Chapter 540 I Can’t Bear Her Beauty
"Mr. Xiao!" Seeing Xiao Peng about to leave, Amanda hurriedly stopped him and said, "I apologize for my inappropriate words just now!"
No matter what he thinks in his heart, he must show a posture of weakness at this time.
After all, she was a child star and knew the power of Hollywood capital! Even Oscar winners were vulnerable to capital! And something like this would definitely affect her image in front of Billy!
Was it really a 'coincidence' that she met Billy in Norway? You're kidding! This was all carefully planned!
She had been following Billy's social media, and when she learned that Billy was planning to go to Norway, she also went to Norway and had a "carefully prepared" encounter.
Why did he do this? Of course, there are two reasons: the first is naturally Billy is rich, and the second is because of Billy's status. He is from an aristocratic family!
Chinese people do not attach much importance to "aristocracy", but it is a different story for Westerners. They say that Americans are arrogant and look down on everyone, but if you pay attention you will find that European aristocratic families are the favorite marriage partners of wealthy American people.
The Americans are actually quite interesting. Even though Europe's economy and other aspects are inferior to theirs, they still think Europe is superior. Especially when faced with European aristocrats, they feel inherently inferior, like country bumpkins. So they try every possible way to connect with Europe. Even Trump has publicly stated that he has German ancestry.
In their eyes, this is a very respectable thing! Especially those white people, who feel that as long as they are associated with the European aristocracy, they can distinguish themselves from the "rednecks" in the United States and feel superior. Many people even go to the point of "obsession".
For example, there's a famous Hollywood actor named Alec Baldwin, who shot to fame with his role in "The Hunt for Red October" and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He also appeared in "Mission: Impossible 5" and "Mission: Impossible 6." However, his second marriage was a complete joke.
His second wife, Ilaria, was a professional yoga instructor who trained as a dancer, competed in dance competitions, and later opened her own studio. What captivated Alec Baldwin? She claimed to be from an elite Spanish family and had moved to New York at the age of nineteen to study dance. Her exotic charm and European background captivated Baldwin, who married Ilaria, 26 years his junior.
Ilaria also fully demonstrated her "passion of a Spanish woman". She even did not forget to hold a flamenco fan at their wedding. She insisted that she was Spanish when she was interviewed on TV. Baldwin also kept saying whenever he mentioned his wife on various programs: You know, my wife is a Spanish woman. Although she is very enthusiastic, she also has a bad temper.
It turns out Ilaria overlooked one thing: she was originally a mediocre ballroom dancer who later ran a small yoga studio. No matter how she told stories, no one paid attention. But after marrying Baldwin, she stood in the spotlight, as if she were naked and visible to everyone. So people were surprised to discover that Ilaria's real name was Hillary, a native American. Before marrying Baldwin, she had never been to Spain except for a trip there as a child...
One wants to marry a European, the other wants to be a European. These two are a perfect match made in heaven!
But this isn't an isolated case; it's a common American concept: finding a European husband or wife is prestigious! Someone like Billy, who's rich, comes from a legitimate aristocratic family, and even holds a title, is definitely the dream marriage partner for most Americans.
But Billy also has problems: he has a personality problem. He drives women crazy if they are with him.
It turned out that Amanda looked down on him, always thinking that she was so beautiful that there must be someone better, so she didn't take Billy seriously.
But now she is 35 years old. Only then did she realize that a woman's beauty will depreciate with age. When she realized this, she found out that all the outstanding men around her had been snatched away by women who were not as beautiful as herself.
At this time, she was surprised to find that Billy was still alone!
Well, that's not surprising. With his personality, no one except the "vegetarians" looks down on him.
Although Amanda used to look down on Billy, she now suddenly realized that Billy had many advantages: he was born into an aristocratic family, he was rich, and ordinary women didn't care about him and no one wanted to compete with him...
As for how to take Billy down, Amanda had also made preparations! The best way to take down someone like that was to make him feel like he was the one who understood him best! Hence Amanda's angry rebuke of Xiao Peng.
But when Amanda found out that the person she was targeting was Xiao Peng, she was completely stunned.
She wasn't really afraid that Xiao Peng would get angry, but she was afraid that her attitude towards Xiao Peng would affect her relationship with Billy. Billy really idolized Xiao Peng, and when they chatted, he kept talking about Xiao Peng to her. This made Amanda speechless: "You're talking about another man in front of a beautiful woman like me. I'm starting to doubt whether you're gay!"
She wasn't seasick at all, she just couldn't stand Martin and used the excuse of seasickness to go back and calm her mind!
For my future happiness! I'll endure it!
So even though she was very reluctant in her heart, she had to express her position at this time and apologize to Xiao Peng first. After all, saying "sorry" didn't cost any money.
Xiao Peng was about to board the lifeboat and leave. After hearing Amanda's words, he nodded and said, "You really should apologize! Okay, I'm leaving!"
"Huh?" Amanda asked in confusion, "Mr. Xiao, why are you leaving even though I've already apologized? Can't we just hang out here together? Billy really respects you."
Xiao Peng stopped and looked at Amanda: "I just said you should apologize, but I didn't say I forgive you! Who said that just because you apologize, you must forgive? What you just said is unacceptable to me."
Amanda frowned and said, "Mr. Xiao, I'm a person who tends to offend people easily by speaking directly, but it was really unintentional."
"Stop!" Xiao Peng stopped Amanda from continuing. "Who says 'speaking frankly' is a valid excuse for speaking nonsense? All so-called 'speaking frankly' is just a lack of manners. Okay, Billy, I'm leaving now. Remember to contact me when you go to England. Oh, please don't let me see Miss Amanda again next time. I can't handle her beauty!"
