Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 224

People around came to congratulate her.

"Jessica, I am so jealous of you. You're so happy!"

"Shawn is so nice with you and these roses must be proof of his deep love for you. If I were you, I would just go home be a happy Mrs. Miller."

"Well, we are not as lucky as you to meet such a handsome and rich man."

Some even took this opportunity to mock Natalia.

"Well, Shawn only likes Jessica. However, somebody thinks too highly of herself, even having the illusion that Shawn had an affair with her."

"Well, she may be paranoid. It's terrible. We'd better stay away from her."

"Yes, she must have used some dirty tricks to get the part, but she thought of herself as some big shot. How ridiculous."

"Call her out, so she can understand how nice Shawn is with Jessica. She must be very embarrassed."

Surrounded by a group of women and praised by them, Jessica was very pleased.

Satisfaction filled her heart and she seemed to be on a cloud. Then she smiled, "Stop that."

Then she explained, "Natalia is very excellent. The devil made her do that. I've forgiven her. Please stop saying those words. Just do me a favor."

"Jessica, you're too kind. You'll be harmed by her sooner or later."

"Well, we'll stop that for your sake."

When they were talking, the delivery man that had left with the card went back.

He frowned, walked to Jessica and asked, "Miss, you're not Natalia?"

It surprised Jessica.

People around were also stunned.

Someone roared the next second, "This is Jessica, not Natalia!"

That man sighed.

"You should make it clear. The flowers are for Natalia Dawson, not for you."

With that, he checked Jessica's name off the card before everyone.

Jessica was lost for words.

People around were lost for words.

Just then, Natalia came over and asked in confusion when seeing everyone's unnatural expressions. "What happened?"

That man walked over and asked, "Hello, do you know where Natalia Dawson is?"

Natalia was confused.

"That’s me. What's up?"

The man was happy as if he discovered some treasure, so he handed the card to Natalia.

"Flowers presented by Mr. McCarthy. Please sign here."

Natalia was confused.

Looking at the red sea of roses before her, she felt somewhat dizzy.

What the hell was Archie doing?

People around stared at her, so she could only take it to sign her name.

When she was signing, she found a name that had been checked off.

Though it was checked off, Natalia could tell it was Jessica's name.

She couldn't help but cock her brow, with a cunning look.

Not far away, Jessica flushed with embarrassment and anger.

She had never been so awkward before.

The several girls that elbowed out and mocked Natalia for Jessica realized this thing did embarrass Jessica, so they looked at Jessica, apologetically, "Jessica, we're not..."

"Stop it!"

Jessica shouted to interrupt, gave Natalia a fierce look and turned around to leave.

Natalia signed her name and handed the card to the man.

The delivery man took it with a smile, "Thank you, Miss Dawson. Hope you can be together happily forever."

With that, the man handed her a letter before leaving with the card.

Some curious people walked over.

"Natalia, who has sent so many flowers."

"He should be a rich man, right?"

"Is that man lusting after you? Or, you've been in love?"

"Natalia, you must be so happy. We're jealous!"

They flattered Natalia the same way they flattered Jessica.

However, Natalia kept an indifferent look, put away the letter and said, "Well, just a friend. Don't go far with it. I have to prepare my part, so I'll go ahead."

With that, she turned around and walked to the lounge.

Someone couldn't help but snort.

"It's so annoying to see her arrogant disposition."

"I agree. She found a sugar daddy since she failed to seduce Shawn."

"How pretentious, right? I was just trying to be polite. Does she really think we're envious? She does take herself as a big shot!"

Anyway, the crowd that had gathered for a show just dispersed like that.

Natalia sat on the sofa of the lounge. She was amused by the pink letter in her hand.

This man...

The pink letter was quite delicate in design, and the paper was obviously of high quality with a granular texture. Gold silk thread circled the paper, and a sentence was written on the middle.

"I've got you under my skin, deep in my heart. –M”

She reached out to stroke those gold letters. After a while, she couldn't help but smile.

Though he failed to sit back and do nothing as she required, he didn't break his promise, for he didn't sign his name on it.

Natalia thought for a while and called Archie.

Archie was having a meeting.

His phone suddenly rang. He paused and said, "Let's take a break. I'll be back in ten minutes."

Then he went out with his phone.

The staff had been used to the fact that their boss would occasionally pick up his phone during the meeting.

Rumors had it that their boss kept a woman in his house and loved her deeply.

For her, their boss did many things he had never done before.

Some were even sad about it.

Their boss had been so aloof and only cared about his work. Why was he so obsessed with a woman now?

Women often brought trouble. Their boss should be meticulous!

However, Archie wouldn't hear these discussions.

He stood at the corridor and answered the phone with a gentle voice, "Lia, Did you get the flowers?"

Natalia said neither yes nor no, but asked, "What do you mean? Why do you give me so many roses?"
