After posting, Charlotte read the comments and enjoyed the breakfast.She felt happy to see those bad comments about Lydia.Suddenly, she understood why Lydia liked to make a fuss online.Although those people were strangers, it was pleasant to know some people scolded someone whom she hated.She regretted not having responded online before.Charlotte's response trended within half an hour.Another topic "reasonable escape from the wedding" was right behind "Charlotte's response", making it easy for people to understand the whole story.Meanwhile, Marcus got a call from Terry and heard of the news."Suppress the news!"Terry could feel his anger. But 10 minutes later, Marcus got another call from Terry.Terry said carefully on the phone, "Mr. Gallagher, I can't make it..."Marcus's face darkened. He took his coat directly and walked to the garage. "What do you mean?""I was told the news wouldn't be suppressed."Even the Gallagher family couldn't make it. Apparently, someone was behin
Charlotte finished breakfast and planned to practice playing the piano. When she was about to leave her room, she got messages from Elizabeth, "Damn! How dare she deny it?"Elizabeth sounded mad in the voice message. Charlotte raised her brow. "I'll check it."Charlotte pushed the wheelchair back and updated the page.Soon, she saw Lydia's response.Lydia posted, "Sorry!"I didn't realize my silly behaviors made you misunderstand us! Marcus and I have never gone across the line. But I feel really sorry that I have done so many things that misled you. I am sorry that I suddenly showed up at the meal between your families. I didn't think much. I just didn't want your relationship to be ruined by me. I offered to kneel and plead. Charlotte never asked me to do so! I am so sorry for my mistakes!"I'll apologize to Charlotte in person. Please don't spread the news and hurt Marcus and Charlotte!"I'll try my best to hold the video releaser responsible!""Finally, about what @Llliz had said,
Charlotte's response was direct and sharp. As soon as the recording was released, Lydia's mask was immediately torn off. Even those who had some sympathy for her dared not speak up anymore after hearing the recording."Ms. Bernard is amazing! Ms. Wagner deserves it.""It's such a refreshing start to the day! Thank you for setting the standard for entertainment industry scandals!""Oh... the truth is revealed so fast! Does Ms. Wagner have anything else to say now?""No way. Is there anyone who hasn't seen through Ms. Wagner's true face? She's a shameless but stupid woman. Even without this recording, her ugly side will be exposed one day, for she likes to be the other woman. Ms. Bernard was probably just too blinded by her love for her ex-boyfriend. But as soon as they broke up, her thinking became clear!"***Charlotte knew that this time, Lydia's reputation was completely ruined. Charlotte didn't believe that Lydia could come up with any more tricks!Elizabeth was so happy even thoug
The online heat didn't really die down until the afternoon. People in the circle all knew that Marcus had given up on Charlotte, his childhood sweetheart of twelve years, for Lydia, a scheming girl.Many people talked behind them and said that Marcus must be blind. Even the wealthy heiress Sylvia Ramsey, who never had a good impression of Charlotte, posted a cryptic message on her social media, showing her support for Charlotte.Elizabeth saw Sylvia's post and couldn't help but feel moved. She screenshotted it and sent it to Charlotte, saying, "Look, Lottie. Even Sylvia feels sorry for you."Sylvia and Charlotte never got along since they were young. Sylvia framed and set up Charlotte many times while they were in school. Like sworn enemies, they did not even bother to maintain false friendships.Elizabeth thought Sylvia was heartless, like a cold-blooded snake.Charlotte had just finished practicing the piano when she saw Elizabeth's screenshot. She signed.Even Sylvia thought it was
For the first time, Marcus felt a little annoyed with Lydia. He didn't want to talk to her, so he pretended that he didn't see her. To his surprise, Lydia stood directly in front of his car."Squeak..."The harsh brake sound caught the attention of everyone around. They all turned to look at the black Mercedes.Marcus looked at Lydia, who was blocking his car, and a kind of anger he had never felt before surged within him.He opened the car door and got off. "Do you want to die?"Lydia looked up, tears streaming down her face. With red eyes, she appeared pitiful."I'm sorry, Marcus. I didn't mean it."In the past, Marcus would have softened his heart seeing her like this, but thinking about what happened online, he felt complicated.Marcus wondered, "Has Lydia changed, or have I misjudged her from the beginning? Is she always like this?"Marcus gazed at Lydia with complicated eyes, and his tone carried a rare touch of impatience. "You said you didn't mean it. Then what about the recor
After living with his daughter for so many years, Greyson couldn't bear to let her go.Charlotte was stunned, and her fair ears slowly turned red when she thought about this. "Everyone knows about my marriage to him. It doesn't seem proper if I don't move there."After all, they had just made a public display of affection. If they lived separately, it would be embarrassing when others found out. Although Charlotte's marriage with Leandro was fake, it was a secret only between them.Leandro asked Charlotte to move there, so there must be a reason.Leandro had done Leandro such a big favor, so it was only right for her to repay him.But Greyson didn't think it was a problem. "Although you have registered your marriage, you haven't had a wedding ceremony yet. It doesn't matter if you don't live together. Others can't say anything."Just as Charlotte was about to say something, Marcus's voice came from downstairs. "Lottie, come down and talk to me. Lottie!"It was late at night, but Marcu
Charlotte asked the maid to carry the wheelchair downstairs. Then she held onto the handrail and jumped down one step at a time.Her legs were almost healed, but the doctor advised her to move less for a faster recovery.Charlotte reached the first floor and got back into the wheelchair. Greyson pushed her out of the villa.Finally, at the sight of Charlotte, Marcus stopped calling out.He had been shouting downstairs for almost ten minutes, and his throat was a little sore. So, his voice was hoarse when he spoke. "Lottie..."Marcus tried to reach out and hug Charlotte. Ever since the wedding, he hadn't touched her again.When they were together before, Marcus didn't like that lovey-dovey way of dating. During the two years they were together, they rarely kissed, and the occasional hug was only because they hadn't seen each other for a long time.Back then, Marcus thought it was fine, but now that their relationship was on the rocks, Marcus realized how extravagant a hug could be.But
Charlotte stared at Marcus in disbelief as she had never thought Marcus would say such things.It seemed that he still believed that she would forgive him and be with him again as long as he said a few sweet things.The gentle and kind young man only existed in her memories. He had changed. Charlotte realized it a long time ago, but she never wanted to accept it.She lowered her eyes and stared at her phone. Finally, she snapped.She dialed Leandro's number. Overwhelmed by anger and disappointment, she only had one thought in mind.She wanted Leandro to come here and take her away.After she listened to the dialing tone for about five seconds, Leandro picked up. "Hello, Mrs. Romero."Hearing his cold and lazy voice, Charlotte clenched her phone tighter. "Honey. Dinner is over. Come over and bring me home.""Honey?"Leandro was sitting lazily in the car before. When he heard the endearment, he sat up straight, his slender fingers touching the top button on his collar. With a small twit
Dangelo watched the two people holding hands and gradually walking away, the color of his eyes under the sunglasses slowly sinking.This Leandro!Jayden, seeing him motionless, felt his heart leap into his throat, "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of being recognized?"Dangelo finally averted his gaze, lifted his leg, and left the coffee shop.He didn't say a word, clearly, he was angry.Jayden frowned, finding it strange.Who on earth provoked this young master?Charlotte was so engrossed in acting that it wasn't until they got into the elevator that she realized she was holding hands with Leandro!They held hands tightly!Realizing this, her face suddenly heated up, "Mr. Romero, your acquaintance, he didn't get on the elevator, did he?"Leandro glanced at her and responded indifferently, "None left."Saying so, he had already voluntarily let go of his hand.The tightly held large hand let go.
Charlotte knew that Leandro must have been waiting for her in the parking lot. As a person like Leandro, who made money by the tens of thousands per second, how dare she let him wait so long!So, after the contract was signed, she hurried to the parking lot as quickly as possible.She walked briskly, intent on getting back as soon as possible, not wanting to waste Leandro's time.Leandro had already come up, unbeknownst to her. It wasn't until someone reached out to grab her that Charlotte smelled the familiar scent of wood. She stopped, surprised, looking at Leandro who had come up at some point: "How are you here?"This question was asked in a strange way as if Leandro couldn't appear here!Charlotte quickly corrected herself, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was, how did you get up here?"Leandro, tall with long legs, wore a black casual outfit that exuded a carefree and unruly vibe. He had already attracted quite a few glances on h
The elevator doors had just opened when Charlotte couldn't get out, colliding with Caroline who had just come out of the adjacent elevator.She didn't notice, said sorry, and then walked away."Lottie?"Caroline shouted, but found that Charlotte hadn't stopped at all!She had no choice but to jog after her, and after much difficulty, she finally caught up with Charlotte. Caroline quickly reached out and tugged at her, "Why are you walking so fast? Is there a wolf chasing you?"There wasn't a wolf, but Leandro had one!"No, I was afraid of being late."Caroline glanced at the time, "We still have ten minutes, what's the rush?"Charlotte looked embarrassed, "Really? I got the time wrong!"Caroline didn't think much about it, "Why did you suddenly take on this job?""Plenty of money, less work, and close to home!"Caroline paused for a moment, thought about it, and realized that Charlotte made a lot of sense!
Leandro placed the picked-out fish meat onto her dish: "Indeed, it's not very high.""...Thank you."The concept of money for the rich was indeed different from hers!"Did you lack money?""No, it wasn't.""Mm-hmm."Leandro glanced at her, "If you're short of money, let me know, I can--lend it to you!""Thank you."There was absolutely no need!The matter had already been reported, next was to sign a contract with Dangelo.Dangelo's agent had already spoken with Caroline. After Charlotte finished lunch, she received a call from Caroline asking her to go out and sign a contract.Charlotte was somewhat surprised, "That fast?""Dangelo said over there that their company was pushing hard."Charlotte didn't think much either, "Oh, oh, oh, okay!"She had originally planned to take a nap, but now she could only change her clothes and go out to sign the contract.With the temperature out
Just when Charlotte thought Leandro was about to kiss her, the warm breath suddenly disappeared.Charlotte subconsciously opened her eyes, her gaze directly colliding with those dark pupils.Leandro had already reined in his energy, looking at her with a smile, "You're right, it's indeed a bit not so good."Charlotte looked at those thin lips, not knowing why, upon hearing his words, she surprisingly felt a bit of regret.The expression on her face was just too obvious. Leandro looked at her, "You seem to regret it?"Charlotte was startled and quickly denied in a series, "I'm not, I didn't, I can't!"The man hooked up his thin lips, his eyes full of deep meaning: "Hmm."Charlotte was really feeling guilty, "I'm going to practice the piano!"Without waiting for a response, she immediately ran upstairs and entered the piano room.Her heart was pounding so fast as if it was about to burst out of her chest at any moment.
Charlotte buried her head, "Could you please leave first, Mr. Romero?"She was clearly a clever person, so why did she act like a dumb penguin whenever she was around Leandro?"If you keep squatting like this, your blood circulation will be affected when you stand up later, and you will feel dizzy."Leandro spoke, pausing for a moment, "And now you're on the stairs, can you guarantee that you won't get dizzy and fall when you get up later? Is face more important or is life more important?""..."Alright, life matters.Charlotte bit her lip, decided to let go completely, released her own hands, looked up at Leandro, and said, "Mr. Romero, don't you think I'm like a stupid penguin?""Not like that."Charlotte secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but this relief didn't last for two seconds before she heard the other person speak again: "Like a stupid rabbit.""..."Alright, she knew it, the "stupid image" she had in f
Leandro had just come in from swimming, his hair still dripping with water. The droplets at the ends of his hair slid down the man's chiseled cheeks and finally dropped to the ground.He was wearing a bathrobe, but it was draped casually, with the neckline almost open, revealing most of his clearly defined muscles to Charlotte."Have you finished your breakfast?"Charlotte quickly averted her gaze, "Just finished eating."Damn!No comparison, no harm!Lived under the same roof!She didn't finish her breakfast until nine o'clock, by which time Leandro had already gone for a round of exercise and come back!No wonder he had such a good figure, while she couldn't even get a vest line!She was such a noob!Leandro nodded, picking up the bathrobe to wipe his hair.Due to his movement, the bathrobe was lifted, almost exposing his upper body.Charlotte once again clearly saw those eight-pack abs, and all th
Charlotte 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
