1023 family reaction
Cicilia-Davis is carefully flipping through the newspapers that have just been released this morning, from "The Times" to "The Sun", from "Empire" to "Q Magazine", regardless of subject matter and The media were absorbed in absorbing the latest news of the day. There were also a few gallery art magazines scattered around. They were professional magazines in the industry with low circulation, but they were professional enough..
At 11 o'clock in the morning in London, the gray sky gradually revealed a glimmer of light. It seemed that the sun was trying its best to penetrate the clouds and revealed a little halo, faintly outlining the outline of summer, but it was still not clear enough. It seems that the coldness and bitingness of winter still remain in it - not spring, but winter.
There was silence in the art gallery, not even a trace of noise. It was quiet and peaceful in a corner. The busy traffic outside the floor-to-ceiling windows seemed to have nothing to do with the indoors. A glass door separated the two worlds. Involuntarily, even breathing Everyone slowed down, fearing that the slightest sound of their own might break the peace..
For some people, this is a kind of enjoyment, a rare quietness in the busy and noisy city; but for some people, it is a kind of torture, and the hands and feet are tied so that they don’t know where to place their hands and feet. where.
As an art agent, Cecilia has gradually become accustomed to such an elegant and calm way of doing things. Although she doesn't mind pampering in her spare time; but during working hours, she can concentrate on her work. Settle down and truly enter the world of art.
What's more, her boss is an extremely strict lady who is extremely cunning about etiquette, taste, and details..
Before "The Devil Wears Prada" was released, everyone said that Miranda in the movie was a demonic boss, but the prototype in real life - Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of "Vogue" magazine, is probably an even more terrifying one. exist; but in Cecilia’s view, whether it is movies or reality, compared with her boss, they are all like gentle angels.
Only those who have seen real demons will know that real life is far more cruel than movies.
After so many years of careful polishing, Cecilia has successfully started her career. She handles all unexpected events calmly and calmly. A cup of coffee and a newspaper can constitute a perfect morning..
“Ear”.
The sound of the glass door being pushed gently made a subtle noise in the art gallery. Generally speaking, few guests came to visit in the morning, but occasionally special circumstances would still occur; then, Cecilia raised her head , showed a polite smile, did not say hello, just gave a friendly look.
This is also a request from the boss.
Because the boss insists that an art gallery should be a space for soul communication. If it is too flattering, too attentive, or too commercial, it will lose its original temperament. They should leave enough space for guests to slowly calm down and appreciate it. Appreciators of true taste can always find works that fit their souls here..
For Cecilia, it's a good thing, a smile and a look, that's enough.
But the next moment, Cecilia stood up and nodded again, expressing enough dignity and attention. She did not say a greeting, but her muscles were tense, maintaining a high degree of concentration and full concentration. Because , the boss appears.
The lady in front of me is slender and elegant. She wears a simple white lace dress with green stiletto heels. She is holding a black classic handbag. No brand or value can be seen, but The demeanor around him is also capable and noble, and the powerful aura invisibly shows his grace and splendor..
Cecilia knew, however, that all the attire on her body was custom-made. Without a brand, the value would naturally be impossible to evaluate. Only through real contact can one understand that the so-called brand has no value to the nobles of the upper class. any meaning.
“Good morning." Elizabeth Hall gently nodded her head, without being arrogant or condescending. Her warm voice always made people involuntarily think of the word "perfect" in their minds..
Cecilia did not answer aloud, but nodded again. Her restrained and appropriate response fully demonstrated the elegance of the aristocracy - after working for so many years, surrounded by London aristocrats, Cecilia is now gradually beginning to I have learned the relevant etiquette, but it is just tangible but not spiritual..
“I just came here to inform you that everything has been arranged for next week's private party. The final process list and guest list should be mailed today. After signing for it, confirm and check it. If there are no problems, you can send it out. "Yes." Elizabeth said simply, "In addition, you can sort out the invitation list for private collections. You will need it tomorrow at the latest.".”
“Yes, ma'am." Cecilia replied politely.
After the explanation, Elizabeth's footsteps moved forward again, moving towards the inner studio. Just when Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief and gradually relaxed, Elizabeth paused again and stepped back again, " This is..." The slightly raised tail tone is like kapok floating slightly in the air in March, elegant and graceful, revealing a little doubt..
Following Elizabeth's line of sight, Cecilia saw today's "The Times". The headlines on the front page were indeed very eye-catching. With just a glance, she could accurately capture the information..
Cecilia was a little confused, because Elizabeth never cared about these gossips, but she calmed down her thoughts, tried to maintain etiquette, and explained with a smile, "This is the most sensational headline today, Renly Hall, then A Hollywood actor who was the youngest person to win an Oscar last year……”
Cecilia's words paused for a moment, because she could deeply feel the temperature around Elizabeth plummeting, as if she had returned to autumn from summer in an instant. The chilly feeling made the hairs on her entire spine stand up, but then, Elizabeth spoke again, "Oh? Continue.”
Her words were calm and there was no surge of emotion at all, but Cecilia always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't explain why..
“Renly is the hottest young actor in the past two years. News broke out that he is actually a hereditary noble, with a prominent family background and excellent education. Now it has triggered a lot of discussions." Cecilia was not sure whether she should continue talking. , there was still some hesitation in speaking, but then she felt Elizabeth's gaze again, she could only bite the bullet and speak again.
“He is a legendary actor. No one has ever known about his family and life experience. He only relied on his talents and abilities to make his way in Hollywood and conquered countless audiences, proving that he is a talented and gifted actor. , the movie 'Crazy Love' from the year before last is still a favorite of many people..”
“Not long ago, his performance in 'Les Misérables' in the West End was also well received. Many theater critics considered him to be the best actor since Laurence Olivier. This is really a very remarkable thing.!”
“Now that his family background is suddenly revealed, this is really surprising; but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. Renly was originally an elegant gentleman, but at the age of twenty-three, he showed incredible Calm and elegant. To be honest, such an actor is really rare. For the audience, this is a blessing..”
“By the way, this time, the movie "Edge of Tomorrow" starring him has just been released in the UK, and its opening weekend box office record was the second best of the year. Many friends around me said they liked it very much after watching it, not that A simple popcorn, but a commercial movie with real depth. I am also going to watch it this weekend..”
“To be honest, he is so legendary that many media now believe that he has surpassed Prince Harry and become the most valuable golden bachelor in the UK.……”
As she spoke, Cecilia realized that her true nature was exposed. She was so excited that she poured out all her thoughts at once. The more she talked, the more excited she became. She even got a little carried away and completely forgot about it. Standing in front of her was her boss, and then Cecilia could feel Elizabeth's increasingly calm and fierce aura..
In an instant, Cecilia came into contact with Elizabeth's gaze, and a cold and sharp sting came over, like a real sharp blade, flying towards her eyes fiercely, it was really too fierce and too sharp, So much so that all Cecilia's words were strangled in her throat, and no sound came out..
After coming back to her senses, Cecilia realized that there was a layer of cold sweat on her back, and even her shirt was soaked. The fear from the depths of her soul made her whole body start to tremble slightly..
For a moment, all the feelings were just an explosion of a moment, and then they disappeared in a blink of an eye. Elizabeth in her sight regained her calmness again, without any special fluctuations, like a quiet lake, deep and quiet, as if everything had just happened. The feelings are just Cecilia’s own illusions.
But is that really an illusion??
“So, you like Renly? "Elizabeth's voice still has no fluctuations, elegant and calm, gentle and graceful, like the most beautiful velvet in the world, her fingertips can't help but linger..
Cecilia's survival instinct suddenly burst out, and she reflexively wanted to deny it, but as soon as the words came to her lips, she immediately realized that her reaction just now had revealed the truth, and she couldn't tell lies with her eyes open. , could only nod bravely, "Yes, I pay attention occasionally, I think he is a very... uh, special actor.”
Silence, silence, no response from Elizabeth.
