super actress

Seeing that Rhea didn't intend to reach out to accept it, Ms. Esther twitched her eyebrows slightly and confirmed to her: "This one is the real one."

"I hope to get your understanding, I just want to avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings."

If this wasn't the etiquette instruction class, Rhea didn't even want to answer. She felt that all of this was inexplicable, crazy, and it wasn't that she actively wanted to rely on it.

If there is something that cannot be said properly, it must be tested in this way.

Rhea resisted the urge to turn around and leave and nailed her feet in place, "Then you can rest assured, there is no misunderstanding here."

"I think there's been a misunderstanding between us now." Ms. Ethel stretched out her hand to fix Rhea's jaw. The veins on the back of her thin hand were wrinkled, but her fingertips were still soft due to proper maintenance, so Rhea wouldn't feel uncomfortable, but Rhea didn't like the sight of sizing up and evaluating.

As a teacher, Ms. Esther is undoubtedly qualified. She is indeed guiding Rhea seriously, even being too strict, "Please forgive my suspicion, I really can't have confidence in a strange girl."

While arranging Rhea's hands, feet and waist like a mannequin, she stated things in a didactic tone, "Your identity is indeed embarrassing, isn't it? I have to make sure that you are not harmful."

The tucked in stomach and chest up posture is nice but uncomfortable. Ms. Esther is not only asking her to straighten her back, but also asking her to straighten her spine. Of course it is impossible, but Rhea thinks that is what the other party asks for. .

Rhea learned to behave well the next day, so far she has not been beaten again, she controlled her breathing and looked at the other party carefully, lest a single move would disrupt all previous efforts.

"It's only been a day, and you've already confirmed it?"

In fact, she shouldn't provoke the other party, but Rhea couldn't help it. Up to now, what she's thinking about is to let this Ms. Se, who can look cold even with a smile on her face, admit her hard work and excellence, and that's what she did.

Ms. Esser frowned, "That letter didn't impress you at all."

It's strange to be moved.Rhea endured her displeasure and showed the other party the poses she had learned the day before, proving that she had been practicing after returning.

She imitated Ms. Esther and returned a reserved and standard smile, which was empty and emotionless: "I am only 16 years old this year."

"Girls at this age are most likely to have

realistic fantasy. "

"Then I won't have fantasies about boys who are younger than me." Rhea's fake smile was maintained a little reluctantly, "Also, isn't it impolite to forge other people's letters?"

The other party's reply waved the pointer in his hand, "Your chin is too far forward. Hand!"

She quickly received the first punishment of today's class, and she will not have a good time in the next class time. Rhea was so annoyed that she almost wanted to tear up the letter she received. Even after going back, she was also furious .

The assistant didn't even accost her, but respectfully sent her back to the residence.

Finally, Rhea couldn't help complaining to the assistant: "Holm, do I look like a dick?"

"No, of course not!" Holm shook his head in confusion, "I thought this title was used to describe an elderly adult with a pervert."

Rhea is not yet an adult, not to mention that she herself was a victim of rape, Holm doesn't quite understand why Rhea would ask this question.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a little angry." Once back in her place, Rhea relaxed a lot, and she didn't have to talk around, "I have been accused of seducing a 14-year-old boy. I think this accusation is completely insulting. I!"

"It's just what I encountered in school before, and I still feel uncomfortable when I think about it." In order to dispel Holm's doubts, Rhea overshadowed this matter with a few words, although it sounds unreal, but It was impossible for Home to figure out what happened, so he could only accept this explanation.

"It is absolutely impossible for me to be interested in boys who are younger than me." Please, she dare not fall in love with the opposite sex of the same age, although no one will feel that something is wrong, but Rhea can't pass that threshold in her heart.

After all, her 16 years are not real.

She would never do anything to underage men, Rhea didn't have that disgusting habit.

"This is far from being a pedophile, Rhea." Holm accepted this well, "What's the difference, it's just a 2-year gap, if you really like it, it's nothing to be 2 years younger." And she Also took it in the wrong direction.

"That's only 14 years old!"

After renting a car in the UK, Holm shrugged while driving, "14 years old is almost developed."

"evil……"

Converting this age to China is junior high school. Rhea still finds it unacceptable. This may have something to do with the physical differences between the East and the West. Westerners are basically mature at the age of 14 or 15, and they can even try sex and love boldly. Orientals develop

Later and more conservative.

Holm turned his head and looked at Rhea, "Even if I am your assistant now, I have to say, Rhea, you are too old-fashioned, is it possible that you really want to wait until you are 18 before falling in love? "

After briefly looking at each other, Holm showed surprise, "Could it be that after that you really never..."

She was referring to what happened four years ago. The child abuse case in Queens, New York, did not become a national sensation until after "Lolita" was released.

The public reaction is so big, then those neighbors and former classmates will only be more shocked. Rhea has not been back for a while, she is worried that the rumors will affect her parents, and she is trying to persuade them to move. She is looking for It's a new home, but the Parker couple are reluctant to leave their residence.

Fortunately, the direction of public opinion is in her favor. No matter what they think in private, people dare not criticize her on the surface, otherwise they will appear mean and indifferent.

Although Rhea didn't want to admit it, her "virtuous" behavior during school has won her unanimous praise, because only when her purity is confirmed, the public is willing to sincerely believe that she is a "good" victim, so even more Stand by her side with confidence.

This trend of public opinion made Rhea herself feel absurd. She didn't stop dating because of this. When Ken Sangshan suggested that she emphasize this matter, she had some resistance.

Holm thought it was a public relations campaign, and it wasn't true, that's why she was surprised. Rhea smiled mockingly, "No time, no mood."

Finding that Rhea is really the type of good girl who cherishes herself, Holm spoke with a little more caution in his tone, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this to you."

Maybe she didn't realize it, but now her apology was more sincere than before.

When Holm turned to drive, Rhea sighed helplessly: "It's okay, it's a good thing for my agent anyway."

But whether her agent will always feel that way, Rhea doesn't know.

"How on earth did she think of those words?"

Opening the letter received today, Rhea couldn't help recalling the content of the previous letter, and she shivered secretly.

In fact, what people wrote to her was just a normal thank-you letter, but it took more than a year for it to be delivered to her. By the way, I hope to get to know each other.

This is the thinking of normal people, she still lives in the normal world, Rhea is completely relieved.

Tone.

The first letter was also written very implicitly, almost as a confession of love, so Rhea felt so inexplicable, and now thinking about the kind of words and sentences, it is very awkward, even the literary teenagers of the British Empire are not so nasty, she The reason why she didn't notice that something was wrong was because Rhea felt that the whole thing was very wrong.

So it doesn't seem strange that this is wrong.

It was absolutely impossible for Rhea to reply to the previous letter, but this one——

"I'm sorry my thanks were so hasty, but I couldn't convince them. I don't know what happened to you after that, but I spent quite a bit of time with a psychiatrist, and in order not to reveal anything unusual, they did something different. I invited a psychiatrist to the school so that I could go to class 'normally'."

"I hope my behavior of going to Rodin Girls' School in Brighton didn't bother you. I know that there are always all kinds of problems in noble private schools. Believe me, as the number one private high school in the UK, the problems of Eton College are only It would be bigger, they wouldn't tease me to my face, but there were always some nasty pictures of my family circulating around the school, and it bothered me for quite a while.

Maybe this matter will not affect anything, but I hope this can help you solve some troubles. "

"Please forgive them for what they did, although I don't know how they solved it, but I don't think it will be any better, because usually everything is pretty bad."

"Although I know you can find a suitable etiquette guide, I still ask my teacher to help you. I hope you will not feel offended..."

This is not like a letter that a 14-year-old boy can write, the tone is too precocious, but Rhea has to admit that she actually feels a lot better in her heart.

Rhea suddenly felt a little guilty. She had already sold the medal to Andrewitt. In the eyes of adults like them, this matter was over, but William, who was the person involved, did not feel that this matter was over. up.

He was still looking for opportunities to repay Rhea, and she didn't think of William when she came to England again after a year, but the other party was still paying attention to her.

Without struggling for too long, Rhea wrote a reply letter.

Whether this is Ms. Esther's second trick or not, whether or not this letter can be delivered to the other party, it is none of her business. Regarding the goodwill shown in this letter, she just expressed her due respect. grateful.

"You know you can send it straight to Eton?"

see back

It was rare for Ms. Esther to ask such a question without ridicule.There is a mailing address in this letter, and Rhea can send it by herself.

"Do we have to play charades like this? Anyway, I gave it to you, and you can tear it up and throw it away, as long as you don't do it in front of me."

Her guide didn't express anything, but she showed a look of surprise after listening: "Oh, Miss Nollen, what you said is really vulgar!"

Yeah, as elegant as it is to make a fake letter.

But she is getting used to this perfect lady who is a bit hypocritical. Ms. Esther is not a bad person, but the two of them have different positions, and unfortunately, they are both a problem for each other. .

This can completely explain the situation that they now hate each other.

Two weeks would pass quickly, and Rhea was about to finish this dreadful course, and Ms. Esther's smirk hung on for as long as she had been studying.

It wasn't until the last moment that they all smiled a little more genuinely.

"You're not making slow progress, Miss Nolen." After being indifferent for a week, in Rhea's eyes, that was an extremely indifferent attitude, and Ms. Esther finally let go and said a word of praise.

At present, there is no words that can comfort Rhea more than this sentence. A few more princes are not as important as this lady's appreciation and recognition. Rhea breathed a sigh of relief on the spot: "Thank you for your guidance, during this time I have learnt a lot."

"Our class isn't over yet, I think you need a practice test."

Before the excited emotional state passed, Rhea choked again: "...Okay."

Ms. Esser stared at Rhea for a moment, her eyes oscillating between stern scrutiny and subtle appreciation, and finally she simply said: "I taught you for two weeks, and now you are my student. .”

"I will take you to a party, please don't disappoint me, Miss Noren."

The translation meant that it would embarrass her to memorize gender for a long time. Rhea understood Ms. Esther's meaning, "I understand."

This two-week trip that is coming to an end makes Rhea finally feel in the mood to go shopping. She can choose some gifts for her family. Although she bought it once before, but this time she has more money in her hand, so it is better to buy some. of.

When shopping, the assistant asked her: "Since you are going to a cocktail party in England, shouldn't you start preparing dresses or something?"

"I'm going to rent one directly." Wait until the participation is over before returning it,

Not only celebrities do this, girls who can't afford evening dresses will choose this way, nothing special.

Rhea was worried that Ms. Esther would eventually sue James Cameron to cheat her. After all, the famous etiquette teacher in name was hired by the director, and she hung up the name of the enemy in front of Cameron some time ago. , so Rhea cautiously wandered around the clothing area with her assistant for a while.

It is worth mentioning that she was recognized by someone in the UK, and Rhea signed a group of people.

Not because of "Lolita," but because of her movie that's in theaters now.

Although "Romeo and Juliet" has not been favored by many film critics, the film's box office in North America has been rising all the way, and it is obviously welcomed by the audience.

As expected by professional film reviewers, the handsome Romeo and the beautiful Juliet fall in love. Even if the film is a mess, there will be audiences who value the actor's appearance and are willing to buy it. The plot of the story has raised this love movie to a higher level.

Its top box office title in the first week of its release has proved the commercial value of the film. If the two major countries in the North American market, the United States and Canada, only received enthusiastic response from audiences, then the overseas European market has a strong response.

Especially Britain, the country that gave birth to the poet Shakespeare has always loved Shakespeare, which can explain why "Romeo and Juliet" is so popular here.

Rhea always felt that the country was somehow at odds with her, but the box office figures proved that the British people still welcomed her.

Relying on the brand relationship and the star effect of being recognized, Rhea borrowed a Dior one-piece dress. Although the brand did not clearly express their emotional bias, Rhea felt that they should press her on the Oscar red carpet show. Satisfied with Sharon Stone's performance.

Well, clothes, shoes, hair, makeup, temperament, everything is there.

Even though she was only here to take the classical aristocratic class, Rhea learned a lot of modern British etiquette, and she felt that she was not at a loss.

Then Ms. Esther pierced Rhea's swelling emotions during a face-to-face meeting, "Stay by my side, Miss Nolen, don't rush to express yourself, I will introduce you at the right time."

"Or I can hide myself from people's sight and accompany you through the whole party unobtrusively." Rhea smiled at her, the smile was not elegant but kind of cute

, "You need a chaperone, don't you?"

Consciously discovering Ms. Esther's secret, Rhea became much bolder: "Don't worry, I'm very experienced in this kind of thing, I won't embarrass you."

Even if there is no so-called money and sex transaction, there will always be occasions for beautiful female stars to play the role of vase girl. At that time, it is only necessary to quietly display jewelry and clothing. Rhea has experienced it once or twice.

"I'm very suspicious." Ms. Esther looked Rhea up and down without deliberately, then she sighed softly, raised her head and stepped out of the car first.

Originally, Rhea wanted to ask Home to take her there, but Ms. Esther insisted that she came here in the other's car, probably because she disliked the low-grade car they rented.

Rhea followed Ms. Esther down, she took the initiative to help the other party's arm, Esther did not refuse, they walked in like this, she was still a little confused about the map of Britain, and this was not Holm driving, Rhea did not It is too clear where this is, and it can only be judged from the environment that this is a private estate.

Luxury cars with champagne, gentlemen and ladies, Rhea understands Ms. Esther's scruples. There really can't be mistakes in this kind of occasion, and everyone should have a company by their side.

If she hadn't been tempered for a period of time, maybe Esther wouldn't have chosen her.

It didn't take long for them to come in when someone came over with a drink to talk to, and the social talk would go around Rhea, "Why don't you introduce this young lady to me?"

"She is my current student."

Usually after Ms. Esser finished this sentence, the other party nodded as if she had said it all, and then chatted with Rhea again. In fact, they didn't know anything.

Ms. Esther really thought too much, and was eager to express herself. Rhea wished to become invisible, "When can we leave here?"

It’s okay if it’s for film socializing, but the problem is that the people she meets here are basically disconnected from her circle, so Rhea is particularly impatient.

"Don't worry." She patted the back of Rhea's hand gently, but Ms. Esther was not angry, "Stay for another hour or so."

"And then you can go?"

Rhea's etiquette teacher smiled wholeheartedly for the first time, shaking her head at Rhea and sighing, "I find you a little arrogant, Miss Nollen, but it's not an overly bad flaw."

Holding the champagne in his hand, Rhea turned around for a century without taking a sip.

She hasn't even touched the food, Ms. Esther won't allow it.

Hearing this comment, Rhea just twitched the corner of her mouth helplessly.

Ha, being judged arrogant by an arrogant person, Rhea didn't know what else to say.

But Rhea soon understood what Ms. Esther was doing, because when they finally left the hall, she was taken to a small garden with few people.

It was obvious that someone was waiting for her.

"I can't believe you still do this kind of thing!" Rhea immediately let go of Ms. Esther's hand, and she lowered her voice: "What do you think this is, besides teaching etiquette, you are still Does the royal family introduce women in private?"

She modified her words even when she was concerned about the occasion. In fact, what Rhea wanted to say was female votes and female support.

Of course, the other party stopped her severely: "Miss Nolen!"

But Rhea ignored it, she just shook her head in disbelief, "What's wrong with you people? Can't you just say something directly?"

"Please don't blame me for thinking too much, but I really don't like the atmosphere of this secret meeting at all. You guys make it look like something illegal and criminal!"

"Sorry." A person who made Rhea feel strange walked out of the shadow of the bush. When he stood under the night light of the garden, Rhea still felt strange, "I just want to give you a surprise."

Rhea looked at him and looked back at Ms. Esther. She tried to find an explanation, but she probably couldn't find it. "I don't like this kind of surprise."

The atmosphere became awkward, and in the end it was Ms. Esther who broke the silence first, "Miss Nollen, Prince William just wanted to thank you in person."

"It's really 'in person'." Rhea replied with sarcasm, and then she restrained her tone: "I'm sorry, please forgive my rudeness, I was just surprised that I could be received by the royal family."

Rhea responded coldly, Ms. Esther's face was stiff, so the third person became the most excited, "I don't mean to disrespect you, I only have this opportunity to come out to see you, Esther promised me You brought it, so I..."

Noticing that Ms. Esther backed away, Rhea turned her head to look at the other party, so Ms. Esther is here to act as a lookout today?This association made Rhea feel uncomfortable again.

She didn't mean to go to a hidden place with him, but just stood under the light, "You can tell me first."

"I just want-"

Rhea looked at each other vigilantly: "A surprise, I think

Out. "

Maybe her defensiveness is inexplicable, but Rhea thinks that the other party is inexplicable. She can't match him with William. Rhea can recognize the shadow of the boy who used to be, but after a year, he has grown and his height has changed. a lot.

She was able to look down on William before, but now he is as tall as her, maybe taller than her, and they are a little far away, which makes it impossible for Rhea to judge accurately.

Instead of sweeping his blond hair back all the way back, he let his bangs fall docilely across his forehead, making him look harmless.Rhea could still treat him like a child before, but now he is completely like an adult.

Europeans and Americans do grow very fast.

"I have received your reply." Seeing Rhea's displeasure, William said carefully: "I am glad you are not angry, in fact we should award you a medal with a knighthood, but you are not British, they I also feel that I can't speak up, so..."

This attitude worked especially well for Rhea, who frowned and sighed: "No, it doesn't matter, the thing is, we've only met twice, and I feel like we're still strangers. You're going to hurt me by doing that." Scared, I don't even recognize you!"

William also turned around uncomfortably, "Actually, I didn't recognize you a little bit. I thought you were a man when we first met, but you were still playing a man when we met the second time."

Hearing this sentence, Rhea couldn't help asking: "Do I look alike?" As soon as she asked, she regretted it.

But William had already answered her: "You fooled almost everyone."

Knowing that the crisis is over, he finally showed a relaxed smile on his face, "I watched your movie, and your acting is getting better and better."

Although questioning the authenticity of this sentence, Rhea couldn't keep a cold face in this atmosphere. She looked back and didn't see Ms. Esther, but only saw the bright lights of the manor at night. She could see those Silhouettes of toasting people.

After the halftime banquet, Rhea didn't meet William because they shouldn't have had an intersection, and now that he left the party, Rhea didn't know if anyone was looking for him.

She hesitated to make a suggestion: "You should go back."

Having been kidnapped once, the prince still has the courage to stay outside alone. Rhea admires it, but maybe there are actually many bodyguards ambushing around.

The thought of Rhea made her uncomfortable again.

"Rhea." William was silent for a while before speaking: "My parents are getting divorced."

She had the urge to cover the other person's mouth, but

She didn't do that, she just stood there and looked at him in astonishment, "What did you say?"

The reason why Rhea knew the prince was because of his marriage to Princess Kate. Before that, she didn't know that there was such a prince in Britain.

Originally, she was at a loss about the turmoil of the British royal family. It was not until Rhea exchanged in Brighton Rodin for 3 months that she knew the current structure of the British royal family. She knew that William's mother was Princess Diana.

If this incident was exposed, it would definitely be a big news for Britain, but William told her directly.

William looked at her in the night, as if she could save him one more time, "After a while, everyone will know about it."

But Rhea was helpless, in fact, she was not the one who rescued William last time, "I'm sorry."

"At least they will be very happy." William led Rhea away this time, and she couldn't help but follow him. "Political marriage is so bad."

Rhea didn't know how to answer, and the media also commented that this marriage was an incomparably well-matched golden boy and jade girl.

"I will definitely marry the girl I like in the future." When he said this, he really looked like a 14-year-old boy. It seemed naive and irresponsible for a prince with inheritance rights to say such words, but Rhea knew that he Finally did it.

So she didn't refute, but just listened quietly. Rhea felt that her role might be a bosom sister, although she still felt that William's trust in her was too blind.

William stopped her: "Look!"

The fountain placed in the center of the garden spewed out a circle of water in time, surrounded by light bulbs so beautifully, they almost couldn't catch up, no wonder William was so anxious before.

In fact, this kind of surprise can no longer impress Rhea, but she still smiled cooperatively: "Thank you, I am very happy."

"I've always wanted to give you a birthday present, but..."

"I know."

"I've always wanted to know you, I..."

She sort of got what William was up to, maybe he was trying to create a romantic vibe, but Rhea just found it weird and uncomfortable.

Standing there in embarrassment, Rhea began to think that Ms. Ethel was the prescient one. She had a blind spot in her thinking. She had forgotten that no matter how old she was, she was really only 16 in the eyes of others. That's all.

The author has something to say:

I don’t feel well, so I went to the hospital for an examination_(:з」∠)_ I want to die. The test I did yesterday is going to get the report today. I have hyperthyroidism, but there is no abnormality on the surface of the body == so strange...
