Elizabeth saw Charlotte's post and reposted it at once. She also commented, "I've been Charlotte's friend for two decades. I know how hard she tried to tolerate them. If Charlotte hadn't been so kind and low-key, I would have exposed what Lydia had done! Lydia is innocent? Would an innocent woman call Charlotte to show off at midnight? Would an innocent woman be in trouble or danger at crucial moments? Would an innocent woman suddenly interrupt their meal?"Charlotte provided much information in her post. She didn't exaggerate about her chats with Marcus with the screenshots shown clearly.During the two years when she dated Marcus, Lydia's name came out on all important days. Everyone could tell Lydia was purposeful.Elizabeth seemed to not have said much. But what she said was worth digging.Such shocking news broke the peace in the early morning. People made comments on the way to work."A twist! Tsk, I knew Ms. Wagner is no pushover! How could they blame Ms. Bernard? Come on! It w
After posting, Charlotte read the comments and enjoyed the breakfast.She felt happy to see those bad comments about Lydia.Suddenly, she understood why Lydia liked to make a fuss online.Although those people were strangers, it was pleasant to know some people scolded someone whom she hated.She regretted not having responded online before.Charlotte's response trended within half an hour.Another topic "reasonable escape from the wedding" was right behind "Charlotte's response", making it easy for people to understand the whole story.Meanwhile, Marcus got a call from Terry and heard of the news."Suppress the news!"Terry could feel his anger. But 10 minutes later, Marcus got another call from Terry.Terry said carefully on the phone, "Mr. Gallagher, I can't make it..."Marcus's face darkened. He took his coat directly and walked to the garage. "What do you mean?""I was told the news wouldn't be suppressed."Even the Gallagher family couldn't make it. Apparently, someone was behin
Charlotte finished breakfast and planned to practice playing the piano. When she was about to leave her room, she got messages from Elizabeth, "Damn! How dare she deny it?"Elizabeth sounded mad in the voice message. Charlotte raised her brow. "I'll check it."Charlotte pushed the wheelchair back and updated the page.Soon, she saw Lydia's response.Lydia posted, "Sorry!"I didn't realize my silly behaviors made you misunderstand us! Marcus and I have never gone across the line. But I feel really sorry that I have done so many things that misled you. I am sorry that I suddenly showed up at the meal between your families. I didn't think much. I just didn't want your relationship to be ruined by me. I offered to kneel and plead. Charlotte never asked me to do so! I am so sorry for my mistakes!"I'll apologize to Charlotte in person. Please don't spread the news and hurt Marcus and Charlotte!"I'll try my best to hold the video releaser responsible!""Finally, about what @Llliz had said,
Charlotte's response was direct and sharp. As soon as the recording was released, Lydia's mask was immediately torn off. Even those who had some sympathy for her dared not speak up anymore after hearing the recording."Ms. Bernard is amazing! Ms. Wagner deserves it.""It's such a refreshing start to the day! Thank you for setting the standard for entertainment industry scandals!""Oh... the truth is revealed so fast! Does Ms. Wagner have anything else to say now?""No way. Is there anyone who hasn't seen through Ms. Wagner's true face? She's a shameless but stupid woman. Even without this recording, her ugly side will be exposed one day, for she likes to be the other woman. Ms. Bernard was probably just too blinded by her love for her ex-boyfriend. But as soon as they broke up, her thinking became clear!"***Charlotte knew that this time, Lydia's reputation was completely ruined. Charlotte didn't believe that Lydia could come up with any more tricks!Elizabeth was so happy even thoug
The online heat didn't really die down until the afternoon. People in the circle all knew that Marcus had given up on Charlotte, his childhood sweetheart of twelve years, for Lydia, a scheming girl.Many people talked behind them and said that Marcus must be blind. Even the wealthy heiress Sylvia Ramsey, who never had a good impression of Charlotte, posted a cryptic message on her social media, showing her support for Charlotte.Elizabeth saw Sylvia's post and couldn't help but feel moved. She screenshotted it and sent it to Charlotte, saying, "Look, Lottie. Even Sylvia feels sorry for you."Sylvia and Charlotte never got along since they were young. Sylvia framed and set up Charlotte many times while they were in school. Like sworn enemies, they did not even bother to maintain false friendships.Elizabeth thought Sylvia was heartless, like a cold-blooded snake.Charlotte had just finished practicing the piano when she saw Elizabeth's screenshot. She signed.Even Sylvia thought it was
For the first time, Marcus felt a little annoyed with Lydia. He didn't want to talk to her, so he pretended that he didn't see her. To his surprise, Lydia stood directly in front of his car."Squeak..."The harsh brake sound caught the attention of everyone around. They all turned to look at the black Mercedes.Marcus looked at Lydia, who was blocking his car, and a kind of anger he had never felt before surged within him.He opened the car door and got off. "Do you want to die?"Lydia looked up, tears streaming down her face. With red eyes, she appeared pitiful."I'm sorry, Marcus. I didn't mean it."In the past, Marcus would have softened his heart seeing her like this, but thinking about what happened online, he felt complicated.Marcus wondered, "Has Lydia changed, or have I misjudged her from the beginning? Is she always like this?"Marcus gazed at Lydia with complicated eyes, and his tone carried a rare touch of impatience. "You said you didn't mean it. Then what about the recor
After living with his daughter for so many years, Greyson couldn't bear to let her go.Charlotte was stunned, and her fair ears slowly turned red when she thought about this. "Everyone knows about my marriage to him. It doesn't seem proper if I don't move there."After all, they had just made a public display of affection. If they lived separately, it would be embarrassing when others found out. Although Charlotte's marriage with Leandro was fake, it was a secret only between them.Leandro asked Charlotte to move there, so there must be a reason.Leandro had done Leandro such a big favor, so it was only right for her to repay him.But Greyson didn't think it was a problem. "Although you have registered your marriage, you haven't had a wedding ceremony yet. It doesn't matter if you don't live together. Others can't say anything."Just as Charlotte was about to say something, Marcus's voice came from downstairs. "Lottie, come down and talk to me. Lottie!"It was late at night, but Marcu
Charlotte asked the maid to carry the wheelchair downstairs. Then she held onto the handrail and jumped down one step at a time.Her legs were almost healed, but the doctor advised her to move less for a faster recovery.Charlotte reached the first floor and got back into the wheelchair. Greyson pushed her out of the villa.Finally, at the sight of Charlotte, Marcus stopped calling out.He had been shouting downstairs for almost ten minutes, and his throat was a little sore. So, his voice was hoarse when he spoke. "Lottie..."Marcus tried to reach out and hug Charlotte. Ever since the wedding, he hadn't touched her again.When they were together before, Marcus didn't like that lovey-dovey way of dating. During the two years they were together, they rarely kissed, and the occasional hug was only because they hadn't seen each other for a long time.Back then, Marcus thought it was fine, but now that their relationship was on the rocks, Marcus realized how extravagant a hug could be.But
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
