Charlotte just remembered, "I'm sorry, I forgot."
She quickly took out her phone, scanned Adan's QR code, and then added him as a friend.
"Go back and change your clothes, have a hot drink, and be careful not to catch a cold."
"Thank you."
Adan looked at the person and made a slight sound of disapproval, saying, "If you really feel guilty, next time we meet, just treat me to a meal."
Charlotte thought for a moment and nodded, "Well, thank you so much for today."
Otherwise, with such heavy rain, if she had waited for the trailer rescue, her clothes would have been completely wet.
The temperature today was not low, but it rained, making it a bit cold. In addition, she was in a special period. If she got completely wet, she would definitely catch a cold.
Furthermore, Adan's secretary Edgar might still be waiting in the rain for the tow truck rescue.
She really felt grateful.
"Okay."
Adan nodded and watched as
"Your wedding won't go smoothly! I'll let you know Marcus only loves me, and you're just a loser!"After Charlotte Bernard read this text, her face darkened.Today was her wedding with Marcus Gallagher; and the text was from Marcus' childhood sweetheart, Lydia Wagner.Charlotte took a deep breath before turning off her phone.For this wedding, the Bernard family and the Gallagher family invited every influential figure in Aelmere. While Charlotte told herself that Marcus wouldn't do anything stupid on such an occasion, she still felt a bit worried.Meantime, the host on the stage announced the entrance of the groom. "Next, please give your warmest welcome to our handsome groom, Mr. Marcus Gallagher!"As the host's voice trailed off, the banquet hall broke out into a round of thunderous applause.However, a few seconds had passed, and the groom, who should get on the stage, was still nowhere to be found.Whispers circulated among the crowd. The host smiled calmly to make light of the "
Charlotte was severely injured. She was sent to the hospital and underwent an emergency operation for eight hours.But even so, Charlotte was still not out of the woods yet. If she didn't wake up in the next 48 hours, she would never be able to in the future.When Greyson heard this, he almost fainted.Greyson's wife passed away a long time ago, so his baby girl, Charlotte, meant the whole world to him. It was supposed to be Charlotte's big day today, but Marcus ruined it by deserting Charlotte at the wedding.Looking at the Gallaghers, Greyson flew into a rage. "Get lost! All of you, get the hell out of here!"After Greyson drove away the Gallaghers, there was only Charlotte, and her best friend, Elizabeth Buck, in the ward.As Charlotte's bridesmaid, Elizabeth was on standby in the banquet hall the whole time. When Elizabeth realized something was wrong, Charlotte was already carried into an ambulance.Elizabeth couldn't understand how such a joyful wedding turned into an awful disa
When Melvin and Elizabeth reached Charlotte's ward, they happened to see Leandro walk out.Seeing that Leandro was leaving, Melvin immediately followed him.There were a lot of visitors in the hospital at this time, so the elevators were crammed with people.Melvin didn't get a chance to ask questions until he and Leandro got in the car. "Mr. Romero, did Ms. Bernard tell you what she wanted?"Hearing this question, Leandro opened his eyes, tapped the leather seat with his finger, and said, "She did.""Then what do you need me to get for you?" Melvin asked, feeling a bit glad that Charlotte was a straightforward woman.Then, he heard Leandro speaking in the back seat, "A wedding house."Melvin thought he heard it wrong, and he subconsciously turned his face around, staring at Leandro. "Mr. Romero, did you just say 'a wedding house'?"Meanwhile, Melvin thought, 'I'm not that old to lose my hearing, am I?'"Yes," Leandro confirmed it.Then he closed his eyes again and raised his left han
Charlotte hadn't seen Leandro since he came to discuss the compensation last time.As time passed by, Charlotte slowly realized that she really acted like a jerk the other day.So, when Charlotte saw Leandro again, she was embarrassed and guilt-ridden.On the other hand, Greyson wasn't surprised to see Leandro because Leandro was the culprit of the car accident.But Elizabeth didn't overthink it. She thought Leandro was a nice guy and shouldn't be fully responsible for the accident.After Greyson exchanged pleasantries with Leandro, he went to sign the hospital discharge papers, while Elizabeth took Charlotte's medical card to print the test results, leaving Leandro and Charlotte alone in the ward.As it still needed time for Charlotte's broken calf bone to heal, she was confined to a wheelchair now.Leandro was very tall, and Charlotte had to raise her head to meet his eyes. "Mr. Romero, about the compensation...""I've thought it through," Leandro interrupted her.He then suddenly c
"Charlotte!" Marcus's face darkened. "Why did you do that to Lydia? She's sick! That's not something she can control!"Lydia, teary-eyed, pulled Marcus's arm and mumbled, "Marcus, don't blame Lottie. I deserved it. Because of me, your wedding was canceled. It's all my fault!"Charlotte couldn't be bothered to watch Lydia act, so she hopped away.Elizabeth blew a raspberry at Lydia and Marcus and hissed sarcastically, "Yeah. It's not your fault. You never make any mistake! You're just feeling blue, and the whole world has to make way for you! We get it!"With that, Elizabeth directly turned around and followed Charlotte.Marcus wanted to catch up with them, but he controlled his urge after he saw Lydia's current state."Marcus, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I know it's all my fault!"Hearing Lydia keep saying sorry, Marcus began to take umbrage against Charlotte. He said to Lydia, "No. It's not your fault! She's way over the line!"And he told himself in his heart, 'Lydia didn't want to be
Charlotte realized she had mistaken for the wrong person and whispered embarrassedly, "Mr. Romero?""I'm outside your villa, Ms. Bernard," Leandro said.Hearing this, Charlotte hurriedly pushed the wheelchair near the window and saw a Bentley downstairs."Mr. Romero, what brought you here?" she asked.Due to her leg problem, Charlotte could only ask over the phone instead of going downstairs.But as soon as she finished her words, she remembered what Leandro was here for.Leandro realized something too. He paused and said in a flirting tone, "Ms. Bernard, are you playing hard to get?"Charlotte immediately sat straight and hurriedly explained, "No, it's not like that! Mr. Romero, I can explain. It's..."Charlotte was suddenly short of words, thinking, 'Explain what? Am I supposed to tell him that I was just too angry and wanted to piss Marcus off at that time? No, I can't do that! Well. I don't know what Leandro is planning, but I can tell he really wants to compensate me. So, Charlot
Charlotte hurriedly took back her hands and clenched her fists. "I'm sorry."Leandro tilted his head and took a look at the index finger that was held by Charlotte just now. Then, he left without saying anything.Charlotte kept thinking of what Leandro said about taking her home in a week. She couldn't even eat well.She felt that Leandro did it on purpose. She forced him to marry her. And now, he began to take revenge on her for her rude and outrageous request for marriage.Charlotte hadn't told Greyson about her marriage with Greyson.When Elizabeth gave her a video call invitation, Charlotte was not in the mood for dinner anymore. She let go of her fork, picked up her phone, and pushed her wheelchair to the sofa."Lottie, did you have dinner?" Elizabeth asked."Just had some, but I didn't have much appetite," Charlotte replied.After a short pause, Charlotte was about to confess to Elizabeth about getting the marriage certificate with Leandro. But before she said anything, Elizabet
Elizabeth was cursing while looking through Timeline. Suddenly, her phone notified her that Charlotte made a new post.Elizabeth was a bit stunned. "Lottie, what Timeline did you post?"Charlotte knew she couldn't explain it clearly, so she just said, "You'll know after you look at it."Elizabeth slid her finger on the screen and immediately saw Charlotte's new post.When Elizabeth saw the photo of the marriage certificate, she thought that Charlotte married Marcus to piss off Lydia. But when she saw the groom's name clearly, she was totally shocked. "What? I'm not dreaming, am I?"Charlotte's face burned up when she heard Elizabeth's exaggerated tone over the phone. "It's true, Liz."After Elizabeth realized what was going on, she burst out laughing. "Well done! Hah! Seriously, Leandro is way much better than Marcus! Now I wanna see if that bitch Lydia still has the nerve to show off! Oh, this is so good! Lottie, you've truly surprised me!"Charlotte was initially worried that Elizab
Charlotte just remembered, "I'm sorry, I forgot."She quickly took out her phone, scanned Adan's QR code, and then added him as a friend."Go back and change your clothes, have a hot drink, and be careful not to catch a cold.""Thank you."Adan looked at the person and made a slight sound of disapproval, saying, "If you really feel guilty, next time we meet, just treat me to a meal."Charlotte thought for a moment and nodded, "Well, thank you so much for today."Otherwise, with such heavy rain, if she had waited for the trailer rescue, her clothes would have been completely wet.The temperature today was not low, but it rained, making it a bit cold. In addition, she was in a special period. If she got completely wet, she would definitely catch a cold.Furthermore, Adan's secretary Edgar might still be waiting in the rain for the tow truck rescue.She really felt grateful."Okay."Adan nodded and watched as
It was raining heavily, and although Charlotte was holding an umbrella, her lower legs got wet in no time.In the morning when she left, she didn't feel cold. But now, standing in the wind and rain, Charlotte gradually started to feel cold.She called the trailer company and, holding her phone, she was originally planning to send a Line message to Leandro, but she was afraid that he would worry.After hesitating for a moment, she still sent a Line message to Leandro. She still remembered the incident of taking Adan to the hospital last time.Better not to anger Mr. Romero.In the black Maybach, Adan just hung up the phone and looked out of the side window.The blue Maserati parked on the road, attracting a lot of attention.The peach blossom eyes slightly curved, not knowing which unlucky soul it was.He averted his gaze, but then turned it back after catching a glimpse of a familiar figure: "Stop the car."The road was
Charlotte arranged to have lunch with Elizabeth near her company. After leaving the hospital, she drove directly to Elizabeth's company.Elizabeth left early before 12 o'clock, Charlotte was browsing Twitter when someone suddenly knocked on the table.She instinctively looked up and, upon seeing Elizabeth, was somewhat surprised, "You're here so soon?"Elizabeth put down her bag and said, "It feels like it's going to rain. I sneaked over before work ended."She took the menu from Charlotte's hand and asked, "How is Uncle's condition? When is the surgery scheduled?""The medical examination results just came out, and the doctor said they will arrange it in the next two days."Elizabeth nodded her head and said, "Once you put on the brace, you won't have to worry anymore. You can also relax.""Yeah! But I felt like my dad was hiding something from me!""That phone call?""Hmm." Charlotte hummed lightly, flipping through th
Greyson looked at the person and said, "What do you want to do?"The woman looked at Greyson and smiled, "Charlotte just left, right?"The daughter is Greyson's only soft spot now. When she mentioned Charlotte, Greyson's face completely turned cold: "If you dare to harass Lottie, I will make you regret it!"The woman seemed indifferent and chuckled lightly, saying, "Then I want to see Mr. Bernard's sincerity."She spoke and took out a card, placing it in front of Greyson. "Mr. Bernard does seem to care about your daughter, but don't forget, I am also your daughter."The woman's face suddenly turned cold as she said, "If you don't want Charlotte to know about this, I suggest you be more tactful."She finished speaking and took out a card from her bag, placing it in front of Greyson. "Here is a card, within three days, I want to see your sincerity!"Greyson picked up the card and tore it directly, saying, "You must be dreaming! I only h
Monday.When Charlotte woke up, Leandro was already on his way to the airport.She lay on her side, looking at the empty bed beside her. After a while, she got up and went to wash up.Joyce saw her coming downstairs and prepared breakfast.The weather today was also nice, but it seemed colder than yesterday.Greyson's medical examination results could be available this morning. She had to go to the hospital to discuss the surgical arrangements with her attending physician.Before leaving, Joyce handed her an umbrella: "Mrs. Romero, the weather forecast said it would rain today."Charlotte took the umbrella and smiled at Joyce, saying, "Thank you, Joyce! I'm going to the hospital, I won't be back for lunch!"She had made an appointment with Elizabeth at noon, as they hadn't seen each other for almost ten days."Okay, be careful on the way.""Uh-huh."Charlotte left home a bit early today and encountered the
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
