President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 49

Victoria was stunned.

She wanted to say it was not her bet!

But Natalia was her good sister and she did it for her sake, so that she could have a date with Charlie.

Besides, when the bet was made, she had stood up herself, and it was not good to deny it.

Victoria gathered the broken hair in her ear and coughed lightly.

"I...... I didn't run away! I just, I just came to get something, Yes, I came to get something from the car."

She repeated the sentence with certainty.

Charlie sneered in disdain.

The door was unlocked. He pulled the door open and got into the passenger seat.

Victoria was confused.

Seeing the woman still standing there, he stared at her coldly and said in an impatient manner, “Why are you standing there? Don’t you want to have dinner?"

Victoria: ...

"Oh!" She wanted to get in the car, but suddenly she realized that the car was Natalia's and that she had not come by car.

If she drove away the car, how could Natalia get back later?

So, looking at the man sitting on the passenger seat and closing his eyes, she asked, “This isn't my car. Can we ride in yours?"

Charlie: ...

Fuck!

Then Natalia received a phone call from Victoria.

Victoria told her she had to leave first and had given the car keys to the security guard in the parking lot. Then she hung up the phone.

Natalia had wanted to ask her if she wanted to wait for Charlie to keep his promise, but she hung up quickly.

But she heard that Charlie had gone after the competition. She took a look at her watch and suddenly understood something.

So, she did not bother her again, took her car and left after made an appointment with Nathan.

When she got home, it was ten o'clock at night.

It was a surprise that Archie was not there.

Since she forgot to tell him last time she worked overtime, the man drove directly to her company to pick her up. This time, she had sent him a text message in advance.

But she did not expect that it was not only she came home late. He had not come back.

Natalia found Dottie, Dottie said with a smile, “Mr. Archie called at the dinner time, saying tonight in the company there is a very important cross-ocean meeting, so he won't come back early.”

Natalia nodded.

She went straight upstairs without another word.

She got home after a long day, she wanted to take a bath and have a good rest.

Natalia took her pajamas and went into the bathroom.

On the other side, Victoria and Charlie had arrived at the restaurant.

It was an open-air candlelit restaurant.

The restaurant was on the second floor, with bright moon and cold wind overhead and vast river in a distance. It was surrounded by romantic candlelight. On the small stage, there was a cellist playing melodramatic and beautiful music.

If the cold-faced man was ignored, this was the most suitable romantic venue for a date.

When the waiter came with the food they ordered, Victoria expressed her thanks in a low voice.

She was not fully armed, took off her mask, leaving only a hat.

The broad brim of her hat obscured her eyes, leaving only her straight nose and pink lips, and her graceful chin slightly raised. Without saying a word, she had a look of nobility and cool beauty.

Charlie’s pupils were deep and cold.

All the way from the racetrack, Victoria had gradually eased down from the tension.

But, she was a little embarrassed.

They were outside, but she felt the pressure of the air around her. It seemed that even the space was cramped and suffocated.

The atmosphere was silent and awkward.

Especially in such an open-air restaurant, many couples were there.

In contrast with the loving couples, the two of them look even more distant and cold.

A waiter with roses in his hands came over, bent slightly and smiled respectfully, "Sir, would you like to buy a bunch of flowers for your girlfriend?"

Charlie said coldly, "No!"

The waiter seemed to realize this couple was strange. They just sat there and said nothing. And this man looked very fierce.

To lighten the mood, he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. You can order songs there. You can order a song for your girlfriend, Sir. It is romantic in such an environment listening to the song your lover orders!"

Charlie raised his head and stared at him coldly.

That look, like a wolf in the wilderness, shed faint cold light in the dark of the night.

The waiter suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Then, the man said word by word, “She is not my girlfriend. No! Fuck off!"

The waiter finally realized that the man in front of him was not only fierce, but also in bad temper!

His face changed slightly and he hurried away with the rose in his arms.

Victoria looked at this scene, feeling awkward.

She whispered, "I gotta to use the bathroom."

Then she got up and left in a hurry.

Looking at the woman’s back, Charlie did not speak, but darkened his eyes.

In the bathroom, Victoria desperately took deep breath.

It seemed that only in this way could she get temporary relief of the heart which had been oppressed for a long time.

The cell phone in the bag suddenly started to ring.

She took it out and found that it was Natalia.

Her eyes were sour and she forced to hold back her tears.

"Hello, Natalia."

"How is it, Victoria? Is it fun to have a date?"

Victoria forced a smile.

Fun?

Maybe!!!!

Unfortunately, he looked so unhappy!

Perhaps in this life he hated her the most. She once promised never to appear in front of him, but now she broke the agreement and forced him to have a candlelight dinner with him. He should hate her!

Victoria felt that her eyes get sour again.

She pressed it down quickly.

She could not cry. She cost took more than two hours to do the makeup. If she cried, it would be ruined.

She looked up and it was several seconds before she could hold back the tears.

Natalia thought there was something wrong because Victoria did not make a sound.

"Victoria? Are you all right?"

Victoria hurriedly replied, "I'm fine, I am in the bathroom!"

"Good, then. How are you getting on?"

"Not good. You know he's so cold. He could sit with me for hours without saying a word. What could I do?"

Natalia despised him.

"You start the conversation! You are the most popular star in J City, aren't you always good at creating topics? Think of all the men who run after you and believe in your charm. As long as you are willing to use a little bit of your charm, you will make it!"

Victoria was so amused by her and burst into laughter.
