Charlotte hurriedly took back her hands and clenched her fists. "I'm sorry."
Leandro tilted his head and took a look at the index finger that was held by Charlotte just now. Then, he left without saying anything.
Charlotte kept thinking of what Leandro said about taking her home in a week. She couldn't even eat well.
She felt that Leandro did it on purpose. She forced him to marry her. And now, he began to take revenge on her for her rude and outrageous request for marriage.
Charlotte hadn't told Greyson about her marriage with Greyson.
When Elizabeth gave her a video call invitation, Charlotte was not in the mood for dinner anymore. She let go of her fork, picked up her phone, and pushed her wheelchair to the sofa.
"Lottie, did you have dinner?" Elizabeth asked.
"Just had some, but I didn't have much appetite," Charlotte replied.
After a short pause, Charlotte was about to confess to Elizabeth about getting the marriage certificate with Leandro. But before she said anything, Elizabeth gritted her teeth and angrily yelled on the other side of the video, "Lydia is really a shameless b***h. Honestly, you should've slapped her more yesterday! But we don't have to blame ourselves for that b***h. Lydia will be doomed sooner or later! But you know what pisses me the most? Marcus actually..."
Charlotte thought that Elizabeth was still angry about what happened yesterday morning. But the more Elizabeth said, the stranger her words sounded.
Charlotte didn't interrupt Elizabeth but zoomed out the video screen and searched for her name online.
As soon as she typed her family name, Charlotte saw the latest news.
Then, she checked Twitter. As expected, she was on Twitter trending.
The trending "A runaway groom is not the worst thing about a wedding" was in fifth place. It would be difficult for Charlotte not to see it.
Charlotte clicked the trending. What came into her view was the photo of Marcus and Lydia choosing rings.
The title of the trending topic was taken from a post written by a so-called "acquaintance of the poor bride whose fiancé escaped the wedding in Aelmere". The post was entitled "A runaway groom is not the worst thing about a wedding".
Charlotte clicked it and looked through the post.
The post of that "acquaintance" said: "Guys, remember the poorest bride that shocked the country more than a month ago? It was Ms. Bernard whose fiancé escaped the wedding and who got into a car accident later. I have a friend who's close to them. And I just found something even more outrageous today. It's said that today is the third anniversary of the day Ms. Bernard and her runaway groom were together. They also planned to get their marriage certificate today after their honeymoon. But you know what? My friend went shopping for bags today and saw the runaway groom choosing a ring for his true love! Ridiculous! I thought Ms. Bernard was miserable enough, but I didn't expect things would get worse!"
Comments on this post had mixed opinions. Some said that Charlotte wasn't miserable because she got rid of the scumbag. Some said Charlotte was unfairly treated by that scumbag on their love anniversary. Some were just enjoying the show. Others even expected this thing to get intensified through Charlotte's fight with the runaway groom's true love...
Charlotte looked through the comments for a while. Looking at the most-liked comments that mocked her, Charlotte instantly knew who arranged this trending topic.
Lydia used to deliberately arrange her own trending to rank before that of Charlotte after Charlotte's performance ended.
Charlotte was used to keeping a low profile. Although she found Lydia disgusting, Charlotte didn't want her beloved career to be interfered with by outside voices.
Most of her performances wouldn't be deliberately announced on Twitter. Occasionally, she would appear on trending topics, but the ranking wasn't high, and not many people would pay attention to it.
Last month's wedding was such a big fuss. Netizens made all kinds of malicious verbal abuses about her, but Charlotte never thought of fighting back.
Charlotte was no pushover, but she wasn't as thick-skinned as Lydia who always liked to show private matters to the public.
Elizabeth cursed for several minutes on the other side of the video. As she didn't hear Charlotte's voice for a while, she began to feel worried. "Lottie?"
"Yes?" Charlotte said with a smile, "I'm checking my Timeline."
She and Marcus had been childhood sweethearts for twelve years. They had too many common friends both in reality and in Timeline.
As it had become a trending topic that Marcus bought a ring for Lydia, many people in Timeline sympathized with Charlotte.
Some deliberately took the opportunity to mock Charlotte.
Lydia's friends all posted the photo of Lydia and Marcus on Timeline with almost the same post "Lydia deserves it".
Seeing this, Charlotte laughed out of anger. Elizabeth also saw Lydia's friends' Timeline, and she was pissed off. "Why are they so shameless?"
But somehow, Charlotte didn't feel bitter at all. She even liked their Timeline.
Without saying a word, she slowly pushed her wheelchair back to her room, placed her marriage certificate issued a few hours ago in front of the dressing table, and took a photo of it. After blurring important information, she posted it on Timeline and captioned: "Married."
