If you counter Temur Charm it doesn't resolve and you do not have to pay the additional . When Counterspell resolves it counters a spell, when Mana Leak resolves it will counter whatever spell it's targeting unless its controller pays , but until they resolve they don't do anything.

Long answer: If you counter a spell, it is effectively stopped completely. If your opponent lets the Counterspell they were casting get countered, whatever they were countering is not countered.

Short answer: No.
