Hollywood What If Chapter 265
A man was standing next to Reese and it seemed that they were pretty close. Looking at zero distance between the two.
Angelina was surprised and didn't expect this situation. Still, she kept her smile and congratulated the woman.
Kazir approached Reese as well and greeted her.
"Congratulations Reese, Legally Blonde will be a box office hit."
"Thanks, Kazir. It's your script so I believe the same as well."
"..."
Angelina didn't expect Reese would reply to Kazir. She even looked at Kazir's eyes with no hesitation. Reese didn't show any awkwardness, she was only happy and true to herself.
This was the moment Angelina realized that the woman changed. Last year, back in Napoleon Dynamite III premiere, Reese could not look at Kazir but now she was doing fine. She was not affected by Kazir anymore.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce my boyfriend. Angelina, Kazir, this is Ryan Phillippe."
"It's nice to meet you, Ryan."
"Nice to meet you."
The two men shook hands.
Ryan Phillippe was an actor. He starred in I Know What You Did Last Summer, 54, Playing By Heart, and Cruel Intentions.
"I'm a fan of your movies, director."
"Is that so? I'm happy to hear that."
"I tried to audition for Wanted but I didn't pass the second round."
"Maybe we can cooperate next time."
The two men started talking about their jobs. Almost forgetting the women next to them.
"Um, we will leave now. Have fun guys."
Disappointed that she didn't see the outcome she was looking for, Angelina decided to pull Kazir away from the couple. She thought she would see Reese getting uncomfortable but she saw none of that.
'She moved on... Wow.'
Emotions and feelings can change and disappear. Kazir and Reese stopped seeing each other for almost three years now. It was enough for a person to change.
"Are you not going to say anything?"
Angelina and Kazir sat down.
"Hm? What do you mean?"
"About Reese and her boyfriend."
"They look perfect together. I can see that they are in love. I'm happy for them."
Kazir wished that his friends and relatives would have a good life. No one deserves to suffer.
"... Kazir, you are really a nice person."
Angelina sighed and kissed his cheek. She loved that about him. She knew that Kazir was sincere when he said that.
'That's a good thing because I don't want him to feel jealous that his ex got a boyfriend. His feelings should only be directed at me.'
These past few months, she heard a lot of rumors that Kirsten Dunst was trying to get closer to Kazir. Angelina could testify that the rumors were right, she witnessed it herself when she visited the filming of Spider-Man. She signed a non-disclosure agreement before entering the set, of course.
Anyway, she saw Kirsten trying to flirt with Kazir. The good thing was that Kazir was always serious about his job and he had no intention of playing with the actress. However, Angelina was still mad about it so she dominated Kazir in bed... for a few seconds.
Kazir was not a toxic person and he was sincerely happy that Reese found someone to love.
'He is not toxic, but he just loves movies so much. I think he loves movies more than me...'
"Angelina, why are you looking at me like that? Why are you pouting?"
"Nothing, don't mind me."
She said. A few minutes later, the movie started and the theaters turned dark. Trailers for upcoming movies showed up first.

...
The first weekend of Legally Blonde grossed over $27 million.
This already cemented the fact that Kazir Grey's scripts could make money especially if they were comedy or action genres. Unfortunately for the studios, Kazir never sold any of his action screenplays. He only sold comedies, well, they were profitable so it was not a problem.
While Legally Blonde was raking in money, Spider-Man was doing the same.
The superhero movie grossed $382.53 million after 45 days of screening. Many believed that the movie would be the highest-grossing movie of this year, domestically.
'Perhaps, worldwide. But too bad, there are two movies that can face Spider-Man at the top.'
Kazir thought to himself while sitting on one of the seats in a private plane. Sony gave them a private plane for them to use it this worldwide tour. Their first stop was Japan.
'Harry Potter and Lord Of The Rings will officially start their huge franchise this year and one of them can get the top 1 highest-grossing film of the year. If I'm not wrong, Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone will be the highest-grossing movie this year.'
The cast of Spider-Man was having a "mild" celebration on the plane. Tobey Maguire and James Franco were having a showdown of who could jug a bottle of beer the fastest.
Tobey Maguire was recommended by Leonardo DiCaprio because the two were friends. As for James Franco, Kazir cast the guy because he wanted to keep the original cast. Although he heard that this guy has some scandal...
Anyway, Kazir didn't give a fuck. He knew and accepted the truth regarding Hollywood, this industry was filled with disgusting people.
"Are you not going to join them?" Kazir asked his friend, Willem Dafoe.
"Nah, I'm not used to partying. I like alcohol but not bars and parties."
"Yeah, we are the same."
"It's funny because you're younger than me by two decades but you act like you're already in your 70s. Kazir, you should act like you're age."
"Willem, I believe I'm acting on my age."
"Okay."
Anyway, the two "old" men had a toast and savored the taste of a high-quality wine that the flight attendant served.
It was a good thing that the media wouldn't welcome them and they would directly go to their hotel to rest. Or else, newspapers might have talked about the fact that the cast of Spider-Man was drunk when they landed in Japan.
