Martin's wife. If I remember correctly, Toni was the one in charge.”
Martin couldn't understand: "She took the initiative to apply for a DNA test. Is she bluffing? Or is she confident?"
Bruce asked: "Some **** secretly ran away with your genetic material and then shared it with her?"
"No, there is absolutely no such possibility." Martin said: "Every time, I watch them swallow it all, not to mention that I didn't use condoms last year..."
At this point, he and Lao Bu both thought: "These women once dug through our trash cans!"
Martin looked at Lao Bu: "It's not yours, is it?"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's definitely not mine!" Bruce also paid attention: "All my money has been used for Kim and Khloe."
Thomas knew who Kim and Kohler were, and looked at Bruce in surprise. This guy was really playing tricks!
Martin frowned: "That's strange." He quickly made a decision: "Find the best private detective to check Toni's whereabouts and career since last year, and see how she got involved with Big Ben."
Bruce nodded: "I have comrades in arms at Pinkerton Detective Agency. As long as the commission is enough, these are minor problems."
Martin asked: “Did you just record it?”
Bruce took out a recorder and pressed the playback button. When Toni said $10 million, he pressed pause.
“Although I don't know what the problem is, I can be sure that that child has nothing to do with me!” Martin, a patient with deep persecution and paranoia, still has this confidence.
If you have had a relationship in the past two years, it is impossible for his things to be leaked out.
If Kate, Julie, Aniston, Daddario, Elizabeth and others hold the child and say it is his, it may be true, but it is absolutely impossible for Toni!
Martin added: "We have always done things upright. Since Toni threatened me with $10 million, call the police. I have been blackmailed."
Thomas confirmed again: "It's not yours?" Seeing Martin nod firmly, he said: "Okay, call the police."
Martin took out his mobile phone and said to Thomas: "Go find Leo. He is hosting this event. Tell him about it. I will borrow his venue to hold a temporary press conference."
Thomas nodded and immediately went to find Leonardo.
Martin pressed 911, dialed the police number, waited for the answer, and said: "I am Martin Davis? Yes, Martin Davis, honorary citizen of Los Angeles, I encountered a man at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel A woman's extortion, the other party threatened me and extorted a huge sum of 10 million US dollars from me..."
911 in Los Angeles has a special list, and Martin is one of them.
After answering the call, the operator quickly reported the situation.
Martin, on his side, found McClain's phone number and said directly: "I have encountered blackmail, and the amount is as high as 10 million US dollars..."
McLean didn't waste any words and said he would come over in person soon.
At almost the same time, Leonardo announced at the event that a simple press conference would follow.
