Chapter 725 A Wedding Gift
Yes, this gown was designed by Grace specifically for Charlotte when she
learned that Charlotte was going to host a bachelorette party. She worked
through the night to make it.
In order to deliver this dress on time, she even used the Fucile family’s private
jet just to send this one dress over.
“Are you sure you won’t regret this?” Lena gazed into Charlotte’s eyes,
remembering how painful the first year had been for her. She had witnessed
Charlotte’s suffering.
Enter title…
That was precisely why she found it somewhat unbelievable that Charlotte was
willing to give Joe another chance.
Charlotte smiled.
Since reuniting with Joe, it wasn’t just Joe’s actions that had touched her. She
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad also discovered some things she had never thought about before.
“To be honest, what happened back then, apart from Joe, I also had my faults,”
Charlotte said softly, sitting on the terrace by the sea, looking at the starry sky
above.
Lena widened her eyes in surprise. “What are you saying?”
Charlotte quickly explained, “Don’t worry, I’m not trying to defend Joe. His
mistakes are unquestionable. When I said I was wrong, I was referring to
myself.”
Back then, when she fell into the trap set by the White Family and slept with
Joe, she actually had some chances to escape. It was just that she carried a
glimmer of hope in her heart, which led to her marrying Joe in a state of
confusion.
After marriage, she failed to maintain her sense of self and became entirely
focused on Joe. Everything she did revolved around his likes and dislikes.
Such a relationship was inherently abnormal, and its eventual end was not
surprising.
“In a way, these past few years have been good for me,” Charlotte smiled at
Lena, her eyes shining brightly without a trace of darkness.
“After going through this, I’ve come to understand that the most important
person we should love is ourselves,” Charlotte raised her glass and finished it in
one gulp. “Even if I were to marry Joe again, I wouldn’t invest all my thoughts in
him as I did before, and I certainly won’t lose my independence because of
him.”
Her smile deepened. “Even if I make the same mistake again, what does it
matter? As long as I have the courage to start, I can handle all the
consequences.”
After Charlotte finished speaking, Lena quietly looked at her for a while before
chuckling lightly. “You’re right, the current you are truly radiant.”
They exchanged a glance, and both burst into laughter.
“Didn’t expect to find you here,” Gideon arrived at this moment. When he saw
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLena beside Charlotte, he hesitated for a moment and then awkwardly averted
his gaze.
He placed a box in front of Charlotte. “This is a wedding gift I prepared for you. It
can be your confidence booster no matter when.”
Charlotte opened the box and was surprised to find a set of keys inside.
Lena gave a meaningful look to Gideon and said to Charlotte, “This is the villa
we designed together, which could also be considered your family home.”
Charlotte accepted the box and glanced back and forth between Lena and
Gideon, feeling somewhat puzzled. She asked, “Why do I feel like something’s
off between you two?”
Gideon’s expression stiffened, and he replied in a solemn tone, “I can’t join your
bachelorette party, so I’ll take my leave…”
Before he could finish his words, he hastily turned and left.
His behavior confirmed Charlotte’s suspicions, and she turned to Lena,
demanding, “What exactly happened between you two? I’ve never seen him so
agitated.”
