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
Charlotte was really starting to panic this time. "Ms. Clements, I suddenly need to use the restroom..."She spoke while quickly stepping out of the room.Daisy was confused. "Lottie! The bathroom is not over there!"However, as soon as she finished speaking, Charlotte had already run downstairs.Daisy stood there, feeling a bit confused.She was just fine a moment ago, but why did she say something and then run away?Does Charlotte hate her?Thinking of this, Daisy's mood immediately turned sour.Daisy's "yes" immediately pulled Charlotte out of the sugar-coated bullet.She has grown up like this, and actually has been confessed to by many people, but being confessed to by a girl, this is the first time she has encountered it!She had no objections to Daisy's sexual orientation, but as the person being liked, she felt a bit unsure.Charlotte ran while looking for Leandro, and now she deeply regretted leavi
Charlotte handed the phone back to the beautiful young lady, her face still flushed. "Thank you, beautiful sister.""My name was Carlee Hooper.""Okay, beautiful Carlee."Carlee looked at Charlotte and suddenly smiled, "Ms. Bernard is really adorable."Charlotte was taken aback. She was about to speak when Carlee was called away by a friend."Excuse me, Ms. Bernard, we'll talk next time.""It's okay, we'll talk next time."After Carlee left, Charlotte stood alone, feeling a bit bored, but Leandro told her to stay in place and not move.She also didn't dare to move, what if they went to different places and happened to miss each other? Wouldn't that be very awkward?Just then, a waiter came over with a tray of colorful drinks. She casually took a cup and took a sip.It was sour and sweet, quite tasty, with a hint of lemon and a hint of fruit fragrance.Charlotte took another sip, feeling a bit tipsy, and cou
With Daisy's words, Charlotte also started to remember a little.She had forgotten all about it, it was too long ago.After the competition that day, they could have left after the award ceremony, but the organizers suddenly asked them to record a performance video.She was the first one, so the performance video was recorded first.After finishing the recording, she was ready to leave. If she didn't leave soon, her mask would be taken off by someone.But it was quite a coincidence that day, Karissa said she wanted to film a short clip of herself, so she drove her motorboat to the other side to record the video.Just as she finished recording, she was about to leave when she heard someone shouting from the shore.It was already sunset at that time, and it was too far away for her to see clearly. However, following the direction that people on the shore were staring at, she did see a person standing on the reef.At this time, th
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt an itch on her cheek.Charlotte froze for a moment, her ears turning slightly red.But her gaze shifted to Daisy beside her, who seemed as if nothing had happened, whispering in her ear, "Five years ago, after you finished the Tolujamo competition, you came back and saved someone who got caught in the rising tide and couldn't make it back to shore. Don't you remember?"That night, Daisy really thought that her fate was there. She had never learned how to swim since she was a child, but she had a natural love for the sea.In my sophomore year, my friends and I went to Tolujamo for a trip. We heard that there was a jet ski competition, so out of curiosity, we all went to watch it.After the competition ended, it was the perfect time to watch the sunset. Daisy brought her DSLR camera and climbed onto the outermost rocks to capture the sunset.She was taking the photos seriously and didn't pay attention
Leandro watched as Charlotte walked away before he averted his gaze. He glanced briefly at Marco and then shifted his focus onto Elvis, saying, "Come with me."Elvis felt guilty under Leandro's gaze, "I didn't go, I was busy!"Marissa slapped Elvis on the palm and said, "Go quickly, Leandro wants to talk to you!""Mom!"Are you stupid or something? Does Leandro look like he has something to say to you?He might be in for a punch like this!Of course, Elvis didn't dare to say that.He also knew that his mother was just pretending to be cunning, but in reality, she was just a naive and innocent person."Go quickly!"Marissa urged again.Elvis gritted his teeth and followed Leandro as they walked out of the banquet hall and directly into the rooftop garden on the second floor."Do you have any complaints about me?"Where did Elvis dare to have any objections to Leandro, but he felt annoyed when he heard
Looking at Charlotte and Daisy in front of him, Marco's emotions were very complicated.On one hand, he didn't want to give Charlotte a good face, but on the other hand, he couldn't be cold in front of Daisy.Charlotte was quite clever, continuing the conversation after Daisy's words, if he were to leave abruptly, Daisy would definitely ask for an explanation.Marco looked for two seconds, but in the end, he couldn't cool down his face and kindly smiled at Daisy, saying, "You're thoughtful."This birthday was quite miserable.Leandro, who was standing next to Charlotte, finally spoke after hearing his response, "Dad."Marco glanced at Leandro and said, "You do remember that I am your father, don't you?"Marissa was afraid of the father and son arguing, so she quickly pulled on Marco's sleeve and said, "Marco, it's such a beautiful day, why are you saying these things?"Marissa said, her gaze falling on Daisy, shifting the topic
"Long time no see, Lottie!"Daisy ran over, holding her skirt, just like a gust of wind. She ran up to Charlotte and grabbed her.If she hadn't been holding a glass of champagne in her hand, it probably wouldn't have been just holding onto Charlotte so simply.Leandro glanced at Daisy with a hint of warning in his dark eyes.Daisy glared at him and intentionally held Charlotte even tighter, saying, "I have been abroad recently and don't have much time to meet you. I really, really miss you!"Charlotte heard what was said behind her and her face slightly flushed, but when she saw Daisy, she was still very happy and said, "Long time no see."Daisy indeed didn't contact her much over the past month.Last time she had a competition, she hurriedly rushed there, but the competition had already ended. Daisy insisted on giving her a bag as compensation.Charlotte refused, so she had to choose a regular bag. Before she returned to Aelme
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
