American fame and fortune

After leaving the rest room and coming to the backstage waiting area, Lily almost had no place to put her nervous hands. She felt her heart beating wildly, and it might pop out of her mouth at any moment, and fall to the ground and become a frog.

A female producer of the show reassured: "Take a deep breath, relax, it's not a big deal, Helen chatted with you for a long time, very kind, right? She won't make things difficult for you, Martin grew up with you..."

Lily took several deep breaths, but still couldn't calm down.

After all, she was only 17 years old.

Lily asked, "Am I ugly? Haven't seen the world?"

The female producer must encourage at this time: "You are fine, much better than most people who are on camera for the first time, be brave and confident."

Lily's heart was still beating violently, and she couldn't help returning to her old habit, cursing secretly: "Fake! Fake..."

As soon as the swear words came out, she suddenly calmed down a little.

The female producer heard the voice in the headset and lightly patted Lily on the back: "Go on stage."

Not lacking in courage, Lily clenched her hands hard and strode onto the stage.

Turning around the exit, I saw Martin, and couldn't help but think of one thing.

In the more than ten years of his life, Martin, like Elena, raised his fist frequently.

The girl who grew up under heavy punching education suddenly wanted to punch herself: I am so stupid!

For a moment, Lily froze on the spot.

Seeing Lily's nervousness, embarrassment and anxiety, Martin could guess what she was here for, stood up and walked towards her, and at the same time signaled the audience off the stage to applaud to encourage Lily.

Encouraging applause rang out, and Lily came to her senses that Martin had already approached.

She stammered slightly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come here without saying hello, I..."

Martin hugged her gently and said, "We are family."

Lily's smile naturally bloomed on her tight face, and she forgot all about her nervousness, embarrassment, and anxiety at this moment.

Why did she take the initiative to stand up and listen to Louise's persuasion to participate in this program, because she and Martin are a family.

The audience is still applauding.

Helen walked over and asked, "What did you say?"

When Martin came over, he took off the microphone and turned off Lily's microphone by the way.

Lily didn't answer.

"A family secret," Martin said.

Helen invited the two of them to come and sit down, and gave Lily a bottle of mineral water.

Martin unscrewed the water bottle, Lily took a sip, and the nervousness was relieved again.

Those present and the audience in front of the TV series could clearly see that this girl was just a rookie in front of the camera, with no experience at all, and she was so nervous that she could dig out an air-raid shelter.

But the person is beautiful, and this kind of embarrassment has become a bonus item, which makes Lily's words extremely credible.

Lily doesn't have to lie either, just tell what happened that night.

Helen was very friendly at this time, and asked, "Lily, can you tell me what happened that night?"

Lily's condition is much better, at least she can say a complete sentence: "I remember very clearly that there were frequent shootings in the community. In order to protect us, Martin moved to our living room and found some cans filled with stones. Hanging on the wire fence in the yard..."

Helen interrupted: "Is it a Coca-Cola can?"

Lily nodded vigorously: "Yes."

Helen picked up the Coca-Cola on the low table between her and Martin, opened it to Lily, picked up another can, and said, "It's commercial time! The God of Coca-Cola is FOREVER!"

There was laughter and applause from the auditorium.

These made Lily calm down gradually: "My younger brother Hall also dug a hole inside the fence. That night I heard the rattle of soda cans, and I heard gunshots as soon as I got up."

She returned to normal a little bit, and started to make trouble: "I hurried out of the bedroom to check the situation, and was scolded by Martin as soon as I went out."

The camera lens and the eyes of the audience fell on Lily.

Helen asked rightly: "Why?"

Lily was wronged: "Martin told me to go back to the bedroom, hide behind the masonry wall, and keep my head out."

Everyone is relieved.

Helen was smiling, but she was muttering in her heart, this girl adapts so quickly.

Lily talked about what happened later, and there was no need to add oil and vinegar, showing the deep feelings of the family.

Seeing that the girl was pretty, cute, and good-natured, Helen decided to give her a little more time.

Helen asked: "Just now you said that you studied sculpture at the California Institute of the Arts?"

"Yes, I'm good at manual work, and I'm very talented in this area." Lily looked at Martin, and she wanted to swear ten thousand words in her heart, but she actually said the exact opposite: "After Martin came to Los Angeles, I purchased a lot of raw materials and mailed them back to Atlanta for me to practice, and I would give a lot of them every once in a while, and I practiced a lot, and my level rose very quickly."

Helen asked Martin: "Is it a lot?"

Martin couldn't tell her that the goal was to make Australia's crocodiles and bison into rare and protected animals. He smiled and nodded: "I have given away a lot."

He went on to add: "I will send more in the future."

What Lily was about to say came to an abrupt end, and she sat on the back of the sofa, not knowing what to say for a while.

Helen was keenly aware of something strange, and said, "How about a live performance?"

Lily nodded lightly: "Is there any colored clay for sculpture?"

A staff member will deliver it soon.

Lily didn't bring a carving knife, so she pinched the prototype of a clown sculpture and modified it with the knife provided by the crew. The sketch quickly took shape.

The red mouth, white face and purple suit, in the close-up of the camera, are a little rough, but it can be seen that Martin is the model.

In the mansion on Sunset Boulevard, Nicholson put down his wine glass and walked a few steps to the shelf, where there was a gift from Martin.

Various sculptures, including a clown based on Martin.

Nicholson shook his head and smiled: "This guy is interesting."

In a villa in Beverly Hills, Angelina Jolie is also watching the show.

What she held in her hand was a 30 cm long sculpture of a clown. The straight legs of the statue were just used as handles. The huge head and uneven patterns were not easy to use.

It turned out that these carvings were all made by this little girl.

Julie nodded slightly, this Lily Carter's carving skills are quite good.

Her focus is not on this.

What Julie is concerned about is, will Martin really reconcile his conflict with Aniston?

At the same time, hundreds of Hollywood practitioners turned their eyes from the TV to the souvenirs of the crew.

Not many people complained, after all, it was just a souvenir from the crew.

On the contrary, most people think it is good. The hand-made carvings made by small engravers who are close to family members are more commemorative than those industrialized assembly line products.

The material is good, the carving is also very exquisite, and it was presented by Martin himself.

This episode of Helen Show ended, and as the live camera was turned off, Lily quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Immediately an assistant took her there.

Helen said to Martin: "It's normal to be nervous."

Martin said deliberately: "You didn't greet me in advance."

Helen smiled: "This is what is called a surprise. How about it? Isn't it a surprise?"

The two walked out together, and Martin said, "I thought you were going to invite Julie and Aniston over."

Hearing this sentence, Helen's eyes seemed to sparkle: "To discuss something, you sleep with the two of them and invite them to my show to reconcile."

Her voice was extremely low: "It's okay for you to ask me to pay anything."

Martin is more principled, and he refused: "You should go directly to Julie and Aniston."

Helen was inevitably a little disappointed, she shrugged: "It seems that my attractiveness is too bad."

Martin said seriously: "Because we are friends."

Helen couldn't help laughing.

Lily came over from the bathroom at this moment.

Martin said to her, "Come with me."

Lily followed Martin into the dressing room, rushed ahead, and raised her fist: "You don't need to do it, I will do it myself."

Martin grabbed her fist and threw it down: "Don't mess around, I don't blame you."

Lily immediately became courageous: "Those idiots slandered you, so I just wanted to help you do something. You have been protecting us all this time, so I am not familiar with Los Angeles. In Atlanta, I would have looked for it with a carving knife. Go to the door, the woman will engrave Bichi on her chest, and the man..."

"I see." Martin interrupted her and asked, "Who contacted you? It wasn't Thomas?"

Lily said honestly: "Louise, I called her and she made this suggestion. I think it can help you."

Martin said: "Indeed, those words are more convincing when they come out of your mouth." He reminded: "Go back to school, don't come out in the near future, and don't deal with any media reporters."

Lily nodded again and again: "I understand, those Yu Ji dare to make up things that don't exist."

Martin suddenly discovered that, from this point of view alone, the reporters of the News of the World were very professional.

Afterwards, the two left the studio and got into the car driven by Bruce.

Martin said, "I'll take you back to school first."

Lily knew that Martin had a lot of things to do recently, and said, "I won't come out when I go in, so I can concentrate on my studies and classes."

Before the car left Burbank, Lily received a call from Elena. Naturally, it was the daily sisterly love.

Elena didn't hang up until Martin took the phone and talked for a while.

Sending Lily back to school, Martin sends Bruce back to Sherman Osk, heading straight to Louise's place.

Entering the living room, he saw Louise sitting in front of the bar, sipping wine while watching the video replay of Helen's show.

Louise poured Martin a glass of wine and said, "Lily wants to help you, but I can't stop her enthusiasm, and it can really help you, so I just gave her a hand, and the effect is good."

She laughed: "I called a few old friends, and they also watched the show, and they all said that their impression of you has improved a lot. Women will naturally have a good impression of a man who can protect his family."

Martin pulled out the high chair and sat next to her: "Tell me in advance next time."

Louise smiled: "Is there a sense of surprise?"

Martin drank a glass of wine and decided to educate her.

As for how to educate, of course it is stick education.
