Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 110

She only came out of the toilet ten minutes later.

Archie had finished the call and was now waiting for her at the table.

Natalia took a deep breath to adjust her mood and then walked over.

“It’s been so long. Are you okay?”

Natalia shook her head, “I’m fine.”

The firework show hadn’t begun yet and a violoncellist was playing a melodious song in the restaurant.

The romantic candle lights around them appeared to be uniquely romantic and touching in such a night scene.

Archie took a glance at her and smiled, “Mrs. McCarthy, would you like to dance with me?”

Natalia was a bit stunned.

The man had already stood up. He walked to her and bent down.

Looking at the palm in front of her, Natalia was a bit amused while at the same time in a dilemma.

“Archie, I’m not wearing an evening dress now.”

“I’m not wearing a business suit either.”

Regardless of her scruples, he held up her hand and pulled her up from the chair.

The music played by violoncello was gentle and melodious. The two of them, both in their down jackets, danced trippingly in the space in front of the restaurant. Maybe they had booked the whole floor as there were no other guest this floor. The cold breezes of the winter were held back by the windows and this scene even gave people a warm and securing feeling.

With her hand being held by Archie, Natalia danced with his tempo. The man’s palm was hot and she could clearly feel the strength behind it.

Initially, she felt restless after receiving that note, but now, she gradually calmed down herself under such a circumstance.

“What’s in your mind?”

Archie suddenly asked.

Natalia came back to her own sense and hurriedly shook her head.

“Nothing.”

Archie looked down meaningfully at her.

Natalia felt a bit uneasy under his gaze. She slightly turned her head and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”

“I don’t like to see you being absent-minded.”

Natalia was a bit stunned.

At the next moment, the man continued, “It makes me feel like I’m not that charming.”

Natalia, “…”

In the end, she couldn’t withstand it any longer and let out a chuckle. She pressed her lips together and said with a smile, “It’s not so. You’re so charming.”

The man’s eyes lit up.

“It’s just that I’m not accustomed to this. I haven’t celebrated the New Year seriously for several years. In the past, I would stay in the bedroom along to watch TV or directly go to bed. I’m not used to celebrating the New Year like this.”

The man’s eyes became more complicated.

There was a trace of complicated emotion in his unfathomable eyes. Natalia couldn’t tell what it was.

“Rest assured. I will celebrate every New Year with you in the future. I won’t let you stay at home along to watch TV any longer.”

Natalia was a bit stunned. She looked up at him and found that the man’s expression was serious. It seemed like he was not joking.

Her heart softened and she said with a smile, “Thank you.”

Bang—

There came a loud sound. A firework suddenly exploded outside, the violoncellist stopped playing the music. He put down the violoncello, walked over and said with a smile, “Mister, Miss, the firework show begins.”

Archie nodded his head and waved his hand to gesture the violoncellist to leave. He then pulled Natalia to the windows.

The fireworks were like trees in the sky blooming one by one not far away.

There were many colors, including blue, yellow, white, purple, green, and so forth. Countless colors of fireworks rocketed up the sky. They intertwined with each other and exploded like the blooming flowers in the end.

Even Natalia, who had always been used to a quiet life and didn’t like the boisterous scenes at all, was also shocked by such a prosperous scene. She widened her eyes, went closer to the window and exclaimed in a low voice.

Archie hugged her from behind and laid his head on her shoulder.

“Is it beautiful?”

“Yep, it’s beautiful.”

“If you like it, I can give you a firework show every year.”

Natalia was a bit stunned.

She turned around and looked at him in disbelief.

“You arranged this for me?”

Archie smiled and nodded his head.

She didn’t know that although playing fireworks was allowed in the suburbs, normally people would only play some more ordinary fireworks for the festival atmosphere. But tonight’s firework show was so beautiful, and it could even be regarded as a spectacular one.

Natalia’s heart inexplicably softened.

She slightly lowered her head. After a short while, she looked up with a pair of red eyes.

“Thank you.”

Archie’s heart softened when he saw this.

“You don’t need to be so courteous with me.”

He reached out and wiped away the tears round the corners of her eyes and then said in a low voice, “I hope that we can feel as warm and happy as we are every year.”

Natalia fixed her eyes on him. After a long while, she heavily nodded her head.

“Okay.”

The firework show lasted for half an hour.

When it was finished, it was exactly twelve o’clock in the midnight.

The New Year’s bell rang. The man embraced her from behind and whispered into her ear, “Honey, happy new year.”

Natalia’s heart was completely softened. She curled her lips into a smile and said in a low voice, “Happy new year.”

Right at this moment, in an inconspicuous dark place, a dejected man was standing there.

Looking at the couple who was hugging with each other affectionally under the fireworks, a trace of indifference and coldness flashed across his eyes.

A waiter walked over and reminded him, “Sir, we are not opening today. I’m sorry but you can’t enter here.”

The man turned around and shot an indifferent glance at the waiter.

The waiter widened his eyes in shock when he saw the man’s face clearly.

At the next moment, the man turned around and walked towards the outside and soon disappeared in the dark night which had no lights.

Natalia almost forgot how she came back home.

When the firework show was over, they decided to come back. She was so sleepy that she fell asleep soon after getting into the car.

She only woke up in the next morning. Lying on the soft queen-sized bed, she found that the man sleeping beside her was still closing his eyes. His handsome face flashed across the lights of gentleness under the sunshine of the morning. He was still in sound sleep.

Natalia narrowed her eyes, propped up her body and prepared to get out of the bed. However, just as she moved, the man reached out and pulled her back again.

“Sleep a little longer.”

The man’s voice sounded a bit sexy and husky as he just woke up in the morning.

Natalia chuckled, “It’s late now. I want to have a look at Victoria.”

“She has left.”

Natalia was a bit stunned.

Archie finally opened his eyes. There was a trace of laziness that people always had when they woke up in the morning in his unfathomable eyes.

With one hand below his head, he said in a flat tone, “She left last night. But you were in sound sleep at that time so she didn’t tell you.”

“Where did she go?”

Archie didn’t reply.

But his eyes were questioning Natalia how he would possibly know about Victoria’s whereabouts.

Victoria was not his wife, so how would he care about where she was going?

Natalia then realized that she could not ask him about this. She hurriedly got up from the bed, picked up her phone and then dialed Victoria’s number.

After a long while, the call finally went through.

Victoria’s clear voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

“Natalia, you’ve woken up?”

“Where did you go?”

“I came back home.”

“Back home?”

“Of course. He’s my father, so I can’t hate him forever, right? Today is the first day of the New Year, so of course I should come back and celebrate the New Year together with my father.”

Natalia, “…”

“All right. It’s great as long as you’re fine.”

“Rest assured. Don’t worry about me. I’m doing quite well. Happy New Year! Let’s stop here now.”

Natalia chuckled, “Okay, happy New Year!”

They then ended the call. Natalia heaved a sigh of relief and walked to the bathroom to take a shower.

On the other side, Victoria put down her phone and looked towards the man who was sitting on the sofa. She immediately pulled a long face.

“Dad, I won’t marry him. Just forget about it!”
