"Are you threatening me?"
Marco had lived for most of his life, and it was the first time he had encountered someone daring enough to threaten him!
Charlotte felt innocent. "How did I threaten you? Isn't trust the most important thing between spouses? Leandro will definitely know about you coming to see me today."
"He would definitely ask me what you said today if he found out, so of course I would tell him the truth, right?"
Charlotte paused for a moment and said, "Or should I say, do you always speak in a secretive manner with your wife?"
This almost made Marco furious, even his assistant Rene Snyder on the side wanted to speak up and reprimand Charlotte.
At this moment, however, there came a noise from the entrance hall.
Several people in the living room instinctively looked towards the entrance, where Leandro, dressed in a black suit, appeared with a serious expression on his face.
Upon seeing Leandro, Charlotte instinctive
After Marco left, the atmosphere inside the villa remained strange. Even Joyce, with tact, hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to come out to inquire about lunch matters.Charlotte glanced at Leandro, who had been sitting on the sofa for quite some time, and tentatively asked, "Are you not busy today?"Upon hearing her words, Leandro slowly opened his eyes and said, "Are you busy?"In fact, he paused the meeting halfway and rushed back."I was not busy."The two people sat here in an awkward manner.Seeing him raise his hand to rub his temples, Charlotte suddenly thought of something. "Do you have a headache?"Leandro looked up at her and said, "Hmm.""Shall I give you a massage then?"Sitting idle is just sitting idle, it's better to find something to do."Thank you."Charlotte got up and walked over to the sofa behind him, raising her hand to give him a massage.The atmosphere had improved a lot, an
Daisy really made Leandro record it. After finishing, she excitedly took out the invitation and placed it on the table, saying, "Mrs. Romero, I really have no ill intentions towards you! Really!"Charlotte wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but she felt that Daisy's gaze at that moment was a little off.Would it really not be like Elizabeth said?Was Daisy's crush actually her?While I was daydreaming, Daisy had already turned around and left.Charlotte watched her back and wanted to say that she actually didn't want to go, but the other person had already walked out of the hallway and the figure was no longer visible.Daisy ran out of the villa, and before leaving the gate, she thoughtfully helped to close the door.Although it was broad daylight, the front door was wide open, which made it somewhat unsafe.It wouldn't be good if a stranger broke in and scared Charlotte!Distracted by Daisy's interruption, Charlotte had
Leandro ultimately did not throw away the invitation card. He did not stop Charlotte from attending Daisy's birthday party, but the condition was that he would accompany her that evening.Charlotte had no objections to this, after all, Daisy's attitude towards her did make her a little worried.Well, there's nothing I can do about it. That's just how it is when you're so good-looking.And Daisy?Worried that Charlotte might not show up that day, I specifically arranged for a courier in the morning to remind Charlotte to remember to attend her birthday party in the evening.Charlotte opened the door early in the morning and listened to the runner's words, "..."It's outrageous!Charlotte had just closed the door when she saw the man, who was already dressed and ready to go to work, walking out with a briefcase."Who?"Upon hearing his voice, Charlotte averted her gaze from those long legs and said, "He's a runner."
Melvin followed closely behind Leandro, not daring to make a sound, afraid of being affected.Leandro suddenly stopped and called out Melvin's name.Melvin was stunned, holding the documents and approaching, "Mr. Romero?""Daisy, it's your birthday tonight. Prepare a gift and place it on my desk two hours later."Melvin was prepared to be scolded, but he was surprised when Leandro spoke and asked him to prepare Daisy's birthday gift.For a moment, he was a bit slow to react and asked a foolish question, "Mr. Romero, should we let the lady know about this matter?"I regretted asking Melvin.Don't even mention that Leandro would never do such morally corrupt things. Even if Leandro really did it, as his secretary, I should turn a blind eye to it!Leandro heard his words and stared straight at him with his dark eyes, saying, "What do you think, Melvin?"Melvin was completely dumbfounded. How was he supposed to answer such a
Leandro seemed to realize that he had done something wrong. "This is... fake eyelashes?"He furrowed his brow, as if his cognition had been shaken.Charlotte awkwardly pinched off the fake eyelashes and said, "No, it's dirty stuff! Mr. Romero, I'm going in to change clothes! Wait for me for five minutes, oh no, ten minutes!"Charlotte finished speaking in one breath and then turned around to close the door.She lowered her head and looked at the false eyelashes pinched between her fingertips, her face becoming even redder.She didn't want to wear false eyelashes anymore in the future!After such an embarrassing incident, Charlotte didn't have the mood to bother herself anymore.Anyway, it wasn't a big party, so she just needed to put on some makeup.After finishing her makeup, she changed into the small dress she had already picked out, and then chose a pair of pearl earrings to wear. Finally, she checked her appearance one mor
Leandro pulled Charlotte closer to him, avoiding Daisy's embrace.Charlotte didn't expect Daisy to be so enthusiastic. She wanted to hug people as soon as they met.Are the daughters of wealthy families so enthusiastic now?Obviously, it was not.Well, Ms. Clements was quite disgusted with Leandro next to her.Charlotte, however, was not very happy. She had previously mentioned that something was not right with Daisy, but it was just talk. Now, she actually had some doubts about whether Daisy had ulterior motives towards her.Leandro had a cold face and said, "I came with my wife."Charlotte heard what he said and quickly handed over the gift in her hand, easing the slightly awkward atmosphere at the moment. "Ms. Clements, happy birthday. I don't know what you like, so this is just a random gift I prepared."You see, I was so casual, so you can be a little casual too, Ms. Clements.However, things didn't go as planned. W
Leandro's dark eyes sank for a moment when he heard "Lottie". "Are you saying that even if she really liked you, you wouldn't mind?""Respect others' sexual orientations."Anyway, she didn't engage in same-sex relationships."What about me?"Leandro burst into laughter, looking at the woman in front of him who had just contradicted herself, and said, "What am I?"Charlotte blinked her eyes and instinctively replied, "my honey!"Wasn't this thing well-known?"Oh, so Ms. Bernard also knew that I was your honey.""?"Was it her illusion?Why did she feel that Leandro's words had a slightly resentful tone?Charlotte thought about how she had walked in just now, seemingly only focused on chatting with Daisy, and not paying much attention to Leandro beside her.Thinking of this, she suddenly felt guilty and quickly moved to Leandro's side, tiptoeing slightly and whispered in his ear with a voice that only
Charlotte was led by Leandro to the dining area, receiving many glances along the way.There were those who were envious, those who were amazed, those who were puzzled, those who were jealous, and those who were disdainful.Charlotte straightened her back, tightly grasped the man's hand, and passed by them without looking away.Even if it was fake, Mrs. Romero, anyway, no one would know!Leandro noticed her subtle movements, his thin lips slightly curved, holding onto her even tighter.Silly rabbit.The buffet at Daisy's birthday party was quite abundant. There were both traditional and foreign cuisines. Charlotte was initially worried about going home hungry, but she didn't expect to be repeatedly fed by Leandro. She was starting to worry if her stomach would be suspected by others."Are you full?"The man didn't know where to find the food, but it looked delicious.But I couldn't eat anymore, Charlotte forced herself t
Watching her guilty look, Leandro chuckled lightly and reached out to touch her, reassuringly saying, "Don't worry, if he kicks you out, I'll walk with you."He said, pausing for a moment, "Moreover, he probably won't ask you to leave tonight."Charlotte heard what he said and thought he was just comforting himself. "But what if he really kicks me out? If you go with me, it would be so embarrassing with all the guests watching, right?"Anyway, today was Marco's sixtieth birthday.Most of the guests tonight were influential figures, and if Leandro angrily left with her...Hmm, that scene was too outrageous, she couldn't even imagine it."It wasn't us who was embarrassing."He laughed, speaking in a casual and indifferent manner, as if he didn't care about Marco at all.Charlotte was taken aback: "Okay."She still believed in Leandro.As they were chatting, the car had already driven into the hotel's entrance.
Charlotte was "dismissed" by Greyson when it wasn't mealtime this time, so she had to leave after sending him to the ward.The hospital parking lot was a bit confusing, and Charlotte was worried that she wouldn't be able to find her way and was afraid to enter through the exit of the inpatient department.She had no choice but to walk along the same path she had come from, heading towards the outpatient department, and entering through the exit of the parking lot over there.It was quite a coincidence.When I came, I met Adan and Paola, they were leaving at that moment, and then I ran into them again.Paola, at this time, had clearly cried and was following behind Adan with a resentful expression on her face.Charlotte didn't want to provoke them, so she took a quick glance and averted her gaze. Subconsciously, she slowed down her pace, intending to wait for them to leave before continuing to walk to the parking lot.I didn't want Pao
Charlotte had no idea that she had just greeted Adan, and Paola and Adan, the two siblings, immediately started arguing.She had no intention of getting to know either of these two people on a deeper level, after all, one was of the opposite sex and the other was a meddlesome character.After walking a distance from the outpatient department, Charlotte finally found the building where Greyson was admitted.At that time, the elevators were crowded with people. She waited for two elevators and decided to take the stairs to the fifth floor.Just as Charlotte stepped out of the elevator and turned into the corridor, she saw Orion standing outside the ward door.Charlotte was somewhat surprised and walked quickly over, saying, "Orion, why are you standing here?"When Orion saw Charlotte, he looked up at her, hesitating to speak.Seeing Orion's reaction, Charlotte immediately realized that something was wrong.She glanced into the wa
Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief only after receiving Elizabeth's message. If she didn't reply soon, Charlotte planned to drive over and check the situation.She lowered her head and looked at the message Elizabeth replied in Line, raising her eyebrows slightly.Strange.When did Elizabeth become so quiet?Charlotte felt something was off, but couldn't figure out what was wrong at that moment.She put away her phone and decided to go to the hospital to see Greyson.The hospital was crowded on Friday, and Charlotte had a hard time finding a parking space.Charlotte was not very familiar with the parking lot of this hospital, so she had to go around in circles before finding the exit.I went out but found that it was not the exit of the inpatient department, but the exit of the outpatient department.She had just confirmed the direction of the hospital ward when she turned around and saw a familiar face.Adan loo
Aidan looked at her and said, "You speak.""This matter, you know and I know, did it happen?"Aidan was choked for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone.""That's good, you do as you please, I have to go to the company."Her colleagues were all asking her on Line if she was planning to quit and not work anymore. Compared to the fact that she slept with Aidan last night, Elizabeth felt that keeping her job was a bit more important!"Are you in a hurry to go to the company? I can give you a ride."Elizabeth subconsciously wanted to shake her head, she really didn't want to have any more contact with Aidan.After all, what happened last night was quite outrageous.But as the words were about to come out, she changed her mind and said, "Well, thank you for your trouble, but my boss thought I quit! I have to hurry to the company and explain!""Your boss wouldn't give you a hard time about what happened last nig
The events of last night are replaying in my mind like a movie.Aidan sat on the edge of the bed, not knowing how to solve the matter for a moment.If it was another woman, we would just sleep together and spend some money to solve the problem.But this person was not just anyone, it was Elizabeth.Not to mention that Elizabeth herself is not an ordinary woman, just her relationship with Charlotte, she took care of her last night and put her to bed. It's difficult to end it without getting married.Although the Duncan family always had their older brother to rely on, as the youngest son, he didn't have much pressure.But how could Aidan not know that in such a family, it was not enough for him to marry someone he didn't like in the future.He was not Leandro, but he said he would marry.While Aidan had a headache, Elizabeth knocked on the door again and said, "Wash your face, let's talk."When she just woke up, she was n
In the darkness, both of them did not speak anymore, only the sound of their breaths mingled together.I don't know how long had passed, but Charlotte licked her lips and felt a bit thirsty.I wanted to drink water.She thought so and couldn't help but move a little.Leandro grunted, "Baby, I couldn't bear it either."If you keep messing around, I really can't help it anymore.Charlotte's hard-won composure suddenly went up in flames, "No, I was thirsty."She really didn't mean it.Leandro lightly tapped her on the back, indicating for her to get off him.Charlotte didn't react at first, until she heard him say, "I'll pour you some water." Only then did she understand his meaning and quickly flipped off him.Leandro sat up from the bed, turned on the night light, and then picked up the nearby water glass. He went downstairs to pour water for her.The room was illuminated by a night light. Charlotte sat up i
"Did you go to sleep?"Leandro looked at her round, bright lychee eyes and smiled.Charlotte's ears turned slightly red, and she nodded, "Mmm, mmm."Actually, she was not tired.Leandro raised his hand and turned off the night light.The entire room instantly plunged into darkness, and Charlotte felt the woody scent at the tip of her nose becoming even more distinct.In the darkness, Charlotte swallowed nervously.Last night, the intimate scenes of our skin touching suddenly appeared in my mind, and Charlotte suddenly felt hot.She moved slightly, wanting to brush off the thin blanket from her body.The result was that the blanket was not rubbed off, but accidentally rubbed against Leandro's thigh.Both of them were startled.Leandro struggled to swallow and said, "Lottie, aren't you sleepy?"Charlotte's head was buzzing: "I... feel a bit hot."She just wanted to rub off the blanket from her b
Leandro had finished taking a shower and came out, but Charlotte was still waiting for Elizabeth to reply.She had no choice but to put down her phone and ask the person directly, "Leandro."Leandro turned his head and glanced at her when he heard her calling him, and softly asked, "Hmm?""So... your father's birthday, is it just this week?""Well, on Friday."Charlotte pursed her lips and blinked at him, "So, will you go then?""It depended on the situation.""What's the matter?"He wiped his hair, and his short hair was wiped into a mess, adding a touch of youth to his face.Charlotte looked on, her heart inexplicably moved.But she quickly suppressed her wandering thoughts and looked up at him, waiting for his response.He laughed and said, "Mrs. Romero's situation.""Me?" Charlotte was somewhat surprised, raising her hand and pointing at herself. "What's the matter with me?"How did she no
