Forget it.
Leandro probably doesn't remember what happened that night. Mr. Romero, being a busy person, considered that little incident of that evening as insignificant in his prosperous life.
This photo was indeed beautiful, and it also matched Leandro's style quite well.
If the protagonist in the photo was her, Charlotte thought it would be even better.
Charlotte thought and thought, and decided not to break the ice, so as to avoid any awkwardness between them.
In case she simply thought the photo looked nice and used it as a screensaver, her rush to claim it would seem too "calculating".
Forget it.
Charlotte realized that she had acted impulsively and quickly tried to make up for it, "Actually, if you look closely, this photo has a lot of artistic appeal. It would indeed make a great screensaver."
She looked at herself in the photo, her face burning hot. In order to not give herself away, she had to pretend to be calm and sa
Last night, Charlotte ran away again.When Charlotte mentioned this to Elizabeth, she blushed uncontrollably again and said, "Liz, I feel like if things continue like this, I'll be doomed sooner or later!"Elizabeth: "Don't be a coward, Lottie! You two are legally married now, just go for it boldly!"Charlotte touched her flushed cheek and said, "No, we had a contract!"Elizabeth: "Tsk tsk tsk, when it comes to relationships, even contracts can be nullified! As long as you truly like him, just go for it! What's there to be afraid of! At worst, you can still enjoy a few freebies, right? A man like Leandro, you won't lose out, right?"Charlotte: "..."She knew it!Elizabeth's mind was filled with nothing but yellow waste!Elizabeth sent many more messages afterwards, but all of them were similar.Charlotte felt too embarrassed to reply. Was that something a single woman could say?It's outrageous!She took he
"Are you threatening me?"Marco had lived for most of his life, and it was the first time he had encountered someone daring enough to threaten him!Charlotte felt innocent. "How did I threaten you? Isn't trust the most important thing between spouses? Leandro will definitely know about you coming to see me today.""He would definitely ask me what you said today if he found out, so of course I would tell him the truth, right?"Charlotte paused for a moment and said, "Or should I say, do you always speak in a secretive manner with your wife?"This almost made Marco furious, even his assistant Rene Snyder on the side wanted to speak up and reprimand Charlotte.At this moment, however, there came a noise from the entrance hall.Several people in the living room instinctively looked towards the entrance, where Leandro, dressed in a black suit, appeared with a serious expression on his face.Upon seeing Leandro, Charlotte instinctive
After Marco left, the atmosphere inside the villa remained strange. Even Joyce, with tact, hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to come out to inquire about lunch matters.Charlotte glanced at Leandro, who had been sitting on the sofa for quite some time, and tentatively asked, "Are you not busy today?"Upon hearing her words, Leandro slowly opened his eyes and said, "Are you busy?"In fact, he paused the meeting halfway and rushed back."I was not busy."The two people sat here in an awkward manner.Seeing him raise his hand to rub his temples, Charlotte suddenly thought of something. "Do you have a headache?"Leandro looked up at her and said, "Hmm.""Shall I give you a massage then?"Sitting idle is just sitting idle, it's better to find something to do."Thank you."Charlotte got up and walked over to the sofa behind him, raising her hand to give him a massage.The atmosphere had improved a lot, an
Daisy really made Leandro record it. After finishing, she excitedly took out the invitation and placed it on the table, saying, "Mrs. Romero, I really have no ill intentions towards you! Really!"Charlotte wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but she felt that Daisy's gaze at that moment was a little off.Would it really not be like Elizabeth said?Was Daisy's crush actually her?While I was daydreaming, Daisy had already turned around and left.Charlotte watched her back and wanted to say that she actually didn't want to go, but the other person had already walked out of the hallway and the figure was no longer visible.Daisy ran out of the villa, and before leaving the gate, she thoughtfully helped to close the door.Although it was broad daylight, the front door was wide open, which made it somewhat unsafe.It wouldn't be good if a stranger broke in and scared Charlotte!Distracted by Daisy's interruption, Charlotte had
Leandro ultimately did not throw away the invitation card. He did not stop Charlotte from attending Daisy's birthday party, but the condition was that he would accompany her that evening.Charlotte had no objections to this, after all, Daisy's attitude towards her did make her a little worried.Well, there's nothing I can do about it. That's just how it is when you're so good-looking.And Daisy?Worried that Charlotte might not show up that day, I specifically arranged for a courier in the morning to remind Charlotte to remember to attend her birthday party in the evening.Charlotte opened the door early in the morning and listened to the runner's words, "..."It's outrageous!Charlotte had just closed the door when she saw the man, who was already dressed and ready to go to work, walking out with a briefcase."Who?"Upon hearing his voice, Charlotte averted her gaze from those long legs and said, "He's a runner."
Melvin followed closely behind Leandro, not daring to make a sound, afraid of being affected.Leandro suddenly stopped and called out Melvin's name.Melvin was stunned, holding the documents and approaching, "Mr. Romero?""Daisy, it's your birthday tonight. Prepare a gift and place it on my desk two hours later."Melvin was prepared to be scolded, but he was surprised when Leandro spoke and asked him to prepare Daisy's birthday gift.For a moment, he was a bit slow to react and asked a foolish question, "Mr. Romero, should we let the lady know about this matter?"I regretted asking Melvin.Don't even mention that Leandro would never do such morally corrupt things. Even if Leandro really did it, as his secretary, I should turn a blind eye to it!Leandro heard his words and stared straight at him with his dark eyes, saying, "What do you think, Melvin?"Melvin was completely dumbfounded. How was he supposed to answer such a
Leandro seemed to realize that he had done something wrong. "This is... fake eyelashes?"He furrowed his brow, as if his cognition had been shaken.Charlotte awkwardly pinched off the fake eyelashes and said, "No, it's dirty stuff! Mr. Romero, I'm going in to change clothes! Wait for me for five minutes, oh no, ten minutes!"Charlotte finished speaking in one breath and then turned around to close the door.She lowered her head and looked at the false eyelashes pinched between her fingertips, her face becoming even redder.She didn't want to wear false eyelashes anymore in the future!After such an embarrassing incident, Charlotte didn't have the mood to bother herself anymore.Anyway, it wasn't a big party, so she just needed to put on some makeup.After finishing her makeup, she changed into the small dress she had already picked out, and then chose a pair of pearl earrings to wear. Finally, she checked her appearance one mor
Leandro pulled Charlotte closer to him, avoiding Daisy's embrace.Charlotte didn't expect Daisy to be so enthusiastic. She wanted to hug people as soon as they met.Are the daughters of wealthy families so enthusiastic now?Obviously, it was not.Well, Ms. Clements was quite disgusted with Leandro next to her.Charlotte, however, was not very happy. She had previously mentioned that something was not right with Daisy, but it was just talk. Now, she actually had some doubts about whether Daisy had ulterior motives towards her.Leandro had a cold face and said, "I came with my wife."Charlotte heard what he said and quickly handed over the gift in her hand, easing the slightly awkward atmosphere at the moment. "Ms. Clements, happy birthday. I don't know what you like, so this is just a random gift I prepared."You see, I was so casual, so you can be a little casual too, Ms. Clements.However, things didn't go as planned. W
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
