After drinking the water, Charlotte returned to the bed and lay down again.Leandro came out of the bathroom and turned on her phone, scrolling through T*****r.After a while, Charlotte couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.After Leandro came out, he saw the person already sleeping on the bed. His thin lips curved into a smile, he turned off the light, and got into bed as well.The man was filled with cold air. Charlotte, half asleep, frowned when she touched Leandro's arm and said, "You're so cold, Leandro."Upon hearing her words, Leandro felt a bit helpless and quickly withdrew his hand.However, the other party did not allow it and consciously pulled their arm away when I tried to hold it."Give me a hug later."He had just taken a cold shower.Charlotte was unwilling, but she crossed her arms and willingly snuggled into his embrace.However, as usual, the warmth was gone, replaced only by a chilling cold.Charlotte suddenly woke up, propping her eyelids wearily, and in the
Charlotte washed her face and went out, and the hotel breakfast had just been delivered.She casually sprayed some moisturizing water and then consciously walked over to sit next to Leandro.After the curtains were pulled open, the sunlight streamed in, giving the whole room a warm and cozy feeling.Charlotte took the spoon from Leandro's hand, her hand brushing against the back of his hand. The warm touch suddenly reminded her of last night when she had fallen asleep hugging Leandro.She bit the spoon and turned her head to look at Leandro, innocently and curiously asking him, "Leandro, why did you take a cold shower last night?"Upon hearing her words, Leandro's hand paused for a moment.He lowered his head and looked deeply into those almond eyes, full of curiosity, "What do you think, Mrs. Romero?""Was it too hot? This air conditioner seems to be a bit underperforming."Leandro looked at her, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, "If I don't take a cold shower, I might have to tro
Charlotte subconsciously glanced in Leandro's direction, remembering how foolishly she had asked him why he took cold showers, her face growing even hotter.She raised her hand and covered her cheek, and sent Elizabeth a serious message: "When were you planning to return to Aelmere?"Elizabeth also stopped teasing her: "We had lunch and then went back. What about you and Mr. Romero?"Charlotte: We were too, do you want to go together?Elizabeth quickly refused: No way! I would rather carry my suitcase alone and be all by myself, I don't want to eat dog food with you guys!Charlotte was taken aback and could only reply, "Okay."She had just prepared to put down her phone and tidy up in the bathroom when she suddenly received a call from Karissa.Charlotte was surprised. Karissa knew that she didn't like to participate in those activities, so after the competition ended, she generally wouldn't contact her again.This is the second time Karissa has contacted her in all the years they have
Because she had to leave for the high-speed rail station a little earlier, Charlotte started to have the hotel deliver the meal at 11:30.The two of them had just finished eating, and it was only 12:15 when Charlotte received a call from Karissa."Charlene, I managed to deceive some of the media for you, but there are still many media waiting at the main entrance of the hotel. The back door of the hotel only has a few scattered media, so I arranged for the hotel to help with a car. You and your husband can leave from the back door later."It was already quite good that Karissa was able to handle this kind of thing for the first time and handle it like this."Okay, I got it. So, see you next time.""Alright, have a safe journey!"Charlotte hung up the phone and turned to Leandro beside her, saying, "There are still many media reporters downstairs. Can we leave through the back door later?"Leandro naturally listened to her: "Okay."After taking a short break, Charlotte packed up her su
The car they were given was right at the door, and the staff took the luggage for them, allowing them to go out and get into the car directly.As soon as the two of them got into the car and closed the door, the nearby journalists also realized it and immediately ran to their car to take photos.Charlotte glanced sideways at Leandro and said, "So exaggerated."The man chuckled and took her hand, playing with her ring finger. "Mrs. Romero's flow was excellent."Charlotte frowned and said, "I am not a celebrity.""You're better than a celebrity."Upon hearing his words, Charlotte became even more embarrassed.The car slowly started moving, and those few reporters gradually couldn't catch up.Charlotte glanced at the rearview mirror and raised an eyebrow at the videographer who was still running and filming.What dedication!It was hard to say how much influence she could have as a non-celebrity.After the car got on the highway, Charlotte took out her phone and sent a Line message to Ka
More precisely, Leandro was only wearing swim trunks.After all, men's swimwear only had one option, which was a pair of square-cut swim trunks.Charlotte had just looked over and immediately saw the well-defined abs.It wasn't the first time she had seen it, but she still couldn't help but blush: "You, you want to go swimming?"She averted her gaze in a panic, anxiously looking around for a place to rest her eyes.After searching for a while, Charlotte finally found a good spot - the handrail behind the stairs, where Leandro was.She looked at the handrail of the stairs, paused for a moment, calmed down, and then shifted her gaze to Leandro's eyes, locking eyes with him.His black eyes looked at her, and the usually calm gaze now had a hint of amusement. "Isn't Mrs. Romero coming along?"She shook her head instinctively, "No."Upon hearing her words, Leandro furrowed his brows slightly and said, "I have never seen Mrs. Romero swim."It seemed quite regretful.Charlotte pursed her lip
Leandro swam butterfly, his form was perfect and pleasing to the eye.He swam to the other side and then turned around and swam back in the water. Charlotte watched as he gradually got closer and closer to her, feeling her heart beating faster inexplicably.Soon, Leandro swam back.He stopped in front of her, raised his head above the water, and the water flowed down from his short hair, running along his cheeks to his neck, and then from his neck to his chest, finally merging back into the water of the swimming pool.Charlotte's gaze subconsciously followed the water droplet, watching it glide across the man's collarbone. She couldn't help but lower her head to take a glance at her own collarbone!Leandro's collarbone was even more attractive than hers!It was probably because her gaze was too intense, Leandro clicked his tongue lightly and asked her directly, "What is Mrs. Romero looking at?"Charlotte was comparing herself to his clavicle, and for a moment, she didn't react. Her mi
Charlotte had not yet realized what was happening when the man's lips descended directly onto hers.Thin lips tightly pressed against her lips, skillfully and effortlessly attacking, and rubbing against her ear.Charlotte was in the water, relying solely on the strength of her hands supporting her waist.The passionate kiss instantly made her go weak in the knees, and she instinctively sought support in the water.I grabbed his hand in the water and Leandro held me tightly around his waist.Leandro tightened his hand around his waist, and the two of them leaned closely together.The breathing of the two became increasingly heavy, and it seemed as if the quiet garden was filled with their breaths.The cool water at this moment turned scorching hot, and Charlotte felt a rush of heat from her feet to her head.This kiss lasted for an unknown amount of time. When it ended, Leandro gently kissed her lower lip and lightly bit it.Very light, a little tingly and a little crispy.Charlotte tr
Leandro was amused by her determined and eager appearance, "I haven't unbuckled my seatbelt yet.""Ah? Oh, then I helped you solve it!"Charlotte blushed, loosened her grip, and bent over to fasten the seatbelt.With a click, the seatbelt released from Leandro's body and retracted.She straightened up and pulled him back: "We flipped in from the side."Upon hearing her words, Leandro's eyebrows twitched, "Mrs. Romero seems familiar."Charlotte glanced at him guiltily and said, "I guessed."In fact, during her student days, Elizabeth used to come to the cemetery when she was being bullied by her stepmother.At first, she didn't know that Elizabeth had come over here until one night when she had a fight with her dad and ran away. Charlotte looked for her in many places but couldn't find her. She was getting desperate and was about to call the police when she suddenly remembered West Cemetery.So she asked Greyson to bring
Charlotte was being led by Leandro towards the exit. Just before they reached the hall, she couldn't help but ask, "Is it a bit impolite for us to leave like this?"Marco didn't like her, but basic courtesy and manners were still necessary.Anyway, he was Leandro's biological father, that's just an undeniable fact.Upon hearing her words, Leandro paused and looked at her with a faint smile, "Mrs. Romero is right, it was indeed a bit impolite."He said, holding her hand, they changed direction and walked towards Marco standing on the side of the stage.Marco was already angry, but his face improved slightly when he saw Leandro turning back.To my surprise, Leandro spoke up and said, "Dad, we have something to do, so we're leaving first."Charlotte quickly spoke up, "Sir Romero, we are leaving now."Marco's face, which had just brightened up, now looked unpleasant again. "Since you're so busy, don't come next time."He sai
She just raised her hand and touched her earlobe, and suddenly felt a rush of heat, followed by Leandro's deep voice sounding in her ear, "I also like Mrs. Romero."Charlotte's ears were originally just turning red, but upon hearing her words, both of her ears turned red, and her face became even hotter.Although she has become much thicker-skinned now, when Leandro said such things to her in public, she still couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.Not far away, Marco had already taken the stage.Charlotte looked at it, but her attention was not there at all.Leandro leaned in close, his breath hitting her neck, hot and ticklish. Her mind was buzzing with warmth, with only his words from a moment ago.Because of Leandro's words, she didn't hear what Daisy said to her.After Daisy finished speaking, she went to find Carlo with Diana. It was only then that Charlotte came to her senses and waved her hand gently at her.The l
Charlotte met Daisy's parents today and only then did she find out that Daisy's personality of liking to give things to people is similar to someone's.After Carlo left with the acquaintance from the mall, there were only Diana, Daisy, and her left here.Charlotte had been thinking about whether she would delay Mr. and Mrs. Clements and their acquaintances in greeting, but she didn't expect that as soon as Carlo left, Diana breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Finally, he's gone. Having a big man like him here really affects us!"Daisy hummed and nodded, "Exactly, Dad also likes to say empty words. Just now, Lottie could barely keep up with the conversation."Diana took Charlotte's hand and said, "Ms. Bernard, Daisy calls you Lottie. Do you mind if I also call you Lottie? You don't have to pay attention to what Daisy's dad said. He's just been in the business world for too long and likes to put on airs."Charlotte frowned and said, "It's okay, Dian
Daisy gritted her teeth and couldn't help but say, "Green tea man!"How did she not know that Leandro was so two-faced before?Charlotte didn't hear what Daisy said clearly and couldn't help but ask, "Daisy, what did you just say?"Daisy naturally didn't want Charlotte to focus her attention on Leandro again. "It's nothing, I'll take you to meet my parents! They would be very happy to see you!"Charlotte didn't refuse either, Daisy remembers the events from five years ago until now, which shows that she is a grateful person.The parents who could raise a grateful daughter like Daisy must have been good.Moreover, Daisy mentioned her already, so there's no better time than the present. Let's meet today, which can also fulfill their wishes."Okay."Charlotte smiled with a curved lip and followed Daisy forward.Along the way, many people looked at them, harboring jealousy towards Daisy's and Charlotte's attitudes.Th
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
