My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 My Wife

She silently glanced at the dishes on the table. Sure enough, most of them were just her favorites.

The books in the study, the clothes in the checkroom, and the table full of her favorite dishes – she just felt everything was just too obvious to be a coincidence.

But the man did not say anything, so she also pretended not to know, and did not say anything either.

At the table, they had a quiet dinner together and neither of them said anything to each other.

After the dinner, she decided to take a stroll in the garden in front of the villa, and at the same time read some entertainment news for today using her phone.

Suddenly, the fresh fragrance of pinewood came from behind.

She was slightly stunned, turned her head to take a look, and saw Archie standing behind her.

"Don't look at your phone when you walk."

He said, reaching out and snatching her phone away.

Natalia wasn't paying attention to the road ahead, and suddenly stepped on a stone. She just stumbled and fell to the side.

"AHHH-"

A short scream sounded.

The expected pain did not come. Instead, the man grabbed her waist and easily brought her back into his arms.

"You should have listened to the words of wisdom from a mature man!"

He lectured her with a stern face.

Natalia felt ashamed and suddenly her face flushed. Since she did do something wrong, she could not say even a word to refute him.

She could only eye him angrily and said in stern tone, "OK, I know you are an old man. Does any mature man take advantage of young girls? Let go of me now!"

She struggled in his arms.

The arm that was placed on the waist did not let go but used more strength.

Archie laughed and said in a low voice, "I was just warning you and you really get angry? What advantage do I take hugging my own wife?"

Natalia stared at him.

The man finally gave up and let go of her waist to surrender.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I should not have taken advantage of you. Since you do mind, why don't you also take advantage of me as well?"

At that, he leaned over, as if telling her that she could put an arm around his waist.

Natalia was furious.

'This man is really shameless!'

She turned to leave in a huff, and Archie, knowing that she was really angry, hurriedly pulled her back.

He coaxed in a soft tone, "Okay, I was just kidding! Are you really mad at me?"

Natalia ignored him.

Archie then said in a serious manner, "I have something serious to tell you, do you want to listen or not?"

Natalia slightly glanced at him.

Sensing that he wasn't joking, she decided to stop, "What is it?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to meet Stephen? He's now already back in the country. I will arrange for you two to meet each other tomorrow at noon!"

Natalia thought about it, and thought that there was nothing to do at noon tomorrow, so it was fine for her.

She looked at Archie, her eyebrows knitted lightly, and then she said seriously, "Archie McCarthy, let me make it clear first. Although I appreciate what you did for me, I do have principles."

"If Stephen is indeed wrongly accused, I can help him clear his name, save his reputation, and even help him go to the next level, but if all those accusations are just true."

"Then I'm sorry, even if he is your cousin, I won't help him!"

Archie looked at her with deep eyes and laughed lightly, "So you have principles? Protecting the vulnerable?"

Natalia rolled her eyes at him.

"You think I'm a saint?!"

She paused for a while and said in a deep voice, "I just think, if he is really a dishonorable person and he is not even willing to correct himself, then even if I help him out this time, he will make the same mistake the next time. I cannot always follow him to help him wipe his ass, he will sooner or later cause other problems."

"In that case, why even bother to waste my time on him? Indeed, it's not very difficult to make something in the entertainment industry, what is difficult is to maintain a good image for a long time. It takes more than just a good PR team, but the efforts of his own."

Archie pondered slightly and nodded his head.

"Well, you're right."

After a short pause, he added, "But don't worry, he's not the kind of person you think he is, you'll know that when you meet him tomorrow."

"Mm."

The next day at noon, Natalia did meet Stephen Rogers.

Archie had asked Brian to book a private room in a high-end restaurant near the McCarthy Group and invited him to have lunch with him, so that he could introduce the two of them to each other.

When they arrived, Stephen was already there.

When he saw the two of them come in, he quickly got up and greeted Archie with a smile.

"My dear cousin, here you are."

When he saw the woman who was following behind Archie, he was a little surprised.

Archie had indeed told him before that he would introduce someone to him today, and that his PR work would be left to this person later.

But how could he have imagined that it was actually a woman!

Just everybody knew, his cousin would never get close to a woman!

It was a miracle that he should bring a woman out today!

His eyes immediately became different, and he even squeezed his eyes towards Archie ambiguously.

Archie pretended that he had seen nothing.

After the three of them were all seated, and Stephen said with a smile, "My dear cousin, who is this beauty? Introduce me!"

Archie swept his eyes coldly and said in a deep voice: "Behave yourself! This is your sister-in-law!"

"What?"

Stephen's eyes widened in disbelief.

He almost suspected that he had a hearing problem!

Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?

His brother was married?

Natalia was a little embarrassed and coughed, "That ... let's get down to business first!"

"No hurry, we can eat first."

How would Archie be willing to let his girl bear a hungry belly?

Natalia did not insist, either, since they were not in a hurry.

And Stephen, who was sitting opposite finally recovered slowly from his shock.

He could only force a awkward smile at Archie, as if he had just seen a ghost.

"Bro, you won't just hire an actor just to fool our grandfather, right? Don't worry, I won't tell him. So you can just be honest with me."

Archie cast a cold glace at him.

"Stephen Rogers, are you just asking for trouble?"

Stephen was speechless.

He felt so aggrieved.

"Bro, we all know you are not interested in women! Just rest assured, people now are quite openminded! At least I am, I won't just look down on you just because you like men... AHHHHH, why do you hit me!"

Archie could not hold back and grabbed a teacup and threw at Stephen.

To the side, Natalia laughed in amusement.

For his delicate and feminine look, for a lot of people in the country, he was always just like a sad prince in their mind. Just looking at his deep and complicated eyes, which were always noble and sad, people would just think he must have a lot of stories to be told. He did not even say anything himself, and had already captured the heart of a large number of young girls.

Natalia had always thought that since he could maintain such an image on the screen for such a long time, this should be more or less just the way he was behind the scene.

But unexpectedly, he was just a completely different person in front of her.

What a funny man!

Seeing Natalia laughing so happily, Archie's gaze deepened, and the anger on his face also faded away.

He tapped on the table with his slender fingers, and said in a cold voice, "If you talk nonsense again, I would definitely ask someone to stitch up the mouth of you!"
