Charlotte Bernard's groom ran out of their wedding after receiving a phone call from his childhood sweetheart. Even after witnessing Charlotte have a car accident, he didn't return. Yet, before the news cemented her reputation as the jilted bride-to-be, she posted a picture of her and Leandro Romero's marriage certificate on her social media. Someone said Charlotte was a lucky bastard to have married Leandro, and Charlotte couldn't agree more. But Leandro countered, "To me, it's a dream come true."
View MoreCharlotte didn't know if Leandro had insomnia, but she herself didn't sleep well the whole night.The cell phone alarm rang, Charlotte struggled for a while but resignedly answered the call."Just woke up?"A man's voice came from the other end of the phone. Charlotte listened, finding it somewhat familiar, but for the moment, she couldn't remember who it was."Who were you?""It seems Ms. Bernard really is a busy person. Last time, you mentioned that there might be a part-time job and we could contact you again."Charlotte had just woken up a moment ago, feeling a bit dazed and her mind was somewhat sluggish.But by then, she had already remembered who the person was: "Dangelo?!""Congratulations, Ms. Bernard, you guessed correctly."Charlotte was taken aback, the last bit of sleepiness completely gone, "Is there something you need?""Of course, I was going on tour next month, and the first stop was Aelmere. Ther
Charlotte's breath hitched, she stared at Leandro, "Mr. Romero, I'm sorry..."She said, reaching out to take the phone.Leandro didn't give her a hard time, he simply let go and placed the phone directly in her hand.Charlotte took the phone, her ear burning, and guiltily glanced at Leandro.You didn't see it, did you?The driver ahead was apologizing, saying that a delivery vehicle suddenly rushed out.Leandro didn't say much, "Drive."Larry secretly wiped off his sweat, driving even more cautiously.The carriage fell silent again, and Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief.Leandro didn't react, which meant he didn't see it.Actually, it wasn't a big deal even when she saw it, she didn't say much to Elizabeth, it was all words of praise for him!Ten minutes later, the car drove into the villa.Charlotte and Leandro got out of the car, and the two of them walked side by side from the garage to the livi
Meanwhile.Sitting in the car, Charlotte was reflecting on everything that had just happened, wondering if she had been kicked in the head by a donkey.How did she just - just run straight into Leandro's arms?Thinking back to the moment when she had bumped into Leandro, her heart would still involuntarily quicken at the memory.You were so pathetic, Charlotte!It was just a play, why are you still here blushing like a primary school kid who has never been in love?But he was Leandro, yeah!Right, he was Leandro!The cream of the crop among men!"What were you thinking about?"In the quiet carriage, a male voice suddenly sounded.Charlotte paused for a moment, looked up at the man beside her, and blurted out as usual, "Thinking about the best among men."No sooner had her words fallen than she distinctly saw a strange change in Leandro's facial expression.His dark eyes were fixed on her, and
Leandro's sudden appearance clearly shattered Marcus's "illusion".Of course, he also slapped Tiana and Daisy hard.Daisy had been dissatisfied with Marcus's insistence on staying, but thinking that Charlotte was just showing off, she thought it might not be a bad idea to stay and watch the spectacle.Just a few minutes had passed, and Leandro appeared!The three of them had different thoughts, but Elizabeth was very pleased.She was about to make a sarcastic remark, when a young man in a suit, holding an umbrella, glanced her way, "Hello, are you Miss Elizabeth, a friend of Mrs. Romero?"Elizabeth was somewhat taken aback, staring at the man in front of her. It took her a couple of seconds to nod and say, "Yes, it's me. What's up?""I was Mr. Romero's secretary, Melvin. Mr. Romero sent me to take you home, Ms. Farrell. With such heavy rain, it's hard to get a cab."The man's voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was enough f
"Boo hoo hoo, a talented man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match in terms of social status!""It was enough that my boyfriend was handsome, but he would also come to pick me up whenever it rained. This kind of on-call availability, I was truly envious."Angela walked under Marcus's umbrella amidst the envious gazes and sounds of the crowd.When she hooked up with Marcus, she gave Tiana Flynn a wink.Tiana glanced in Charlotte's direction and spoke up directly, "Mr. Gallagher, Ms. Bernard is also here, won't you give her a ride as well?"Marcus's face changed slightly, he turned around and quickly spotted Charlotte in the crowd."Lottie."He restrainedly shouted.In the crowd, Charlotte, suddenly cued, said: "..."She somewhat regretted stopping Elizabeth from tearing Tiana's mouth.Before Marcus could speak, Angela asked generously, "Ms. Bernard, would you like a ride?""No need, someone came to pick me
With an "I knew it" expression on her face, Elizabeth looked at Charlotte, who was earnestly lecturing and said, "Besides, Leandro is your legitimate husband. What's wrong with you touching him? Even if you kiss him, he can only endure it, right?"Charlotte's face was all red. Elizabeth was right, but saying such things in public was too much for her thin skin. She quickly changed the subject, "You're right! So why would Daisy want to publicly thank me?"Whenever Daisy was mentioned, Elizabeth's attention was diverted: "Speaking of which, this Ms. Clements, is really inscrutable."Charlotte let out a slight sigh of relief.At that moment, the food was served. The two of them were discussing Daisy's incredible actions while also complaining about some envious weirdos in their circle.A meal was enjoyed heartily by two best friends.Charlotte accidentally ate too much and felt a bit uncomfortable in her stomach, "Liz, I think I ate too much."
This had already been the third time Charlotte zoned out.Elizabeth clicked her tongue lightly, sat down directly next to Charlotte, and hooked her arm over her shoulder. "Lottie, what's got you so entranced that you didn't even respond when I called you three times?"Charlotte was suddenly embraced by Elizabeth. Her thoughts immediately flew back. Looking at Elizabeth, she felt a bit guilty, "I was just thinking about something."Elizabeth raised an eyebrow, "What are you thinking about, so engrossed?"What were you thinking about?Of course, it was about the embarrassing incident last night!God knows what got into her last night. After Leandro finished his sentence, she was silent for a while, then suddenly reached out and touched his abs.The scene at that time was extremely awkward. Even now, whenever Charlotte thought about it, she still felt so embarrassed that her scalp tingled and she wished she could just disappear.H
Hearing her words, Leandro suddenly burst into laughter.The man's laughter was deep and rich. Charlotte listened, her face rolling through wave after wave of heat.She hung her head, wishing she could dig a hole right there and bury herself.Leandro laughed for a while before he finally stopped and said, "No need to compensate.""But--"She tore the sofa!A sofa worth over three million!"Feeling guilty?"Charlotte kept nodding. This sofa worth more than three million probably cured her nervous habit of constantly picking at her fingers!After all, not everyone was as kind and generous as Leandro!Ah, Leandro was such a good man!Leandro looked at her thoughtfully, "Do you know how to massage?"Charlotte didn't understand, but still sincerely replied, "A little."Greyson had a problem with migraines, she learned some massage techniques and would massage him whenever she had time."I di
"Is there something wrong?"Leandro pulled on a bathrobe, covering his eight-pack abs, but the wide neckline was a bit low.Charlotte struggled to regain her composure, pretending to look at him nonchalantly, "I just received a call, it was from your father's secretary.""What was said?"Leandro turned and walked into the room, Charlotte hesitated for a moment but had no choice but to follow him in."...said your father wanted to see me, at half past twelve tomorrow noon at Beachmarsh Restaurant.""Don't mind him."Charlotte nodded, "Actually, I didn't really want to see him either.""Mm-hmm."Leandro responded, "Do you need a follow-up for your leg?""Yes, the follow-up appointment was tomorrow.""In the morning?""Um, the morning call."Leandro furrowed his brows, "Call me after your follow-up appointment, I'll come to pick you up."He had a meeting in the morning, which he couldn't c
"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 "...
