Leandro quickly returned with a black card. Charlotte immediately logged into the mobile banking app on her phone and filled out all the information, only to be told in the end that for large transfers, she had to personally go to the counter to operate.
Charlotte glanced at Leandro, "Large transfers need to be done at the counter, can I take a picture?"
"Take the card, the password is my birthday. Use it to book formal wear for parties, and you can also use it when shopping with friends."
So, this card was exclusively for her use in the future, right?
Then what was the significance of her transferring one hundred million into this card?
"There were quite a few occasions I had to attend and quite a few formal suits you needed to order. This is what you should have taken."
He glanced at her and added another sentence.
What he said made sense, but Charlotte found herself unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.
Leandro had said
The sunlight was behind him, and as Leandro walked in, his face also stepped into the slightly darker shadows of the room."Good afternoon, Mr. Romero."The entrance hall of the villa had been treated with transparency. Just now, Leandro had walked in from there, the sunlight hitting his face. Although his brows and eyes were cold, they didn't feel gloomy.But as he walked through the foyer and into the room towards her, the slightly dim light seemed to make him suddenly feel colder.The person walked in, and the coldness in his eyes and brows lessened considerably.Charlotte only felt a flash before her eyes, and then saw a stack of documents placed in front of her: "Melvin organized it, my hobbies and some things to avoid."Charlotte paused for a moment, recalling the conversation at noon, and quickly reached out to take it: "Oh, oh, oh."When she got hold of that stack of documents, Charlotte was somewhat incredulous.Did Le
When Leandro casually mentioned the pool to her just now, Charlotte thought it was right outside the restaurant. However, when she stepped out, she was met with a large lawn covered with golf equipment.There was no swimming pool here either!However, there was still a cobblestone path on the left side, and the right side led to the main gate. Charlotte guessed that the pool should be on the left.She had walked along that path for a while, past a cluster of flowers, before she saw the swimming pool Leandro had mentioned.The swimming pool was open-air, with coconut trees planted on both sides, four in a row. Under the trees, there were sun umbrellas and sun loungers. Near the side of the villa, there was a small room, inside which was a long table with a wooden color and white cushions, along with matching benches.When Charlotte walked past, Leandro was swimming in the pool.Under the sunlight, the man's robust figure was attractive, with
"What was the problem?"Leandro had finished reading, he lifted his head and glanced at Charlotte.Charlotte was utterly baffled, looking at his calm demeanor, she even started to doubt if she was the one who had a problem.She raised her hand and pointed at the content on the paper, "After reading this entire page, don't you think you can summarize the content in one sentence?""Hmm?""You hated women."The man's gaze moved from her face to her index finger pressing on the paper, finally resting on the paper itself: "I don't hate women."Who would believe this...Charlotte was complaining inwardly, but she could only wear a smile on her face, pretending to be confused: "But, it seems like each one is saying, as long as women don't get close to you, it's fine.""Oh, that might have been a misunderstanding on your part."Leandro stepped back, and the already loose bathrobe instantly opened up on his chest, revealin
"Because you were Mrs. Romero."After a pause, Leandro spoke again.Charlotte's face turned bright red. She was embarrassed to admit that she had just accidentally indulged in a bit of narcissism."Next time, if there's anything you don't understand, just ask directly. There's no need to keep guessing on your own."After speaking, he lifted his leg and left.Charlotte watched his retreating figure, propping her chin, gazing at the orange-red sunset in the distance, falling into a new confusion.Was Leandro angry again?How did I offend him?Was this man a bit too quick to anger?Of course, these questions were destined to have no answers.Whether Leandro was angry or not that day, Charlotte could never get a definitive answer.Living with Leandro wasn't as terrible as Charlotte had imagined, and she also understood why the Splendid Group was able to reach new heights under Leandro's leadership.When
There were quite a few dresses in the wardrobe that Charlotte usually felt embarrassed to touch, after all, each one of them looked expensive.Charlotte had chosen a white, waist-cinching midi dress with three-quarter sleeves. The dress was a new summer release from Brand A, featuring a faux belt design around the waist. The belt was adorned with floating camellia embroidery, making her waist look even smaller and more delicate.The hem of the skirt only reached the ankles, embroidered with gold thread. Besides one layer of lining, there were two more layers on the outside of the skirt. The gold thread on the outermost layer and the hem of the second layer were arranged in a pleasing manner. When the skirt fluttered, it seemed like a blooming golden rose.The round collar design of the upper garment made Charlotte's neck look slender.She also picked out a diamond pendant necklace from her jewelry box. The diamond embedded in the pendant was not very larg
Leandro watched her for a moment, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he responded in a deep voice: "Yes, very beautiful."After speaking, the man averted his gaze, raising his hand to touch the top button of his shirt. His dark eyes grew even darker.Did the little rabbit wrap himself up so beautifully because he was afraid that his self-control was too good?Tsk, I really wanted to unwrap the "package" myself.The car slowly started moving, and Charlotte also breathed a sigh of relief.This was her first time meeting Leandro's parents. Although she wasn't his real wife, she still bore the title, which made her increasingly nervous the more she thought about it.The carriage was very quiet, and the occasional scent of wood that drifted by reminded her of Leandro's presence in the carriage.Charlotte turned her head and saw Leandro pretending to sleep. She gave up on her curiosity and had no choice but to take out her phone to googl
Charlotte had stolen a glance at Leandro, not expecting the man to be looking at her as well.The eyes of Sen Han, which were just cold, were indifferent at this moment, but they had lost some of their chill.Leandro looked at the person beside him like a curious cat, couldn't help but press the palm of her hand with his fingertip, and dropped a sentence lightly in her ear: "Don't be afraid, you are Mrs. Romero."Charlotte wasn't exactly scared, but she was truly nervous.That day, all she met was Leandro's stepmother, and there was no one else around. Leandro and his stepmother had always been at odds, so she didn't need to put on a pleasant face for that stepmother. It was too satisfying to act aloof and weird.But today was different, apart from Leandro's stepmother, there was also Leandro's biological father.She was his own flesh and blood, and even if she was stubborn, she knew better than to casually provoke the father-son relationshi
Acting, acting, it's all acting!Charlotte took a slight breath, comforting herself.Leandro, standing to the side, watched with a fleeting hint of amusement in his dark eyes. However, when his gaze met Marco's, all that was left in his eyes was coldness: "I was indeed worried that she might get lost.""You--"Marco gritted his teeth, but in the end, he managed to hold back his outburst.The grandeur of the Romero family was evident everywhere, even the dining table was clearly not ordinary.Although the Bernard family didn't have such a background, Charlotte, having been around with her teacher, had seen a bit of the world. She knew that in the Romero's house, even a casually placed decorative vase could be worth millions.The wealthier the family, the more rules they had. Although it wasn't as exaggerated as saying one couldn't talk while eating, individual manners were still easily noticeable during meals.Charlotte, afraid
After washing her face, she also calmed down. After calming down, she was still quite scared.Will she be fired from the company that her left foot entered first tomorrow?Upon further consideration, if she was fired, then she was fired. She is not just a decorative vase without any abilities. She would still thrive if she switched companies.But the company had good benefits, the colleagues were nice, and the department head was just a bit nagging, but had a good heart...She had a complex mood, feeling a little excited and a little scared.After venting, Elizabeth felt too embarrassed to go back. She glanced at her colleague and said, "I'm going home, please let the minister know for me."This thing was quite messed up tonight. Elizabeth's colleague didn't know what to say: "Alright, just let me know when you get home."Elizabeth nodded her head absentmindedly and left the bathroom in a daze.She didn't notice someone in fron
Charlotte realized about Marco's birthday only after she had taken a shower. Compared to the return of her uncle and aunt, Leandro's father's birthday was more imminent.More than three months had passed, and she recalled the last time she met Marco. Until now, Charlotte still felt embarrassed.She used to be a true warrior, whatever Marco said, she would confront it.However, she had never thought about getting involved with Leandro for real at that time, so she naturally wouldn't prefer to be wronged and still put on a good face for his father and stepmother.Now, she is fine. She went from being Mrs. Romero in the contract to being the real Mrs. Romero.Charlotte glanced towards the bathroom and instinctively grabbed her phone to find Elizabeth: "Liz, Liz! Leandro's father's birthday is next week, what should I do? I'm waiting online, it's quite urgent!"Elizabeth also didn't know where she went, and rarely did not reply to her messages i
Charlotte was taken aback for a moment, and if Greyson hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about Marcus.When the news of Marcus eloping broke out, her uncle and aunt were furious and said they would bring back her eldest cousin to help her deal with the situation.Charlotte didn't want her two cousins to get involved in all this mess, and she almost tried everything to convince her aunt and uncle to let her handle it herself.Back then, they were in Havigsaq, out of reach. She playfully and cutely assured that she could handle it, and they had no choice but to nod and agree.Now that they are coming back, they naturally want to hold the Gallagher family accountable.Just this bad debt, it wasn't so easy to calculate.Charlotte was puzzled: "It shouldn't, right?"Greyson looked at her and said, "Your uncle and aunt doted on you a lot, and you know it."Charlotte thought about her aunt's personality and also kne
Charlotte drove to the hospital after she finished breakfast.The hospital was crowded during the day, and she had a hard time finding a parking space for her car.The ward that Greyson moved into yesterday was still empty, with only him inside.When Charlotte entered, Jaylen brought soup over and upon seeing her, said, "Ms. Bernard."Jaylen hadn't seen Charlotte for a while, and couldn't help but look at her. He saw that she looked good and hadn't lost weight, so he asked her with relief if she wanted to have some soup.Charlotte had just finished breakfast and couldn't drink the soup at that time. "No need, Jaylen."Seeing her coming, both Jaylen and Orion tactfully found excuses to leave the ward, leaving the space for the father and daughter.Charlotte looked at Greyson on the sickbed and thought about her dream from last night, and her chest started to feel tight again.She walked over to the chair next to the hospital bed
Leandro held her with one hand and looked down at her, asking, "Are you tired?"She was almost always standing in the hospital.Charlotte shook her head, "Not tired."Saying that, he yawned.She was a little embarrassed and said, "I was just a little tired."I was indeed tired.Charlotte used to go to bed around 10 o'clock at night, playing on her phone for a while. She would usually fall asleep before 10:30.At this time, it was already one thirty in the morning.Leandro put the car keys into his pocket and then bent down to pick her up.Charlotte was startled for a moment, then quickly hooked her arm around his neck.Leandro held her and quickly went upstairs to the master bedroom.The bedsheet on the bed was messy, revealing the battle before the two people left.Charlotte was put on the bed, her face was a little hot.Leandro took off his watch, lowered his head and kissed her: "Change int
Charlotte just cried, her tears dried up, feeling a bit uncomfortable on her face.Now Greyson woke up and lay on the hospital bed, staring at her.She didn't think she looked good, so she found an excuse to say she needed to go to the bathroom, and then went into the bathroom to wash her face.Cold water splashed onto her face, and this time, she was incredibly grateful.Looking at herself in the mirror, Charlotte closed her eyes and calmed down. She then opened her eyes again, and the redness in her eyes had already faded a lot.She smiled at herself in the mirror and then walked out of the bathroom.Charlotte walked out of the bathroom and saw Leandro, who had come back with oatmeal. He was chatting with Greyson, and she walked over to Leandro's side.Greyson was not feeling well and would wake up for half an hour before falling asleep again.Orion had to stay overnight and was unwilling to go back to the Bernard's villa.
Leandro said and then turned around and left the ward. Inside the ward, there were Orion and Charlotte, along with Greyson who was still unconscious lying on the bed.Charlotte looked at Greyson lying on the hospital bed, and she couldn't imagine what would have happened if, after the doors of the emergency room opened, the doctor had told her that he hadn't been saved. She would have been devastated.Her mother passed away when she was too young to remember, and Greyson raised her single-handedly.When she was very young, she had asked Greyson countless times why other children had mothers, but she didn't.Greyson would always tell her that because her mother had gone to heaven early, she would help buy her favorite toys and when she goes there in the future, she can have a house full of beloved toys.She later grew up a bit and then she found out that her mother was no longer in this world.She gradually stopped asking about her mother, bu
Charlotte had actually calmed down a lot, it was just because of fear that her fingers became cold.Leandro's warm palm conveyed strength, making her less overwhelmed.The hospital at night is much quieter than during the day, except for the emergency department, all other departments have already closed.Greyson was taken to the hospital by an ambulance, and Leandro immediately knew that he was being treated in the emergency room.He led Charlotte towards the emergency room, following the nurse's instructions just now.The two of them had not reached the entrance of the emergency room when Charlotte saw the butler Orion.Greyson suddenly fainted, and it was Jaylen at home who first noticed.Fortunately, Orion reacted quickly and immediately called an ambulance. Greyson was quickly taken to Cliff Hospital for treatment."Orion.""Ms. Bernard, Mr. Romero."Orion saw Charlotte, which could be considered finding the
The man's kiss initially only stayed on her lips, but slowly he became unsatisfied with just the lips.Charlotte felt hot all over her body, and the itchiness spread from her lips down her neck, finally invading her chest.In the room, almost all there was the sound of her and Leandro's breathing.Leandro kissed her and asked in a low, husky voice, "Mrs. Romero, would you like to do something you love?"The voice was deep and sexy, like a grain of sand falling into her heart, grinding her to the point of unbearable.She was like a fish pulled ashore, lacking water and oxygen. The instinct to survive made her open her mouth to breathe, and her mind was all jumbled up, unable to think at all.The unbearable pain in her body made her unable to help but hum, and this sound directly broke Leandro's last sanity.He had been enduring since the afternoon, and couldn't bear it any longer.The air conditioning in the room was turned up h
