Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

  Chapter 439 Men's 'hypocrisy'

  In fact, when Kate found out that she was pregnant, she used a lot of brains, hoping to surprise Roland.

  From blocking news, to not disturbing Roland's work, to tolerating Roland not coming home at night, everything she did was to create a quiet, claustrophobic environment that only belonged to them alone.

She wants to share her joy with Roland without being disturbed by the outside world or being implicated by foreign objects. Of course, she wants to know what will happen when Roland finds that the long-awaited thing finally becomes a reality. What kind of excitement?

  Will Roland, who has been thinking about becoming a father for a year, shout excitedly?

  Will you dance happily?

   Or weeping with joy?

  Still hugging and crying?

  No matter what kind of reaction it is, for Kate, that is the most real manifestation.

  But unfortunately, plans can never keep up with changes.

When Roland thought that the negotiations between Bush and Goldman Sachs would last for a long time, Kate, who learned the same information from Roland's bodyguard, also thought that in the next few days or a week, her husband would only be in her own She appeared during the break, so she boldly browsed through the newborn care knowledge she got from the hospital. In the process of her study, the accident she wanted to get rid of and the surprise she wanted to present perfectly met. .

  Unprepared, she didn't know how to speak.

  Because this is not acting, I cannot improvise.

  She doesn't want to use false affection to get the deception wrapped in truth, but—

All right.

  When she found out that Roland, who didn't know when he would return, had already cried, it didn't matter whether he opened his mouth or not.

   And after Roland opened his arms and embraced her, everything her man expressed was the surprise she wanted.

Hit the other person's shoulder with his forehead, and the unstoppable tears fell crazily with his slightly lowered head. He raised his head and kissed her husband's face. The act of asking for a kiss received an eager response. After a burst of hearty communication, the whole body The limp Kate also hung on her husband's body, and while carrying his limp wife back to the living room, Roland also buried his cheek in his wife's shoulder.

  Feeling the shrug from her shoulders, at this moment, Kate, lying in her husband's arms, smiled like a fool.

   The joy that popped out of nowhere made her shut her mouth from ear to ear, and the resulting curiosity reminded her of the unfinished topic before, "Hey, tell me, when did you come back?"

   "..." Roland was unwilling to answer this question, and hoped to respond with silence.

   But when Kate found out that her husband was all there pretending to be dead, her slender five fingers also scratched her waist.

  The ensuing itching made Roland purse his lips, and when he realized that he couldn't hold back, the words he had to deal with finally appeared.

   "It's been... for a while."

   "Has a while?"

   This answer made Kate very dissatisfied.

  She, who was still wrapped in joy, suddenly sat upright and distanced herself from her husband.

   "When is a moment?"

  The sudden change of face made Roland a little confused.

   Staring at his wife for a while, he didn't find anything else, so he had to tell the truth:

   "It's when the doctor on TV introduced the newborn's skin..."

   Reasonable, the reason why Roland opened his mouth to respond was for the purpose of saying everything without deceiving.

  After the Sony case, such small things will no longer be on his concealment list.

   But what he didn't expect was that when he told the truth, the guy sitting on his lap not only didn't feel the joy when he learned the truth, but changed his face instantly and looked at him with a shocked look.

  Most importantly, she also let out an exclamation—

   "What?

  You came back when the doctor introduced newborn skin?

  That is to say, when I was talking to myself, you were already there?

   Oh! My! God!

   Did you hear it all? "

  ‘What the fuck? '

  The inexplicable words made Roland a little confused.

  He wondered why Kate was so excited.

  But when Roland followed his wife's words and found the corresponding situation from the memory a few minutes ago, his wife's beep-like behavior just now made him understand the reason for Kate's excitement.

   "Pfft..."

   Roland raised his hand to cover his mouth.

   But the spontaneous smile couldn't be stopped.

   "Oh! Oh! Oh!"

  The ensuing exclamation was an instinctive reaction.

  The most important thing is that he also discovered that the current topic, which made him feel overwhelmed by the atmosphere, disappeared, and even allowed him to escape, the embarrassment of "I don't know how to celebrate".

   "I get it! I get it!"

   Roland clapped his hands in line with the principle that if I am not embarrassed, then others are embarrassed.

   "Yes, yes, yes! I heard it all! I heard it all!"

  While giving affirmation, he also added fuel and vinegar to expose the old bottom—

   "You see, you are going to be a mother, and you want to compete with a child?

   Let's just compete for favor? The point is that you still want to compete with your own children?

  What's your dad not easy to earn money, I don't allow you to spend it indiscriminately? '

   What else is ‘your dad’s money is my mom’s and mine, and it has nothing to do with you? '

   Whoops!

   What a man!

  Can you still say the same thing as a child?

   Don't be ashamed to lose it! "

When Roland imitated Kate's appearance and perfectly reproduced the scene he had just seen, Kate, who wanted to talk to her husband about the child, immediately turned her eyes into copper bells, and when she found out, when she mentioned love, love, Her husband was as stupid as a pig, and when he talked about his shame, he was extremely slick, and in her heart, there was an emotion of wanting to fix him.

  Of course, even if Kate wanted to tear Roland apart, she didn't do it right away.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴovᴇl(ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

   Instead, he made claws with five fingers and twisted Roland's waist to test his husband's reaction.

   When she saw that her husband just moved away, didn't even move his buttocks, and even spoke more vigorously, the thought of "I gave you a chance but you can't blame me if you don't cherish it" made her raise her arms.

"Snapped!"

  When the clear voice sounded, the voice of embarrassment and anger suddenly soared.

   "Roland!

  You are courting death! "

   However, when she slammed the hammer at Roland, she didn't notice that Roland, who raised his hand to cover him, smiled happily.

  ...

   Well, Roland and Kate would not be so irritable when they get along.

  Because the two sides have nothing to dispute.

  Kate can understand why her husband has to work so hard to make money, and Roland also likes Kate's understanding.

   And today, the reason why Roland 'angered' his wife.

  That's purely because I don't want to show my weakness in front of the other party.

It is true that getting Kate pregnant with his own child has always been on Roland's mind. At the beginning of the pregnancy, he even thought about how to celebrate after the result came out, such as adding something to his wife's jewelry cabinet. Another example is to build a horse farm in Los Angeles for the wife who likes horses, and then raise a pair of British purebloods, but...

  These methods are actually still feedback on the material.

  At that time, Roland felt that money was the best way to show how much he valued his children.

   But this is already the old calendar!

  After the Sony case, Roland, who really hoped that Kate could give him a child, felt that these things were not worthy of his desire! When he thought that money could no longer measure his feelings, he was no longer willing to continue talking about money with Kate on the matter of pregnancy! Because he felt that the way of buying and selling people that he thought of at the beginning could no longer cope with the current situation!

   But at the same time as this decision was made, problems related to it also emerged—

  If you don't talk about money with Kate, what are you talking about?

  Hold each other and cry?

   Stop kidding, it's a shame!

   How about putting your arms around each other and telling your excitement?

  But if the narration cannot be summed up on the bed, all the emotions are actually not in place!

   In this way, hiding in the entrance and eavesdropping, that's all he can do! And after being caught by Kate on the spot, showing joy while trying to make himself less vulnerable became the key to Roland's embarrassing behavior!

   To put it bluntly, this is to save face and suffer.

   To put it bluntly, this is extremely hypocritical!

   But Roland didn't think it was wrong to do so.

  If the relationship between him and Kate is still maintained by money, then he can show his weakness to the other party without hesitation, because after that, they can still arm themselves with money.

   But when he really regards Kate as his wife, his emotions can be released, but he must not be hysterical.

   After all, his wife and children depend on him for food...

  If he is overjoyed and saddened by something, how will he live in the days to come?

  What if the next time Kate is pregnant, he happens to be in trouble and can't solve it for a while?

  Kate, who doesn't want to distract him, is going to keep holding back like she is now?

   Unrealistic!

  If before, Roland couldn’t understand the meaning of the phrase ‘Only he can understand the strength of an adult’, now, he is very envious of the children’s world, because most of the time, he really doesn’t want to bear it, but…

   Have to endure.

  Let Kate know that she is happy now, that's fine.

   As for others?

  Being able to speak out before death is already the greatest happiness.

   It's just that when he let Kate beat him up violently, then coaxed her to bed, and went to take a shower by himself, the guy under the quilt was actually staring at the bathroom all the time.

  When the sound of the water disappeared and the sound of footsteps approached, she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, and her face was full of happiness that belonged only to herself.

   After Roland carefully climbed onto the bed, she squeezed into her husband's arms like a fish.

  The octopus-like **** made Roland, who had just laid down, look emotional.

   "Isn't the symptom of your pregnancy lethargy? Why are you still awake?"

   "Because I can't sleep."

   "Can't sleep? Why?"

   "Happy!"

   "Happy? Are you happy because you're pregnant? But when I came back yesterday morning, you didn't suffer from insomnia because of pregnancy!"

   "That's why you're not here! What's so happy about me being alone?"

   "..."

  The straightforward words made Roland speechless.

Rubbing the other person's head, he glanced down in the darkness. The guy who turned into a koala made him feel extremely at ease. At a certain moment, he felt that there are some things that don't need to be done before dying told.

  Because of the guy in his arms, he already smelled it.

  ...

Of course, no matter how happy Roland was, he didn't choose to spread the news of his wife's pregnancy. Instead, he accompanied her back to Los Angeles by plane early the next morning, and did further medical treatment at the hospital he had scheduled. After the inspection, he returned home in a low-key manner, and the reason for doing so was actually very simple, that is, he hated trouble and refused to be surprised.

   There is nothing to say about accidents.

   After all, in this country where freedom is rampant, it is impossible to be perfect in prevention.

   Not to mention that twenty years later, herd immunity has been turned into breeding Gu.

  When such issues involving life safety can be treated in such a child's play, the official announcement of pregnancy is actually asking for trouble.

  Roland believes that with his current status, when the outside world finds out that his wife is pregnant, institutions that want to take care of pregnant women and newborns will definitely flock to her.

He may be able to distinguish the good from the bad, but he can't stand the instigation of his relatives and friends. If Kate accepts the recommendation of a certain party and is interested in some new things, the decision to be a guinea pig will make him go berserk .

   No way, who made this kind of thing directly linked to life?

   When he was sure that he already liked the other party, Roland would never take any risks.

   And troublesome...

   In fact, it is also brought about by the improvement of status.

Although Roland has already retired, when the news of his wife's pregnancy spread, the word "hustle and bustle" will definitely be reflected in his family. Those guys who want to have a relationship with him but can't find a way will definitely visit under the banner, and those Guys who are already related to him but want to continue to strengthen will definitely continue to visit.

  Even if Roland doesn't hate socializing, he doesn't welcome this kind of meaningless and boring socializing.

  The most important thing is that he can't directly invite them out with the way of "Farewell~" like Brother Shuang.

  In this way, choosing silence is the best way to gain leisure.

   And for Kate—

   It doesn't really matter whether someone bothers you, what matters is that your husband is always by your side.

  Just as Roland thought, Kate, who used her husband's card all the year round, didn't care what her husband would give her after she became pregnant, because in her opinion, these things were meaningless.

  If you want to buy it, you can buy it anytime.

  Spending here and there, it’s all my own money.

   What do you mean?

   What really excites her is actually pulling the other party every day to do something she wants to do.

  Get up today and want to eat bear biscuits?

   Then take your husband to do it together!

  Get up tomorrow and want to eat grilled fish?

   Then you can go to sea that day!

  It’s true that she wants to be a noble lady, but she hates widowed marriages, and when her husband is rich, handsome and always on call...

   What are other people's congratulations?

   Even if there is no blessing from outsiders, so what?

   Because of ourselves, that is happiness!

  However, when Kate was obsessed with her husband and Roland was willing to accompany his wife, there were actually other people in their world, because there was a little guy who would head straight to their kitchen with his schoolbag after school every day.

   And when entering the door, she will shout loudly—

   "Rolland~"

   "Kate~"

"I'm back!!"
