Best Actor

Vol 2 Chapter 43: family troubles

    "You came to me, Mom and... Dad must not know?" Sean handed a glass of water to his sister, then sat back on his lazy sofa, he was completely Trapped in it, it seems very lazy.

    "Why do you think so?" Liana asked in a relaxed tone. She no longer had the appearance of asking for guilt downstairs, but standing there holding a cup, she still carried the momentum.

    "If they knew, you would have come here long ago, instead of waiting for the Independence Day holiday." Sean shrugged, "But to be able to find my new home, it seems that you spent some effort ."

    "Of course, I can manage a lot of people now, and it's no big deal to give them a little less troublesome personal work." Lianna crossed her arms.

    "Oh?" Sean raised his eyebrows, "You've been promoted? That's really gratifying."

    Lianna didn't answer the question, just looked at him: "I don't ask you too much, Sean, at least you have to go home for Thanksgiving this year."

    Sean was silent for a few seconds: "Have Dad seen the movie I starred in?"

    "I don't know, but I should have seen it," Lianna smiled, "You know, even if the old man wants to see it, he will only look at it secretly, and he will not see it if he has seen it. But when the Oscars aired this year, when the best actor was awarded, he watched with his mother for a while."

    After a pause, she snorted softly again: "Of course, don't ask my evaluation, you should also know that the old man will not have any good words."

    "Okay, Lina, don't always talk about the old man." Sean waved his hand, "Anyway, I don't expect Dad to change now, in fact, I think he will be forever Nothing will change.”

    "What? Do you think the title old man is not good? You used it first." Lianna finally sat down, crossed her legs, and looked lightly, "I did it for you. used."

    "Let's change the subject," Sean pinched the bridge of his nose, in front of his sister, he rarely had the upper hand, "I don't think it's a good idea to go back now, Linna, I know my mom misses me and I miss her, but I'm sorry, I really have a lot to do."

    "A lot of things to do?" Lianna sneered, not hiding her dissatisfaction at all, "Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking, Sean? I just saw you roughly This villa is close to 300 square feet, and at least 2.5 million US dollars. It is very good. You make money as an actor, so what? Do you think that will make Dad look good? You also said that he is that People who will not change until they die, admit defeat to their son? Stop joking."

    "I didn't think about letting him admit defeat now, but I will tell that I can do what I want to do by myself, and I can also make a career," Sean sat up straight , looked very serious, "Yes, I only have a net worth of several million now, although I had tens of millions a few months ago, and after various investments, there is not much now, and even the established production company still needs to borrow from the bank. But don't forget, I made it in two years alone, and I'll make more after that, and in two to three years, I'll be worth hundreds of millions!"

    "Really?" Lianna sneered even more, "Why? With you, a newly released star, and your three, who want to open a restaurant and are used to doing sales, And all day thinking about making a big investment to show off your bestie?"

    "I don't expect you to believe anything, Lena, but I will prove it, and I love being an actor, it can make me experience a different life, and in the future, I will get Oscar, become an actor who can leave a record that cannot be ignored in film history!" Sean looked at his sister firmly.

& nbsp; His tone and even the way he behaves."

    "So I left there." Sean spread his hands, not caring about his sister's attitude.

    "I know what you're thinking, Sean, but as I said downstairs, even if you and Dad are irreconcilable, at least think about Mommy." Lianna Slowed down, "Mom misses you very much. She is very happy every time you call, and she has been in the theater three times for the movie you starred in. Shouldn't you go back and see her?"

    Sean was silent. After a while, he sighed and was about to speak, but the phone rang at an untimely time.

    "Who?" Sean answered the phone embarrassedly. After hearing the voice inside, he glanced at Liana with a guilty conscience, and then ran to the balcony.

    Lianna squinted her eyes and gave up her plan to eavesdrop. She had basically guessed who was calling.

    "Okay, I see, I'll be back this Thanksgiving," said Sean, who came back from the phone. "But I can't guarantee what's going to happen."

    "No problem, with my mother and I, it's impossible for you to make trouble, just like before." Lianna laughed, and then became very narrow: "Mom It will be very happy, of course, many girls in the community will also be very happy, after your movie was released, many people came to ask you how you are doing."

    Sean coughed dryly, then changed the subject casually: "So, how about having dinner with everyone tonight?"

    Lianna couldn't help but look disappointed, Sean continued to pretend he didn't see anything, it would be fine if Naomi or Jordana called, he wouldn't mind introducing her . But the problem is, it is Jennifer on the phone, and he is still urging him to perform his obligations in the past. Can he talk to his sister in this relationship?

    "No need," but Lianna didn't care too much, "The Independence Day holiday is very short, and there is still a lot of work after the end, I just came to remind you, don't forget your family, So go now."

    Then she looked at him sternly: "I have to admit, Sean, I haven't seen you in two years, you have changed a lot, you are more mature, temperament and spirit, and you know how to think about others."

    "I'm like this." Sean rolled his eyes, and seemed a little unappreciative.

    "Okay okay," Lianna laughed, "still have that self-esteem, then, do it well, Sean, be a big star, make your own career, and impress everyone ."

    "You too," Sean's eyes softened a lot, "It's hard for you... It's not easy to deal with dad."

    "It's my choice," Lianna shrugged. "As you said before, it's your choice, and you bear the consequences."

    The siblings laughed, there was no tit-for-tat before, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious. Then, although Liana said that she would pass it right away, but after Sean's repeated stay, she stayed for dinner and stayed for one night, and also praised Galen and Sanders, which made the two guys worried for a long time.

    "Is there something wrong with Lianna?" Galen asked Sean in private.

    "What could go wrong?" Sean wondered.

    "It always feels strange that she actually said we did a good job, we have to do better, and then it's over." Sanders continued.

    "Why, isn't it bad to praise you?" Sean was still puzzled, "Aren't you used to being sarcastic without her? Although being acerbic is her normal state, but it's been a long time since I saw you, change There's nothing wrong with it once."

    In this case, Galen and Sanders also gave up the possibility of communication. God knows how Liana will treat them after they have said too much. When she played The King of Fighters with them, she used the rage team to beat them to the bottom of the water. What's the use of doing it well, can she resist the punches and kicks and various threats in reality? So, in case she uses the moves inside...

    If they are like this, Sean will not ask questions. Friends' privacy should still be respected. So he didn't know that his sister also had a credit for being the leader of the four.

    Leave all of this aside for a while, the troubles from the family make Sean very entangled, if he can, he really wants to go back for another two years, but Lianna is right , always think about the mother's feelings. And he has already agreed. If he regrets it halfway, God knows how Lianna will retaliate. Sean has been abused by her before, and if he hadn't resisted desperately, he would have almost been taken out dressed as a little girl.

    But considering that there are still more than four months from Independence Day to Thanksgiving, Sean temporarily put it aside, maybe there will be a better excuse or way, such as bringing his mother to Los Angeles come and so on. So, for now, let's focus on the things that need attention, like what Frederick came over the other day to find what he wanted to say.

    "Look, Sean, how many days have you not been in the media since March?" Frederick complained in the agent's office after the holiday. Said to Sean.

    "As a star, you must maintain a certain exposure rate. If you don't appear in public for a long time, everyone will choose to forget it. People always like the new and dislike the old. Once the audience forgets you, once you become popular If you decline, producers and film companies will forget about you and find other actors to work with, and if you don’t have a work, it will be more difficult for you to attract attention, which will further reduce popularity and eventually turn into a vicious circle.” He said with emphasis.

    "I know, Fred," Sean sighed, "but it's only been three months now, and it's not serious enough - don't tell me, it was too much If it’s too late, after all, I still have works.”

    "Work?" Frederick covered his forehead helplessly, "Of course, even if it's just a cameo in "Charlie's Angels", even if "Death Illusion" is just a low-cost independent film, it's still a work , but the problem is we need something that counts! Got it? Something that counts, Sean!"

    "What did I say?" Sanders, who followed him into the office and sat next to him, laughed at this time, "He's still the same, you need a big production."
