View MoreTwo days flew by in a flash. Finally, Diana's concert began.The audience filed into the hall in a neat and orderly line. Charlotte, escorted by Aaron and Ian, smiled happily with a sense of honor on her face. They had prime seats at the front of the stage, affording them a clear view of the proceedings."Chris is here!" Charlotte exclaimed suddenly, her gaze darting towards the passageway in surprise. Aaron and Ian followed her look, raising their eyebrows in unison. Chris stood alone, apparently not having reconciled with his first girlfriend as he had hoped.The music prelude began, signaling the imminent start of Diana's performance. The audience had already settled into their seats, waiting with bated breath. Charlotte, too, awaited eagerly, but she couldn't shake the feeling of being watched.Turning her head reflexively, Charlotte scanned the dimly lit corner where the sensation emanated from, finding nothing amiss. Rows of spectators were seat
The next day, rehearsals resumed. Charlotte was taken aback to learn that Zelda had been hospitalized due to an accidental injury.The news cast a somber mood over the rehearsal site, and conversations buzzed."I heard Zelda was in a car accident on her way home and broke her leg bone.""They caught the guy, apparently it was a DUI.""Poor Zelda. Hey, remember what Kingsley said to her before?"Even Sherry, beside Charlotte, couldn't hide her concern.A few days back, when Zelda nearly caused Charlotte to fall off the stage, Kingsley publicly expressed a wish that she could endure such mishaps.Ironically, just two days later, Zelda was in an accident.As speculations swirled at the rehearsal site, insinuating Kingsley's involvement, Sherry glanced at Charlotte, who was staring at her phone with a hint of worry."Come on, Charlotte, our turn's coming up," Sherry said, walking back to her.Charlotte tore her gaze fro
At that moment, the ward was permeated with the smell of disinfectant.Kingsley, with a pallid face, clicked on the video. His deep-set eyes flickered with a faint light.Carl poured a cup of warm boiled water and stood by the hospital bed, clutching the medicine bottle. "Kingsley, it's time to take your medicine. And she's fine, so please don't worry."However, Kingsley ignored him.He replayed the video that the staff had sent repeatedly, his gaze fixated on Charlotte's gentle face on the screen. Yet, when he saw Charlotte chatting happily with Ben on the grass, and Ben reaching out to touch her arm, his breath caught, his eyes instantly reddening.It was as if the beast in his heart, long suppressed, was about to break free.Carl noticed his expression shift."Kingsley!"Kingsley remained silent, tightly pursing his thin lips. His hand, clutching the cell phone, trembled, fingers repeatedly clenching. Then, with a cl
The rehearsal this time went very well. Afterward, Charlotte headed to the bathroom but was intercepted at the door.She glanced up to meet Zelda's eyes, which were filled with jealousy and resentment. Zelda's pretty and elegant face was twisted with sneers and smugness at that moment."Charlotte, do you think you can win Kingsley's support just because you have a pretty face?" Zelda taunted.Charlotte pursed her lips, but before she could respond, Zelda continued, "Oh, I almost forgot. A shameless flirt like you is probably accustomed to seducing men, aren't you? When Kingsley isn't around, you move on to the next target, using your innocent face to entice others, like Ben. You must have noticed Ben's decent background, right? You're repulsive! Disgusting, really!"Charlotte's expression darkened. She had grown up in a loving environment, surrounded by kind and gentle people.Being maliciously targeted by a stranger for no apparent reason, and f
Upon returning home, Charlotte went to her room and had a good sleep.Kingsley was absent from rehearsals for the next two days, and Zelda also maintained a low profile during this time.Without Kingsley's heavy pressure, the atmosphere at the rehearsal site became much more relaxed.Carolina once again treated everyone to coffee during breaks on set. It seemed as though the events of the previous two days had been forgotten by all.However, Charlotte couldn't shake her worry for Kingsley.She had kept track of his schedule for the past three years and knew that he would occasionally take a few days off when feeling out of sorts. But Kingsley had never taken a leave during rehearsals until now, marking this as the first time.As she recalled the day Kingsley left in a somewhat off mood, Charlotte couldn't help but fret."Charlotte, what's wrong? You don't seem too happy," Sherry asked, concern evident in her voice, as
Kingsley, dressed in his mid-world aristocratic attire, looked every bit the part of a real prince, exuding an assertive and regal presence.However, the icy expression on his face made it difficult for Charlotte to connect him with the divine yet gentle Romeo he portrayed on stage.In the rehearsal hall, the lighting simulated the effect of moonlight, with soft white light bathing the stage and creating a dreamy atmosphere. The set design was minimal but evocative of a beautiful garden, with Charlotte standing on a high balcony in a white dress that seemed to blend into the surrounding moonlight.Kingsley's Romeo stood below, gazing up at Charlotte with love in his eyes.Romeo spoke to Juliet with tenderness and longing in his voice, "Ah, Juliet, your beauty transcends my words. Your eyes resemble stars that illuminate my heart. Let me offer you all I have and spend this wonderful night with you."Juliet smiled charmingly, her eyes full of innoc
This night, Charlotte couldn't sleep.As the hours passed and she gazed out the window at the moonlight, her mind was consumed with the memory of her first meeting with Kingsley.It had been when she was a child, before her family had found her. She and Kingsley were in the same orphanage, and at the time, she was frequently bullied.In a moment of crisis, Kingsley had intervened. Wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, he appeared seemingly out of nowhere. Despite being young and frail, he stepped in front of her. When he saw her being bullied, his eyes turned scarlet.Kingsley rushed forward and fought with the group of people like a furious lion cub.Charlotte suddenly saw the blood on the carpet, causing her to scream in terror as Kingsley seemed to recover from his anger.He turned to her, a hint of confusion and apprehension in his red eyes, as if he feared meeting her gaze.Charlotte remained surprisingly calm, sitting paralyzed
Kingsley opened his eyes and met Charlotte's gaze. The next moment, he looked away."Prepare to enter. Rehearsal is ready to begin," Carolina's words prompted everyone on set to take their places. Kingsley stood up, while Charlotte walked onto the stage.The scene depicted the first encounter between Juliet and Romeo.The stage was elegantly designed, resembling a grand banquet. Brilliantly lit candles and soft, romantic music created the perfect ambiance. The crowd, dressed in elaborate ballroom attire, danced energetically in the center of the dance floor.Kingsley's Romeo was dressed in an ornate dark blue outfit with a mask, wandering through the ball until he spotted Juliet, played by Charlotte, on the other side of the stage. She wore a white gown, resembling a delicate rose.Romeo was captivated by Juliet's beauty, and he felt as though she was the only person left at the ball. He approached her to the accompaniment of music, his heart racing wi
As soon as school ended the following day, Sherry took Charlotte to the drama club.Carolina Ferraz, a senior member of the drama club majoring in choreography and direction, was in charge of the play rehearsal. She wore a well-tailored ladies' suit, exuding a refined and competent appearance.When she saw Charlotte, amazement and satisfaction appeared in Carolina's eyes, pleased with her choice. "Charlotte, hello," Carolina said, extending her hand. "I'm Carolina, in charge of this play."Charlotte smiled warmly and gently shook Carolina's hand. "Carolina, how are you?"Their meeting was filled with pleasant conversation.The play this time was the classic Romeo and Juliet. Since this was Charlotte's first time participating in a play, Carolina postponed the rehearsal schedule by a week to allow Charlotte more time to prepare.She also arranged for a drama club member to teach Charlotte how to act. Fortunately, Charlotte's talent and
