Some of the side dishes in the kitchen were not enough, so Joyce bought some online. They were just delivered and she was carrying the side dishes into the house when she saw Charlotte running down from upstairs. She was a bit surprised and said, "Mrs. Romero, what happened to you?"
Charlotte stopped and glanced at Joyce. "Joyce, you don't need to prepare dinner tonight. I went to my dad's place for dinner."
"Is that Mr. Romero?"
Charlotte felt a little guilty when she mentioned Leandro: "He had a dinner appointment today evening."
She didn't deceive Joyce. Just now, she saw her phone and it was precisely because she saw him saying there was a dinner tonight that she thought of going back to the Bernard's villa.
"Oh, okay, I hadn't prepared the ingredients yet."
Charlotte nodded and took a few steps towards the entrance hall. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "Joyce, there will be a cleaning lady coming later. Please stay."
This was clearly speaking up for Charlotte. When Charlotte, who was drinking pear soup, heard Marco's words, she thought she misheard and choked.She looked at Marco in disbelief and said, "This doesn't sound like something you would say."Charlotte didn't really argue with her elders. Even if they were wrong, she rarely exposed them on the spot to avoid embarrassing them.But these days, since hanging out with Marco, she feels like all the years of being obedient have been sealed away, as if the rebelliousness that didn't come out during adolescence has found an outlet.She was a rare rebel.She used to hold back from saying this to others, but after meeting Marco, she couldn't help but let it slip out.Marco hummed, "Did I say something wrong?"Charlotte pursed her lips and said, "You're right."Leandro looked at me with a complicated expression and said, "My wife, of course I wouldn't leave her hanging."He expressed his attitude and walked to Charlotte's side.Seeing him approachi
Today Marco had chemotherapy. The process was not pleasant, and he felt very weak afterwards. Because of the discomfort, his temper would often be worse.Marco naturally wanted Leandro to come and care about him, but they were not used to being on the same page. Saying these things out loud would make him lose face, so he wouldn't say it.Marissa just asked, just to let him know.Although Marissa was digging into Marco's past the past two days, today Marco had to undergo chemotherapy, so she naturally didn't want to go against him on these matters and make him feel uncomfortable.Charlotte was going to say "Leandro has already come back," but when she looked at Marco's face, she changed her mind: "He was supposed to arrive at noon, but there was a lunch meeting over there, so he decided to come back after the meeting. By the time he lands, it might be around four in the afternoon."As soon as she finished speaking, Marco snorted, "So young, yet so fond of attending dinner parties."Ch
The next day when Charlotte woke up, Leandro was still in bed, which was rare.She thought he was still asleep, wanted to reach for the phone next to her to check the time, just moved a bit, and her waist was grabbed by a big hand."Were you awake, Mrs. Romero?"Leandro had just woken up not long ago, his voice a bit husky.Charlotte felt her ears itching, "Good morning.""Good morning."Leandro said, raising his hand to turn on the light.The room was lit up, and Charlotte also saw her phone.She picked up the phone beside her and found it was still early, not even seven o'clock.But they went to bed early last night, around nine o'clock.I don't know if the rain stopped yesterday. It was still dark when I woke up at six in the morning. The sun hadn't fully come out yet. The room didn't have the heating on, so it was cold everywhere except under the covers.She put her phone aside, then quickly stuffed her hands back into the covers."The doctor did rounds at 8 o'clock. Should we go
Although those people didn't dare say anything openly, Charlotte knew what they were thinking in their hearts.A wedding definitely didn't prove anything, but it did make some people realize that Leandro wasn't someone she wanted to cling to, or just wanted to disgust Marcus with.She actually liked him too, and wanted to marry him.Her wedding with Leandro was a big deal, if it's postponed now, who knows what the public will say.Charlotte used to not care about what people said, but when she thought about Leandro being set up, she couldn't handle it."I don't want you to always be talked about."Leandro picked her up, along with the blanket, and said, "Who dares to say me?"He helped her push aside the hair falling down by her ears and said, "Who else dares to say that about me except Mrs. Romero?"Charlotte looked at him and said seriously, "Sir Romero."Leandro rarely smiled: "Mrs. Romero was right."He pulled her into his arms, leaned down and kissed her on the face, "Don't worry
Leandro hung up the phone and turned around to find Charlotte already lying in bed.The black eyes flickered, "Tired?"Charlotte looked at him and blinked, "Tired."She yawned as she spoke.Leandro raised his lips and said, "There's something I need to discuss with Mrs. Romero.""Huh?"Charlotte was about to get up from the bed when Leandro raised his hand to stop her, saying, "Don't get up, you might catch a cold."She had to lie back down again, turned on her side, "What's up?""Do you remember our wedding?"He said that, and then Charlotte remembered about it.Last year, Leandro had everything arranged already. He was planning to have the wedding ceremony in April this year, but didn't expect that something like that would happen during the New Year festival.It's already March now, Charlotte has actually recovered quite well. Just now Melvin called and said the wedding dress has been airmailed to Aelburn, it will be delivered to Aelmere in a few days.On the wedding planning side,
Although he knew she was changing the subject, Leandro still listened to her and took out the gifts from the suitcase.In the past, whenever he went on a business trip, he would bring Charlotte her favorite mango candies. Now, he has collected almost all flavors of mango candies. This time, he couldn't find any that Charlotte hadn't tried before. In addition to the mango candies, Leandro also brought back a piece of jewelry as a business trip gift.Charlotte gave him a look and said, "Isn't it just sugar?""Who said that?"He smiled and sat down beside her, holding her, "Do you like it?"Charlotte moved in his arms, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and then opened the jewelry box.The jewelry box opened, and inside were a pair of pearl earrings. The pearls weren't very big, but you could tell they were of good quality.Charlotte rarely wears earrings, but these pearl drops are quite versatile. She can wear them for future performances.She touched her earlobe, put on the earri
