The black Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle turned out of Burbank and into the confines of North Hollywood. After crossing Laurel Valley Avenue, Bella-Anderson in the driver's seat turned and the vehicle turned onto the road through Malibu. ⁇
The vehicle became scarce, and Bella-Anderson turned to look at Matthew, the co-pilot.
"What's wrong, Bella?" Matthew noticed her.
Bella-Anderson hesitated and hesitated to speak.
Matthew smiled and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. You don't need to be polite to me"
"Well....." Bella Anderson's main focus was on driving, while there were no other vehicles around, and she said, "I...I'm just a little curious"
Matthew looked at her and did not ask, but waited for her to continue.
Bella Anderson said the beginning, without so many worries, and said, "I have been a fan of Britney's for a few years, and I still am" She squeezed out a smile and asked cautiously, "Matthew, the news in the newspaper won't all be true, right?"
She knew Matthew was going to see Britney Spears today.
Matthew nodded slightly, "It's true, I've been dating Britney for almost 2 years" He showed some memories, "I remember the year Britney just became popular, I met her when I was the male lead in her MV"
Bella Anderson suddenly thought, "At that time, there seemed to be tabloids that hyped Britney and the male protagonist of the MV to fall in love, right! That leading man is you"
She suddenly realized, "It turns out they are all true"
Matthew smiled again without explaining that he and Britney actually got together after that.
"No, . . . . ." Bella-Anderson obviously remembered something again, "At that time, . . . .
At this point, she suddenly closed her mouth.
No news confirmed at the time? Why didn't I take advantage of this hype? Matthew guessed what Bella Anderson was thinking, "Maybe because that was my first love, first love was always different"
He sighed, "Maybe I was still a very simple and kind person at that time"
Bella-Anderson glanced at Matthew and said nothing more. From what she saw and heard during this period, from Helen Herman to Charlize Theron to Matthew Horner, was there a truly good person?
Maybe there are many good people in Hollywood, but unfortunately she hasn't met them yet.
Bella-Anderson was very curious. Matthew, who was just a little actor at the time, how could he catch up with Britney, who was so red that she turned purple? Was Matthew already so dark-hearted at that time as he is now?
The Mercedes-Benz buggy came to the front of a beach clubhouse, the security officer glanced at the license plate and let it go directly. As soon as Bella-Anderson parked the car, Matthew pushed the door and got out of the car and walked towards the beach. Bella-Anderson quickly followed.
There is a long wooden trestle by the beach, which holds up a king-size sun umbrella at the very front, under which is a table and several chairs.
In addition to this, there were two people, a middle-aged woman and a young woman with straight blond hair.
Bella Anderson, as a fan, recognized it from a distance. The young woman was Britney Spears, and the middle-aged woman should be her manager .
Matthew recognized Britney long ago, immediately quickened his pace, walked over, and before he got close, he took the initiative to say hello, "Hi Britney"
Britney smiled, "Hi, Matthew"
She turned to look at the middle-aged woman next to her. The middle-aged woman nodded slightly, left under the sun umbrella, and walked in the direction Matthew came. Bella-Anderson was also very discerning, although she was a little curious, but she also followed the middle-aged woman. Leave here.
"Long time no see" Matthew smiled as brightly as ever, "You are still so beautiful"
"You haven't changed much either" Britney motioned to get off her chair and "sit casually"
Matthew pulled up a chair, sat across from Britney, looked at Britney, and Britney smiled at Matthew again and said, "What, don't you know me?"
"You're more mature" Matthew said directly.
This maturity is not just external, but everything that is shown.
Britney picked up the teapot and poured Matthew a cup of tea. "This is the green tea I bought specially for the last time I went to perform in the East" She poured herself another glass, learned from Matthew's previous tone, and said, "You told me that people must learn to grow up"
Although the two broke up and never contacted each other again after the breakup, Matthew suddenly felt a little relieved when he thought of Britney's smooth career and saw Britney's current appearance.
What he said and what he did were not in vain after all.
Matthew picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "It's really good tea".
Britney also picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then said, "I'm not used to drinking it until now" She reached out and smoothed her blonde hair, "I'm sorry, Matthew, because of a job mistake on my side and my father fired people randomly, which caused you some trouble"
"It's okay." Matthew shook his head and laughed at himself, "I don't have good reviews in the media anyway"
Although that relationship has long been a thing of the past, Britney has been paying attention to Matthew's dynamics, and as she gets older, the words Matthew said in the past often spin in her ears. Looking back now, because of Matthew's relationship, How many traps have she escaped?
Matthew looked at Britney opposite, and this was no longer the little sweetheart in his memory.
Britney's childishness and simplicity have faded away, and she seems very mature. "When I asked you today, I mainly wanted to say thank you"
"Thank me?" Matthew asked strangely, "Why?"
"I was very ignorant, even stupid" Britney's face was full of sincerity, "You have persuaded me over and over again, influenced me, and pulled me back from the edge of stupidity. You have made me understand a lot of human nature and understand that there are always bad people in this world"
She shook her head gently, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be like this now"
Matthew understood what she meant and said, "You were my girlfriend then"
If Britney wasn't her girlfriend at the time, how could he care about the shit.
Britney nodded, "No matter what, Matthew, I want to thank you"
"You're welcome." Matthew spread his hands and said, "We are no longer a couple, but we are still friends"
Even he didn't believe this. The two broke up peacefully, but never contacted each other again.
Britney seemed to have finished what she wanted to say, and suddenly changed the subject and said, "It's a pity that i didn't prepare the wine" She picked up the teacup and raised it to Matthew, "Matthew, I wish you more success in the future!"
Matthew picked up the teacup, drank all the tea inside in one gulp, and said in the same tone, "You will definitely become a pop diva who surpasses Madonna"
After the two finished a cup of tea, Matthew knew it was time to say goodbye, stood up and said, "I'm leaving"
Britney didn't mean anything to stay, "Goodbye, Matthew"
Matthew nodded slightly to her, "Goodbye, Britney"
He turned around and strode in the direction he came. Now Britney is no longer the Britney he knows. This Britney has even more hope of great success.
People will always grow up. Britney once grew up after going through too many detours. Now Britney has grown up.
From the bottom of his heart, Matthew still wants to see Britney succeed and become better than before.
He is not the Holy Father and the Holy Mother, but He would also be happy if the career and life of a person who was once truly kind to him could be smooth sailing.
Under the solar umbrella, Britney kept staring at Matthew's back. She was no longer the stupid and ignorant little girl before, knowing that the two could not go back to the past, and she had never thought about going back to the past.
"You want to be a superstar in Hollywood" Britney clearly remembers Matthew's wish, "Then. . . . . I wish you become the top superstar in Hollywood!"
Retracting her gaze, Britney turned and looked at the sea opposite, not at Matthew behind her.
With the driver's revelation and this meeting, those past events will always remain in memories.
Matthew got off the trestle and saw Bella Anderson standing bored by the railing alone. He reached out and greeted her and walked towards the car first.
Bella-Anderson hurried over and looked at her watch at the same time. It had only been about ten minutes since we met. Could it be that Matthew and Britney were having an unpleasant time?
After getting in the car, she was just about to start the car, and Matthew on the co-pilot said, "Bella, if there is any major news about Britney in the newspapers or media in the future, remember to notify me"
"Okay." Bella-Anderson nodded slightly.
Matthew thought for a while and then said, "Go back and say hello to Helen Herman and say I've seen Britney"
Bella-Anderson continued to nod, "Okay" She asked, "Still keeping the news silent?"
"unchanged." Matthew's tone was very plain, "This kind of early past, without any photos or videos as evidence, will naturally be thrown aside after a period of media hype"
He changed the subject and said, "Go back and make some preparations and go to Dominica with me"
The day after tomorrow, the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" will charter a flight from Los Angeles to Dominica for location. According to the previous actor contract, Matthew can take his personal assistant with him, and the crew will bear the assistant's salary during the filming.
It's also a treatment that Hollywood stars generally enjoy.
And Matthew only plans to take Bella Anderson alone, which is definitely low-key compared to Johnny Depp.
Johnny Depp not only has to bring assistants, but also nutritionists, stylists, masseurs, etc. The salary of these people is also paid by the crew.
Ordinary actors and A-list actors are definitely two completely different beings.
After meeting Britney, Matthew went back to pack his belongings, met the crew on time, and took a charter flight to the Caribbean island nation of Dominica.
