Chapter 1426 I Will Accompany You On Twelfth Night
After Jerry's desires were fulfilled by Charlotte, Jerry suddenly remembered something and rubbed his eyebrows in
annoyance.
He pulled open the bedside drawer and rummaged through it. After finding an unopened box of medicine, he took
out a pill and leaned over, gently patting Charlotte's cheek. “Babe, take your medicine.”
Charlotte frowned at the noise and swatted Jerry's hand away before pulling the blanket over herself.
Jerry held the medicine in his mouth and took a sip of water. He pinched Charlotte's chin, intending to feed her the
medicine with his mouth. But in the instant their lips met, he hesitated for some unknown reason.
He pressed against her soft lips, making no further moves.
Charlotte caught a whiff of Jerry's scent and instinctively kissed him, then embraced his waist to find a comfortable
position to continue sleeping.
Jerry's eyes turned gloomy. In the end, Jerry swallowed the medicine and turned off the bedside lamp.
The next morning, Charlotte thought about the things she had to deal with that day. She woke up as soon as the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtalarm clock rang for the second time without needing Jerry to coax her.
The housekeeper who took care of Charlotte's daily needs was still with Jessica, so Charlotte and Jerry had no
choice but to go out for breakfast.
Today, the temperature was around minus six degrees, and the wind made it feel even colder.
Even though the café had the heater on, Charlotte still tucked her hands into Jerry's coat. “It's so strange this year.
It's almost January, and the first snowfall hasn't come yet. I thought it would snow on Christmas.”
“Your birthday is in a few days,” she continued as she looked up at Jerry. “Do you think it will snow on your
birthday?”
“Well, I have to ask then,” said Jerry. He made a gesture by his ear, as if he was calling someone on the phone, and
asked earnestly, “Is this the weather station? Can you tell me if it's going to snow on the 29th? My girlfriend wants
to see snow.”
Charlotte couldn't help but laugh at his antics. “The company will throw you a birthday party when the time comes.”
Jerry responded with a hum, clearly not very excited.
“How about this? They celebrate your birthday with you during the day, and I'll be with you at night,” Charlotte said
as she wrapped her arms around Jerry's waist. “In addition to the custom cake, I've also prepared a fantastic
birthday gift for you.”
She also promised Jerry, “Not only on your birthday, but I'll also be with you on Twelfth Night and New Year's Eve.”
Jerry was delighted by Charlotte's coaxing, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. He lowered his head and gave
her a gentle kiss on the forehead. “Hurry up and eat your breakfast; the spaghetti won't taste good once they've
turned cold.”
Jerry has a 10 o'clock appointment to be at an event to promote a wristwatch brand. After having breakfast,
Charlotte personally accompanied him to the shopping mall.
Then Charlotte called Leila and drove to the tailor shop.
On the 18th, Joshua's murder case was retried. Due to the conclusive evidence, Joshua was ultimately acquitted,
while Joshua's ex-wife was sentenced to thirty years in prison.
Joshua had been in prison for nearly ten years, and he was almost completely disconnected from the outside world.
During this time, Leila closed her tailor shop and stayed by Joshua's side, helping him adapt to the world outside.
It wasn't until today that Joshua decided to visit the tailor shop, and Leila accompanied him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Charlotte entered the tailor shop, she saw Leila talking to a man who was busy working at the counter. Leila
was wearing a dark blue traditional gown with loop buttons. Although Leila's hair was white, her face was filled with
smiles.
Previously, when Charlotte met Leila, she saw sorrow filling the latter's eyes and face. However, Leila was full of
vitality now, as if she had become a completely different person.
Leila saw Charlotte coming and greeted the latter with a smile, then introduced the man beside her. “This is my
husband, Joshua Norton.”
Joshua wore a sweater the same color as Leila's gown. He had an elegant demeanor. Although wrinkles had formed
at the corners of his eyes, his facial features were still handsome, revealing that he must have been quite attractive
in his youth.
Joshua said to Charlotte, “Thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to see my wife before the
retrial of my case.”
Since Joshua's ex-wife had relatives working in the court, Leila couldn't visit Joshua in prison after he was
imprisoned. Over the years, all Leila could do was write letters and send her own photos to him.
That day, after Leila was able to visit the prison, she couldn't stop crying when she saw Joshua.
“No need to thank me. This is a deal between me and Ms. Joule,” said Charlotte. If it weren't for Genevieve's help,
she wouldn't have had the ability to let Leila visit the prison as well.
