303 Gnashing of teeth
Tracy I. Jacobs and Brad I. Pett. Hugo never thought that he would meet these two people in an ordinary four-star hotel, and this is New York, not Los Angeles, they all say that the road is narrow, but this world seems to be really too small. But after thinking about it, this is the first meeting between Hugo and Tracy after the Golden Globe incident, so this meeting is not unusual, and the two will meet again sooner or later.
In fact, Hugo has no direct evidence that the series of 'yin' plots that happened in the past are Tracy's schemes, and even though Uma has some of his testimony that can be involved in Tracy, there is still no clear evidence. However, in the entertainment industry, where gossip can create lethality, the evidence is not important, and the figure of the enemy is clear enough.
So, when Tracy saw Hugo, a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if a cat had caught a mouse and 'teased' its prey, and all the qiē was explained. At this time, Tracy looked at Hugo, with lingering charity and pity in her eyes, obviously gloating about what Hugo had suffered for more than a month, in order to witness Hugo's downfall dilemma, Tracy had waited too long.
Tracy took Brad's arm and stood in place, but did not move, just looked at Hugo defiantly. At this time, Brad has also seen Hugo and Joseph, after the previous year of polishing, Brad's flamboyant temperament has precipitated a lot, although the corners of his mouth still have the bright smile of the heartthrob', but there is less frivolous recklessness. Obviously, after Brad was up and down in the dye vat of the entertainment industry, he gradually began to grow.
Brad raised his chin slightly, and looked at Hugo in front of him with a kind of scrutiny, his eyes were full of exuberant fighting spirit and condescending speculation.
Today, Hugo is dressed in formal clothes in order to go to Broadway to see a play, but he is performing on the street and going down again. I went for a walk around the city, so Hugo took off his coat and put it in his hand, and then pulled the sleeves of his shirt to his elbows, and the sweat on his head made the 'messy' hair that was not cut short because of "Seattle Sleepless" a little wolf-bèi, but it made Hugo more casual and comfortable.
Tracy and Brad looked at Hugo like this, Tracy's eyes were calm with charity, obviously very satisfied with Hugo's current situation, of course, if Hugo fell directly into the mud, she would probably be happier; And Brad is not so clever, he wants to stand on a high point to pity Hugo, but the momentum is still slightly worse, although Brad is four years older than Hugo, but he is much more immature than Hugo.
Joseph glanced back at Hugo, he didn't notice Hugo's emotion, but he could see that Hugo wanted to take a step forward, Joseph couldn't help but take half a step in Hugo's direction with some concern, Hugo immediately felt the heat of Joseph's approaching, let him raise his eyes to look at Joseph, and then 'revealed' a calm smile, signaling to reassure Joseph, and then took a step. Joseph had no choice but to follow.
In fact, in the feud between Tracy and Lancaster, Hugo is an innocent victim, but Hugo knows that he can't give Tracy any response she wants, because this soul of his own has never loved Tracy. Therefore, they are destined to stand on opposite sides, which Hugo was mentally prepared for on New Year's Eve.
It's just that Hugo didn't expect Tracy's attack to be so fierce and ruthless, maybe this is just the beginning, and then Tracy's serpent-like attacks will only continue to surge. It's impossible to dodge, it's impossible to solve the problem, even if you haven't met Tracy before, you will meet it head-on today, and then take a detour, it's impossible!
Hugo straightened his slightly tired back, and then calmly walked in front of Tracy and Brad. Originally, Tracy and Brad still used a condescending appearance, but as Hugo and Joseph got closer and closer, their expressions were slightly stiff.
Hugo is six feet tall, Joseph is even taller, although Brad's figure is muscular and 'fleshy', but Brad is obviously only five feet and ten inches, half a palm's distance shorter than Hugo, plus Hugo is walking step by step, as if the 'yin' shadow is gradually covered, the difference in momentum makes Brad can't help but feel that he is shorter. Tracy, who was standing next to her, was even more petite, and both she and Brad had to look up at Hugo and Joseph, which made the momentum that the two had built up collapse in an instant. Innate physiological advantages are really important. But fortunately, Brad reacted quickly, his eyes widened, his teeth clenched, he straightened his spine, and then raised his chin slightly, so that his eyes were fixed on Hugo's eyes, so that his momentum would not be weakened too much. Obviously, the results are not bad. It's just that Hugo hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, 'revealed' a smile, and then turned his head to look at Tracy, and Brad's eyes suddenly burst out: What does Hugo's smile mean? Is it to look down on yourself?
Although Brad has grown up rapidly in the past year, and after gradually adapting to the environment of the entertainment industry, he finally showed maturity in line with his age, but when facing his direct competitor Hugo, he is inevitably still a little unbalanced.
However, Tracy's aura is strong enough, and after she was physically oppressed by Hugo and Joseph, she quickly stabilized her position, although she raised her head to look at the two tall men in front of her, but the aura formed after the love was stable was impossible to ignore, "So, look at you are doing well now." Tracy's speech seemed to be indifferent, but the gaze that kept looking Hugo up and down with a touch of contempt, this invisible oppression, clearly expressed the schadenfreude in her heart at this time.
"There is no burden, and it is naturally relaxed." Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth outlined a calm and confident smile, ignoring the irony in Tracy's words, and actually nodded in acknowledgement.
Joseph stood beside him, and when he saw Brad's slightly darkened face, he suddenly felt very happy. Hugo is satirizing Brad for relying on Tracy to live, if you go deeper, it can be understood that Tracy is actually just clinging to power to seek a breakthrough, this kind of sarcasm full of countless bends and curves The first reaction is inaudible, but it makes people feel a little strange, and they need to be savored before they can feel it. Obviously, Brad was savoring, and Tracy's face was not in sight.
Tracy chuckled, "That's right, I don't even have the opportunity to audition, of course it's easy." Sure enough, Joseph has been searching for new job opportunities for Hugo recently, but there has been no more breakthrough, and it seems that Tracy is making small moves behind the scenes.
"It seems that you are really well-informed, and the news of the six major studios can't escape your ears." Hugo didn't mind, nodded and said, this is actually a hint to Tracy: You don't have the ability to cover the sky with one hand, so don't bluff. Not to mention just a Tracy, even if it is the CEO of a major studio, it is not so easy to ban an actor.
Tracy's eyes shrank suddenly, it was just a two-sentence 'exchange', but she could clearly feel the change of Hugo, the man in front of her was once the person she loved so much, she clearly knew every move of this man, but Hugo at this time made her feel strange, unprecedentedly strange, like a stranger: not a stranger she loved nor a stranger she hated.
This strangeness made Tracy's inner anger explode like a terrifying 'wave', she hated him, but he didn't care anymore, was this laughing at her ridiculousness and obsession? No, she will never allow this kind of thing to happen, she wants to make Hugo regret it, regret it deeply, and let this remorse be imprinted in Hugo's heart forever like a tattoo!
"No need to ask too much, do you?" Tracy's anger made her voice freeze colder, as if the scorching flames had been frozen into icicles, "Seattle sleepless nights, hum......"
The subtext of this sentence couldn't be simpler, and Brad finally spoke, vividly interpreting Tracy's words, "Chick movie?" The corners of Brad's mouth withdrew a thick mockery, and Hugo's eyes were full of disdain, "Maybe you can finally give full play to your advantages in appearance and make a perfect ...... 'flower' vase." ”
Starring in a chick movie is not a wise choice for any actor, after all, it is not often possible to encounter Richard Gere's works like "Pretty Woman", and even "Pretty Woman" is not really Richard, but Julia Roberts.
In the face of Tracy and Brad's provocation, Joseph was also angry, he gritted his teeth and took half a step forward, "It is precisely because Hugo is an excellent actor that he has the courage to take on the role 'color' that others dare not take!" Joseph's words were so 'fine' that Hugo couldn't help but want to applaud him.
However, Brad did not show weakness, and laughed hehe, "Is it that others dare not take it, or that others are unwilling to take it, or that ...... You know, disdain.
Joseph's fists clenched in an instant, but Hugo grabbed Joseph in time, for the matter of "Seattle sleepless night", the entire industry has a similar opinion, there is no need to play lip service, or let the facts speak most directly and effectively.
Hugo wasn't afraid that Joseph would punch Brad, but he kept staring at Tracy, and then he found a trace of 'agitation' flashing in Tracy's eyes, and he had to guard against it, could it be that this was also a trap?
