CHAPTER 1387 LOVE IS TOO EASILY OBTAINED
Surprisingly, Joash added her back on WeChat. : text © owner.
Charlotte immediately asked what was going on. Tell him to add me back quickly, or I'll get angry!
Joash replied, I'll talk to Jerry in a bit.
Stephanie waited until the afternoon. Every time she sent a message to Jerry and saw the red exclamation mark before the message, she was extremely annoyed.
Joash said Jerry was busy and did not have time to check his phone. He also did not know Jerry's phone password.
Charlotte planned to confront Jerry in the evening. She would not calm down unless he appeased her properly. However, when she drove to Jerry's residential area, the security guard told her that he had not returned yet.
She checked Jerry's schedule and found out he had two commercials to shoot in Baykeep, and he would be staying there for a while.
She could not believe Jerry did not even have the time to listen to Joash speak. Jerry was clearly trying to give her a warning.
Charlotte sincerely apologized to the man last night and coaxed him for the entire evening, but he still was unsatisfied. Instead, he decided to give her the silent treatment, which also made Charlotte's temper flare up.
Fine! If he wants to give me the silent treatment, I can't be bothered to coax him, either.
Charlotte no longer paid attention to Jerry, focusing wholeheartedly on her work. In her spare time, she took a glance at the news.
She watched the court's retrial of the Joshua case. Joshua's ex-wife was not to be trifled with either. She hired the best lawyer to represent her, arguing that she had mental issues and was speaking nonsense that day. However, the lawyer from the Joshua side presented sufficient evidence to prove that she had indeed killed the child.
To determine whether Joshua was guilty or innocent, the case review would take time, but Joshua did not idle in prison. Instead, he personally sewed the formal attire that Charlotte had requested.
On the 16th, Leila called Charlotte, asking her to come and pick up the formal attire.
Charlotte happened to be free, so she drove to Leila's tailor shop in the morning. There, she saw the traditional gown for Yvonne, as well as the handmade green traditional attire by Joshua.
Upon unfolding the traditional attire to take a closer look, Charlotte felt it would definitely look great on Jerry.
That deal with Leila was really worth it.
Charlotte sent a message to Genevieve and also took Yvonne's formal attire.
She curiously asked Leila, “I heard others insulted you because of Mr. Norton. After he was imprisoned,
you could have had a better life without him. Why did you go to great lengths to save him?”
Leila smiled and helped her pack the dress. “The fact that you would ask me such a question means you haven't had a person you truly love.”
“This has nothing to do with whether or not I have a lover,” Charlotte said. “It's normal for people to seek benefits and avoid harm. Besides, even the most loving couples will part ways when faced with danger.”
“If it weren't for him, your reputation would be even greater,” Charlotte added.
Leila said, “Some people like fame, money, and power, while others like love. I happen to be the latter. I enjoy every day spent with my loved one. I feel that the most meaningful time in life is when I'm with him. Without him, it would be hard for me to bear.”
Leila did not have lofty ambitions. All she hoped was that the Norton family's tailor shop could gain fame and grow old with her loved one.
Charlotte frowned, unable to agree with her idea. In her opinion, no matter how deeply in love a couple is, they will always argue and may even break up, but money would never betray you.
When one stood at the pinnacle of power, it was easy to gain the deep love of one person or even several people.
Love was something too easily obtained.
Seeing Charlotte frown, Leila knew she disagreed. Leila sent her out of the tailor shop and said, “When you truly fall in love, you'll understand what I mean.”
