My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Not Lack of Money

They wandered from afternoon to evening in the shopping mall.

Natalia was hungry.

In order to thank her for helping him "pick" clothes, Archie invited Natalia for dinner.

Natalia was so hungry that she didn't refuse him. At seven in the evening, they went to the nearby Flat Iron Steak House for dinner.

She ate ten of the newly released steamed fresh crabs quickly.

The young man beside them looked straight at him and wondered how could such an elite and handsome looking dude starve his girlfriend like that? How many days had passed since her last meal?

Natalia wouldn't mind her image when she was hungry.

This was the skill she trained out after working for several years.

When she was busy most of the time, it was a luxury to eat on time. Under that situation, there was no time for her to mind her appearance. She just wanted to finish eating and went back to work.

When she finished the tenth crab and wanted to grab more, the plate holding the crab on the table was suddenly carried away.

She looked up and stared at Archie, asking him blankly, "What are you doing?"

Archie handed the plate to the waiter and said in a deep voice, "Having too much crab at once is bad for your health. Just eat something else now."

Natalia pouted in dissatisfaction, but she knew what he said was true and could only let it go.

However, after looking at the other dishes on the table, she was full and didn't want to eat.

Hence, she put down her cutlery.

Seeing she put down her chopsticks, Archie stopped eating.

After paying for their bill, they got up together and headed toward the door.

The black Rolls Royce was parked at the roadside. Brian got out of the car and respectfully opened the door for them.

Natalia greeted him with a smile, "Brian, have you had your dinner?"

Brian always felt that there was something sinister in that smile, and he hastily nodded with a compensating smile, "Yes."

"Well, that's good."

Natalia got on the car and whispered to Archie.

"Mr. McCarthy, how dare your assistant run out for dinner with your car and leave you at the restaurant? I think it is too rude."

Brian was suddenly stiffened and explained with a bitter look, "Sir, I didn't. I just ate at a nearby restaurant."

Archie, however, nodded with a smile as if he couldn't hear what he said.

"Well, it's a bit rude, and I'll punish him later."

"Great!"

Natalia's revenge was successful, while Brian had a bitter look on her face. Archie dotingly stroked her head.

The car started, and Archie suddenly took out a bag from his back and handed it to her.

"For you."

Natalia froze and took it over. It was actually the dress she tried on in the fashion store earlier.

"Why did you take this out?"

Archie smiled, "Don't you like it? Brian saw you liked it, so he bought it."

Natalia glanced at Brian.

Receiving the hint from Archie, he hurriedly nodded his head.

"Yes, yes, Miss Natalia, I bought it, I... I didn't mean anything by lying to your best friend. A great man does not bear pretty grudges, so forgive me!"

Natalia looked at him for a moment, and then smiled suddenly.

In fact, she was just teasing Brian, not expecting him to be so nervous.

She nodded and pulled her phone out, "I'll transfer the money to you later."

"Never mind!"

Brian hastily refused her. God knows his president paid the money, how dare he accept it?

He smiled and explained.

"That... actually I just came up with an idea. The decision is made by my boss. If you want to pay the money, just give it to him!"

Once finished, he shut up and never uttered a word again.

Natalia looked at Archie in surprise, and Archie said in a light tone.

"I'm not short of money."

Wouldn't she know he wasn't lack of money? Did she need him to tell her?
