Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet
Chapter 325 All In Vain

Chapter 325 All in Vain

Suddenly, everyone in the tearoom fell silent.

Though Natalia was not familiar with Mr. Kawn and had only spent a couple of hours with him, she was still sad to hear this terrible news.

"Uncle Wilson, I'm sorry."

Wilson smiled, "It's life. Nobody is immortal. My father has been suffering from illness for years. To be completely honest, this might be a big relief to him now. But ever since Yvonne's child went missing, she had been in a trance. Even when she later adopted Selena, she still couldn't move on, which was probably why she couldn't even make it to her 40th birthday.

"My father couldn't let it go. These years he has been constantly busy with family affairs and didn't even have time to search for the child. That is why he is so eager to replace Yvonne's daughter. He doesn't want to have any regrets.

"Actually, it doesn't matter anymore whether the child is fake or not. If he thinks she is real, then she is real."

After he finished, the three of them were silent again.

Natalia didn't know what to say.

She finally understood why Archie said getting the lost child back might not be a good thing.

Other than Wilhelm, no one wanted her back.

After all, Wilhelm was not in good condition. No one knew if he had made a will or not. If the child was found, there would be one more heir, even if she was just a woman with no background. Sometimes rich people were just incredibly cold-blooded.

Natalia and Archie had already known the answer and didn't want to talk anymore.

They stood up and took their leave.

Wilson walked them to the door.

At the door, he looked at Natalia. He wanted to say something but hesitated.

Natalia knew what he wanted to say. She said calmly, "Rest assured. I will mind my own business if she minds hers. Let bygones be bygones. I've taken back what belongs to me. After all, she got nothing in the end, and I don't want to waste more time on her."

Wilson was relieved to hear her say this.

"If so, thank you for your understanding."

Natalia nodded slightly and left with Archie.

It was still kind of early when they went back to Pinewood Manor.

They didn't eat much at the dinner. Seeing them back, Mrs. Dottie made some dumplings for them, which were Natalia's favorite.

When eating, Natalia kept drifting away.

Archie glanced at her and said, "If you're not comfortable with that, I can take you back to the Kawn Mansion and expose her lies."

Natalia was stunned and then quickly explained, "Oh, I'm not thinking about her."

Archie raised his eyebrows.

"Then what's on your mind?"

Natalia hesitated for a second and said, "I was thinking why Mr. Kawn was so distant to Selena. I've always heard that he was super nice to her. Is it because Jessica is back?" Archie was confused.

"And that's what you've been thinking about?"

Natalia nodded, looking quite serious.

"That's not your problem. You don't need to worry about her."

Natalia didn't know why he got mad.

"She is your ex-girlfriend or might even be your first love. She had been in love with you for so many years and you don't even bother to care about her a little bit. That is kind of cruel. Yet you think that I was being nosy."

Archie froze.

Natalia didn't like to rake up the past, but every once in a while, she couldn't help making fun of him on things about Selena.

He put down his spoon and looked her straight in the eyes, "Let me get this straight. I have never admitted that she was my girlfriend because it was all just jokes made by our parents when we were young. Moreover, even if she were my ex-girlfriend, we would have broken up for many years. We are total strangers now, so I have no obligation to care for her. And as my wife, you shouldn't care for her either, understand?"

Natalia didn't want him to really get mad. She tried to smooth things over by saying, "Honey, don't be so sensitive. Everyone has an ex these days. I had a relationship before I met you as well. I'm ok with that kind of stuff."

Hearing that, Archie was even more depressed.

Just then, Mrs. Dottie came in.

"Mr. and Mrs. McCarthy, Miss Kaur is here."

Natalia was stunned.

She checked the time and found out that it was ten o 'clock at night.

Ever since Victoria returned to Eqitin after giving birth, she had been laying low and rarely went out this late except for parties.

Why would she come here so late at night?

Natalia walked out of their room, feeling confused.

As soon as she got into the living room, she saw Victoria coming in with her baby in her arms, followed by her help Helen, who was carrying a large bag of stuff.

"Victoria," she went over and asked with concern, "What happened? Is everything alright?"

Victoria smiled, "Everything's fine. I hope I didn't disturb you by showing up this late."

Archie came up from behind. He took a look at Victoria and said to Natalia, "You girls talk, I need to get back to the study."

Natalia knew that he was intended to leave them two besties alone, so she nodded and said yes.

After Archie went upstairs, Natalia asked Victoria to sit on the couch. She glanced at the sleeping child in her arms and asked, "It's freezing outside. Why are you bringing him here so late?"

It was December in Eqitin. The snow on the road was very thick. How could a little child bear this kind of extreme weather?

Victoria sighed and said, "What choice do I have? He has to come here anyways. Instead of Helen dropping him off tomorrow morning, I'd rather bring him here myself." "What?"

Victoria looked her in the eyes and asked, "Lia, can you do me a favor?"

Natalia nodded with no hesitation, "Anything you ask for."

"Help take care of Joy. I gotta return to Julio."
