I’m in Hollywood

sorry.”

Eric was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer, she didn't seem to be blaming him.
She wasn't really dead, then why does it sound like he was the killer?

Think about it, Eric Assured her: “You will be fine.”

“It's hard to see hope.
I'm almost out of options.
I can't act as a pure girl, and in another two years, maybe I could only play the role of a housewife.”

Hearing the pure girl two words, Eric laughed, it seems that Virginia have kept the words he said a few months ago firmly in mind.
At that party, he just casually said, that her temperament and beauty doesn't work for pure and young characters.

He didn't care about Virginia thought, Hollywood has always been a patriarchal world, a woman who have neither power nor backers and want to succeed, will have to play by the rules and always try to please the ones on top.

Thinking about his past life, even after ten years of work, he wasn't even able to jump over the wall, and only staying in the periphery of the industry circle.

“Vicky, do you want a chance?”

Virginia eyes lit up: “of course.”

Erik looked up and down at the ripe flesh of the woman dressed in a black dress: “But I'm not an angel.
What can you give back?”

“Everything!”

The party has been going on for several hours, and many men and women were leaving in pairs, perhaps they have feelings for each other, or it was just a simpler one-night stand, and perhaps they have reached a deal.
Anyway, in a Hollywood party, it's hard to produce a love at first sight like in fairy tales, and there have always been news of people getting cheated by crooks from time to time.

The two of them took the elevator together to the underground parking lot, with the night temperature this season reaching about 10 degrees in Los Angeles, wearing a thin dress, with the cool breeze blowing late at night, Virginia sobered up a little, she regretted recklessly accepting Eric deal. 

She felt that she should at least try to string the young director along to wet his appetite, so she can reliably get the benefits, but now she only got a promise, if the young man afterwards didn't keep his promise, she would be played by him like a fiddle with nothing to show for it.

Suddenly Eric gently covered Virginia body with coat to keep her warm.

Well, it is a one-night stand, at least, the little man was very thoughtful.

They quietly negotiated for a while and decided to go to Virginia home in Malibu.
If Eric came out from the hotel door he will be surrounded by the paparazzi, they wanted to know if Eric will bring a woman home tonight, he was sure that the paparazzi will be camping outside of his Beverly mansion.
Now if he goes outside with her it's like him taking the initiative to provide Virginia to the paparazzi on a silver platter.

It took him almost an hour to drive from the Hilton Hotel to Malibu with no traffic jams on the way.
Fortunately, the two of them were talkative people, so awkward silence didn't appear along the way.

He Followed her directions to a small villa north of the coastal highway, far away from the beach, it is estimated that even in her second floor balcony it will be difficult to see the sea, Eric casually asked her: “why do you live here?”

Virginia put Eric coat on the hanger and said frankly, “It's nice to have such a small villa in Malibu.
You don't think that after I filmed a few movies I will be able to afford a villa in Beverly hills like you?”

Eric shrugged, realizing that he had asked her with sarcastic tone.
Thinking back to his past life, after the first debut of Virginia in a movie made by director David Lynch called 《Dune》 in 1984, she didn't star in any remarkable film since then, even after the nineties she didn't have any good work, she later shifted her focus to TV dramas.

As an actress, although she was famous to some degree, but she had no box office appeal, therefore all the films offers she received were low-cost movies, where the paycheck only reach tens of thousands of dollars.

After tonight, another woman's fate will be changed by him.

After all, after his appearance, Hollywood history was bound to become mess, so why not change history to his own enjoyment.
