Leandro looked at her and explained, "The first time you came, I was worried about you riding alone. Can you ride alone after you have learned?"Charlotte thought the same way, "Sure."Just one question, "Did I have a coach to teach me?"Mainly, she has been here for so long and hasn't seen any coach."I taught you."Charlotte heard what he said and pursed her lips, "I was afraid."The staff member who was untying the horse rope on the side chuckled, "Mrs. Romero, don't worry, Mr. Romero is very skilled in horsemanship."Charlotte looked at Leandro with a puzzled expression and said, "I didn't mean that, what I meant was, I was afraid that I was too dumb and wouldn't be able to learn.""If you can't learn it, you will continue to learn next time."Leandro said as he led the horse, "Say hello to Windchaser."Charlotte looked at Leandro and said, "I couldn't."Leandro taught her where Windchaser liked to be touched. Charlotte saw Windchaser wagging its tail contentedly and knew that it
Leandro looked at the sudden appearance of Hanna, a hint of dissatisfaction flickering in his dark eyes. "Hanna, Lottie, this is the daughter of my mother's good friend.""This is my wife, Charlotte.""Hello, Ms. Norton."Charlotte realized it and smiled at Hanna.Hanna looked at her, "I was a little rude just now, I hope I didn't scare you, Ms. Bernard."She said, her gaze shifting towards Leandro, "I won't disturb you anymore."With that, Hanna kicked her feet and the white horse carried her away.Charlotte turned her head and thought about what Hanna had just called out, "Lance." She felt a sourness in her chest, as if someone had squeezed a drop of lemon juice into it.She didn't know if she was being oversensitive, but she always felt that Hanna was doing it on purpose.Charlotte suppressed her sour thoughts and forced herself to say, "Ms. Norton's equestrian skills are really good.""Generally."Upon hearing Leandro's words, Charlotte suddenly felt less sour.She glanced in the
When Charlotte was lifted down from the horse by Leandro, her face was both hot and red.Although it is a normal thing between spouses, she and Leandro couldn't help but blush at their fake marital relationship.Not to mention, there were three onlookers beside.Fortunately, Aidan and the others were quite "sensible" and didn't say anything about Leandro carrying her off the horse.Leandro returned the horse to the staff and glanced at Aidan and them, asking, "Is there anything else?""It wasn't often that we had free time, Charlotte, shall we have a meal together?"Aidan knew that asking Leandro was useless in such matters, but if Charlotte agreed, Leandro would definitely agree too.Charlotte was suddenly cued and naturally, she couldn't refuse, "I'm fine."She spoke and glanced at Leandro.It was obvious, all depended on Leandro.Aidan looked at the two people and suddenly felt a sour taste in his mouth.Alright, we still have to rely on Leandro.Ms. Bernard, oh Ms. Bernard, you we
Charlotte couldn't think of anything delicious either. After thinking for a while, she replied, "Foreign cuisine?""Okay."Today is the weekend, and the two of them did not make a reservation in advance. There were no seats available inside the restaurant.Finally, Leandro took charge and decided to change course to eat home-based food.After going around in circles, the two of them had already finished dinner and it was almost 7:30.When she left, Charlotte suddenly saw a familiar face.The person is none other than Angela, who was the center of discussion last night and today.Obviously, Angela also saw Charlotte and Leandro.Ever since Angela realized that Hanna had sold her, she has believed that Leandro was the one who did it.She saw Leandro now and felt afraid instinctively.Angela took just one glance and then turned around and ran away as if escaping.Charlotte: "?"Damn it, last time in the store, she completely ignored me, but Angela insisted on going up to say hello.Why d
Charlotte's mind was filled with Elizabeth's words, "This woman clearly wants to steal your man," to the point that she didn't even notice when she got home.Leandro, who was standing beside her, called her twice but noticed that she didn't respond. He immediately bent down and helped her unbuckle the seatbelt.The familiar scent of wood suddenly wafted over, and Charlotte snapped back to reality.She looked at Leandro, who was helping her unbuckle her seatbelt, and Elizabeth's words came back to her.I don't know why, but she suddenly had an inexplicable panic."What are you thinking about, so seriously?"Charlotte was absent-mindedly walking when she heard his words, and subconsciously responded, "Trying to steal a man?"?!What did she just say?Realizing what she had said, Charlotte froze completely.Why not open the car door, run upstairs, close the door, and pretend to be dead?However, before she could turn this idea into reality, there was a sudden "click" inside the carriage,
"Did your friend know that the male colleague didn't like her?"Charlotte was very guilty and dared not meet Leandro's gaze. She only dared to look at his collar and said, "She was also unsure. If she knew he didn't like her, she wouldn't be so conflicted!"If she had known that Leandro didn't like her, of course she would have closed her heart and stopped loving him."What did your friend think of that male colleague?"Charlotte looked at Leandro, who was analyzing the situation with a serious expression on his face, and felt increasingly guilty. "Well, well, it's fine. Sometimes when she gets bullied, that male colleague will speak up for her.""Oh, I see,"Leandro looked at her, seemingly deep in thought. "My personal suggestion is that your friend could confess their feelings boldly.""Really, is it true?"If she had boldly confessed her feelings, would Leandro really have thrown her out of this villa?"Um."Leandro nodded and looked down at her, saying, "Since that man didn't sho
Charlotte almost ran back to her room; she was so scared by Leandro's ambiguous words that she couldn't sleep at all.After locking the door, she quickly looked for Elizabeth: "Liz! Liz! Come out quickly!"Just finished showering, Elizabeth asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so jumpy tonight?"Why was riding a horse so exciting?Charlotte touched her flushed cheek and quickly typed to explain, "I almost exposed myself just now! Luckily, I was clever and made up a friend!"Elizabeth was good at catching the main points: revealing the filling, revealing what filling?Charlotte organized her thoughts for a moment and succinctly explained the situation to Elizabeth: "...don't you think the things Leandro said were a bit strange?"Elizabeth: Don't you think he was hitting on you?Charlotte: What do you mean by "click me"? I didn't expose myself! I mean, he seemed to think it was silly that I was chasing after Marcus...Charlotte: Actually, when I think about it, I also feel like I was very
Charlotte took a breath and said, "It's nothing, are you going back to the office later?"Elizabeth saw herself like this, how could she be at ease to go back to the company? "What happened? Is something wrong?""What's wrong? What happened to me?"Elizabeth pursed her lips and said, "Lottie, you know, you couldn't lie, and you can't lie."Charlotte, of course, knew that she couldn't lie, but in public, if she really couldn't hold back her tears, it would be too embarrassing.She also didn't know why, but these days she kept thinking about whether Leandro knew that she liked him and whether he would dislike her.She wanted to know the answer, yet she was afraid to know the answer.But his eyes could see through people's hearts, and Charlotte was afraid that she would accidentally reveal everything, so she had to find ways to avoid him.She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the message he sent in the afternoon, saying that he wouldn't come back for dinner in the evening.I didn't
At this moment, Charlotte was so embarrassed that she could count out a three-bedroom apartment. She dared not look at Leandro, and could only stare at the traffic light in front of the windshield, counting the numbers one by one."10-9-7-8...1! Green light!"She turned her head and blushed as she glanced at Leandro.The green light is on, the green light is on, let's drive quickly!As for the previous question, let's not pay any more attention to it.Leandro looked at her, his dark eyes slightly flickered, and then he averted his gaze and started the car again.Forget it, I didn't want to bother her.Joyce saw Charlotte and Leandro coming back together and was a little surprised. "Mrs. Romero, Mr. Romero..."She thought that only Charlotte would come back for lunch, so she didn't prepare it for Leandro.Although she made three dishes, they were all small portions. Charlotte alone couldn't finish them all, and even with Leandro, it was definitely not enough to eat.When Joyce saw Lean
After leaving the ward, Charlotte asked him, "Why did you suddenly come over?"Leandro looked at her and chuckled, "If I didn't come over, this son-in-law would have been incompetent."Charlotte was a bit embarrassed and said, "Dad, I know you were busy.""No matter how busy, we don't lack that little bit of time," he took her hand, "Besides, today is Saturday, it's supposed to be a day off."Charlotte glanced up at him and remembered the phone incident. "Did they find out who called my dad? When I took his phone earlier, I checked his call history, but it was completely deleted."Leandro looked down at her and said, "I haven't found anything yet. That person is very cunning, they always call with a virtual number."Virtual numbers, you couldn't find out who the person on the other side was at all."Okay."Charlotte pursed her lips and said, "What if she kept calling my dad with a virtual number? Are we just supposed to sit and wait for it?""Don't worry too much, if the other person
Greyson paused for a moment, then let out a sigh.The Romero family's situation, he also didn't want to interfere too much, so he just patted his daughter's hand to show comfort.Leandro's mother, Greyson, actually met a few times in the past, and she was remembered as a beautiful and gentle woman.Just unfortunate, she got breast cancer in her thirties and passed away before she turned forty.This incident was quite sensational at that time because for a period of time, many people said that Leandro's mother had committed suicide, otherwise how could it have happened on Marco's birthday.Of course, these are all rumors, and no one knows what is true or false.Greyson has never been a person who gossips behind others' backs. Although he knew about these things, he couldn't distinguish the truth from falsehood, so he naturally didn't bring them up to Charlotte."Then these days, you spent more time with Leandro, he was also having a hard time."At the age of around ten, he lost his bio
Charlotte woke up to the bright daylight. As soon as she opened her eyes, the dazzling sunlight startled her.She instinctively raised her hand to block, squinted her eyes, and grabbed the phone from the side.After checking the time, Charlotte's remaining drowsiness instantly disappeared.It was half past eight!She slept until half past eight!This was not the scariest thing for her. The scariest part was that she couldn't even remember how she fell asleep last night.Charlotte quickly sat up from the bed and ran her fingers through her hair. After that, she began to ponder how she had fallen asleep last night.The memories of last night were starting to awaken, but she thought about it several times and could only remember herself passionately kissing Leandro.What happened to the rest of the memories?Charlotte felt more and more scared!No way, no way, she didn't fall asleep while kissing Leandro last night, did she?This realization made her face instantly heat up. Charlotte rai
The room was very quiet. Leandro patiently waited for a while, but in the end, he couldn't resist the longing in his heart and body. He turned his head, as if testing the waters, and gently kissed Mrs. Romero on the side of her face, almost as if he was asking for something.However, just now he was leaning against his Charlotte, but at this moment there was no response, no movement. Just now, there was a slight rapid breathing, but now it has become very calm."Lottie?"Leandro put the person on the bed and then realized that Charlotte was already asleep.He looked at the person sleeping on the bed, silently chuckling, and somewhat helplessly, he gently lifted her onto the pillow, then pulled over the thin blanket from the side and covered her with it.It can be seen that Charlotte was really tired. When the blanket was placed over her, she reached out and pulled it a bit, then she turned to the side and continued sleeping.Leandro sat on the bed and looked at her for a while, confir
"Social news?"Leandro glanced at her with a meaningful look.Charlotte raised her hand and touched her earlobe, "If we had been caught just now, the cemetery keeper would have called the police...""Why?"When it comes to this issue, Charlotte felt guilty.She couldn't say that she was quite familiar with the gravedigger.Charlotte didn't recognize the person at first, but just now she saw a familiar figure in the rearview mirror.Upon closer inspection, isn't it the gravedigger who caught her and Elizabeth five years ago?He was quite dedicated to his job and had been working for five years, still being so diligent."I, I just guessed."The traffic light was red, and Leandro smirked, but he didn't expose her.The cemetery is still a bit far from the downtown area, and it was already past 11 o'clock at night when the car returned to the community.Returning to the villa, there were only five minutes
"Can I hug you?"Charlotte subconsciously shook her head, not wanting Leandro to just bend down and pick her up: "Let me hold you instead, what if the gravekeeper comes back later?"Her face turned red, she pursed her lips, raised her hand and hooked it around his neck, obediently responding with a soft "Oh."Leandro carried the person and quickly returned to the place where the two of them had just jumped down.When they arrived, Charlotte realized that when they had entered, there were stones. However, there were no stones in this cemetery.Or, even if there were stones, they were cleared out by the cemetery staff.She looked up at the wall that was neither tall nor short, and said, "What should I do?"Can't we stay here tonight?Thinking of this, she looked around and saw tombstones as far as the eye could see.Don't say, it's quite scary.Charlotte quickly averted her gaze and instinctively leaned into Leandro
A gust of wind blew over, and Charlotte felt a chill on her chest. She exclaimed, "Oh!" and obediently followed him back.The cemetery in the night was very quiet, and the sound of the wind seemed particularly loud.The two of them had only walked halfway back when suddenly a flashlight beam shone towards them.Charlotte instinctively grabbed Leandro and said, "Run quickly!"She spoke while lifting her skirt and running to one side."Who?"In the distance, there was the scolding voice of the gravekeeper. Charlotte pulled Leandro and crouched behind a tombstone, "Quick, hide!"Seeing how nervous she was, Leandro had no choice but to crouch down with her.He crouched behind her, his chest almost touching her back.Charlotte listened to the breathing sound in her ears, half of her thoughts on the gravekeeper and the other half on the person behind her.As the footsteps of the gravekeeper grew closer, her heartbeat qu
Upon hearing his voice, Charlotte instinctively looked forward.Leandro's mother's tomb was separate, semi-circular in shape, occupying nearly ten square meters.On the black tombstone, which was over one meter tall, the black and white photo on it appeared clear under the moonlight.This was the first time Charlotte saw a photo of Leandro's mother, and the woman in the photo was so beautiful that she couldn't find words to describe her for a moment.If you look closely, it can be seen that Leandro inherited almost 90% of his mother's appearance.The woman in the photo had long hair that reached her shoulders, and there was a hint of pitifulness in her gentle appearance. Just looking at her photo made people unable to resist feeling pity for her."Mom looked so beautiful."As beautiful as her mommy.Charlotte glanced at Leandro and earnestly praised him.Leandro laughed and said, "She would be very happy if she could hea
