Chapter 45
Aunt Saria's Italian food was indeed delicious enough to conquer the two big stars.
Audrey happily chatted with the other party in Italian, not only talking about food, but also chatting about heaven and earth. Henry acted as a translator, relayed to Katherine who didn't understand Italian, and occasionally helped Katherine interject.
By the end, even without Henry's translation, Katherine seemed to be able to intervene in the Italian exchange between Saria and Audrey, laughing when she should laugh, and making expressions when she should.
According to Henry's observation, besides the tacit understanding between women, the most important thing is the body movements used in the process of using Italian, which are easier to learn than the language itself.
Seeing more, Katherine also figured out the doorway, and learned it without a teacher.
And the fixed program after the meal, of course, is the photo of the boss and the big star.
This era is still the era when Polaroid cameras are popular, and most stars will not refuse the photo of Polaroid cameras. Because this thing has no film, it is very difficult to change or want to move crooked thoughts afterwards.
If the photo is not preserved properly and is destroyed, then this photo will never exist, and you want to save it. This uniqueness makes Polaroid photos more precious.
So the two Ms. Hepburns took photos with the boss couple respectively, and left a message at the same time. This kind of romance belonging to Polaroid is something that young people in the future digital camera era cannot experience.
After finishing this delicious lunch, Henry drove the two ladies to the city center of Los Angeles.
Ronnie Insurance Manager Company is located on a high floor of a certain commercial office. And this commercial office is not something anyone can walk into, press the elevator, and sit on any floor at will.
The joint reception and security personnel in the lobby on the first floor will dutifully block people who are not qualified from the outside. Anyone who is not a building staff wants to enter, there is only an appointment in advance.
The arrival of Katherine and Audrey, the two Ms. Hepburns, did not encounter the situation of little ghosts blocking the road. Because Mr. Welsh Ronnie waited in the lobby on the first floor in person, welcoming the distinguished guests who made an appointment today.
This is an old gentleman who is not younger than Audrey Hepburn, and his wide body and decent clothes all reveal that he is an old-school elite white-collar worker.
And the two are also old acquaintances. As soon as they met, they came to a cheek-kissing ceremony. Ronnie used the eyes that Henry also understood, and asked with excitement: "Ms. Hepburn, it is an honor to serve you again."
"Little Wei, I came uninvited, you won't block me outside, right." Katherine was a step late, but also came to a cheek-kissing ceremony with Mr. Ronnie.
Welsh Ronnie said: "Oh, another Ms. Hepburn. I welcome you two to come in time, how could I block you outside. Who is this?" The old gentleman noticed the young man behind the two big stars.
Audrey introduced: "This is Henry, my newly hired assistant."
Henry took out a champagne tied with a red ribbon from the paper bag at the right time and handed it forward, saying: "Good day, Mr. Ronnie. This is the heart of the two Ms. Hepburns."
"Oh, this is really too thoughtful." Welsh Ronnie took the champagne back into the paper bag and led the way for everyone. "Come, please follow me. The security team I want to introduce is already waiting in my office."
With Mr. Ronnie taking the lead, the security personnel in the lobby on the first floor naturally couldn't block the road, and diligently pressed the elevator button for the group, and blocked the elevator door until everyone entered.
As an American who does high-end customer business, no matter how sloppy his private living habits are, there will inevitably be a very comfortable facade used to receive guests.
Ms. Hepburn and others were welcomed into this facade reception hall. And there were already four strong men waiting one step ahead.
Audrey Hepburn and Katharine Hepburn, although they are no longer in their prime, they have not stayed away from the screen. Even if it is not the prosperous face of the peak period, there are still many people who recognize what they look like now.
Of course, the few white big men know very well what their purpose is today, and they also know who the object they might be hired to protect is. So the moment Audrey Hepburn appeared, they all stood up to greet them.
In fact, even if the employer did not appear, the lady entered the door, and the gentlemen stood up to greet them is also a gentleman's etiquette.
Welsh Ronnie first introduced to Audrey: "Ma'am, this is the security team member I want to introduce to you. The person in charge is Brian Mills, and the others are Sam Gilroy, Mark Casey, and Bernie Harris. ——"
Every time he introduced one, Audrey shook hands with the other party to express her respect.
"——They are soldiers who retired from the US Army Special Forces, Green Berets. Now they have established their own security company, specializing in providing protection services for distinguished people.
"Although it is a newly established company, I have asked their superiors when they were in the army, and each one gave quite excellent evaluations.
"Not only have they had experience of being stationed overseas more than twice, they are also honorably retired and have no dishonorable experience. If you want to say shortcomings, it is that they do not accept long-term tasks.
"However, this just meets Audrey's visit to Somalia this time. They will be responsible for your entry and exit safety during the itinerary until you return to the civilized world."
Audrey Hepburn asked puzzledly: "I just accept the arrangement of the United Nations to visit the child aid facilities in the local area. And make an assessment, take photos, and use it to cooperate with fundraising activities. Do I need to be so big?"
Brian Mills, who is in his prime, benefited from his military career and took off the childishness of teenagers. Combined with his angular facial contours, especially those firm and energetic eyes, it is easy to leave a deep impression on people at first sight.
He stood out and used that low, as if self-contained echo effect voice and said: "Ma'am, we also hope that this world is peaceful and safe. But it is not, is it. The insurance company recommends us, and its intention is just to ensure your safety, that's all."
A team recommended by an insurance company?
Katherine said on the side: "Little Wei, I thought these few young guys were found by you?"
Welsh Ronnie explained: "Katherine, I have always stood in the customer's position to ask the insurance company, and then choose the most powerful one for the customer from the conditions provided by various insurance companies.
"Today, besides the insurance premium being particularly affordable, Pacific Property also actively provides a security team to ensure that everything goes smoothly. This is also the reason why these few strong young guys are here.
"However, their origin and reputation, I investigated personally. It is not that Pacific Property provided any information, and I reported the same content to you. So they are indeed trustworthy, I can guarantee this."
