"You came back so early today."
"Joyce said you had been swimming for an hour, don't you want to take a break?"
He spoke and bent down, reaching out his hand to her, obviously wanting to pull her up.
Charlotte instinctively placed her hand on top, and as her hand landed in the man's palm, she suddenly remembered a passage from the novel she had read that described the male protagonist:
The pure white shirt was slightly damp, and thin sweat seeped through the shirt, highlighting the already excellent body with an explosive tension.
Charlotte looked up at him and had an idea, "You seem hot, do you want to come down and cool off?"
She wanted to see how his shirt got wet.
Charlotte's face turned red and hot, typical of someone who has a colorful heart but lacks the courage.
Leandro looked down at the person, clearly not understanding her meaning: "Cool down?"
Charlotte had just had a strange idea for a moment, and now she co
"And then?"Leandro understood, but he didn't want to let her go so easily.Charlotte deeply regretted reading that novel, and of course, she regretted even more inexplicably letting Leandro go for a swim.She instinctively reached out to push the person in front of her, but no matter how hard she tried, the person in front of her remained unmoved.Charlotte awkwardly raised her head and said, "I wanted to go ashore."Leandro pursed his lips and said, "I wondered what happened to the main characters afterwards."He smiled and reached out to help Charlotte tuck the wet hair on her cheek behind her ear, saying, "Mrs. Romero, it's not good to stop telling a story halfway."Charlotte listened to his laughter, her head feeling hot, as if she was being roasted over a fire.Even though I was soaking in the water, I still felt extremely hot."I told you as soon as I went up."The man who had always indulged her did not le
As Leandro opened the door, he saw Charlotte squatting on the ground wearing a bathrobe. He thought she had fallen and quickly walked up to her, asking, "Where did you fall?"Charlotte had just crouched down, and her whole body froze.Realizing it, she quickly reached out and picked up her skirt and panties, stuffing them into her arms.She had just picked up the underwear when Leandro came over and asked her where she had fallen.Charlotte's hand trembled as she stuffed the underwear into her skirt. Her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp and she said, "I didn't fall, I'm going to the bathroom to change my clothes."She said it and instinctively stood up.Leandro reached out and protected, "Don't run, you will fall."After he finished speaking, the dark eyes immediately sank.Just now, Charlotte was squatting on the ground, and she only saw a slightly red face of the person wrapped in a white bathrobe.Now she stood u
I swam in the pool for nearly an hour in the afternoon, and then I splashed around with Leandro in it for a while. It was quite exhausting.Charlotte's appetite was much better than usual, she didn't gobble down her food, but she chewed slowly without stopping for a single bite.Leandro had finished eating, leisurely wiping the corners of his mouth, his gaze drifting towards Charlotte, who looked like a squirrel hoarding food across from him. His thin lips slowly curved into a smile.He saw her stop and handed her a cup filled with water.Charlotte was choking a bit and was looking for water. When she saw Leandro handing her water, she quickly took it and drank a big gulp, swallowing the food stuck in her throat. Then she looked at him and said, "I'm done eating."She patted her chest and felt much more comfortable after she had swallowed the food."Choked?"Charlotte was a bit embarrassed, she had eaten too quickly just now and said,
Charlotte was particularly curious about where Leandro would take her. This was the first time Leandro had told her that he would take her out to play.Before she left, she asked Leandro once, and he only said he would know later.She also didn't want to ask again, and she was very excited along the way.Twenty minutes later, the car stopped.Charlotte unbuckled her seatbelt and, upon seeing Leandro get out of the car, she pushed the door open and followed him out of the car.At that moment, Charlotte realized that Leandro had brought her to an auction house.She was a little surprised, "Why did you suddenly come here?"Leandro led her inside while explaining in a low voice, "There was a jewelry auction today."Charlotte still didn't quite understand his meaning, so she could only nod her head and say, "Oh, oh, oh."It was not until she took her seat that she understood the meaning of Leandro bringing her here tonight.
"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 "
Charlotte was severely injured. She was sent to the hospital and underwent an emergency operation for eight hours.But even so, Charlotte was still not out of the woods yet. If she didn't wake up in the next 48 hours, she would never be able to in the future.When Greyson heard this, he almost fainted.Greyson's wife passed away a long time ago, so his baby girl, Charlotte, meant the whole world to him. It was supposed to be Charlotte's big day today, but Marcus ruined it by deserting Charlotte at the wedding.Looking at the Gallaghers, Greyson flew into a rage. "Get lost! All of you, get the hell out of here!"After Greyson drove away the Gallaghers, there was only Charlotte, and her best friend, Elizabeth Buck, in the ward.As Charlotte's bridesmaid, Elizabeth was on standby in the banquet hall the whole time. When Elizabeth realized something was wrong, Charlotte was already carried into an ambulance.Elizabeth couldn't understand how such a joyful wedding turned into an awful disa
When Melvin and Elizabeth reached Charlotte's ward, they happened to see Leandro walk out.Seeing that Leandro was leaving, Melvin immediately followed him.There were a lot of visitors in the hospital at this time, so the elevators were crammed with people.Melvin didn't get a chance to ask questions until he and Leandro got in the car. "Mr. Romero, did Ms. Bernard tell you what she wanted?"Hearing this question, Leandro opened his eyes, tapped the leather seat with his finger, and said, "She did.""Then what do you need me to get for you?" Melvin asked, feeling a bit glad that Charlotte was a straightforward woman.Then, he heard Leandro speaking in the back seat, "A wedding house."Melvin thought he heard it wrong, and he subconsciously turned his face around, staring at Leandro. "Mr. Romero, did you just say 'a wedding house'?"Meanwhile, Melvin thought, 'I'm not that old to lose my hearing, am I?'"Yes," Leandro confirmed it.Then he closed his eyes again and raised his left han
Charlotte hadn't seen Leandro since he came to discuss the compensation last time.As time passed by, Charlotte slowly realized that she really acted like a jerk the other day.So, when Charlotte saw Leandro again, she was embarrassed and guilt-ridden.On the other hand, Greyson wasn't surprised to see Leandro because Leandro was the culprit of the car accident.But Elizabeth didn't overthink it. She thought Leandro was a nice guy and shouldn't be fully responsible for the accident.After Greyson exchanged pleasantries with Leandro, he went to sign the hospital discharge papers, while Elizabeth took Charlotte's medical card to print the test results, leaving Leandro and Charlotte alone in the ward.As it still needed time for Charlotte's broken calf bone to heal, she was confined to a wheelchair now.Leandro was very tall, and Charlotte had to raise her head to meet his eyes. "Mr. Romero, about the compensation...""I've thought it through," Leandro interrupted her.He then suddenly c

He finished speaking and lowered his head to kiss her lips again.Charlotte subconsciously clutched the shirt beside him, tilting her head to endure Leandro's lingering desire.Charlotte was kissed early in the morning and felt dizzy.When she walked downstairs, her face was still flushed.The door of the entrance opened, and the morning breeze blew in, giving her a sense of wakefulness.Leandro had already changed his shoes, he reached out and hugged her, soothingly kissed her forehead, "I will take you out to play tonight.""What are you playing?"Leandro looked at her and teased, "You'll find out tonight."Charlotte blinked her eyes and she realized that Leandro had also turned bad: "Well."He let go of his hand and said, "Let's go have breakfast.""Uh-huh."Charlotte nodded and watched as he walked towards the corner, then she closed the front door and went to the restaurant to have breakfast.Jo
Charlotte slept deeply, probably because she had drunk some beer.When I woke up the next day, Leandro was no longer in bed.The French window was opened one-third, and the morning breeze blew in. The curtains were blown up, and the sunlight followed through. The light inside the room was sometimes dim and sometimes bright.Charlotte squinted her eyes slightly, still not fully awake as she had just woken up.After sitting for a while, she finally became completely sober, and the events of last night naturally played back vividly in her mind.Charlotte!What on earth were the words of a tiger and a wolf that you said last night?You should not drink alcohol anymore in the future!Although I was sober last night, I was still influenced by alcohol. I knew what I was doing, but I was always a step behind, unlike now, where I am completely awake.Ah, ah, ah!After realizing what a jerk she had been last night, Charlott
When thin lips fell, Charlotte instinctively closed her eyes, and her hooked hand tightened involuntarily.After drinking alcohol, Charlotte's nerves became excited, and her hands, which she usually kept clenched, couldn't help but move a little.Through the silky pajamas, her palm could feel the warmth of Leandro's back.It was really hot.Why was he like a furnace?Charlotte couldn't help but move a little and suddenly let go of her Leandro, saying, "Lottie."Charlotte, who had not yet recovered, looked at him with a bewildered expression and asked, "What happened?"The just-kissed red lips glistened with moisture, damp under the lights, like cherries freshly touched by morning dew, tempting one to take a bite.What's most fatal is that those lychee-like eyes were filled with a watery gleam, looking at him so lost and helpless. Compared to the intentional seduction, this was even more deadly.Leandro knew that she was
Although knowing that Charlotte would probably say this tonight, she would forget it by tomorrow morning.But that soft spoken "I love you" easily shattered his proud composure.He glanced sideways at Charlotte, who was leaning on his shoulder, and his dark eyes under the shadow surged with restrained desire.With a snap, the lights in the entire living room suddenly turned on.Charlotte stood up and said, "The light turned on, the wish came true."Leandro chuckled and said, "What did Mrs. Romero wish for?"He turned off the night light at the entrance and carried her upstairs.Charlotte's face was already red, and upon hearing his question, it became even more flushed with embarrassment.She was just talking nonsense earlier, like making wishes before turning on the lights, even fairy tales wouldn't dare to write such things to deceive children.So just now, she was too busy admiring Leandro's serious and charming appea
