Chapter 242 Son of God

In the afternoon, after finishing his training, Link drove back to the villa. Through the car window, he saw a ripe lemon on the lemon tree in the botanical garden. It was orange-yellow, like a tennis ball. He picked the lemon with a pole, smelled it, and found the scent refreshing.

"Hey, Link, what are you doing there?"

Mr. Scott Stuber from the neighboring villa district was walking by on the sidewalk with five pet dogs.

The dogs were of various sizes, including poo...

Chapter 241: Link's Flaws

Bang! Bang!

"Morales, move faster! Keep your distance. Remember, when you fight Link, you must keep your distance. He's fast and agile, and if you get too close, you'll only get hit."

At the Muscle Beach boxing training ground, Coach Brooks shouted at the two people sparring in the ring.

He was mainly instructing sparring partner Morales, hoping he could last a few more rounds with Link and create some difficulties for Link's training.

As for Link...

After...

Chapter 240: Leonardo DiCaprio's Invitation

On the evening of the 25th, the American Music Awards ceremony concluded at the Nokia Center.

Taylor swept five awards, becoming the biggest winner of the music awards. Link, who didn't feel wronged, was considered by the media as "the most frustrated person at the American Music Awards."

Based on the sales of his two albums exceeding five million copies within a year, he would have been qualified to win Artist of the Year in any other year.

This time, due to MJ's pas...

Chapter 239: Big Machine Records

After answering a few questions, Link said goodbye to the reporters and editors and returned to the party.

After the American Music Awards ceremony, Vanity Fair held a celebration party at the Hilton Hotel, inviting many singers to attend. Link, Taylor, Selena, and Lana were all there.

"Link, will you be raffling off these two trophies?"

Lana walked over from the crowd with a champagne glass, wearing a white pleated skirt and loose brown curly hair, looking elegant an...

Chapter 238: American Music Awards

"Who were you talking to? Why did you hang up when you saw us coming down?"

Taylor and Selena came down the stairs one after the other.

The two had just changed into new outfits upstairs, preparing to attend the American Music Awards ceremony that night.

Taylor was wearing a long black dress with a small suit jacket and black high heels, which made her figure look even taller and slender.

Selena was wearing a black leather jacket with a red dress underneath and ...

Chapter 237: Not Your Pregnancy

When Link arrived at the movie theater lobby, most of the crew from "The Fighter" were already there, including producer Darren Aronofsky, director David O. Russell, and Christian Bale.

Link hadn't seen them since leaving the set in April, and now that they were together, they had a lot to catch up on.

"Link, when is your next album coming out? I'm a fan of your music now."

Christian Bale said with a smile.

"Really? Probably around March or April."

Link sm...

Chapter 236: Movie Premiere

Link drove to Hollywood Boulevard and met Selena, who had arrived earlier, at an outdoor cafe outside the theater. She was wearing a blue off-the-shoulder dress, her long dark brown hair flowing over her shoulders. Her slightly chubby face and delicate collarbones made her look like a young woman coming of age.

"What took you so long? I've been waiting here forever," Selena said, her eyes lighting up as she saw him, but then she pouted, feigning annoyance.

"Wow, who's this ...

Chapter 235: Celebrity Neighbors

In the morning, the weather in Santa Monica was fine, and the outdoor temperature in the morning was above 12°C, which is a very comfortable environment for North America, which is gradually entering winter.

Facing the golden morning sun, Link was wearing headphones, a red sports T-shirt and shorts, with 20 pounds of weights tied to his legs and waist, and strode forward on the Bay Highway, starting from the beach villa and running to the guitar-shaped pier.

Watch a sunris...

Chapter 234: Tour Guests

In mid-October, Link's first tour began. The first stop was Miami, and the concert was held at the Hard Rock Stadium, where the WBA boxing championship was held.

The first concert attracted 87,000 Miami audience to watch.

It was more lively than Lady Gaga's concert in Miami.

The first song of the first concert was "See You Again", a duet with Wiz Khalifa, and the second half attracted tens of thousands of people to sing along.

The finale is the Spanish song "Des...

Chapter 233: The Single Man

"Hi, Emma!"

After a scene was finished, Emma Stone walked over from the set, wearing a blue dress, her figure was very good, her appearance was not top-notch, but she was highly recognizable, with a pair of pine green eyes, giving people a very smart feeling.

"Hi, boss, you're here."

Emma Stone brushed the hair beside her ear and smiled at him slightly.

Link raised his eyebrows. He had just praised her for being smart, but he wanted to take back that word in a b...

Chapter 232: Visiting the Set

In the tenth week of its release, "Fearless" sold 78,000 copies in the United States and dropped to fourth place on the Billboard album sales chart, almost exhausting its potential.

The champion is the fourth studio album "Crazy Love" released by Canadian pop jazz male singer Michael Buble, with first-week sales of 147,000 copies.

The runner-up is Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli's "Christmas Special", 125,000 copies.

The third place is Madonna's newly released selection ...

Chapter 231: Multiple Good News and One Bad News

After the WBA-WBC super middleweight gold belt unification battle, Link flew back to Los Angeles. When he returned, the fake news about him cheating was still popular on the Internet.

Therefore, when he walked out of Los Angeles International Airport, many reporters stopped him and asked him who the mysterious lady was.

Link said it was Taylor, and he had already held a press conference at the London airport.

The reporters asked again, where is Taylor? Why didn't they...

Chapter 230: Face the Consequences

"Ms. Anna is here!"

At eight o'clock, Anna arrived at the hotel. The media reporters in the lobby swarmed around her like mice discovering a cake, throwing one question after another at her.

"Ms. Anna, is Mr. Baker up yet? Can he accept our interview?"

"Ms. Anna, yesterday a reporter photographed you entering the hotel with a mysterious lady. Who is she?"

"Ms. Anna, it is said that Link and Miss Knightley had a pleasant conversation at the Dior fashion show. Is ...

Chapter 229: Link Cheating?

"Link, the London police are here. They want to come in and check the scene. Is it convenient?"

In the B25 hotel suite, Simon came in from outside. Two uniformed police officers were standing in the hallway.

"Tell them it's not convenient now, please ask them to come back later."

Link glanced at them, sat down, and continued browsing the news.

The Sun reporter, Bernard Gary, continued to explain in the report that after the thief Biggs was rescued, he had convul...

Chapter 228: The Shadow Outside the Window

Knock, knock, knock!

In the bedroom of B25 Hotel, Link was sleeping. Hearing a clear knock on the door, he yawned, turned over and got out of bed, casually picking up the watch on the bedside table to glance at it. It was 6:10 in the morning.

Pulling open the curtains, a golden morning ray, through the towering spire of Tower Bridge, shone on the floor-to-ceiling window, clear as water, with a slight early autumn chill.

Outside the window, the Thames still flowed quie...

Chapter 227: Monitoring the Wind and Clouds

At the O2 Arena, after the WBC-WBA boxing title unification match, other weight class competitions continued on the stage.

Interested spectators could continue watching, while those who weren't could leave early.

Most of the audience chose to get up and leave, and the once packed boxing arena gradually became sparse.

Gary, holding a recorder, randomly interviewed several spectators, asking for their opinions on the match.

Eighty percent of the interviewees gave ...

Chapter 226: Surrounded by Stars

"Hehe, my dear father, did you see that? Link's weakness and retreat were all tactics, not a decline in skill. What do you have to say now?"

In New York, Dino Duva looked at the TV interview and turned to his old man with a grin.

Lou Duva glared at him fiercely, cursed "unfilial son," and walked away angrily with his cane.

"Dad is old, why are you provoking him?"

Nora blamed him.

Dino grinned and said nonchalantly, "I bet he's not really angry. He's probab...

Chapter 225: Post-Match Interview

After the match, Link, holding two championship belts, walked down from the boxing ring surrounded by people.

"Link, well done!"

Coach Brooks came over and patted him on the shoulder. "But you're too good. You didn't give me, the coach, a chance to shine."

Link smiled and said that for the next match, he might need his guidance. As he spoke, he took the clothes handed over by Anna and put them on.

Although he was drenched in sweat, putting on clothes would be un...

Chapter 224: A Formidable Opponent

"Is Link going to lose?"

"No way! Go, Link!"

In the audience on the east side of the ring, Emma Watson shouted.

"Emma, don't forget you're British. You should be cheering for Carl."

Rupert teased.

"Shut up and cheer!"

"It's no use. Everyone is cheering for Carl now. Just the few of us cheering for Link won't make a difference. But I think it's understandable that Link might lose. He's a singer now, with no time to practice boxing. I heard he also has...

Chapter 223: Link Takes a Step Back

As Link arrived at the O2 Arena entrance, he answered a few questions from reporters. Just as he was about to enter, he saw his opponent, Carl Froch's, motorcade arrive. He glanced back at Froch, recalling his profile.

32 years old, 185cm tall, 186cm reach, debuted in 2002, current record of 26 wins and 1 loss, 24 wins by KO. His only defeat was against Mikkel Kessler in the WBA European title fight last year.

Chapter 222: Before the Match Begins

"I'm off to work."

In an apartment in the East End, Officer Ryder finished his bread in a few bites, grabbed his cap from the table, and stood up.

"Dad, can I have a pair of roller skates? Tom downstairs has them."

His son, Harry, looked up and said in a crisp voice.

"You're only five. It's too dangerous to play with roller skates. I'll buy you a pair next year."

Officer Ryder said with a slight headache.

"Okay!"

Harry pouted in disappointment,...

Chapter 221: Surveillance

"Shit!"

On the street, Gary watched Link's car drive away and kicked a metal trash can. A few empty water bottles bounced out.

He had spent £200 on a delivery uniform to sneak into the building, but Link had left with his bodyguards shortly after. It was all for nothing.

"Damn it, I ran up and down more than twenty flights of stairs. I'm exhausted, Bernard. Should we keep following?"

Charlotte walked over with her toolkit, sweating and frustrated.

Gary ad...

Chapter 220: Fame and Fortune

"Bernard, this seems to be Daniel Radcliffe's house."

On Hampton Avenue, Detective Charlotte sat in a black Lotus car, peering through the window at several townhouses.

"Yes, reporters have photographed Daniel here before."

Reporter Gary leaned against the car window, holding a telephoto lens camera, constantly looking at the upstairs windows.

Suddenly, he saw a glimpse of Robert with golden hair on the balcony, which should be Daniel's house, where Link and Emm...

Chapter 219: The Gathering

Hampton Street is located in the Islington district of North London, the cultural and artistic center of London.

There are many theaters around, including the Pleasance Theatre, Almeida Theatre, King's Head Theatre, Sadler's Wells Theatre, and the famous Egg Bar is also nearby.

Daniel Radcliffe's residence is less than 800 meters away from the King's Head Theatre. It is a dozen-story townhouse with a grid-like marble panel exterior, Gothic double-pointed windows, and staine...

Chapter 218: Keira Knightley

Morning, London Tower Hotel, Room B25.

Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, brightening the room. The sounds of the flowing Thames River and the whistles of cruise ships also drifted in with the sunlight.

While having breakfast, Link sat by the window and glanced through the day's newspapers.

British newspapers such as The Times, The Sun, and the Daily Mail all reported the news of his arrival in London for the competition and his responses at ye...

Chapter 217: The Paparazzi's Tricks

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the training center, Link completed half an hour of jump rope training, an hour of weight training, and two hours of sparring, working up a good sweat and tiring himself out. However, the training also helped alleviate the jet lag and discomfort from the long flight, leaving him feeling refreshed.

By the time he left the training center, night had fallen over the Thames in London. During the day, the streets were bustling with traffic and lined with bil...

Chapter 216: Emma's Plan

After a light meal at the hotel consisting of toast, milk, and grilled meat brought from the US, Link returned to his room. He was cautious about his diet before the match to avoid any digestive issues, sticking to familiar foods and avoiding anything spicy or distinctly British.

Back in his room, he received a call from Emma, asking when he would visit her. Link felt a bit uneasy. He had intentionally reduced contact with her since she left Miami the previous year, hoping they c...

Chapter 215: Press Conference

"Good afternoon, passengers. This is Jenny, your chief flight attendant on United Airlines flight UA714. We have safely arrived in London airspace and are preparing for a smooth landing. For your safety, please remain seated with your seatbelt fastened until the seatbelt sign has been turned off and before the cabin door is opened."

"Mr. Baker, we are about to land, and there may be some turbulence. Please take caution."

In the business class section of the Boeing aircraft,...

Chapter 214: Paparazzi in Action

After becoming a top star in the music industry, Link's every move attracted a lot of attention.

As his plane was still flying over the Atlantic, a senior entertainment journalist from the London *Sun* newspaper was planning something big.

London in September, at The Sheaf pub on the Thames East Dock.

There was a hint of chill in the air, and the sycamore leaves by the street were starting to turn yellow, curling inward. The hanging double fruit bal...

Chapter 213 Preparing for the Fight

"Hi! Ivanka, what's the matter?"

After answering the phone, Link bit the bullet and chatted with Ivanka in front of Taylor.

Fortunately, Ivanka was talking about business. Lana's first single "Young And Beautiful" was also released last week.

The first week sales were 12,000 copies, ranking 42nd on the Billboard singles chart.

The ranking is lower than "Let It Go".

But professional magazines such as "Rolling Stone", "Billboard", and "Pocket Music" gave thi...
