Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 492 Sleeping
This set of combined movements made Roy squint his eyes, and let him know something that even Laila hadn't discovered.But he wasn't worried, how could such a kitten be his opponent, so he just smiled playfully.Fortunately, there are no girls in the coffee shop, otherwise I don't know how many people have fallen into the pit because of this smile.

"Leila, we all want to know, did you choose which superhero movie you're going to do?"

Owen finally asked this question after taking a deep breath.At first, he didn't feel how restrained he was in front of her, but when he found himself missing her uncontrollably and couldn't help but collect all the information about her, he understood what he wanted.It was also at that time that he found that he could no longer communicate with her as easily as before.

"This question." Laila was stopped by the question, "Actually, I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I still haven't settled on it."

There are many good choices in the film history of later generations that she knows, such as those who appeared in the Avengers, Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, etc., each of which has a huge fan base, each of which also has With its own unique charm, it can be said that it is no problem to choose anyone.Because of this, she didn't know which one to choose, so she couldn't choose by drawing lots with her eyes closed, right?
And then she started working on "Chicago" again, and gradually put it behind her.Anyway, there are still several months until the end of the year, and it will not be too late to bring it up at that time.But at this time, she definitely couldn't say that she had postponed who to choose. Wouldn't that hurt the hearts of these comic fans too much?
Owen didn't think much about her words, because it was also a difficult choice for him.He also likes a lot of superheroes, and it would be a big challenge for him to pick a favorite among them.

Before Lila could find an excuse to make amends, Aiden and several people exclaimed from the direction of the bar.

"God! What the hell happened?"

Laila looked over there, and saw that the TV hanging on one side of the bar was playing NBC's emergency news--the burning twin towers!

911 is finally here!

Lyra hurried to Roy's side, leaning on him blankly, drawing warmth from him.Watching the strong fireworks on the TV, she seemed to be able to hear countless screams and cries for help. In fact, she could have saved them, but for her own sake, she chose to keep silent...

Did she do something wrong?No!She doesn't think she did anything wrong.People don't kill themselves, she finally had a new life, and she didn't think she was a superhero who could save the world, and there was nothing wrong with letting history run on its own track.It's just that she couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart. She did protect herself, and she did give up the lives of those people.

Roy felt her panic, and he hugged her tightly in the same shock.

Not only him, everyone in the coffee shop, the entire United States and even the entire world are all focused on the twin towers that are emitting black smoke at this moment.

At this time, only one tower was hit, and Laila knew very well that the same thing would happen to the other tower in the near future, and then the two tall buildings would collapse in flames, becoming the United States that still cannot heal after more than ten or twenty years. of a scar.

"Roy, I don't want to watch it, let's go back." Laila closed her eyes, unable to watch any more.Those scenes that I have seen countless times in the previous life, I thought they were numb, but I didn't expect to see it so scary now.

"Okay, let's go home." Roy just thought she couldn't bear such a terrible shock, hugged her tightly and walked out of the coffee shop.At this time, the other people in the store didn't even notice that they had left, and they all stared at the scene on TV with disbelief, unblinking, as if the world was ending.

Back home, Laila went into the bedroom on the pretext of being uncomfortable.Because Roy was worried about her, he came in several times and saw her sleeping.

This is not surprising, since September, her mind has been tense like a taut bowstring.Today, the thing she had been worrying about finally happened, and the string was snapped, allowing her to make up for all the lost sleep time.

She slept for a day and a night.Both Roy and the housekeeper were terrified, thinking she was sick, and called the family doctor over.However, after the doctor's examination, she found that she was just too tired, and told her to pay attention to the balance between work and rest, not to work too hard, and left without even prescribing a medicine.

Seeing that she was really sleeping, Roy and the others finally felt relieved.

And while Laila slept, all of America was in turmoil.From TV, people know that those hijacked planes not only destroyed the Twin Towers, but also attacked the Pentagon.This horrific terrorist act has caused unprecedented losses.

Laila was in a coma, and it was Roy who called Moran's house to confirm the situation, and he was relieved after making sure that everyone was safe.

He didn't know how shocked Channing's heart was when he saw the report of the attack on the Twin Towers.What he thought of was what Laila said the other day, and how much he would have lost if he hadn't been forced by his wife to do what Laila asked him to do. This complicated feeling of being lucky and satisfied couldn't be expressed in words. told.

And Laila, who was in a deep sleep, was completely ignorant of everything outside, and she was having a dream at this time.In the dream, she saw how she lost her dignity and flattered her in order to win the sponsorship for making a movie, and also saw how helpless and disappointed she was when she was making the only movie.

Then she saw her own funeral, and saw some people with blurred faces crying.She couldn't see who it was, but she could feel the dull pain in her heart.It seems that some people who have worked with her before can cry like this, it seems that she is doing a good job, isn't it?
"Laila—"

It was as if a call from the sky floated into her ears, softly, gently, like a feather stirring her heart.

Finally, everything in front of her eyes dissipated, she opened her eyes suddenly, and saw Roy with a bearded face leaning over to wipe her face.

"Little lazy cat, you finally woke up." Although the doctor assured her that she was just asleep, Roy was still worried when she didn't wake up.Seeing that she finally opened her eyes, he finally put his hanging heart back into his chest.

With his help, Laila sat up, her hands and feet felt weak, and she couldn't use any strength: "Did I sleep for a long time?"

"It's been a day and a night, do you think it's been a long time?" At this point, Roy looked at her with a fierce look: "Do you know how tired your body is? The doctor said, during this time You have to rest, better give yourself a vacation and stop thinking about those scripts and movies! If I see you touch those scripts before you recover, just wait and see!"
