บท 666: Chapter 666
With the release of The Green Hornet, it grossed $51 million on its opening weekend in North America. Sony's vigorous promotion had some effect; However, Universal was more interested in the overseas market performance!
Bradley Cooper mainly promoted in the European and American markets, while Stephen Chow handled the Asian market, but all the main actors gathered in Japan.
Meanwhile, Charles went to Spain to watch the first leg of the Champions League semi-final between Real Madrid and Arsenal at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
Latin pop star Shakira, who was on a world tour, also came to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium at Charles's invitation.
"Congrats, dear! You've had quite the year," in the private box, Charles and Shakira hugged.
After the World Cup ended last year, Shakira released her Spanish album Rising Sun in October;
She also kicked off her "Rising Sun World Tour" and received the Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award this year!
"Charles, the tour will soon be in the US. You better come to watch," Shakira sat on Charles's lap. There was still half an hour before the match started.
"How long will this tour last? I remember you've already done quite a few shows," Charles recalled the number of concerts Shakira had performed.
"It'll end by October. This tour covers over 40 countries!" Shakira said, giving Charles a kiss on the cheek, "It won't be long before I perform at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami."
"By the way, isn't the NFL on strike? I became a minor shareholder of the Miami Dolphins last year," Shakira added.
"How many shares do you have?" Charles laughed, playfully poking her.
"As if you aren't worried, why should I be?" Shakira's chest brushed against Charles's body, "I'm supposed to get my star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame by the end of this year; I've already received the nomination committee's notification."
Charles nodded, "You're an international star now. Getting a star on the Walk of Fame means nothing to me, but for many celebrities, it's a status symbol."
"By the way, is that Barcelona defender Gerard Pique still after you? Last year, he was head over heels for you!" Charles was getting nosy.
"We kept in touch, but we didn't date," Shakira lightly slapped Charles, "I've been busy with my album and tour."
"Last year, there were rumors about us too. I didn't need more trouble from the press!" Shakira said.
"Good thing too. That guy looks like a playboy," Charles laughed, "Totally not right for you!"
"A playboy? Is there anyone more of a playboy than you, Charles Capet?" Shakira responded.
"Hmm..." Charles kissed her straight away, his hand reaching into Shakira's bra to touch the softness.
"Charles, the match is about to start. Let's watch the game first. This semi-final has even more attention than Manchester United vs. Barcelona..." Shakira reminded, slightly aroused.
Real Madrid was second in La Liga, just behind Barcelona, while Arsenal currently topped the Premier League, with Manchester United in second; this Champions League semi-final between the Premier League and La Liga giants drew global attention!
"Jose Mourinho again, huh? Last year, he led Inter Milan but lost to us in the Champions League final. Now he's at Real Madrid," Charles stroked his chin, intrigued.
Shakira kept her eyes on the field, "He became Real Madrid's coach last summer. You know how strong Barcelona is now!"
"I only know that Arsenal is very strong too; they were quintuple champions last year," Charles was more worried about Barcelona after, not Real Madrid.
"Will you watch the Manchester United vs. Barcelona game tomorrow?" Shakira inquired.
Charles shook his head, "No, I'm heading back to the US tomorrow."
Because Manchester United definitely couldn't stop Barcelona. Even if Arsenal won over Real Madrid, they'd face the peak-performing Barcelona in the final at Wembley Stadium!
...
In the end, at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, Real Madrid and Arsenal ended in a 1-1 draw, with goals from Luka Modric for Arsenal and Marcelo for Real Madrid.
After congratulating the coach and team, Charles and Shakira headed back to their hotel, already late at night after their meal.
"Arsenal scored an away goal. It'll be hard for Real Madrid when they head to Arsenal's home ground next week," Shakira thoughtfully analyzed once they were back at the hotel.
Sitting on the bed, Charles hugged her waist and joked, "What if Ronaldo performs exceptionally?"
"Then wait for next year..." Shakira said before pinning Charles down, kissing him. "Will you go to Emirates Stadium for the next leg?"
"Probably not, just for the final at the end of May in the UK," Charles replied while helping Shakira undress, "Of course, that's if Arsenal can beat Real Madrid and make it to Wembley!"
"They'll win! Arsenal is really strong right now. It'll be the Premier League champions against the La Liga champions - a clash of the titans!" Shakira, now in just her lingerie, exclaimed.
Soon, she began kissing Charles's chest while he unclasped her bra, tossing it aside.
"Are you leaving tomorrow night?"
"Yes, what about you?" Charles asked, enjoying the feel of her hair.
"I'm leaving too, to continue the tour. If I have time during the Champions League final, I'll come to the UK to find you!" Shakira said, unzipping Charles's pants.
"Alright," Charles responded, lying on the bed, his hand now on Shakira's waist...
Shakira truly lived up to her nickname "She-Wolf," as it was bound to be another sleepless night!
