Since Leon came to France, Rita had tried her best to postpone all the work she could. She wanted to
have a good time with Leon for a few days, but now she had taken a photo of the cover of a famous
magazine in France, so she couldn't refuse it even if she wanted.
Rita wrapped her arms around Leon's waist from behind. Seeing that he was making breakfast for her,
she felt a little guilty and said, "Leon, I just received a call from my agent. He said... I have to shoot the
cover of a magazine this morning. "
Leon's hands, which were stirring the eggs, stopped for a moment, "You're going to work again?" His
tone was relaxed and there was no unhappiness in it.
Leaning her head against Leon's broad back, Rita nodded hard and complained, "Yes, I just rested for
a few days. I don't want to leave you at all."
She held Leon even tighter.
Leon smiled lightly and patted Rita's hand indicating her to let go of him. "Don't hug me. I'm still making
breakfast. You can go to work after breakfast."
"Eh? Aren't you angry? " Rita turned Leon's body to face her, looked into his eyes and asked in
surprise with her head tilted.
Leon was amused by her cute look. He rolled his eyes at Rita and said, "Is it useful for me to be angry?
Will you cancel the shooting for me? "
Rita looked at Leon seriously, thought for a while and said expressionlessly, "No."
"That's it."
Then Leon put the fried eggs and toasted bread on the plate and went out of the kitchen.
"Then you have to have a try!" Rita followed Leon to the dining room.
After putting the breakfast on the table, Leon turned to Rita and said, "That's just asking for humiliation.
Honey, have breakfast now!"
Leon said naturally without any indignation. There was no angry at all. It could be seen that he had
been accustomed to it.
Sitting at the table, Rita looked at the back of Leon who was pouring milk for her with a cup. She
nodded and said, "You're right."
Leon shook his head helplessly and couldn't help laughing. After all, he had fallen in love with such a
woman.
"Be careful at work and take care of yourself, okay?" Leon sent Rita to the periodical office and
reminded her again.
It was a bit cloudy. It seemed that it was going to rain. The wind was blowing, and Rita's hair was flying
all over the sky. Rita tidied up her hair with her hands and put it behind her ears. She smiled and said
to Leon, "Brother, when did you become so indecisive? You have said this many times in the car."
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. You should go upstairs now!"
"That's more like it. I will go first."
... Rita kissed Leon on the cheek and ran away. She turned around halfway and left with a smile.
This time, the magazine office planned to focus on the topic of "black and red". Because of the
harassment incident, Rita had been from slandered to a great reputation, and now she had become
famous. It was very suitable for this season's theme, so the magazine office invited her to be the cover
girl of this issue.
In order to make the photos taken better and closer to life, the magazine office decided to take photos
on the street.
As soon as Rita entered the periodical office, she was informed to go to the street to shoot. She looked
at her agent in surprise. The agent pulled her aside and explained to her, "I just received the notice.
They didn't tell me where to shoot in advance. I forgot to ask..."
"……" Rita was speechless. Her agent had been with her for a long time and was always reliable. This
time... Forgot it! She didn't know what to say.
"Are you ready? If you are ready, let's go! " An editor of the periodical office came over and asked
Rita's agent.
"Okay, Okay. We'll be right there." The agent nodded to the editor with a smile.
Looking at the editor's back, the agent hesitated and said, "Rita, look..."
Rita was amused by her agent's hesitation. "Let's go. What are you waiting for?"
Then she strode behind a group of staff.
"Okay, let's go!" The agent immediately burst into laughter. He trotted to Rita and helped her press the
elevator button.
It was drizzling outside. Although it was daytime, the sky was gray. Rita didn't understand how they
could take good photos in such a weather?
The photographer seemed to understand Rita's expression. He leaned over to Rita and told her the
reason enthusiastically, "You don't know, our main purpose this time is to take photos of the scene that
you work on rainy days, which is in line with our theme. The reason why you are popular is entirely
depending on your own efforts."
Rita nodded noncommittally. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.
"Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement."
The photographer kept asking Rita to take all kinds of poses. It was almost the rush hour at noon, so
the photographer decided to take the last group of photos.
Rita stood on a slender step by the road and looked up at the sky, letting the rain fall on her face. She
seemed to enjoy it very much.
"Okay, raise your leg a little more, Okay... That's it. " The photographer reminded Rita with a camera.
When Rita was ready, he was about to press the shutter.
"Squeak... Bang! "
Due to the sudden brake of the car, the sound of friction between the tires on the ground and the sound
of hitting people came into Rita's ears. All of a sudden, she only felt a strong pain swept over her whole
brain. Before she lost consciousness, she remembered what Leon had told her this morning...
The agent was discussing the cover with the periodical office, but suddenly heard the sound of brake
and collision. He immediately turned around and saw that Rita was like a kite with a broken line and
was hit a few meters away.
He was stunned for a second and then realized, "Rita!"
Blood... All he could see was blood.
"Hurry up! Call an ambulance!" The photographer quickly put down the camera in his hand and called
out.
"How could this be? There is so much blood..."
The staff surrounded Rita. They were all worried and scared when they saw Rita lose consciousness.
The agent knelt down next to Rita. Rita's face was covered with blood, which frightened him. He
reached out his trembling hand and gently wiped Rita's face, over and over again, but it couldn't be
wiped clean.
"Ambulance! Did someone call ambulance?" The agent couldn't help shouting at the people around
him.
"Yes, I did. They are on the way."
The drizzle was getting heavier and heavier. Rita was lying on the ground, her body was already wet,
and the blood under her body flowed farther and farther along the rain.
The agent didn't dare to touch her. Sitting next to Rita, he murmured to himself with guilt, "I'm sorry,
Rita. I shouldn't have agreed to go out to take photos. I'm sorry."
The people from the periodical office also felt a little guilty, and the driver who hit Rita had already
escaped in the chaos.
"Excuse me, everyone! Excuse me!"
Finally, the special bell of the ambulance rang in their ears. Several nurses got out of the ambulance
with a stretcher and said as they walked.
The agent immediately got up from the ground. His legs and feet were weak and he almost fell down.
Fortunately, someone supported him.
"Doctor, hurry up. She's dying."
The nurses didn't say anything. They put Rita on the stretcher and immediately carried her into the
ambulance.
In the car, the agent called Leon. He took out his phone and tried to calm himself down and called
Leon.
In the hotel, Leon was dealing with some documents sent by Victor that needed to be handled before
noon. He tapped on the keyboard with one hand and touched the phone beside him with the other.
When he saw that the contact was Rita's agent, he had a bad feeling.
Rita's agent seldom called him. He still remembered that the last time he called Rita...
Leon didn't dare to think about it anymore. He immediately picked up the phone, "Hello?"
"Le... Leon, something happened to Rita. "
"What? What happened? " Leon didn't want to believe. He just send Rita to work two hours ago.
"She had a car accident. Come to the central hospital here. I will tell you the details face to face."
"I'll be right there."
Leon didn't care how urgent the task was. He grabbed the car key and ran away.
He drove the car as fast as he could. As soon as he got out of the hotel and got on the expressway, he
had to slow down. It was rush hour now, and even if he was abroad, there was still a traffic jam.
Holding the steering wheel tightly, looking at the long line of cars in an orderly fashion, he couldn't help
cursing, "Shit!"
He parked the car beside a road, opened the door and ran out.
When Leon finally arrived at the hospital, half an hour had passed. He was sweating and panting.
Rita's agent saw Leon from a long distance and waved at him. Leon ran over, bent over and gasped for
breath. After a while, he asked in a hoarse voice, "How is Rita?"
"She is still in the operating room. Did you run here? Come and have a seat. " Seeing this, the agent
quickly stood up from the chair in the corridor and gave the seat to Leon.
"No, thanks." Leo shook his head. Although he was very tired, he didn't want to sit at all. He looked at
the red light of the operating room and said, "I'll stand and wait!"
The agent didn't insist. He could understand Leon's mood.
Leaning against the cold wall, Leon tried to calm himself down. He thought a lot on the way to the
hospital, thinking about his past with Rita, and his future with Rita, no matter what happened to Rita, He
would never leave her.
After a long time, Leon opened his mouth again. He looked at his agent who was walking back and
forth anxiously and asked, "What's going on?"
The agent took a look at Leon and said guiltily, "After Rita came this morning, the magazine office
asked us to go to the street to take this cover. When Rita was taking the last set of photos, she was hit
by a car which suddenly appeared."
