The morning sun shone in through the French windows. On the round bed in the hotel, the girl was curled up like a pitiful kitten, sleeping uncomfortably.

Leo stood by the bedside. He, who had already taken a bath and put on all his clothes, staring at the girl who slept soundly on the bed.

A cellphone's ringtone broke the early morning's silence, Mary instinctively opened her eyes and sat up. In the next second, she began to move in the direction of the ringtone. "Hello?" Mary whispered.

"Alright, I'll be there right away!" When Mary heard the voice of the assistant, she finally realized that she had two scenes set at nine o'clock. She quickly got up and turned around, and met the man's deep and gloomy eyes.

"Ah..." Mary was astonished. It was obvious that she had completely forgotten about Leo.

When Leo saw her reaction, his handsome face sunk and the sadness on his face deepened. Last night, the two of them fought until midnight. When she woke up, she had an unrecognizable expression on her face.

When Mary saw his angry expression, she knew that she had overreacted: "sorry, honey, I've been too tired from filming recently, and my mind is in a blank. I forgot that I went out with you last night, what time is it now? she tugged her dishevelled long hair and was about to get off the bed.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, she was pushed back onto the bed by the man's hands.

Mary did not expect him to have such an action, causing her beautiful face to turn pale.

"Dear, in your world, am I not as important as your job?" Leo was jealous, and what he was jealous of was not the man's, but Mary's hard work.

Mary's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, then she shook her head: "Of course not, there's no way to compare! You're you and work is work."

"No, not unless you promise me that I'm more important than your job!" Leo didn't know why, but at this moment, he felt that he had become so childish, so unreasonable.

Mary was truly befuddled by him, after that, as if she had given in, she nodded her head: "Alright, you are definitely more important than my work!"

"Since I'm more important, let's take a leave of absence today and stay with me!" Leo obviously hadn't had enough time with her yet, but even if he had had enough last night, at this moment, an empty feeling arose from the bottom of his heart. He felt that only by being with her, would he feel safe.

"No, I really have to go back to work. Leo, what's wrong with you today? Why are you acting like a child? " Mary also felt that something was wrong with Leo and was a little surprised.

Leo also didn't want to become a stubborn person, but he was in a very bad mood. He felt that if she left this door, who knows the day thet meet again.

"Honey, I want to take you out today. I know there is a beautiful town around the city. Can we go for a walk?" Leo softened his voice. There was no longer the overbearing tone from before, there was only pleading and anticipation.

She had already accepted the deep affection in Leo's eyes, but she was currently afraid that he would look at her with such a gaze. Because she was afraid that she would sink into it and drown in it. "I'm afraid that I won't. Let's go there next time!" Mary struggled free from his trap, quickly got off the bed, bent down in a panic, and picked up the clothes on the floor one by one, and ran into the bathroom. Leo looked at her snow-white back, and the light in his eyes faintly contracted. His large hands clenched into fists, and then trembled as he released them. It seemed like she was hiding something from him, and it was also related to their feelings.

Is it his mother?

Leo understood Mary, she seemed to be carefree, and would sometimes give people the feeling that she wasn't afraid of the heavens or the earth, and could even afford to love him, but, once he met a more real situation, she would become timid. The first thing she did was to take into consideration the feelings of others, and place his feelings in the most insignificant of positions.

He could not think of a second person besides his mother, who could make her do this.

If it was an outsider who came to break up or stop them from falling in love, Mary would definitely stand on his side.

But now, she felt that she was an outsider. He and his mother were like a family.

"Fool!" Leo stared at the door of the bathroom and cursed under his breath, but his heart was in pain.

Mary was hiding in the bathroom. Her movements just now were extremely slow, to the point of being stiff. After putting on her clothes, she stood in front of the mirror. The girl in the mirror with disheveled hair and a pale complexion didn't look like her at all.

"Mary, you should learn to grow up, you should know which choice is the most suitable. Your mother cannot stand the ridicule of others, you too!" Mary said these words to herself in her heart, and then, she took a deep breath and began to clean herself.

When she came out, she looked like a normal person again, her eyes gleaming.

"I gotta go!" Mary took herown bag, and without looking at the man sitting on the bed, she opened the door and rushed out.

Leo was stiff in a moment, as if he was trying to sell, and Mary was his guest.

The man's lips curled up into a self-mocking smile. Since when did he, Leo, feel such a strange sensation? He did not force Mary to stay, because he knew, she was not the only one in pain, the little girl, would have suffered more than him.

However, her cheerful nature made her unwilling to cry for outsiders to see. However, she must have hidden herself and cried.

Mary stood in the elevator and looked at the corridor. She did not chase out anymore, and did not know if she was feeling relaxed or disappointed.

But, like this, it might be best not to pester him.

Leo stood in front of the french window as he watched Mary hurriedly run towards the street. A black car came over and stopped beside her. His assistant anxiously got out of the car and opened the car door for her.

Leo saw all of this clearly. Maybe he could console himself, Mary was truly very busy, she was young, but she was professional and devoted in her acting. It was just that yesterday, when he saw her acting out a kiss with another man, his heart still felt as if it had been viciously pierced. He knew that the next second, both of them were at the wrong place, but he still felt uncomfortable.
