The man's Adam's apple bobbed, and he reached out to lift her chin. "Apologize for what?"
"I made you miss the plane."
Although it was not intentional.
"If I can make it, I'll leave now. You stay here and wait for the doctor to come, okay?"
"Okay."
She didn't dare to say anything anymore. If she said one more word, Leandro's plane would really be missed.
Leandro gently brushed his thumb over the swollen knee, and after two seconds, he withdrew his hand.
Charlotte pursed her lips and said, "I really won't move, you should hurry and catch your flight."
"Um, give me a call if you have something."
Leandro stood up, gave her one last glance, and then turned around to leave.
At that moment, Joyce happened to come over to prepare breakfast.
Seeing the scion, Joyce instinctively stood aside, wanting to wait for Leandro to pass before entering the villa.
There have been situations like this before, and usuall
Leandro was right, the family doctor did indeed come quickly. Joyce's pasta had just finished cooking, and Charlotte hadn't even had a chance to go and eat when the doctor arrived.Joyce heard the doorbell and, afraid that Charlotte might move, she turned off the stove and rushed to open the door, saying, "Madam, I'll go and open the door, please don't move."Charlotte, who had no intention of moving at all, remained silent.Soon, Joyce led the doctor in.Hello, Mrs. Romero. My name is Victor Wade."Hello.""Mr. Romero told me that you bumped your left knee. Can you show me the wound?"Charlotte frowned and once again rolled up her pant legs.Just now, the knee that was all purple has become even more bluish at this moment, and it looks even scarier.Victor put on his gloves and said, "Mrs. Romero, please straighten your leg."Charlotte straightened her legs as instructed.After a thorough examination, it w
The next second, Charlotte saw an excessive person handing her a box of candy. "A business trip gift."Charlotte looked at the box of candy and said, "Thank you."I'm sorry, she shouldn't have made sarcastic comments just now!"Rest early, so you can recover faster."Originally, Charlotte wanted to share her candy. "...Okay."The man looked at her lowered eyes and loosened the button of his collar, saying, "I will escort you back to your room.""Ah, no--"Before she could finish speaking, Charlotte was lifted up in a familiar princess hug by the other person.The refreshing scent of wood instantly came closer, and she instinctively tightened her grip around his neck.Actually... it was quite good to have a leg injury!Realizing what she was thinking, Charlotte quickly pinched herself!How could she have such bitchy thoughts?Stop these terrible thoughts right now!Luckily, Leandro quickly arri
When Leandro was on a business trip, Charlotte would count on her fingers every day to figure out when he would come back.Now, everything is fine. The person has returned, and she is once again twisting her fingers, trying hard to restrain her little thoughts.Fortunately, Dangelo's concert was approaching, and Charlotte, being a dedicated freelance pianist, had also put aside her romantic thoughts.The concert will start at 8 o'clock tomorrow night, and Charlotte had to go for a rehearsal today.In the morning, she rarely went out with Leandro. As they reached the door, Charlotte suddenly remembered about the concert tomorrow night.Yesterday, Dangelo sent someone to give her five concert tickets. Charlotte gave two of them to Elizabeth, leaving three. She gave two to Caroline and kept one to give to Leandro.Of course, she didn't mean anything else, just to show her intentions."Um... Dangelo's concert is tonight. I have tickets. D
Charlotte wore a cornflower print long dress today. Before going on stage, she came over with a bare face and casually tied her hair into a twisted braid, which hung down on her left shoulder.When she was just led in by Jayden a moment ago, she was calm and gentle, speaking in a slow and soft manner.Beautiful and naturally beautiful, with an extremely good temperament, but there are also girls like Charlotte in the entertainment industry.Dangelo has been in the industry for ten years, and there are countless people in the industry who have pursued him. Not to mention the wealthy second-generation heiresses outside the industry who have also pursued him, their numbers are beyond count.Before Clinton arrived, it was heard that Dangelo personally paid 300 thousand dollars to invite Charlotte as a guest performer for the concert. He offered 450 thousand dollars to have Charlotte join him on stage to accompany him for two songs.This matter, whether
Charlotte went off the stage after her opening song, and it wasn't until the intermission that she had her "moment".After she stepped down, she took the mineral water from Caroline's hand and was about to unscrew it when she saw Tiffany not far away.Caroline leaned over and said, "What a bummer!"Charlotte calmly took a sip of water and said, "It's okay, anyway I came to work today, working for Dangelo."No matter how capable Tiffany was, she could not meddle in Dangelo's affairs.Charlotte guessed right indeed, Tiffany gritted her teeth when she saw her, but what could she do?With Dangelo and Jayden around, Tiffany had no other choice but to endure their blowing noses and glaring at her.Charlotte was busy memorizing the instructions for the performance and had no time to "appreciate" Tiffany's funny face.After a blink of an eye, it was already past four in the afternoon. After two rehearsals, Charlotte's part had no mista
"Are you nervous?"Dangelo's voice came from beside her, and Charlotte snapped back to reality. She turned her head and glanced at him, shaking her head. "I'm fine."She wasn't nervous at all. Although she had never seen such a big scene before, she never got nervous during international major competitions. Today, she was just here to make some extra money. Just kidding, how could she possibly be nervous?Dangelo raised an eyebrow, "Well, Ms. Bernard has never seen any big scenes."As soon as Dangelo finished speaking, the originally pitch-black stage suddenly lit up with blue lights.Afterwards, various lights lit up, and a vast expanse of stars was projected behind the screen.Charlotte looked on, slightly embarrassed.I'm sorry, she really had never seen such a big scene.The lights came on, and she and Dangelo took the stage.Dangelo reached out his hand, and Charlotte pursed her lips before placing her hand on top o
Dangelo had already walked over to her side, and Charlotte, following the rehearsed script from earlier in the day, picked up the microphone and answered a few of Dangelo's questions. Then she could step back and wait for the intermission before going back on stage one last time. Finally, they wrapped up for the day."Ms. Bernard, many of our mutual fans have come here today. Do you have anything you would like to say to them?"Charlotte smiled at the camera on the big screen and said, "I am very grateful for their support over the years. I am honored that the two of us have shared fans.""'Honored' should be said by me. Ms. Bernard--"Dangelo had originally planned to ask Charlotte how she felt, but at that moment, a female voice from the audience broke the silence, "Charlotte, I love you! I am your biggest fan!"The sound was very close, and Charlotte immediately saw that it was Daisy and Elizabeth shouting at the top of their lungs there.
From her perspective, both Daisy and Elizabeth noticed something was wrong.Daisy obediently took down the sign and curiously asked, "Lottie, what are you looking for?"Elizabeth also glanced around and said, "Yeah, do you have other friends coming over?"Charlotte looked away and said, "No, there isn't. You all go back to your seats; I'll go to the backstage to prepare."The time of this halftime, it came as soon as it was mentioned.Well, she changed her clothes and came over for a visit. It has been fifteen minutes since then."Then you go!"Daisy came over for Charlotte. She held Charlotte's hand and said, "Lottie, can I go with you backstage?"Elizabeth didn't know when she became friends with Daisy, but at that time, she was still speaking up for her, saying, "Just let her go with you. She has been talking about you all night in my ear."Charlotte: "...Well."She was mainly afraid that Daisy always discussed
Charlotte and Leandro ate lunch at home.After finishing lunch, she felt a bit sore in her waist and her stomach wasn't very comfortable. After practicing the piano for an hour, she went back to her room and took a nap.Charlotte was feeling a bit sleepy, probably due to her menstrual cycle.This afternoon nap, she slept directly from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM.After a good night's sleep, she felt much better. She went to the balcony and enjoyed the breeze for a while, then went to the piano room.When Auntie came up with the brown sugar water, Charlotte only then found out that Leandro had just returned to the company half an hour ago."Mr. Romero said he can't have dinner with you, let me tell you, Mrs. Romero.""Oh, okay, I got it."Joyce finished conveying the message and then asked Charlotte what she wanted to eat for dinner.She didn't have much appetite, so Joyce was asked to watch over her.Leandro didn't come ba
Leandro had already changed the bed sheets. When he saw her coming out, his gaze fell on her feet, and he immediately walked over and lifted her up. "Why aren't you wearing slippers?"Charlotte looked down at her feet and realized that she had been walking without shoes all along.She awkwardly said, "I forgot."When Leandro picked her up and put her on the toilet just now, she wasn't wearing slippers. After finishing, she completely forgot about wearing slippers.Leandro placed her on the bed and bent down, holding the soles of her feet.Charlotte didn't feel her feet cold just now, but now they are being held by his hands, his big warm palms covering her soles, the comfortable and soothing feeling makes her want to keep it forever.But not long after, Leandro covered her feet to keep them warm, took a tissue from her dressing table, and then came back to help her wipe her feet. After that, he directly put her legs into the thin blanket and
The cat's humming sound, like cat claws scratching, was teasing every nerve of Leandro.And his pride in self-control, at this moment, finally crumbled completely.Leandro held her slender and long neck, lifting her slightly and pulling her closer to his body. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her delicate collarbone.He kissed her slowly and gently, just like a devout believer.Charlotte could feel the delicacy and tenderness of each of his kisses clearly, as the tingling sensation increased in range with each kiss.She was like a bamboo shoot, peeled off its outer layer, revealing delicate skin.The coldness of the air conditioner hit, and Charlotte shivered for a moment.The man's arms were warm and strong, and she was held by him, the coldness diminished slightly. However, the embarrassment and the upcoming events made her feel a certain unknown fear.Just when she thought it was about to happen, Leandro suddenly grabbed
Charlotte was afraid that Elizabeth would send her explicit novels, so she quickly logged out of Line after saying goodnight.At that moment, Leandro came out of the bathroom.She took a glance and, for some reason, it reminded her of what Elizabeth had just said, "It's not only couples who sleep together, nor is it only those who don't."She instinctively thought about her marriage with Leandro, which had been almost five months, and realized that they hadn't had any intimate moments as a couple yet. She wondered if it was a bit absurd.At the thought of this, Charlotte's face had immediately become flushed.She instinctively raised her hand and covered her cheek, wanting to cool down her face.Leandro looked at her like that and asked with a smile, "What was Mrs. Romero thinking?""No, I didn't think about anything."Charlotte was very guilty, she didn't dare to tell him that she had just been thinking about the married life
Charlotte finished taking a shower and unconsciously picked up her phone, opening Line.Normally at this time, she would chat and gossip exclusively with Elizabeth.But these days, whenever she picked up her phone, there were no messages from Elizabeth.She was not originally a person who liked to browse the internet for gossip, so basically everything online was shared with her by Elizabeth.Charlotte opened Line and looked at Elizabeth's profile picture. Her finger hovered over it, hesitating for a moment, but she ultimately didn't click on it.Forget it, Liz must have been too busy lately, so it's better not to disturb her.She quit Line and went on Twitter to check the trending topics.As soon as she went online, Charlotte saw Dangelo's trending topic.Did Dangelo date someone?Charlotte looked at the hashtag #DangeloLove# and instinctively took a screenshot and sent it to Elizabeth: [screenshot.JPG].Charlott
When Charlotte went back, she only saw Marcus and his girlfriend.This time, Marcus didn't see her.On the contrary, her girlfriend was looking at her thoughtfully.Charlotte didn't want to cause trouble, so she glanced briefly and then quickly walked back to her seat.Their seats were by the window, about ten meters away from the spot where Marcus had just stopped them. Leandro was unaware of what had happened just now.When he saw her come back, he handed the menu to her and said, "Take a look and see what you want to eat."Charlotte glanced at him, took the menu, lightly bit her lip, made her selection, and handed the menu back to Leandro. "I just ran into Marcus earlier," she said."Hmm?"Upon hearing her words, Leandro raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did he trouble you?"Charlotte shook her head and then nodded, "He stopped me and told me some strange things."She was completely unaware of what Marcus meant.
The sound of "Lottie" that Marcus just made was not small, and all the diners around the table heard it.Of course, his companion naturally heard it too.Odelia Vance had already heard about the affair between Charlotte and Marcus.Charlotte and Leandro were already married, and she didn't think Marcus would anger Leandro at this time.Over the course of their relationship, Marcus was still good to her. He didn't show much interest in other women and, overall, he can be considered loyal.Of course, back then, Charlotte and her affair with him caused quite a stir, so naturally she was worried that Marcus might have a soft spot for other women.However, Lydia was the only one left as Marcus had personally sent everyone away, so she didn't have to worry about this issue.Putting aside all of this, let's take a look at Marcus, who was also a good man.In general, Odelia was quite satisfied with Marcus in all aspects.The onl
Leandro looked at her, raising his eyebrows slightly, "What do you think?"The question was thrown back at her.Charlotte was embarrassed. She already felt a bit guilty when she asked this question, and now that he threw the question back at her, she didn't have the courage to continue speaking.She gently squeezed Swiftbolt's belly with her legs, and Swiftbolt took a few steps forward."Did we go back?"Leandro looked at his watch and said, "Do you still want to continue?"Charlotte shook her head and felt a little embarrassed, "I was a bit hungry.""Shall we go for dinner? Eat outside?"At this time, Joyce probably hadn't made dinner yet.Charlotte thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.The two of them changed back into their regular clothes and came out of the stable, it was already almost half past five.Charlotte remembered that she had not told Joyce that she would not be coming home for d
"Charlotte!"When Charlotte heard someone calling her, at first she thought it was an illusion, until she heard it for the second time.She tightened the reins and made Swiftbolt stop.At the same time, the person calling her also rode over on a horse.She didn't know who was calling her until the person got closer.Leandro's younger brother - Elvis.The other person looked at her with a contemptuous expression, and Charlotte didn't need to think to know that this Elvis was probably going to say something unpleasant again.If it was in the past, she would not hesitate to choose to curse back.But now things are different, she and Leandro have been playing a game for real, and in the face of her younger brother-in-law, she has to have a bit of an elder's demeanor.Not to mention, Leandro has already offended two of his three close relatives.This last one, Charlotte was indeed quite troubled.If she also off
