Birth of a Goddess [Comprehensive English and American]

Elisa took the trophy and walked towards the lounge. She exchanged hugs with Adam and several mentors, and thanked her two guest singers tonight. Temporarily liberated, a little relieved.She quickly hid in the corner, took out her small bag from the locker, took out her mobile phone and quickly pressed the keys.

Christo, who was walking out along the flow of people, grabbed the back of Yves' jacket with his left hand. He felt the vibration in the jacket, and immediately took out his mobile phone with his right hand. When he saw the information on it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he used a single He pressed his hand on it a few times and replied briefly.

As soon as the text message was sent, Christo didn't stop the car, and stepped on the heel of Ive who suddenly stopped.She rubbed the tip of her nose, which was slightly red from hitting Ive's hard back, and raised her head in a daze, but when she saw a few people who suddenly appeared in front of her, her body froze suddenly.

Opposite her, a black-haired man was holding a wheelchair, with an obvious look of excitement on the face of the woman beside him.

And the man in the wheelchair stared at Christo with those blue eyes, a look of excitement and nostalgia flashed in his eyes, and finally a smile of undisguised joy slowly appeared on his face, he lightly Softly called out the greeting that was more than ten years late, "Long time no see, Christo."

When Elisa finally declined the invitation from other people and walked towards the door, she saw Boyle with his back leaning against the wall of the passage near the exit.

After changing the performance costume, Boyle, who is now only wearing a simple pair of long-sleeved trousers, looks clean, like an ordinary boy next door.And he took off his makeup and lowered his head. Even though there were a few spectators who had left late in the aisle, no one noticed that the young man leaning in the aisle was on the stage just now, showing an extremely wonderful performance. performance.

Eliza paused slightly, a little hesitant, but at this moment, she saw Boyle raised his head in her direction with a calm expression, but those eyes fell on her, and he did not move away for a long time.

In the end, it was Eliza who couldn't help breaking the weird silence, "Boyle..." She called out the other person's name, but didn't know what to say.

Hearing her voice, Boyle finally showed some expression on his calm face, "I have to admit that I don't really admire you," he paused suddenly, but then, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. With a shallow smile, "But losing in your hands is more comfortable than losing to others."

After saying this, Boyle walked towards the back of Elisa with that faint smile.The moment he passed by Elisa, Elisa heard Boyle's voice, "I still feel that the final list should not be like this."

Elisa turned around abruptly, watching Boyle's back disappear into the passage, she slightly pursed her lips and turned to leave, but those nonsensical words were still engraved in her mind.

Walking out of the gate of the gymnasium, the cool evening wind rushed towards her face, which made Eliza shudder. She hugged her arms and looked around, and soon saw the familiar figure from behind.

Eliza rushed towards the back with great interest, her eyes were filled with only that person, she approached on tiptoe, and then rushed towards the back, but stopped when she was about to meet. Holding back his own strength, he put his hands on the woman's shoulders, and at the same time happily called, "Mom."

It's just that the moment Elisa put her hand on Christo's shoulder, she clearly sensed something was wrong. Christo's body trembled, and just such a simple movement made her tremble suddenly.

Only then did Elisa look around belatedly, and when she raised her eyes, she met a pair of familiar blue eyes.

This time, she finally saw the man's face clearly.

He looked very gentle, although it could be seen from the fine wrinkles on his face that he was not so young, but the outline between his eyebrows and eyes could still make people imagine his handsome appearance when he was young; he didn't speak, just sat there peacefully In the wheelchair, those eyes seemed to see through everything.

But under the gaze of these eyes, Eliza felt a little nervous for some reason. She subconsciously cast her eyes on Christo, only to find that her face was pale and the blood on her lips had completely faded.

Christo looked at the man in front of him, trembling his lips, and said the name that had been uttered countless times, "Charles..." Her hands were placed by her side, tightly clenched into fists , it took a long time to answer the second half of the sentence with trembling voice, "Long time no see."

Her voice was so soft that it seemed that the next moment it would dissipate into the air.

After Christo said this greeting, Elisa worriedly held Christo's cold hand.

Christo turned his head and glanced at Elisa, pursed his lips, and tightened his fingers slightly in Elisa's warm palm.When she looked at Charles again, Christo's face had regained her composure. She smiled, as if she was facing an ordinary friend she hadn't seen for many years, but there was unconcealable joy hidden in her eyes.

Charles watched the change of Christopher's expression, glanced at Elisa holding Christopher's hand, and his gaze fell back to Christopher's face, and he saw Christopher shaking his head gently at him.

At this time, Elisa finally noticed the strange atmosphere in this scene. She held Christo's hand and stared at the blue eyes of the man in the wheelchair opposite her, which was exactly the same as her own. Men will not have any blood relationship with her.But the world had broken her belief in science a long time ago.

At this moment, Eliza's small bag suddenly rang a bell. She almost opened the bag as fast as she could, let go of Christo's hands, and walked aside.

It was Mr. Carlos, the agent, who called, and what he said made Elisa feel relieved for some reason.

"Okay, I'll be right over." After a brief answer, Elisa hung up the phone and walked back to Christo, "My manager has something to do with me, so I'll leave first, and call later."

After finishing speaking, Eliza hugged Christo reluctantly, put her cheek against her cheek, and rubbed gently, "I will miss you, Mom."

She felt Christo's hand gently pat her on the back, and when Eliza let go of Christo and turned to walk away, her hand gently wiped the cold sweat on the hem of the dress.

During this process, she kept her gaze firmly fixed on the ground, and she didn't raise her head to cast even a single glance in Charles' direction.

The black car parked slowly on the side of the road. Elisa opened the rear door and sat in. Carlos was in the front driver's seat.

He silently glanced at Eliza's expression through the rearview mirror, turned his head and started the car without saying a word.

Eliza's eyes fell on the window, watching the hazy outline of the street under the night, showing simple lines, reflected on the car window like a child's graffiti.

After a few minutes of silence, Carlos calmly mentioned the incident just now, "Several music companies have sent people, although one of the rewards for the "Voice of America" ​​champion is Universal Music signing contract, but now I want to know more about your own thoughts, Eliza."

He glanced at the face of the young girl in the rear row reflected in the rearview mirror, and calmly explained, "Choose the company you want, without any worries."

Elisa looked towards the front row, but she could only see the back of Carlos's head. She finally pulled her thoughts back from the incident just now, sat up straight, and asked seriously, "I don't know anything about all of this. . Carlos, you are my agent, I want to hear your opinion."

When he heard what Elisa said, Carlos finally smiled for a long time.

"Eliza, I am honored to have your trust."

Carlos said with a smile.

It's just that he didn't open his mouth to give his own answer. Instead, he drove the car into the parking lot. After the car was parked, he unfastened his seat belt and twisted his body, looking straight into Elisa's eyes, saying a word. He paused and said, "My suggestion is still to sign a contract with Universal Records."

Just after saying this, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "But we don't have to agree to this contract from the beginning," he looked into Eliza's eyes with a fox-like look, "Issue Lisa, we are in an auction. Even if you have a psychological price at the beginning, how to maximize your interests through reasonable operation, these are left to me."

When Elisa and Carlos finally walked out of the conference room, Carlos had a smug smile on his face, and before they had completely walked out of the corridor, there was the sound of glass breaking from the direction of the conference room .

Listening to the noise inside, the arc of Carlos' mouth didn't change a bit, he just walked outside calmly.

Recalling the negotiation scene just now, Elisa couldn't help sighing a little when she glanced at her manager.

"Eliza, where are you going next?"

Carlos plugged in the car keys, only to hear Eliza give an unexpected answer after hesitating.

"Airport."

Eliza looked at Carlos' surprised eyes, and a slight unease flashed in her eyes. She grabbed the hem of her clothes with her fingers, but repeated stubbornly, "Airport."

Carlos took a deep look at Eliza, but in the end he didn't ask the reason intimately.

The black car drove into the night and headed towards the airport.
