Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 246

While Anne thought her sweet thoughts to herself, Natalia didn’t know how she felt, and only felt her heart hurt the more she looked at the girl’s innocent bearing.

The two hugged for a while and separated. Worried she would get hungry, Natalia made to feed her, but Archie stopped her.

The man’s face was stern. “Don’t pamper her. Let her eat herself.”

Natalia jolted, about to say that the child was still young.

But Anne took up her spoon herself and helped herself to a mouthful.

As she chewed with puffy cheeks, she said, “I’m grown-up now, Mommy. I can eat myself, so I don’t need someone to feed me now.”

At that, Natalia had to laugh. Warmth surging into her chest, she tapped Anne lightly on the nose.

“All right. Good girl, Anne.”

Anne smiled happily.

Ariana looked at the comfy scene and smiled herself.

After the meal, the family all retired to their rooms.

Anne started whining for Natalia to tell her a story, so Natalia took her to her own bedroom.

Archie had come out in a hurry this time, and plenty of work wasn’t done yet, needing his personal attention. So the moment he went back to his room, he’d started working again.

Ariana was tired as well. She’d always had a habit of napping, so she exchanged a few more words with them and went back to her own room to sleep.

It was a peaceful and beautiful afternoon.

On the other end, though, Jessica was having a far worse time of it.

She’d been searching for Natalia everywhere with nothing to show for it. The driver she’d bought out before had also reneged on their deal and directly accused her of paying to have Natalia driven there.

The driver had also given up the bank records between the two, claiming that before Natalia had gone missing, Jessica had wired a tremendous amount of money to the driver’s account.

Examination showed that that money really had gone out from Jessica’s account.

The police didn’t hide any of the news. The moment they confirmed it, they made it public.

The news made another wave on the internet.

But this time, Jessica didn’t respond.

That night, several police officers appeared at the Miller household and took Jessica away.

Because people had suspected Jessica for a long time and the online outcry against her was huge, many tabloid reporters had already been lying in wait outside the Miller household.

Fearing, of course, that they wouldn’t get here in time to make any news if they stayed at their offices.

Unexpectedly, they’d actually scooped up something.

Seeing the policemen escort Jessica out of the Miller household, the reporters worked themselves into a frenzy swarming up for questions.

But the police were on the case, so naturally they weren’t going to get the chance.

It didn’t take long before the reporters were blocked off and Jessica was shut inside a police car.

But even with that, the reporters were satisfied.

Even though they’d missed out on the interview, with just photos and videos, they could make a killing off of views.

That night, news of Jessica being taken into police custody spread like wildfire.

Accompanied by the photos of her getting taken out of the Miller household. If there ever was a cut and dry case, this was it.

Even Jessica’s most steadfast fans were stunned at that.

They couldn’t have fathomed that their little fairy, their gentle big sister, would really have gotten taken away by the police.
