President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 109

Victoria shook her head.

“I’m fine. Don’t call the police.”

She took a deep breath as if she was trying to calm down herself.

“Natalia, can you help me get my clothes over?”

Natalia looked at her with complicated emotions.

She knew that ordinary people would not dare to treat Victoria like this knowing her family background. Moreover, she had bodyguards following her at any time, so no ruffians could get close to her.

But she looked so miserable now. Natalia thought that there must be some reasons she didn’t want others to know.

Natalia didn’t say anything else. She turned around to find Victoria’s clothes and then picked them up. She then supported Victoria to the washroom to give her a simple wash and then took her out of this place.

In the McCarthy Mansion…

Seeing that Natalia brought a girl back and that she had seen this girl on the TV, Mrs. Dottie became so happy.

“Mrs. Dottie, this is my friend Victoria Kaur. She will live here in these days. Please prepare some light dishes for us now.”

“Oh, okay.”

Natalia supported Victoria into the bedroom.

“Natalia, I want to take a bath.”

“Okay.”

The guest room hadn’t been used before and therefore it had everything she would need.

Natalia prepared the water for her and asked her to take a bath inside. She then turned around and asked Mrs. Dottie to find a doctor.

Ever since Natalia moved into the McCarthy Mansion, they hired one more standby female doctor. Although it was almost the New Year, as that female doctor’s home was in Julio, and it was not far away from the McCarthy Mansion, it was convenient for her to come over.

When Victoria finished the bath, Natalia asked the doctor to give her an examination.

“She is our doctor. Rest assured. She won’t talk.”

Natalia explained when noticing Victoria’s vigilant eyes.

Only then did Victoria feel relieved. The doctor asked her to take off the clothes. Feeling unbearable to see the scene, Natalia turned around and left the room.

In about ten minutes, the doctor came out and told Natalia that it was over.

Natalia asked several questions and learned that except for the wounds on her body, Victoria also had some lacerations in her private part. Natalia vaguely knew what was going on in her heart and didn’t ask any other questions. She asked the doctor to prescribe the medicines and then let her leave.

When she walked into the guest room again, she found that Victoria had put on her clothes. She was leaning against the head of the bed and looking out of the windows dully.

“What happened? Can you tell me now?”

“Natalia, I don’t want to talk about this.”

Her face was a bit pale, her eyes having no focus and her voice so feeble. She looked extremely weak.

Natalia knitted her brows tightly.

“I’m so hungry. Do you have anything to eat?”

It seemed like Victoria had sensed that Natalia was angry, she turned around and smiled weakly at her.

Although Natalia was a bit annoyed by her suffering in her heart, she still said, “You can still feel hungry. Looks like you won’t die easily.”

With that being said, she still came downstairs and took the dishes prepared by Mrs. Dottie upstairs.

Victoria was already exhausted after finishing the dishes.

Natalia didn’t want to bother her any longer. Moreover, since Victoria didn’t want to mention this matter, she must have her own reasons behind this.

Therefore, although Natalia still felt somewhat angry, she didn’t say anything else and just asked Victoria to have a rest.

On the next day…

It was the Eve of the New Year. Archie gave her a call, telling her that he would come back in the afternoon and accompany her for the New Year.

Natalia was a bit surprised. Archie told her that he would go back to Eqitin before, so she thought that he would come back to Eqitin for the New Year.

She had been drifting from place to place homelessly and miserably over the years. Even though she came back to the country later, she didn’t have any family or any friend. Shawn had to come back to the Miller family to celebrate the New Year, so naturally it was impossible for him to stay with her. Therefore, she gradually lost the interest and mood to celebrate the New Year.

She always thought that living alone was not that bad.

But now she thought that it was probably a habit.

Naturally Mrs. Dottie was so happy when she learned that Archie would come back. She prepared several more dishes for the dinner and also prepared a bottle of wine. It was a lively and hearty dinner for the Eve of the New Year.

Archie arrived home at five in the afternoon.

When he arrived home, he immediately noticed the shoes at the door and quickly learned that they had a guest.

As expected, at the next moment, Victoria walked down from the stairs with a glass in her hand.

“Hello, Mr. McCarthy. We meet again.”

Archie knitted his brows tightly.

“Why is she here?”

He was asking Mrs. Dottie who was standing aside.

Mrs. Dottie was a bit bewildered.

“Mr. McCarthy, Ms. Kaur is Mrs. McCarthy’s friend. She will live here for two days.”

“No way!”

Just as he had finished the words, Natalia walked out of her bedroom.

“Why can’t she live here?”

She walked over, wrapped her arm around Victoria’s arm and raised her brows, “Victoria is my good friend, so I want her to stay here with me for the New Year. She won’t bother you. Why can’t she stay here?”

Archie’s expression was a bit hideous.

Natalia knew that this man had a bad impression of Victoria dues to the things that had happened before.

But now that such a bad thing had happened to Victoria, she couldn’t leave her alone.

Therefore, she walked to Archie in strides and pulled his cloth.

She said meekly in a low voice, “She’s my friend. Please show me some face.”

When had she ever talked to him in such a soft voice?

And it somehow sounded like she was begging him!

Archie immediately failed to remain his composure. He took a glance at Natalia and in the end, he said in a cold and intense tone, “Only two days.”

Victoria sneered, “Rest assured. I will only stay here for two days. Two days later, I will not stay here even though you ask me to stay for more days.”

After finishing the words, she swaggered back to her room.

Archie’s face became gloomier.

Natalia smiled awkwardly and tried to ease his anger.

“You must be tired after flying for the whole day, right? Hurry up to have a seat. Wait a minute, I will pour some water for you.”

Victoria had recovered a lot after sleeping for the whole night.

The wounds were almost all over her body and as she was wearing a high-necked sweater, no one could see the wounds. Therefore, for those who didn’t know what happened, Victoria looked just as the same as she was in usual times except that her face was a bit pale.

Victoria still refused to tell Natalia about the truth, and Natalia couldn’t do anything to it.

It was just that Brandon Kaur, the owner of Ambario Prosperities and Victoria’s father, made a phone call to Victoria in the afternoon. Natalia happened to walk past the room and vaguely heard the quarrel from inside the room.

She guessed that this was the reason why Victoria didn’t want to come back.

Although she worried about her a lot, she could only put aside this thing in the end.

Today was the New Year’s Eve. Although fireworks had already been banned in the urban areas, fireworks were allowed in the suburbs.

After the meal, Natalia wanted to walk around to help digest the food. So Archie brought her to Oak Park in the suburbs to watch the firework show. Victoria, however, could not be bothered to go out and decided to stay in the room for sleeping.

Natalia and Archie drove there. When they arrived at the destination, they found that there were already many people.

Archie had booked a table in a revolving restaurant on a high floor, where they could not only watch the firework show but also the endless stream of people and cars on the street in the New Year’s Eve. It would be a unique experience.

“Mister, Miss, these are the drinks you ordered.”

A waiter walked over with a tray. Natalia was looking out of the windows and she didn’t pay attention to him.

When she reached out to take the glass of drink, she suddenly felt something touching her finger tip.

She was a bit stunned. When she turned her head, her eyes met with the waiter’s meaningful gaze.

Her expression changed slightly.

Luckily, Archie was having a call now and he didn’t notice them.

She hurriedly withdrew her hand. When the waiter left reverently, she still felt that her finger tips were shivering slightly.

“Wait a minute. I want to use the toilet. I will come back soon.”

Natalia said to Archie and then stood up.

She walked all the way to the toilet. She closed the door of the toilet compartment and then finally opened the note in her hand.

There were only some simple and scratchy words on the note, “Seven, long time no see.”

Natalia’s expression changed dramatically.

Was it him?
