It's not easy to be a supermodel [Comprehensive British American American Entertainment]
Chapter 26 I Don't Wanna Die
Leti closed the webpage contentedly, and was considering whether she should also buy a laptop. It was so inconvenient that her NOKIA mobile phone could not access the Internet, and she had to have a computer to log in to Twitter.
"I don't need you to tell me what to do! Who do you think you are?!" Just as the laptop was closed, there was a sharp roar from the opposite room, "Out——Out!"
Letty walked out of the room holding the laptop and took a look, just in time to see Nicole coming out of the opposite room with an aggrieved face.
Letty returned the laptop to her, pointed to the door, and asked softly, "What's wrong with her?"
"Amanda and Bruce Wayne broke up." Nicole shrugged and sighed, "What's worse, after the breakup, she was canceled by the brand because she was out of shape, she Her agent was very angry, I just tried to reassure her that everything would be fine as long as she lost weight, and it turned out...you saw it too."
Letty raised her eyebrows, she was not surprised by this result.
Ever since Amanda made this rich boyfriend, she felt that she had become popular, gave up weight management, and only cared about eating, drinking and having fun every day. Her original size 0 body size has grown to even wear size 2 clothes. It is conceivable that she is fat how much.
Breaking up with Bruce Wayne is only a matter of time. It is said that none of his girlfriends can last more than three months. If Amanda thinks that she has really married into a wealthy family, it is really naive.
Originally, the brand that approached her to shoot commercials and endorsements was interested in her status as "Bruce Wayne's girlfriend". Now that she has lost this big backer, her figure has started to lose shape again, and it is only natural for her to be dismissed from her job.
In fashion, nothing stays the same.
"You can come and sleep with me." Letty didn't comment on this matter, but just smiled at Nicole, "Anyway, since Freya moved away, her bed has been vacant."
"Can you?" Nicole rolled her eyes happily, "Then I will..."
Before the words were finished, the door was opened, and Amanda came out with a face of resentment, her already bad face became even worse after seeing Letty.
During her downturn, Letty's popularity has soared, and now almost the entire fashion industry knows her, but Amanda has lost her job, and she has always looked down on Letty. Now such a big gap makes her feel Difficult to accept and become more sensitive.
"What are you looking at?" Amanda gritted her teeth, "Do you want to laugh at me too?"
Letty ignored her, turned around and was about to go back to the room. Nicole, who didn't dare to make a sound, followed her into the room silently.
"Hey!" Seeing that Nicole was going to leave with Letty, Amanda felt unbalanced in an instant, feeling like her things were being taken away one by one, "Don't think that you can get rid of it just because you are popular now." Show such a contemptuous face!"
"I'm not like you, I won't let the opportunity slip away." The black-haired girl gave her a cold look.
"What do you mean?!" Amanda's voice sharpened in vain, "Are you saying that I asked for all of this?!"
Angry Amanda raised her hand high, and was about to slap Letty in the face, but the brunette girl didn't even raise her eyebrows, and quickly raised her hand to block her slap, when she couldn't react With a heavy push on her shoulder, Amanda was pushed down on the sofa uncontrollably.
Nicole was taken aback. She looked from Letty to Amanda, not knowing what to do between them.
"People who look better than you work harder than you, so why are you complaining if you don't work hard?" Letty glanced at her condescendingly, with a mocking arc on the corner of his mouth, "We eat salad and fruit every day, and we have to count every meal The calories absorbed will not exceed the standard. Sometimes you don’t even dare to take a sip of water. You just eat burgers and drink Coke next to you. I go to the fitness room for two hours of exercise every day, run six kilometers, and do a few sets of weight training. You sweat more than you drink Coke, how about you? Sitting on the sofa watching TV dramas?"
"If you think that a job will come to your door just by sitting still, get out, this circle is not for you." She snapped, piercing her sharp eyes on Amanda, "The fashion industry has never been a place where you can Where you get something for nothing, if you want to climb it, you have to work twice or even more than others!"
Amanda was completely shocked by her words, she sat on the sofa blankly, Letty returned to her room without looking at her again, Nicole glanced at Amanda, her eyes hesitated, but finally followed Letty is gone.
……
I don’t know if it was Letty’s words that made Amanda realize that she needs to work hard. At breakfast the next day, she sat and ate a box of salad by herself, but she still put on a bad face.
Both Letty and Nicole ignored them, chatting and laughing as they gnawed on the fruit. It took a while for Letty to notice Amanda's frequent glances, but when she looked back, the latter pretended to be Nothing happened and continued eating salad.
After repeating this process five times, Letty finally couldn't hold back and asked her: "Is there anything you want to say to me?"
Amanda struggled for a while, staring at her toes, said with difficulty: "Your exercise menu, can you teach me how to do it?"
Letty blinked in surprise, and just when Amanda thought she was going to refuse, she heard her say: "Of course."
Amanda was also very surprised. I didn't expect Letty to agree so readily. You must know that she didn't treat her well before, and she said so much
Seeing that both of them were going to the gym, Nicole immediately raised her hand and said, "Me too!"
So Letty also gave them two monthly gym cards, and seriously stated that exercising is not a joke, and they must persist and not give up halfway.
Both Amanda and Nicole were full of fighting spirit and said no problem, Letty nodded and asked them to run for three kilometers to warm up first, and she also ran together, thinking about what kind of exercise menu should be made for beginners , However, when she had already run six kilometers without knowing it, she realized that the two beside her had withered and remained at more than two kilometers.
Nicole hung the arms of the treadmill panting heavily, and asked cautiously, "Well, why don't you come here and get the results today?"
Letty refused straight away: "No."
Nicole: "QAQ"
Of course, Letty didn't intend to put Nicole and Amanda to death drills, just let them do a little weight training and then let them go, while she continued to stay and finish today's workout.
Sweaty all over, Letty took a shower and left the gym, went to a large supermarket near Rockefeller Center to buy some ingredients to make dinner by herself.
Rockefeller Center is a city within a city consisting of [-] skyscrapers across Fifth Avenue to Seventh Avenue in Manhattan. It is the second city center in New York outside Wall Street.
One of the skyscrapers with dozens of floors is the headquarters of Stark Industries, which is a little shorter than the [-]th floor of the main building, but it will soon be gone, because the new headquarters in Los Angeles has been built, and it will be moved there soon, although That Tony guy has been slow to move.
Leti took another look, and saw a striking white Audi parked at the entrance of the building, and a fat man in a suit was standing next to the Audi, with a serious expression as if he was waiting for someone.
Letty recognized him. He was Tony's driver. Sure enough, a group of people came out at the main entrance. The brown-haired man surrounded by him in the center was Tony, and the others surrounded him were all middle-aged men. And the old man, who was blablabla kept talking in his ear, but seeing Tony's expression, it was obvious that he didn't listen to it all.
Letty didn't stay long, turned around and left, but when she passed a square, she stopped in her tracks because of the sound of sobbing.
A boy about eight or nine years old was sitting alone on the square. Letty hesitated for a moment, then walked over and asked, "Son, are you okay? Where are your parents?"
When the boy saw her approaching, he seemed to grab a life-saving straw, and burst into tears: "Mom...is gone..."
It turned out that he was separated from his parents. He cried more and more hard, and began to be a little out of breath. Letty kept comforting him: "What's your name? Do you remember your mother's phone number?"
But the boy couldn't answer, and kept crying. When the sound of panting became difficult to breathe, Letty's face changed, and he half-knelt down to look at him. His symptoms were very similar to asthma attacks, and asked: "Have you ever tried this before?" ?”
The boy didn't speak, just nodded.
"Then do you have any medicine with you?"
The boy shook his head, and he had to say several times intermittently before he could finish the sentence: "I, the medicine I usually take...is on my mother..."
Letty first unbuttoned his outer coat, and was about to make an emergency call for help, but no matter how fast the ambulance was, it would take at least ten to 15 minutes to come here...
Without thinking too much, she picked up the boy in a sitting posture, let him lean forward and lean on her shoulders, so that he could breathe in some fresh air, and then ran towards the white Audi.
"Mr. Stark! Mr. Stark!"
Tony turned his head and saw the brunette girl running towards him with panic on her face. Although she was walking briskly, her steps were steady. She was holding a child in her arms. His face looked terrible and he was panting all the time. Woo, Tony instantly realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Excuse me, please let me go!" Letty squeezed through the crowd, sweat soaked on her forehead, and said to him, "Go to the hospital, hurry up!"
"Ms. Mermaid, why do you always have unexpected accidents when you meet me?" Tony sighed, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all. He opened the car door to let her carry the boy in, and asked the driver Happy to close all the windows. Come down to let the air circulate.
Happy stepped on the accelerator, and the sports car roared away.
Tony glanced at the little white boy with blond hair, and he knew that he had no blood relationship with Letty. Letty also noticed his gaze and said, "He got separated from his mother."
The man looked away from the boy with a painful face, and said to Happy, "Drive faster."
Happy met the boss's gaze from the rear-view mirror and hesitated, "But?"
"Okay, let's drive, do you think I will care about those tickets?"
They shaved 10 minutes off the normal time to get to the hospital because Happy kept speeding, thank goodness they didn't get stuck in traffic.
Since Tony had contacted the people in the hospital in advance, when they arrived, medical staff came forward to pick up the boy.
The moment the heaviness in her arms disappeared, Letty let out a long sigh of relief.
She looked at the young chairman of Stark Industries: "Thank you again..."
"Excuse me, please let me go!"
The words that hadn’t been spoken were interrupted. Several medical staff pushed a bed and walked past them. Letty and Tony made way for her. She subconsciously glanced at the young woman wearing an oxygen mask on the hospital bed. .
Letty felt her heart beat in vain.
She looked around, and found that the surrounding white walls were getting higher and extending to the edge she couldn't touch, trapping her in it like a cage, the man's mouth was constantly opening and closing, but she seemed to suddenly lose her hearing can't hear
Tony noticed her pale face and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"I..." Letty opened her lips, and was about to say something, but the woman on the hospital bed evoked the memories that had been sealed deep in her heart. Scenes of thrilling scenes appeared in front of her eyes, shaking the high wall in her heart. The blow was shattered.
She was in pain like being torn apart. She wanted to call for help but couldn't make any sound. She could only watch helplessly as she was carried into the ambulance. In her blurred vision, she saw the bright operating lamp on her head. , chaotic footsteps and noises continued to be heard, and the passage of time seemed to be slowed down many times.
"Patient has no heartbeat!"
"Rescue immediately!"
"Turn the voltage to the highest..."
"It's already the highest!"
"咇——"
What kind of experience is near death?
It was as if the god of death had put a scythe around his neck, and there was no way to resist except fear.
The desire to survive is maximized at this moment, like a drowning person struggling desperately, trying to catch something, but in the end he can only be swallowed by endless waves.
After her rebirth, she never dared to look for traces of her previous life.
She has no family, and few friends. She is afraid that she will die alone, and her body will gradually decay in the desolation, and then be forgotten by the world, and all traces of her existence will be erased.
There is no more Lin Haiyi in the world.
In the increasingly rapid panting, she trembled her lips with difficulty, and weakly exhausted all her strength to form a complete sentence: "I...Idontfeel...Idontfeelsogood..."
The vain footsteps made her unable to stand, she slammed into the wall next to her, and slid down the wall feebly, her panic made her unable to control her tears, big tears rolled down from her eyes.
With the outbreak of fear, the sequelae of stopping the antidepressants also followed, and the anxiety exacerbated the outbreak of fear. They formed a huge black shadow, approaching her to the edge of the cliff little by little. .
"Are you okay? Hey, don't cry first, you know I didn't say anything about this..." Letty's sudden breakdown made the man start to feel at a loss, and it was not enough to wipe her tears, so he could only help her to sit down.
He met her eyes, which were full of helplessness and fear, which broke the heart just by looking at them.
heart attack?No, it shouldn't be, her pulse doesn't feel like it.asthma?No, there is only one possibility left, and that is——
Panic Disorder.
For a moment Letty really thought she was going to die.
The strong sense of death threat and the anxiety of the outbreak of drug addiction seemed to flood her, making her unable to breathe. Flashed through and dissipated in her mind, the familiar feeling of dying unreservedly cut out the most vulnerable side of her heart.
No... She doesn't want to die yet, she still has a lot of things to do, she finally got a second life, she has never seen the scenery standing at the top...
"I don't want to die...I don't want to die yet..." The black-haired girl moved her lips weakly and intermittently, her eyes began to lose sight, but her hands firmly grasped the man's sleeve, as if he was her only salvation, Doing so will keep it from being washed away by the tide.
The depths of her smoky gray eyes were already fragmented, tears blurred her cheeks, her trembling voice revealed a trace of collapse: "Tony, I don't want to die again..."
Tony was taken aback.
——Again?
He didn't have time to think about it, because the condition of the brunette girl was getting worse and worse, he regained his senses, took a deep breath, knelt down in front of her, shook her hand that was firmly grasping his sleeve, and tried to hold her The cold, bony hand warmed up.
Tony nodded to Happy, who immediately left to find someone.
Although he knew it was a panic attack, the broken eyes of the black-haired girl who was defeated made him suddenly feel scared, afraid that she would fall down in front of him.
Panic disorder is a psychological disease that does not cause sudden death, but makes the patient feel that he is facing the threat of death.
So all he can do is give her confidence.
"Hey, look into my eyes, look into my eyes," he said, warm palms wrapping her palms, eyelashes blocking some of the light but not stopping some starlight from falling into those beautiful big brown eyes In the middle, as clear and flawless as a sparkling lake, "You will be fine, I am here."
The man's voice was steady and powerful, which gradually calmed down her heartbeat.
"--I am always here."
The black-haired girl sat in a daze on the hospital bed, the second hand of the clock on the wall circled around and around, and the thin figure was still motionless like a sculpture.
Until the sound of footsteps brought her back to her thoughts, she looked up at the brown-haired man who came in.
"Your body has reported it." Tony's face was very serious, but his usually bright brown eyes were brewing some kind of storm at this moment, "Malnutrition, the brain's nervous system was slightly damaged, and the immune system was also damaged. —a bad cold is enough to keep you in bed for a week!"
Every time he said a word, his expression became gloomy.
"—Drugs? I didn't know that you don't care about your body so much?!"
Letty was extremely wronged, could it be that she could control this broken body?He didn't even know how much pain she had been enduring to get rid of drugs. She had to take various medicines every day, and with the pressure of public opinion before fashion week, it was good that she was not overwhelmed!
I don't know shit!Do you know her well!
The secret that has been buried all along is now known to all, and she blames herself while being annoyed.
The brunette's emotions were on the verge of collapse, but she still tried her best to suppress her, not wanting others to see her like this.
Letty was angry and had nowhere to vent, so she covered her head with the quilt, and shrank in the quilt as if angry, unwilling to come out.
Tony realized that what he said just now might have gone too far, but Letty had already made it clear that he didn't want to pay attention to him. He wanted to reach out and poke the bulging quilt bag on the bed, but when he stretched halfway, he paused in mid-air. Dare to go forward half a point.
After a while, a man's voice sounded in the silent room: "Sorry."
The person in the quilt didn't respond, and continued to pretend to be a turtle. He tried to resolve the stiff atmosphere with a relaxed tone: "Stop losing your temper, you will suffocate yourself to death before you are killed by drugs."
For a long time, Tony didn't get a response. He rubbed his forehead with a headache, but his mouth kept moving: "Hey, don't you plan to stay in it forever? Okay... I was wrong, okay? You What do you want to eat? I'll ask Happy to buy it."
There was another period of silence, when Tony thought that Letty really planned to ignore him all the time and was about to tear off her quilt, the worm-like silhouette under the quilt squirmed.
"Cheeseburger." She revealed a pair of eyes blinded by water vapor, and her voice was muffled, "I want to eat a cheeseburger."
"Cheeseburger? What's so delicious..." Tony muttered in a low voice, but he also called Happy to let him go out and buy it.
……
Tony was holding a hamburger with a big bite in his hand. The aroma filled the room and aroused people's appetite. While chewing, he said inarticulately: "Ohgod—what kind of treasure is this?"
Seeing him eating happily, Letty reminded him with twitching corners of his mouth: "If you still remember, this poor burger in your hand was originally mine."
Tony licked the gravy from his finger, looked at her and exaggerated: "Two burgers for one person? Come on, you're not Godzilla."
Letty: "... I just like it, okay?!"
She wanted to indulge herself on a rare occasion, but was robbed of half of the food by a billionaire who was yelling "what's a cheeseburger?" 15 minutes ago.
... He even bought the Burger King Group!
The richest man in New York perfectly interpreted what is meant by "I just don't want to lose face" and ate up her hamburger in a short while, Letty could only bite her own hamburger to vent.
Martin came to visit her occasionally, and she explained that she was just too tired to cause hypoglycemia. Martin didn't doubt it, but just let her have a good rest, without mentioning any work.
After both Martin and Tony left, Letty couldn't fall asleep, and kept her eyes open and looked at the ceiling all night.She just wanted to find someone to chat with her, but found that there was no suitable option at all.
I definitely can't tell Isabella, lest she worry, Freya is far away in Paris, and Nicole doesn't know her well...
Letty suddenly realizes that she has nothing.
Tony came to see her the next day and brought her a gadget.
"What is this?" Letty asked curiously, looking at the MP3-sized device in his hand.
The man's eyes were tired from a sleepless night, but they also shone with pride, like a big boy showing off a new toy: "This is a drug addiction suppressor, your brain has been formed under the influence of drugs. New balance mechanism, so it's hard when your brain isn't drugged, but there's a sonic frequency that-"
"Wait." Letty was confused by his string of esoteric words, and immediately stopped him, "Can you speak normal English? Or Spanish?"
Tony rolled his eyes back. "Yalose—anyway, when your addiction hits again, put it to your ear and press this button."
Letty didn't take it, she looked up at Tony, and asked softly, "Why?"
"What?"
Her eyes were flickering, and her voice was full of uncertainty: "Why do you help me?"
"Aren't you the one who told me that you don't want to die?" Tony asked back, but his eyes were looking out of the window. The branches outside were bare and the weather was gray. He remembered that he hadn't seen the sun for a long time.
Tony always thought he was omnipotent.
——It’s not really omnipotent, but he can indeed do most things. In his eyes, there is no problem that cannot be solved with money.
Material comforts, beauty, power...
However, when she had a panic attack just now, he couldn't do anything.What if she wasn't just having panic attacks, but something that could kill her?He suddenly realized that there were many things he couldn't do.
For example, in countless nights, he stayed alone in an empty mansion, looking at the emptiness of his single reflection on the glass.
If something bad happens to him and he can't stop it, he feels it's his fault.
Tony put away his thoughts and handed the device to her: "But it's not enough to help you quit completely, I'm still working on the improved version, let's just use this first."
Letty took it seriously, "Thank you, Mr..."
"Tony." The man corrected her.
The brunette smiled tiredly, but her eyes were bright: "Thank you, Tony."
"I don't need you to tell me what to do! Who do you think you are?!" Just as the laptop was closed, there was a sharp roar from the opposite room, "Out——Out!"
Letty walked out of the room holding the laptop and took a look, just in time to see Nicole coming out of the opposite room with an aggrieved face.
Letty returned the laptop to her, pointed to the door, and asked softly, "What's wrong with her?"
"Amanda and Bruce Wayne broke up." Nicole shrugged and sighed, "What's worse, after the breakup, she was canceled by the brand because she was out of shape, she Her agent was very angry, I just tried to reassure her that everything would be fine as long as she lost weight, and it turned out...you saw it too."
Letty raised her eyebrows, she was not surprised by this result.

In fashion, nothing stays the same.
"You can come and sleep with me." Letty didn't comment on this matter, but just smiled at Nicole, "Anyway, since Freya moved away, her bed has been vacant."
"Can you?" Nicole rolled her eyes happily, "Then I will..."
Before the words were finished, the door was opened, and Amanda came out with a face of resentment, her already bad face became even worse after seeing Letty.

Angry Amanda raised her hand high, and was about to slap Letty in the face, but the brunette girl didn't even raise her eyebrows, and quickly raised her hand to block her slap, when she couldn't react With a heavy push on her shoulder, Amanda was pushed down on the sofa uncontrollably.

She looked around, and found that the surrounding white walls were getting higher and extending to the edge she couldn't touch, trapping her in it like a cage, the man's mouth was constantly opening and closing, but she seemed to suddenly lose her hearing can't hear
Tony noticed her pale face and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"I..." Letty opened her lips, and was about to say something, but the woman on the hospital bed evoked the memories that had been sealed deep in her heart. Scenes of thrilling scenes appeared in front of her eyes, shaking the high wall in her heart. The blow was shattered.
She was in pain like being torn apart. She wanted to call for help but couldn't make any sound. She could only watch helplessly as she was carried into the ambulance. In her blurred vision, she saw the bright operating lamp on her head. , chaotic footsteps and noises continued to be heard, and the passage of time seemed to be slowed down many times.
"Patient has no heartbeat!"
"Rescue immediately!"
"Turn the voltage to the highest..."
"It's already the highest!"
"咇——"
What kind of experience is near death?
It was as if the god of death had put a scythe around his neck, and there was no way to resist except fear.
The desire to survive is maximized at this moment, like a drowning person struggling desperately, trying to catch something, but in the end he can only be swallowed by endless waves.
After her rebirth, she never dared to look for traces of her previous life.
She has no family, and few friends. She is afraid that she will die alone, and her body will gradually decay in the desolation, and then be forgotten by the world, and all traces of her existence will be erased.
There is no more Lin Haiyi in the world.
In the increasingly rapid panting, she trembled her lips with difficulty, and weakly exhausted all her strength to form a complete sentence: "I...Idontfeel...Idontfeelsogood..."
The vain footsteps made her unable to stand, she slammed into the wall next to her, and slid down the wall feebly, her panic made her unable to control her tears, big tears rolled down from her eyes.
With the outbreak of fear, the sequelae of stopping the antidepressants also followed, and the anxiety exacerbated the outbreak of fear. They formed a huge black shadow, approaching her to the edge of the cliff little by little. .
"Are you okay? Hey, don't cry first, you know I didn't say anything about this..." Letty's sudden breakdown made the man start to feel at a loss, and it was not enough to wipe her tears, so he could only help her to sit down.
He met her eyes, which were full of helplessness and fear, which broke the heart just by looking at them.
heart attack?No, it shouldn't be, her pulse doesn't feel like it.asthma?No, there is only one possibility left, and that is——
Panic Disorder.
For a moment Letty really thought she was going to die.
The strong sense of death threat and the anxiety of the outbreak of drug addiction seemed to flood her, making her unable to breathe. Flashed through and dissipated in her mind, the familiar feeling of dying unreservedly cut out the most vulnerable side of her heart.
No... She doesn't want to die yet, she still has a lot of things to do, she finally got a second life, she has never seen the scenery standing at the top...
"I don't want to die...I don't want to die yet..." The black-haired girl moved her lips weakly and intermittently, her eyes began to lose sight, but her hands firmly grasped the man's sleeve, as if he was her only salvation, Doing so will keep it from being washed away by the tide.
The depths of her smoky gray eyes were already fragmented, tears blurred her cheeks, her trembling voice revealed a trace of collapse: "Tony, I don't want to die again..."
Tony was taken aback.
——Again?
He didn't have time to think about it, because the condition of the brunette girl was getting worse and worse, he regained his senses, took a deep breath, knelt down in front of her, shook her hand that was firmly grasping his sleeve, and tried to hold her The cold, bony hand warmed up.
Tony nodded to Happy, who immediately left to find someone.
Although he knew it was a panic attack, the broken eyes of the black-haired girl who was defeated made him suddenly feel scared, afraid that she would fall down in front of him.
Panic disorder is a psychological disease that does not cause sudden death, but makes the patient feel that he is facing the threat of death.
So all he can do is give her confidence.
"Hey, look into my eyes, look into my eyes," he said, warm palms wrapping her palms, eyelashes blocking some of the light but not stopping some starlight from falling into those beautiful big brown eyes In the middle, as clear and flawless as a sparkling lake, "You will be fine, I am here."
The man's voice was steady and powerful, which gradually calmed down her heartbeat.
"--I am always here."
The black-haired girl sat in a daze on the hospital bed, the second hand of the clock on the wall circled around and around, and the thin figure was still motionless like a sculpture.
Until the sound of footsteps brought her back to her thoughts, she looked up at the brown-haired man who came in.
"Your body has reported it." Tony's face was very serious, but his usually bright brown eyes were brewing some kind of storm at this moment, "Malnutrition, the brain's nervous system was slightly damaged, and the immune system was also damaged. —a bad cold is enough to keep you in bed for a week!"
Every time he said a word, his expression became gloomy.
"—Drugs? I didn't know that you don't care about your body so much?!"
Letty was extremely wronged, could it be that she could control this broken body?He didn't even know how much pain she had been enduring to get rid of drugs. She had to take various medicines every day, and with the pressure of public opinion before fashion week, it was good that she was not overwhelmed!
I don't know shit!Do you know her well!
The secret that has been buried all along is now known to all, and she blames herself while being annoyed.
The brunette's emotions were on the verge of collapse, but she still tried her best to suppress her, not wanting others to see her like this.
Letty was angry and had nowhere to vent, so she covered her head with the quilt, and shrank in the quilt as if angry, unwilling to come out.
Tony realized that what he said just now might have gone too far, but Letty had already made it clear that he didn't want to pay attention to him. He wanted to reach out and poke the bulging quilt bag on the bed, but when he stretched halfway, he paused in mid-air. Dare to go forward half a point.
After a while, a man's voice sounded in the silent room: "Sorry."
The person in the quilt didn't respond, and continued to pretend to be a turtle. He tried to resolve the stiff atmosphere with a relaxed tone: "Stop losing your temper, you will suffocate yourself to death before you are killed by drugs."
For a long time, Tony didn't get a response. He rubbed his forehead with a headache, but his mouth kept moving: "Hey, don't you plan to stay in it forever? Okay... I was wrong, okay? You What do you want to eat? I'll ask Happy to buy it."
There was another period of silence, when Tony thought that Letty really planned to ignore him all the time and was about to tear off her quilt, the worm-like silhouette under the quilt squirmed.
"Cheeseburger." She revealed a pair of eyes blinded by water vapor, and her voice was muffled, "I want to eat a cheeseburger."
"Cheeseburger? What's so delicious..." Tony muttered in a low voice, but he also called Happy to let him go out and buy it.
……
Tony was holding a hamburger with a big bite in his hand. The aroma filled the room and aroused people's appetite. While chewing, he said inarticulately: "Ohgod—what kind of treasure is this?"
Seeing him eating happily, Letty reminded him with twitching corners of his mouth: "If you still remember, this poor burger in your hand was originally mine."
Tony licked the gravy from his finger, looked at her and exaggerated: "Two burgers for one person? Come on, you're not Godzilla."
Letty: "... I just like it, okay?!"
She wanted to indulge herself on a rare occasion, but was robbed of half of the food by a billionaire who was yelling "what's a cheeseburger?" 15 minutes ago.
... He even bought the Burger King Group!
The richest man in New York perfectly interpreted what is meant by "I just don't want to lose face" and ate up her hamburger in a short while, Letty could only bite her own hamburger to vent.
Martin came to visit her occasionally, and she explained that she was just too tired to cause hypoglycemia. Martin didn't doubt it, but just let her have a good rest, without mentioning any work.
After both Martin and Tony left, Letty couldn't fall asleep, and kept her eyes open and looked at the ceiling all night.She just wanted to find someone to chat with her, but found that there was no suitable option at all.
I definitely can't tell Isabella, lest she worry, Freya is far away in Paris, and Nicole doesn't know her well...
Letty suddenly realizes that she has nothing.
Tony came to see her the next day and brought her a gadget.
"What is this?" Letty asked curiously, looking at the MP3-sized device in his hand.
The man's eyes were tired from a sleepless night, but they also shone with pride, like a big boy showing off a new toy: "This is a drug addiction suppressor, your brain has been formed under the influence of drugs. New balance mechanism, so it's hard when your brain isn't drugged, but there's a sonic frequency that-"
"Wait." Letty was confused by his string of esoteric words, and immediately stopped him, "Can you speak normal English? Or Spanish?"
Tony rolled his eyes back. "Yalose—anyway, when your addiction hits again, put it to your ear and press this button."
Letty didn't take it, she looked up at Tony, and asked softly, "Why?"
"What?"
Her eyes were flickering, and her voice was full of uncertainty: "Why do you help me?"
"Aren't you the one who told me that you don't want to die?" Tony asked back, but his eyes were looking out of the window. The branches outside were bare and the weather was gray. He remembered that he hadn't seen the sun for a long time.
Tony always thought he was omnipotent.
——It’s not really omnipotent, but he can indeed do most things. In his eyes, there is no problem that cannot be solved with money.
Material comforts, beauty, power...
However, when she had a panic attack just now, he couldn't do anything.What if she wasn't just having panic attacks, but something that could kill her?He suddenly realized that there were many things he couldn't do.
For example, in countless nights, he stayed alone in an empty mansion, looking at the emptiness of his single reflection on the glass.
If something bad happens to him and he can't stop it, he feels it's his fault.
Tony put away his thoughts and handed the device to her: "But it's not enough to help you quit completely, I'm still working on the improved version, let's just use this first."
Letty took it seriously, "Thank you, Mr..."
"Tony." The man corrected her.
The brunette smiled tiredly, but her eyes were bright: "Thank you, Tony."
