章節 709: Chapter 709: The Public's Right to Know
"Is New York still not taking action?" Charles called Ivanka Trump, who was in New York. It was already November, so why hadn't Michael Bloomberg issued the clear-out order yet?
"I don't know. The few hundred protesters arrested the other day were released the next day, but the number of protesters in New York is growing," Ivanka said.
"The tents and sleeping bags in Zuccotti Park are getting more crowded, and it's having a significant impact on the local residents," she continued.
"Mayor Michael Bloomberg strongly condemned these people on TV, and his attitude is getting tougher," she added.
Charles gazed at the fire burning in the fireplace, listening to Ivanka's response on the phone. He guessed that Michael Bloomberg was making final preparations.
The winter temperatures in northern Texas weren't high, so Charles sat on the large couch in front of the fireplace.
"Hmm, keep an eye on it. Michael Bloomberg is definitely going to take strong measures. NBC has already sent a crew to Zuccotti Park. We've got a prime opportunity here, and I want NBC to get the exclusive report," Charles said.
"Should I support the protesters?" Ivanka asked over the phone.
"Support? You yourself are part of the 1% wealthy families," Charles chuckled. "Celebrities who show support often get ridiculed, and if you go, it might backfire."
"Once things happen, you can just condemn the New York government. With so many people involved, Michael Bloomberg's actions won't be small," he added.
"Anyway, that guy is a Republican now, so he's your opponent," Charles said.
"Dear, do you think Michael Bloomberg will dare use the military?" Ivanka asked.
"Heh, the National Guard qualifies, I suppose. Just keep an eye on it; this is a great chance to make yourself stand out," Charles reminded her.
Shortly after, Charles ended the call with Ivanka.
Alexandra Daddario, having finished her bath, walked out with a towel drying her hair, her loose robe barely covering her.
"Charles, this place is so big. You need a helicopter just to get around!" Alexandra Daddario sat on Charles' lap, her fragrance wafting over him.
"Big, indeed," Charles laughed, holding Alexandra Daddario close. Her 36E figure was incredibly enticing.
"Mmm..." His lips met hers, and her robe fell open, revealing her ample assets.
Charles kissed Alexandra Daddario from her neck down to her chest, and she pulled off his robe, straddling him.
"Dear, do you know what I thought of when I came to Texas?" Charles held the trembling Alexandra Daddario tightly and spoke up.
"What did you think of?" Alexandra Daddario, her face flushed, clung to Charles, sweat glistening on her skin.
"I thought of an old movie, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," Charles smiled, recalling how Alexandra Daddario showcased her great body in Texas Chainsaw 3D, which likely wouldn't happen now.
Alexandra Daddario laughed, "I always get offered these sexy horror roles."
"Too bad, the highest-grossing one was Piranha 3D, which you recommended. Last year's Shadows of Death didn't do so well," she noted.
Charles fondled her 36E chest. "No need to take such roles anymore. You can still take parts that show off your figure," he assured her.
"But no more scripts that solely exploit your looks. You can't just be a pretty trophy," he insisted.
Alexandra Daddario nodded, "Got it. Now that I'm your woman, my body is for you to enjoy!"
"Don't worry about it. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 and Part 2 will definitely be huge hits," Charles comforted her.
"And I have high hopes for your comedy Ted this year. You have a significant role as the leading lady, and it could make you famous!" he encouraged.
"Mmm..." Alexandra Daddario kissed Charles, assured by his confidence in Ted.
Soon after, Charles carried Alexandra Daddario into the bedroom. She lay on the bed, naked, her 36E chest prominently displayed, full of temptation.
Charles kissed her chest and looked up at her.
"Men are bound to fall for you," Charles said, propping himself up with a smile.
Alexandra Daddario flipped him onto his back, saying, "Charles, you're just as irresistible to countless women. Who can resist your charm?"
As she spoke, Alexandra Daddario kissed his chest, and then his abs...
...
When Charles returned to Los Angeles, within three days, he received the good news he had been waiting for from Time Warner: Ted Turner had been appointed CEO of Turner Broadcasting System (TBS), overseeing TBS, CNN, and TNT at Time Warner.
"Congratulations, Ted!" Charles celebrated with Ted Turner at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.
"Thank you, Charles," Ted Turner felt energized. "By the way, Charles, negotiations between the NBA and the players' union have restarted. We've got to get the NBA season started!"
Currently, the broadcasting rights for NBA games were mainly held by ABC, ESPN, and TNT. Canceling the season would seriously hurt not only the NBA but also these three networks.
ABC and ESPN were part of Disney, but for Time Warner, TNT couldn't withstand the losses either.
"The NFL's been playing for almost two months now. The NBA really needs to start soon," Charles shrugged. "My New York Dreamers just moved to New York, and I want the labor talks to wrap up quickly as much as anyone."
"But there's even bigger news waiting for us. I don't think you want CNN to miss out on this event, right?" Charles hinted.
"An event?" Ted Turner smiled, understanding Charles was referring to the large protests against wealth inequality spurred by the Occupy Wall Street movement.
"Of course, CNN won't miss it. The protests have reached Washington, D.C. The public's right to know!" Ted Turner said, finishing his drink in one gulp.
