Leandro looked at Charlotte, whose face and neck were flushed red, a hint of amusement floating in his dark eyes.
Charlotte was looking down, contemplating the feasibility of living on another planet, naturally, she couldn't see the twinkling laughter in those dark eyes.
The awkward and inexplicably ambiguous atmosphere lasted for about half a minute. After Charlotte had mentally prepared herself, she finally lifted her head and looked back at Leandro, "I'm sorry, Mr. Romero, I didn't expect that my sleepwalking would do such a thing..."
"I knew the damage had already been done, and no amount of apologies from me would make a difference. So, tell me a solution that you think would make you feel better. As long as it's not illegal, I can agree to it."
Who wouldn't be angry if they were suddenly woken up in the middle of the night by a person of the opposite sex who started biting their ear and kissing their collarbone?
Leandro didn't beat her up las
Charlotte hadn't expected Elizabeth to be so sensitive, she felt guilty and didn't dare to reply to Elizabeth's messages anymore.She sat on the bed, trying hard to recall how she had ended up in Leandro's room the night before.She didn't seem to sleep very well last night, she had many dreams, some of which were even dreams within dreams.Looking back now, it seemed like she had dreamt of passionately kissing Leandro!Was it a dream that was dreamed?She didn't kiss Leandro while holding him last night, did she?The more Charlotte thought about it, the more scared she became. She didn't even know she was such a fierce woman!Forget it, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.Let this matter be in the past!Having relieved herself for a while, Charlotte's stomach issued a dissatisfied protest.She glanced down at her shriveled stomach and couldn't help but sigh.There was nothing I could do even
It seemed that Leandro had gone to the study. She had just seen him enter the study when she was going upstairs earlier.Charlotte walked straight to the study and knocked on the door, "Mr. Romero, are you in there?"The door wasn't shut tightly. She only knocked twice and the door opened a bit inward.Charlotte was afraid of seeing something she shouldn't, and was about to close the door by pulling the handle. However, just as her hand touched the handle, a force pulled it inward.The next second, the door was pulled open, she was led inside, her foot slipped, she lost her balance, and she fell directly onto Leandro's chest.She awkwardly lifted her head, just in time to meet the man's lowered gaze. Her eyes collided directly into his deep black pupils. Charlotte awkwardly stepped back, "Mr. Romero."Leandro took in the embarrassment on her face, his gaze sweeping over her reddened ear tips, his eyebrows and eyes slightly moving, "Sleepwalk
Charlotte was typically one to take the easy way out, no matter what kind of game Daisy was playing. But her gaze was simply irresistible to her."May I take a look then?"Leandro didn't speak, Charlotte took it as his consent.With a happy face, Daisy picked up the gift box and handed it to Charlotte.Charlotte took the box, unwrapped the ribbon, and upon opening it, found another small gift box inside.Where was the Russian nesting doll?Was Daisy waiting for her here?Charlotte paused in her actions, subconsciously looking up at Daisy, who still had that hopeful look in her eyes.Leandro was right here, Daisy wouldn't really make a move on her in front of Leandro, would she?With that thought, Charlotte immediately picked up the small gift box. Upon opening it, she found that there was only a piece of paper inside.To be precise, it was a shopping voucher.To be more precise, it was a purchase receipt fo
Daisy paused for a moment, then quickly pulled out a check from her bag, directly filling it out for five million, and immediately handed it to Charlotte: "Money is a good thing, Ms. Bernard really has taste!"Charlotte looked at the five-million-dollar check, not knowing how things had gotten to this point.Seeing that she didn't accept, Daisy immediately misunderstood, "Is it because the money is too little?"Leandro, who was standing aside, had the audacity to say, "Do you think my wife would lack this five million?"For the first time, Daisy felt that Leandro was right. She nodded, "Indeed, how about that ten million? No, no, that's still not enough. How about thirty million? My pocket money is a bit short this year..."In the end, Daisy was somewhat embarrassed.She filled out a new check for thirty million and stuffed it directly into Charlotte's hand, "Don't despise it, Mrs. Romero! I received a bonus at the end of the year, I'll give
Leandro was clearly taken aback, his dark eyes flickering slightly before his deep gaze fell directly onto her face, "Dating?"Charlotte's face was flushed red, standing there, her scalp tingling with embarrassment, so much so that it felt like she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment from it.She quickly raised her hand and slapped her own mouth twice, "I was just joking, trying to lighten the serious atmosphere, right? Ahahaha, wasn't it funny?"So embarrassing!She really wanted to escape!Fortunately, at that moment, Leandro's phone rang.Before he could speak, Charlotte took the initiative to tactfully say, "I just remembered something," and turned to run upstairs.Returning to the room, Charlotte plunged her head into the pillow.Thinking of the nonsense I had just spouted, I wished I could sew my own mouth shut.She rolled over twice in bed, recalling Daisy's check for thirty million.Charlotte picked up
Without hesitation for even two seconds, Charlotte quickly accepted the friend request.However, after the other party added the friend, they didn't say anything at all. The friend page of the two was completely blank, with only one sentence, "You have added the note, you can start chatting now."Charlotte raised an eyebrow, wondering what Daisy had up her sleeve for her. Before she could figure out what Daisy might do to her, Elizabeth suddenly threw over a screenshot: [Screenshot.JPG] What drama is Ms. Clements singing this time?Charlotte clicked on the screenshot and found out that Daisy had actually posted a thank you statement on Twitter, and even tagged her Twitter.Daisy, Chloe's daughter, was always active on Twitter and had quite a few fans. She was known as Princess Chloe.Her Twitter was mostly trending by default most of the time.This time was no exception.Daisy's Twitter had only been posted for two hours, and it was a
Meanwhile, the "Aelmere Handsome 4" Line group on Leandro's phone had blown up.Aidan: What's going on, Daisy? Why is the whole internet thanking your wife? @LeandroMichael: I heard that the person Daisy actually likes is your wife... @LeandroNathan: Your 'unparalleled' pales in comparison to Daisy's universal gratitude, Leandro.Aidan: @Leandro, Daisy made such a big fuss just to say thanks, it's really hard not to doubt her true intentions towards Charlotte!Aidan: @Leandro, how were you feeling at that moment, Leandro?What was the feeling?Ha.Leandro immediately tossed his phone aside, got up from the master bedroom, walked to the guest room door, and knocked.Charlotte was in a daze when she suddenly heard a knock at the door. She lifted her head and blankly stared for two seconds before regaining a bit of her senses and got up to open the door.The person standing at the door, unsurprisingly, was Leandro,
Daisy's actions not only baffled people in the circle but also inadvertently slapped Marissa and Marco in the face.The rumors of the union between the Romero family and the Clements family had already started circulating five years ago.Daisy returned to her country last year, and the Romero family and the Clements family even sat down together for a meal.It was not until this year that Leandro suddenly married Charlotte, that the matter of the alliance gradually subsided.But last night, Marissa took Daisy to the Welllyn Group's party, the meaning of which couldn't have been more obvious.Although Charlotte and Leandro had obtained their marriage certificate, they had never held a wedding ceremony. Whenever Marissa socialized, she always conveyed Marco's dissatisfaction with Charlotte, his daughter-in-law.With all these pieces of news linked together, everyone felt that Leandro and Charlotte were bound to divorce sooner or later, and Dai
Charlotte felt that there was something missing from the tie in her hand. She put it back and picked another one, then walked back to the suit and compared it again.However, doing it this way, the effect was slightly worse. She simply put on the tie and took two steps back, intending to see the result.I took a step back unwillingly, only to collide with the man's solid chest.Charlotte was startled for a moment and instinctively turned around, "Mr. Romero, I'm sorry!"She lowered her head and looked at her foot that she had accidentally stepped on, "I didn't notice you."She lifted her head again and looked at Leandro's face, cautiously asking, "Did I not step on you?""No."His black eyes glanced at her, and Leandro withdrew his hand that was resting on her shoulder, "Choosing a tie?"Charlotte frowned and said, "My taste in aesthetics might not be very good.""Who said that?"She didn't react immediately, "Huh
Upon hearing this, Joyce hastened her movements. "Almost done, ma'am. Just wait for another five minutes!""It's okay, I was just asking."Poor Joyce, she really couldn't find any other excuses to run away.After clarifying her thoughts, Charlotte began to make an effort to restrain her feelings for Leandro.At least, at least don't always stare at others infatuatedly!It's just liking someone, it's hard to control.Charlotte tried hard for several days, but the results were very poor.Especially after realizing that she had developed feelings for Leandro, she no longer felt as comfortable around him as she used to.Several times, she couldn't bear it anymore and just made excuses to run away.Just when Charlotte was suffering in this "sweet infatuation," finally came some good news: "Mr. Romero was going on a business trip!"I have been on a business trip for quite a while, seven days to be exact!Finally,
Elizabeth's suggestion can't be said to be completely absurd, but it can't be said to be reasonable either.Charlotte understood her friend's good intentions, but she personally wanted more.Although it is said that women pursue men through a veil, it is also possible that there is a mountain between them.Moreover, she had initially used a car accident to threaten Leandro into marrying her, forcing him to get involved. Now, although they have a cooperative relationship, she has other intentions.If Leandro knew that she was interested, would he think she was despicable?She... didn't want to be seen that way in his eyes!Even if you want to pursue, at least wait until the contract ends, right?Charlotte made a decision and kept all her thoughts to herself.Joyce came up and called her to have lunch. Charlotte was embarrassed, she didn't expect that she had been tangled up all morning, for over three hours, and hadn't done anyt
"Is that so?"Leandro took out a wet tissue and carefully wiped his hands.Charlotte heard these words, and her hands trembled beneath her. "Yes, yes."She said and chuckled, "Mr. Romero, you go to work, I occasionally have a poor appetite."Leandro looked at her for a moment and said, "Hmm."He did not ask any further and got up from the table.He took two steps and then stopped, turning around to look at Charlotte, who was relieved. "Yesterday afternoon, thank you," he said."No, no need to thank."She was the one who caused more trouble compared to him.Leandro averted his gaze, turned around, and went upstairs.Soon, Charlotte saw him coming down from upstairs, having tied his tie."Safe travels, Mr. Romero."Charlotte raised her hand and waved, Leandro glanced at her and responded faintly with a "Hmm" before leaving.Soon, Charlotte heard the sound of a car engine outside.She purs
How should this question be answered?How could she not be moved?But what was their relationship?They were a fake couple!Charlotte glanced at Leandro and quickly said, "You go eat, I'm tired, I'm going back to sleep, goodnight!"After saying that, she turned around and ran away!In just five or six seconds, a "bang" of the closing door was heard.The man looked at the closed door of the guest room and curved his thin lips, a smile appearing in his dark eyes. "Did your heart skip a beat?"Hmm, that's great.Lying in bed, Charlotte listened to the sound of her rapidly beating heart, grateful that she had run fast, otherwise she would have been done for!Liz said it well, a man like Leandro, no woman could resist being attracted to him.Charlotte couldn't help but sigh, regretting her unwarranted thoughts.Be more dedicated, Charlotte!You are currently cooperating with each other and benefiti
Charlotte sat on the ground for a while, thinking that it had been quite some time since the two of them went down. If they didn't go back up soon, Joyce would probably call the police.It was just the drunk Leandro...Charlotte stood up, leaning on the wine cabinet behind her. She looked down at the man still sitting there and said, "Mr. Romero, shall we go upstairs?"Upon hearing her words, the man lifted his head and looked at her for a moment with his dark eyes, asking, "What are you going up for?"Listen!Is this the kind of question that Leandro would normally ask?"I went upstairs to have a meal."She said, reaching out her hand, and pulled him up.He got up with her help and said, "I had no appetite."Drunk, of course, the appetite was not good!"Did you go up to rest?"He furrowed his brows, pondering her proposal earnestly.After about five seconds, he nodded.Charlotte worried that
Just as she was at a loss, Charlotte suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "I've got it!""Is that so?"I don't know why, but Charlotte felt that every time Leandro said "Is that so?", he didn't believe her.As soon as she heard this sentence, she felt a bit embarrassed and guilty reflexively, "Really, really!""Oh."He responded with a sound, released the hand that had fallen on her back, but the left hand on her back remained unretracted.Charlotte could feel him gently touching her cervical vertebrae, each touch was light, as if he had touched her, yet as if he hadn't."You got drunk twice before, and both times you really enjoyed it when I touched you.""I, I don't remember.""Shall I help you remember?"Charlotte was dumbfounded when she heard what he said.She had no idea how to respond to this statement!How else can this be taken?"Just kidding."Just as she was at a loss, the ma
The sudden eye contact caught Charlotte off guard, leaving her completely bewildered.No, didn't you fall asleep?How can these eyes open as soon as they open?Her mind went blank for a moment, and her ears and face reacted quickly, already turning completely red.Charlotte felt her face burning hot. She looked at Leandro for a while before stammering, "You, you were asleep, weren't you?""No."Couldn't sleep?Didn't Leandro know what she had just done?This realization made Charlotte want to escape, but she couldn't escape!The man's hand was still gripping her wrist, and she tried to struggle, but he held on even tighter.The next second, Charlotte heard the other person ask in a deep voice, "What were you doing just now, Ms. Bernard?"Faced with the questioning of the parties involved, Charlotte's mind went blank. She looked at him in extreme embarrassment and said, "I, I think I was drunk, Mr. Romero."
The wine was not tasty, and the sugar was sweet.Leandro lowered his eyelids, not knowing what he was thinking. Then, he directed his hand towards the bottle opener in his hand and put the unopened bottle of wine back.Last night, he walked back to his previous position, sat down again, and reached out to take a candy from her palm.He unwrapped the candy and raised his hand to throw it into his mouth.The moment the soft candy was touched, a slight sour taste instantly spread on the taste buds, followed by a mouthful of mango flavor.He bit open the soft candy, and the sweetness immediately covered the sour taste from earlier.It was sweet.She was right.However, he was a bit greedy for more.Leandro turned his head and looked at Charlotte, who had been looking at him all along, and said, "Not sweet enough, a little sour.""Ah?"Charlotte was immediately embarrassed, "I'm sorry, the mango candy is a bit s
