Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 266

The restaurant was high end for Julio, but it was clearly not good enough.

And the standards that Wilson seemed to have made it quite clear that he wasn’t the type of person who’d eat at a place like this. He’d come today either because he was in a hurry or because something special had attracted him.

Natalia was curious about it, but they didn’t know each other too well, so she didn’t ask about it.

The two went into the restaurant, chatting as they ate. The atmosphere was quite friendly.

Still, she didn’t know if she was imagining it or not, but she felt that the way Wilson looked at her wasn’t quite right.

The passion he was showing wasn’t like someone who’d only met her once or twice at all.

Natalia put herself on guard as she asked, “Are you in the city on business, Mr. Kawn?”

Wilson replied, “I’m looking for a person.”

“Oh? May I ask who you’re looking for?”

Wilson paused, then chuckled, “An old friend’s child.”

At that, he didn’t continue. Seeing that he wasn’t willing to say too much about it, Natalia didn’t press him.

She just laughed it off.

A new dish came up, and seeing as she was a local of Julio, Natalia introduced, “These pork chops are pretty famous in our city. I don’t know how the tastes over at Eqitin go, but you could give this a try, Mr. Kawn.”

Wilson looked at the pork chops and stared out into space a little.

Seeing that, Natalia asked carefully, “Are you all right?”

Wilson recovered his wits and forced a smile. “I’m fine.”

Yvonne had loved pork chops too.

How nice would it be if she was here?

Natalia didn’t know if she was imagining it, but she kept feeling that this Mr. Kawn seemed a bit down.

Considering that he was here in Julio looking for someone, maybe he hadn’t found them. Or maybe it was something else.

This was only their second time meeting, and it wasn’t appropriate to ask too many questions, so Natalia didn’t comment on it.

After the meal, it was about time. Wilson was heading to the airport to catch a plane and didn’t have a car with him, so Natalia drove him there.

They chatted for a while longer on the road. Natalia kept it tasteful and didn’t ask about the man’s identity.

After all, no matter who he was, it didn’t have anything to do with her. She’d just made a friend by chance; that was all.

At the airport, Natalia texted Archie and told him she was there.

Archie’s flight was arriving at one fifty. There was still half an hour to spare.

Either he was worried that a lone girl was waiting for someone here or he wanted to speak to her a while longer, Wilson stayed at Natalia’s side and refused to go in on his own.

Since he’d gone that far, Natalia didn’t refuse.

After a while of waiting, Archie emerged.

The man was in a black suit and grey jacket, looking as refined, dignified and handsome as ever!

She couldn’t help beaming as she ran up to him.

“Natalia!”

From the moment he laid eyes on her, his smile didn’t diminish. Taking her in his arms, he hugged her fiercely.

“Miss me yet?”

Natalia’s heart hammered.

She buried her face in his chest, feeling his heart pound forcefully as well.

Feeling a warmth in her eyes, her heart suddenly throbbed.

She forgot everything else for just this moment and circled her arms around his waist, nodding.

Joy raced up the man’s chest and he took up her face, kissing her hard.

The kiss dazed Natalia a little, but she still closed her eyes and took in his being with all her senses.

Imperious, deep, overbearing…

He wanted her all to himself.

Standing close by, Wilson was thoroughly embarrassed.

He’d seen Archie and had been pleasantly surprised, ready to greet him.

But now…

The kiss didn’t last long and ended soon enough.

After all, they were in the airport. It might have been the VIP passage, but there were still plenty of people. He still had to consider her reputation.

As he’d thought, the moment he loosed his grip, he found her face completely red, like two particularly pretty ripe apples.

Natalia never imaged that she’d get seduced by this man into kissing him full on the mouth in broad daylight.

Her prim and proper manners had all been reduced to atoms from sheer longing.

Only then did she find that some emotions had, perhaps, already been long seeded in her heart. She’d just been unwilling to see it and hid from them, treating them as if they didn’t exist.

But how could she ignore something that did exist?

A small seed only needed a bit of nourishment to break through the topsoil and become a great tree.

And time and distance were excellent nourishment.

Feeling heated gazes on her back, Natalia lifted her head.

And then she saw many passersby looking their way. Her face was buried in the man’s chest, so they couldn’t make out her features.

Even so, from her figure and her aura, anyone could imagine how beautiful she was.

Gorgeous men and women always drew attention, much less actions as bold as this.

Natalia’s face went even redder as she swept her hair and blocked her face, afraid she’d get recognized.

She was a mildly famous actress now, wasn’t she?

There were enough bad points about that. She couldn’t afford to get a picture snapped and ending up on headlines again tomorrow.

Looking at the way she was covering her face, Archie chuckled.

“Getting shy?”

Natalia shook her head and tugged on his sleeve. “Let’s go!”

“Yeah.” He paused and didn’t move, raising his hand to cover her face.

Her face had been small to begin with, so his palm almost blocked it completely.

Natalia was a bit taken aback. Raising her head, she looked into his glimmering eyes, a gentle smile in them as he murmured, “I missed you too. A lot.”

Natalia laughed.

This man, really…

She’d replied that she missed him, so he had to say the same?

Was it that serious?

For some reason, honeyed sweetness emerged from the bottom of her heart, driving into her chest.

She nodded. “Yeah, I know.”

Taking his hand, she said, “Come here. I’ve got someone I want to introduce to you.”

He let her lead him in front of Wilson obediently.

Natalia was a bit embarrassed that Wilson must have seen all of that, but she’d done it anyway and couldn’t wipe it clean, so she could only act calm.

“The person I’m picking up is here, Mr. Kawn. Archie, this is a friend of Mrs. Wright’s – Mr. Kawn.”

Wilson laughed and exclaimed, “How unexpected, Archie! I’d been wondering why you were sticking around Julio so much recently. Turns out you’ve got a girl here.”

Archie smiled faintly too. “That’s a bit far, Uncle. I didn’t think you’d know Natalia. Looks like I won’t need to introduce you.”
