Chapter 2658 Hollywood Rhapsody (XVI)
Stark and the others made a lot of noise in the middle of the night, and they were all a little tipsy when they returned to Beverly Hills. Fortunately, considering Pepper's situation, no one was really drunk. Going to bed on an empty stomach after drinking might result in a hangover and headache, so they ate some snacks around the table in the living room.
Jarvis and Wanda also came down quickly, but Schiller was nowhere to be seen. Stark asked, "Where's the doctor? And the ball of sand we caught earlier, where did they go?"
"Doctor Schiller took him back to the hotel." Wanda's expression was a little complicated. She said, "The doctor said it's a bit noisy here, which is not conducive to his work, so he took Baker back to the hotel."
Stark immediately looked unhappy.
But this look has a different meaning in the eyes of others.
"Tony Stark is this kind of egomaniac." Polaris said very directly in the backstage interview. She stretched out a hand and gestured with her palm completely open in front of her chest. "He thinks all his friends should do what he wants, right?"
"They should follow his instructions on where to go and what to do. If he needs them and they disappear, they are letting him down." Polaris said with annoyance, "Then he will come up with all kinds of excuses, like I pay you, it's your duty, or the conditions you proposed are nothing to worry about."
"He's like the most annoying boss ever assembled. He never considers other people's feelings. I can't remember how many times he's bossed me around like that."
"Yes, I need this job, and I have to earn money under him, so I can't say bad things about him behind his back, but I still can't help it. Doesn't he pay me a salary, so I can't complain about those unreasonable demands?"
"Like Schiller, we all know that psychiatrists need a quiet environment when treating patients. Stark must be thinking, isn't the villa he spent a lot of money on quiet enough?"
"But please, Wanda is a new mother, and she has two little beasts in her arms that can't communicate at all. One is fine, and the other is crying again. How can this be called a quiet environment?"
Polaris kept shaking her head, her hair almost flying off her chest. She continued, "He always throws problems onto others. When others try their best to deal with them, he blames them for not doing what he wants. It's not for the good of these people at all. He's just venting his desire to control. I'm too familiar with this kind of person."
"I have to mention Jarvis," Stark also said in a backstage interview. "I know he is really worried about Wanda. That's his duty as a father, yes."
"But he should also consider that Dr. Schiller brought a mental patient to the hotel. What is his condition like? What is the condition of the mental patient like? Can the two of them get along harmoniously? If something goes wrong, can the hotel's security system compare to the one here?"
Stark shook his head, obviously disapproving. He said, "I don't quite understand Schiller either. Although I know he is trying to help me out, how can he not find a quiet room in such a large villa with a good soundproofing system? Does he need a treatment space as big as an airport?"
Jarvis and Wanda came down from upstairs and sat at the table. Wanda slumped on the table as if she had breathed a sigh of relief, picked up a bag of snacks and threw them into her mouth.
Her condition was not good at the moment, and her expression was a little distracted. Carter had a good relationship with everyone here, so she sat next to Wanda and asked her, "Are you okay? Wanda, you look so tired, don't you really want to take a rest?"
“I’m sorry, but I can’t sleep.” Wanda shook her head and said, “I just put Billy and Tommy to sleep, and now I have a terrible headache.”
Then she stood up and said, "I think alcohol might help me sleep. Do you have any unfinished wine?"
Pepper also looked concerned, but her expression seemed a little disapproving. In the backstage interview, she also expressed her point of view.
"I know that a lot of times people need something to numb themselves and just relax, and that can be good for recovery, and I'm not saying that a new mom can't do that."
"Alcohol can relieve fatigue, but it can't solve the problem. When she wakes up, the problem is still there. If this kind of pressure continues, she should think about whether she should change her approach. Otherwise, she will only numb herself with more and more things, which will harm her health."
"I'm a little worried that Wanda will have this tendency, but maybe I shouldn't show my worry so obviously on my face. I know she's already very tired, and this might put more pressure on her."
"And I didn't expect Tony to collapse before her. I knew I should trust Dr. Schiller. Tony's mood has been too unstable recently."
Stark stood up from the table, looked at Wanda and said, "Are you going to get drunk and face your child? Is that what you're going to do?"
Wanda suddenly turned around and glared at him and said, "What does my plan have to do with you? Who are you to tell me what to do here?"
"You're not setting a good example for anyone!" Stark said in a raised voice, "There are many ladies and an expectant mother here. Don't you think you're putting pressure on them?!"
"I just need to rest." Wanda is still able to maintain her sanity. She said, "I never intended to get drunk!"
"But you always show an evasive attitude." Stark was obviously a little angry. He said: "You want people to see how difficult it is for you, but this does not mean anything except making ladies anxious!"
Wanda looked at him as if he were a madman. She said, "I'm used to drinking before going to bed. Why are you making such a fuss? My husband is Jarvis. What does all this have to do with you?!"
"I told you, you make people anxious."
"Are you saying that I shouldn't be here? Indeed, this is your home, and neither me nor my child should rest here, right?"
"I never said that, but you..."
"Tony." Jarvis interrupted him. He walked over, held Wanda's shoulders, and whispered something in her ear. Wanda pursed her lips, turned back and glared at Stark, then went upstairs.
Stark's thumb and index finger kept rubbing, his upper and lower lips were pursed and pressed together, and kept moving, then he suddenly sat down without saying a word.
"Sure enough! What did I say! What did I say?! Without the doctor here, they will definitely be in chaos!"
The documentary screen slowly zoomed out until it reached the lower right corner of the screen. Three young people appeared on the screen, two white girls and one black girl. They were all dressed very fashionably, and two of them had a lot of earrings.
"I think Stark is being completely unreasonable." The girl on the left said, "He can't do this to a mother who has done her best. Wanda obviously coaxed the child very well. She is just a little tired and needs to relax. She shouldn't be criticized like this."
"Yes, but I think Wanda may not have understood what he meant. I think Tony may have been saying, 'Don't act like you're so hard up that you have to numb yourself with alcohol in front of another expectant mother.' That does put some pressure on people, doesn't it?" The girl in the middle turned to look at her companions.
"Of course, no matter what, his attitude is really terrible and he is a complete jerk," the girl added.
“I don’t think it’s right.” The black girl next to him touched her chin and said, “They told each other that the other was unstable at the beginning of the first season. Of course, now it seems that each of them is more unstable than the other, but I still think Stark is a bit too radical.”
"Why don't you hear what the doctor says? I guess they'll assign him to explain, right? He always does this job." The girl in the middle said, pointing at the screen.
"You must be missing your doctor, ha, you little bitch--" The three girls laughed together.
When Schiller appeared in the backstage interview, they quieted down and listened very carefully to theories that they would never have listened to in school.
"Tony Stark suffers from anxiety. He doesn't just have anxiety, but he really suffers from anxiety. Under this premise, many things are beyond his control, so he looks very much like a psychopath."
"We all know that he shouldn't say that in this situation. He should be considerate of Wanda. In fact, he can do that because he is a healthy adult. As long as he has normal logical thinking, he should be able to understand that raising a child is a very difficult thing."
"And drinking a little before bed to get a good rest is not decadent or unhealthy at all. She is not an alcoholic, but has always been in the habit of doing so. Following the habit itself can make people feel mentally relaxed. Tony is clear about this."
"But why can't he do it? This brings us to the compulsive behaviors of anxiety disorders, which are commonly known as obsessive-compulsive disorder."
"If you don't want to do something but still do it, there must be a reason. Most people do things they don't want to do because of external reasons, such as having to do it or choosing the lesser of two evils."
"But people with OCD do things they don't want to do because of their own reasons, or more precisely, because of their own mental drive."
"Something in their mind is asking them to do something that is inappropriate, and it's not coming from any rational thinking, it's more like mental coding disorder."
"The simplest compulsive behavior is to repeatedly check whether the door is locked and whether the fire is turned off. Reason tells you that you have gone there more than a dozen times, the door is indeed closed, the fire must be turned off, and the circuits are all normal."
"But no, you must go. You must go again. You must go no matter what. Even if everyone looks at you strangely, even if your neighbors can't stand your weird behavior, even if it causes your most important person to worry about you, you must go."
"Compared to the disordered behaviors caused by mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, the most notable feature of OCD is that patients with OCD are mentally clear, they do not have memory disorder, they can think clearly, and even they fully know that they should not do it, but they still do it."
"To go deeper, compulsive behavior is to gain a sense of security. When you go back again and find that the door is locked, you will feel a very small sense of security, thinking that the door is locked and nothing will harm me, which is good."
"The reason is that there is no other source of security, so we can only rely on this most basic and superficial way to gain a sense of security."
