Hollywood What If Chapter 178

[Note: I'm having a mental block and I didn't know how to advance the plot so I decided to use a different point of view for this chapter. I hope tomorrow I can think of another idea.]

"Mommy! Mommy! MOMMY! YOU FUCKING WHORE! COME OUT!"

Mara Cohen screamed hysterically as she went to the pool. She was a spoiled child who was very childish. She was holding a newspaper, gripping it in anger. 

She screamed like a maniac, she found a table and flipped it with madness.

"Honey, what are you doing? Are you okay?"

Eliza Cohen was relaxing in the pool with her martini. She was clearly having a good life. 

This mansion that she was living in was from her third husband. That person was rich and gave her half of his property. Eliza Cohen was now a millionaire even though she didn't work hard for it. 

"Shenna, go and clean the mess."

"Yes, Ma'am."

Eliza ordered one of her maids that he hired from overseas. These overseas workers were very good at their job and their salary was very cheap. 

She only had to pay 400 dollars for each maid and they didn't even have a problem with it. For these overseas workers, that amount was already huge. 

'Hehe, fucking poor people from 3rd world countries. They are ready to wipe my ass just to please me. Pathetic. I wonder why they go to such lengths just to leave their countries and earn money in foreign countries.'

Anyway, who gives a fuck. For a woman like Eliza Cohen who took advantage of others, these things were not important. 

"Mommy! Why is this happening? This is unfair! Fuck!"

"Oh, honey. You have to calm down, okay?"

Mara was like a crazy dog. She was walking in circles, frustrated and mad. 

"Mommy! You said that I'm going to be a star! That I will be the most beautiful star in this planet!"

"Of course honey. Just like your Mom, you are beautiful. I believe everyone knew that. Isn't that right? Shenna?"

"Ma'am? A yes, you are beautiful and Miss Mara is beautiful as well. You are both beautiful."

The maid, Shenna, was not lying. Her employee and daughter were beautiful. They were like angels, although Shenna knew that they were actually devils in disguise. 

"Fufu, I like your answer and I can see that you are not lying. If you lied to me, I'm not going to feed you, letting you starve to death."

"Thanks, Ma'am."

The maid wanted to leave this mansion but she needed to feed her family. Besides, she was not the only one who was suffering. Her co-workers were suffering just like her. 

"Anyway, your accent is so pathetic. I recommend you to practice English more because you sound like a curly-haired baboon. Better yet, don't speak at all."

Eliza Cohen muttered. 

Shenna nodded and silently cleaned the mess that Mara Cohen had made.

"Honey, why are you mad? Who did this to you?"

"This! This fucking bitch! She stole my role! It's all her fault! She deserves to die!"

The shy Mara Cohen whom Kazir met last year was nothing but a fake persona. Perhaps Kazir dodged a bullet by cutting his relationship with his mother. Because truthfully, his half-sister was insane at such a young age. 

"Aww, let me take a look at the newspaper you're holding."

Mara Cohen gave the newspaper to her mother. She was fuming in anger when she read the article. 

The highest-grossing movies domestically in 1998 were:

1.) Titanic-- 488 million dollars. 

2.) The Hangover Part 2-- 254 million dollars. 

3.) Armageddon-- 198 million dollars. 

4.) Saving Private Ryan-- 190 million dollars. 

5.) There's Something About Mary-- 174 million dollars.

6.) The Waterboy-- 147 million dollars. 

7.) Doctor Dolittle-- 144 million dollars. 

8.) Deep Impact-- 140 million dollars. 

9.) Godzilla-- 136 million dollars.

10.) Rush Hour-- 136 million dollars. 

These ten movies were the highest-grossing of last year. Titanic was very impressive, the movie already surpassed 1 billion dollars and everyone knew why the movie was number 1 this year. 

As for The Hangover Part 2, this movie was distributed by Warner Bros. Eliza Cohen pursed her lips about this movie. The scriptwriter of this movie was her son, Kazir Grey. 

In fact, everyone believes that the success of The Hangover Part 2 was because of the creativity that Kazir Grey had. For that, Eliza Cohen was proud. She believed that her son inherited all of his good sides from him. 

"Mom! Deep Impact is part of the top ten highest-grossing movies this year!"

The worldwide box office of Deep Impact was $349 million. It was an obvious success. 

However, Mara Cohen was not happy because of it. 

Mara Cohen actually auditioned for a role in this movie. The role she was striving to get was Sarah Hotchner, she was Leo Biederman's girlfriend. 

Leo Biederman was the teenager who discovered that a comet was going to hit the Earth. 

Even though Sarah Hotchner didn't have many scenes, it was still an impactful role. 

Unfortunately, someone stole the role from her! It was none other than Scarlett Johansson! 

Because of that, Mara Cohen cursed that the Deep Impact would flop and everyone in the cast would be broken. 

Actually, Mara Cohen auditioned for the role but she never passed the 2nd round. She was immediately rejected because she didn't have any sense of acting ability. 

Indeed, Mara Cohen was beautiful, but she was stiff in front of the camera. Her facial expressions were forced and bleak! 

"Fuck the casting director! That role should have been mine! Mine! I can't believe it!"

Because of that, she had a grudge against Scarlett Johansson...
