Chapter 970 – Opportunities in Northern Rhodesia

“It’s not accommodating either.” Feiwenli knew as soon as she heard it that Marilyn Monroe knew about the movements of yesterday’s sleepover, and was a little embarrassed, “When two people get along, they always have to be tolerant of each other.”

“You can really tolerate it.” Marilyn Monroe meant it, “Should I prepare safety measures for you?”

Feiwenli shook her head, feeling that Marilyn Monroe’s talk was also too blunt, and whispered, “He doesn’t like it, saying that it makes him feel like his freedom is bound, and he’ll be unhappy.”

Marilyn Monroe sighed secretly, thinking that Vivien Leigh was hopeless, a man is just a man, but it is so accommodating.

The hero of the two men’s mouths made a show of looking out over the sea, and disappeared far out of the women’s sight, and it was impossible to make out the reflection of the breakwater, as the water in the harbor was not calm enough to do so.

Similarly, the dark shadow of the breakwater forms only a very indistinct long band on the water, constantly disrupted by the undulating water. The reflection of the fence on the embankment walkway also gradually joined the wall of the fence.

The morning sun was a little hazy as it usually is, almost calling out the dark shadows – but the sunlight was still bright enough to split the sloping bridge into two symmetrical halves, one half being more shadowy, the other brighter, forming a spire pointing straight down to the lower end of the sloping bridge, where the water was rising up the slope and lapping among the seaweed.

It was quite a write-up, but for a bureaucrat it was perfectly possible to turn a blind eye to Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper, a middle-aged woman of about forty, who had been placed as Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper in the first place, through Vivienne Leigh.

Edina’s looks are mediocre, belonging to the kind of woman who is not noticed, but looks like there is a kind of trustworthy feeling, through the introduction of Fei Wenli, Marilyn Monroe that stupid big girl, very easily accepted.

The arrangement of which was much more convoluted, but when it came to the final interview, on the contrary, it was very simple.

“Ms. Monroe is a very nice person, she’s very kind.” As soon as Edina heard Allen Wilson ask about something, she immediately judged that it was this person in front of her who arranged for her to be at Marilyn Monroe’s side, and even if she wasn’t the originator, she was definitely the one who knew about it, and she couldn’t help but stand up for her employer’s point of view to defend herself.

Alan Wilson was helpless, this is the bad side of non-professionalism, if you really send an agent over from MI6 to successfully infiltrate, you certainly won’t face this kind of problem today, there is no professionalism at all.

“I’m just asking a few random questions, Edina don’t be nervous.” Alan Wilson put on a gentle expression, and in his heart, he also secretly regretted that some of the more specialized areas, it was better not to look for Grace to borrow someone.

Now that he was already the permanent undersecretary of the foreign ministry, he was also considered as half superior of MI6, it was no longer difficult to call on professionals, it was better to let Grace do a good job as a drug lord.

“Does Ms. Monroe usually come into contact with some successful men.” Lighting a cigarette and looking around for a while Allen Wilson made sure that no one was paying attention and started asking questions.

Without realizing that his gesture like this was like a pervert tailing a woman in Edina’s eyes, he carefully answered, “Miss Monroe is in show business, there are times when she naturally has to socialize with some men, and she herself doesn’t like it. There were times when she complained about it, and this and caused the marriage to break up. But she was very kind, and she was very good to her children and to the poor. And sometimes gave me quite a lot of money for my difficulties.”

“No need to answer in such detail.” Alan Wilson opened his mouth and inquired in a low voice, “Are there any political figures, such as people in officialdom, who are similar to me.”

It’s better not to say this sentence, but after saying it, it deepened Edina’s perverted impression even more, and her gaze towards Allen Wilson became peculiar, there’s a big star, and he ran to the United States and still wants to take down America’s popular actress? These officials really have no scruples.

“Ms. Edina?” Alan Wilson took a hard drag on his cigarette and inquired again.

“Oh, Mr. Wilson, Miss Monroe has a very close friend, she calls him John. I haven’t met him though.” Edina, pressed so hard by Allen Wilson, finally remembered a man mentioned by Marilyn Monroe, and in her mouth, Edina could feel that it was a big man.

John? Kennedy? Nothing could be judged by a name alone. After all, John was a very common name, and he had a colleague named John who was a commissioner in Aden.

“Has this man not been to Miss Monroe’s house?” Adina shook her head, Alan Wilson flicked out his cigarette and stopped asking questions, pondering for a moment, “After a while, Grace will arrange for two people to come and assist you, so don’t act too surprised then.”

After a pause and added, “We have no malice towards Ms. Monroe, this is something you don’t have to worry about. Just from the business, we hope to map out some contacts and analyze the attitudes of all parties in the American high society, which is very important for Britain in diplomatic judgment. Miss Monroe is the most popular star in the United States, a good breaking point.”

Alan Wilson didn’t forget to patch up that there was no malice in today’s question.

Then it was back the way it came! Naturally, he didn’t know that just for a moment, the two girlfriends talked about the issue of freedom not being bound, and wondered how Marilyn Monroe was looking at herself in a peculiar way.

“Vivian, why are you blushing?” Alan Wilson was also not at all out of the ordinary, and greeted the Great British Treasure with a jocular smile.

“Nothing, just chatting happily ……” Fei Wenli said this without a clue, as if she was hiding something.

Alan Wilson suspiciously glanced at Marilyn Monroe, seemed to suspect that this American sex goddess, the popular actress who succeeded Rita Hayworth, was not doing something to the Great British Treasure?

As we all know in the movie and television industry, gender has always been stuck not so dead, without personal experience, no one knows whether it is up or down, take Greta Garbo, many people say that she likes women, Alan Wilson of course knows that this is a bunch of nonsense, he at least knows that Greta Garbo also likes men.

Not catching Kennedy pigtails is already enough to disappoint him, and then hitching the Great British Treasure is not a big loss?

Teasing the Great British Treasure made Marilyn Monroe eat a meal of dog food, and she couldn’t help but be a little envious, “You men always show a love for a woman when you are facing her, if it’s true, why don’t you marry her?”

“Love is certainly very important to men, but a man’s life is more than just love. Ms. Monroe, the world demands different things from men and women. You may think you’ve suffered a lot, and I won’t deny that. But a beautiful woman can live a much easier life than a mediocre man.”

Alan Wilson quoted Shakespeare’s famous saying, “To be happy with a man, you should know more about him without having to love him too much; to be happy with a woman, you should love her more but don’t want to know her!”

Marilyn Monroe grunted softly, “Boys think girls are books, and if the cover doesn’t catch the eye, they don’t even want to turn the pages. You need to cherish Vivian, if you can make a girl laugh from the bottom of her heart, then you already have her.”

“I’ve only discovered the inner workings of Ms. Monroe today, I’ve been negligent.” Alan Wilson spoke without thinking, “It is true that we are somewhat unable to empathize with each other as we separately expound on suffering from our own perspectives. But men and women are not enemies, it is always necessary to understand each other, if Vivian is not living a happy life, she can speak out very directly, she knows I will listen.”

“Don’t you guys get into a fight.” Vivienne whispered roundly, “You’re all my friends, what does that make me?”

Vivien Leigh was well aware that Alan Wilson was a professional bureaucrat and that personal feelings were important but ultimately just part of life.

Marilyn Monroe had been through a lot as well, and these two might get into a fight if they discussed it.

In private time Vivien Leigh was also blunt with Alan Wilson, “Monroe is such a nice person.”

“So you say, I mean, it seems like public opinion isn’t what you say it is.” Alan Wilson almost leaked, but rounded it off, “But since she’s a friend of yours, she’s a friend of mine. Very interesting a female.”

At this moment, he had just received a response from Washington, and not surprisingly, Britain’s plot to keep the United States out of the protection of the fraudulent island to show favor to China and fully deal with the problems of Europe had ended in a shameful failure.

But Allen Wilson is not at all surprised, the withdrawal from Asia is not to let Europe be dominated by the United States posture further? It was better not to, and it was best for the United States to stick to its current strategy.

“Your man seems to live with a mask.” Marilyn Monroe was clinging to Vivien Leigh’s departure and was ready to pass on a couple of tricks, Vivien Leigh couldn’t help but laugh, “As if you know anyone similar.”

Marilyn Monroe sees that her BFF is not amused and says, “I do know one, with a deep background or a senator.

“Ms. Monroe still want to point out to you?” On the way back home, Alan Wilson almost laughed out loud, Marilyn Monroe if she had the ability to instruct others, would she still be dead for no reason?

If it wasn’t that laughing didn’t fit his persona of failing to communicate, he would have laughed out loud right now, but not being able to complete the task of the special relationship between Britain and the United States, Allen Wilson could only hold it in.

At this time in the Belgian Congo, Lumumba established the Congolese National Movement Party and raised the slogan of independence, which made the Belgian colonial authorities like an enemy, and before Allen Wilson returned to London, the news had already reached Europe. The annual meeting of the European Community in Brussels was about to take place, and the Belgian side hoped that the countries could express their support for Belgium at the meeting.

“Belgian Congo? The opportunity that Grace requested, has not arisen.” Alan Wilson, who had just returned to London, heard the news and thought of the matter at once, and then sought the Foreign Secretary, Harold Wilson, to repeat his orders.

Learning that the United States rejected the British proposal, the Foreign Secretary did not say much, he has played the responsibility of an ally, since Washington does not recognize, there is no way.

After Allen Wilson mentioned the situation in the Belgian Congo, Harold Wilson solemnly said, “It is indeed a problem, and the Belgian side also hopes that countries can help.”
