The elevator quickly reached the first floor, and Charlotte found a quiet corner, planning to wait there for her family's driver to come pick her up.Marcus had been persistently following her, and upon reaching the corner, his eyes lit up with evident hope, "Lottie."Marcus was supporting Charlotte's wheelchair, intending to squat down to talk to her, but Charlotte directly knocked the CT report in her hand onto his: "Don't touch me!"The report was thin and even though it was rolled up and didn't hurt when hit, the disdain in Charlotte's eyes was so obvious.Marcus only felt as if a heavy hammer had struck his heart, his throat filled with bitterness.He took a step back, careful not to touch her wheelchair, before squatting down in front of her, "Lottie, can you look at me?"Charlotte cast her gaze upon his face. For some reason, the face she once adored now seemed to evoke no feelings in her.If I had to say, it would probably be that there was still some sighing.Sighing over the
Returning to the Bernard's house, Charlotte planned to drop a line to Leandro to report her safety.No matter what, even if they were a plastic couple, they still bore the title of husband and wife.Charlotte opened Line, looked at the contact list, and fell into silence.She forgot she didn't have Leandro's Line!Alas, they were indeed a plastic couple!Ah, no, she had Leandro's Line!Thinking about this, Charlotte was glad that she had been a bit slow in her actions. If she had just called Leandro to reassure him and casually asked for another line, their plastic marriage would probably have come to an end.Finding Leandro's Line was too easy. The profile picture was an infinite geometry on a black background, and the Line name was "L".The two had a conversation before, but that was all a few days ago, the chat box had long sunk to the bottom.Charlotte pulled Leandro up, "Mr. Romero, I have safely arrived home. [Obedient.JPG]"Meanwhile, the speaker who was presenting in the meeti
The online incident lasted for several days, and Marcus and Lydia were severely criticized by netizens.The Gallagher family had become the butt of jokes recently, of course, there were inevitably some sour grapes making sarcastic remarks about Charlotte.Just when a sour grape was posting on Timeline, he forgot to divide into groups. The sour grape comments that overflowed the screen were directly seen by Charlotte."Ah, some people are just lucky. They were dealt a bad hand, but someone picked it up, and now it's a good hand again. On the other hand, the other two people who were playing cards with them are now being severely criticized. When it comes to matters of the heart, how can there be absolute right or wrong?"Charlotte used to have no temper at all, she didn't know what happened, but after a confrontation with Lydia online, she felt that her temper had become quite bad.The other party didn't categorize, whether it was intentional or unintentional, but she saw it. She was n
Charlotte woke up early the next day. Knowing that she was going to record accompaniment for a friend that day, Greyson immediately assigned Terrell to her.Since the wedding day, this was the first time Charlotte had interacted with the outside world again.In these past days, the only people she had seen were Greyson and Elizabeth, plus a plastic husband named Leandro.Today was her re-entry into the social scene, Charlotte had purposely woken up early to apply what she considered to be perfect makeup, she chose a vintage-style dress from brand A, and wore a thin cardigan over it.The recording was done indoors, Charlotte had participated once before, and the air conditioning was quite cold.Greyson also enjoyed seeing Charlotte dressed up beautifully, which gave him a sense of enduring accomplishment for attending the dinner parties he hated.Charlotte looked good today, and Greyson had been smiling all morning.The father and daughter had breakfast together, and then immediately w
Dangelo walked straight up to Charlotte, looked her up and down, "Your leg, is it lame?"Charlotte was a bit embarrassed, "No, I broke a bone. The doctor advised me to rest, so I had no choice but to use a wheelchair."Dangelo clicked his tongue, "I should have said earlier, I would have sent someone to pick you up.""It's okay, my driver brought me here.""Alright then."After exchanging a few pleasantries, Dangelo got straight to the point: "Your timing is perfect, we were just about to start!"The two of them had just been chatting intimately, and Dangelo's agent's face was getting worse and worse, looking like he was about to explode. It was then that Dangelo introduced, "Charlotte, last year's winner of the International Castaneda Piano Competition, the special invited piano accompanist for my new album!"Upon hearing Dangelo's words, the agent's face immediately changed. He enthusiastically stepped forward to greet Charlotte, "Ms. Bernard, hello! My name is Jayden Brandt, Dangel
Dangelo emerged from the recording studio. It had already been over forty minutes.It was already eleven fifty, lunchtime.Dangelo took the water handed to him by his assistant and started drinking, "Lunch together?""No, my driver is downstairs."Dangelo took another sip of water, clearly showing his thirst. His light brown eyes lingered on her for a moment, "Alright, I won't trouble you anymore."He said, tossing her a box, "A token of gratitude."Charlotte opened it, revealing a cute and delicate rabbit bag clasp. Confirming that it wasn't a very expensive gift, she accepted it, saying, "I'll treat you to a meal next time we have the chance.""When was the next time?"He suddenly asked this, Charlotte was completely unprepared and was taken aback, "When are you free?""I was quite free today."Charlotte was utterly embarrassed, her face burning hot. She couldn't respond to that statement.Seeing her embarrassment, Dangelo didn't tease her anymore: "Just kidding."Charlotte breathed
#The naive Ms. Wagner took power#At first, Charlotte didn't realize that she was trending. The trending position wasn't very high, but it wasn't low either, ranking at the eleventh spot.Charlotte had not yet gotten used to the nickname that netizens gave Lydia until she curiously clicked on this trending topic. Only then did she realize that the trending topic was about Lydia and Marcus.It turned out that someone had taken a photo of Lydia and Marcus going to a hotel together at around two in the morning last night.Not only photos, but even short videos were there.Probably neither of them noticed that someone was following and taking pictures of them. As soon as they entered the room, they started kissing passionately. However, not long after they started, the door was closed. One can easily imagine what happened next.Yesterday online, Lydia wanted to blame Charlotte, but it backfired. Everyone thought that the situation had already escalated enough last night, but to everyone's
Dangelo's fans were quite rational, but there were too many people stirring up trouble. Charlotte was directly brought to third place on the trending list, while the news about Lydia and Marcus renting a room together directly dropped in popularity.Charlotte saw such a big scene for the first time, and she was somewhat panicked inside.Dangelo's identity was special, so she didn't dare to speak recklessly. Just as she was about to call Dangelo to ask how she should cooperate. Line received a message from "L"."[Image]""[Image]""Should Ms. Bernard have explained?"It's over, her plastic husband also knew about this matter.Charlotte's heart fluttered for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. After all, she hadn't done anything wrong, she was just helping out and making some extra money on the side.Charlotte organized her words, "Mr. Romero, it's not what you think! Dangelo and I are just friends! He asked me to record the accompaniment for his new album more than two months ago, a
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
