Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet -
Chapter 449 Provocation
Chapter 449 Provocation
When her skin touched the warm water, the pores all over her body slowly opened. She couldn't help closing her eyes and sighing. It was comfortable! After soaking for more than half an hour, she felt hungry.
So she got up, went back to her room to change her clothes, and called to order dinner.
The lunch was soon served.
She had never paid much attention to food. While she was eating in the living room, her phone suddenly rang.
She looked around and found that it was a plane in the hotel. She quickly picked it up and answered it.
The pleasant voice of the receptionist sounded. "Hello, is it Mr. White?"
Victoria Kaur was stunned. She was still holding chopsticks in her hand and said, "He's not here now. What's the matter?"
"Hello, here's the thing. There's a Miss Lee downstairs claiming to be Mr. White's friend. If you want to replace him, can you tell him for me?"
Victoria Kaur opened her mouth in shock and dropped her chopsticks on the table.
After a while.
"Hello, are you still here?"
She quickly picked up her chopsticks and said in a slightly flustered voice.
"Uh, Charlie Peck went out and won't come back until afternoon. How about this, let her go up directly!"
"Okay!"
The phone was hung up.
After a long time, Victoria Kaur was in a state of shock.
A friend of Charlie Peck?
How could she not know that he had a female friend?
A moment later, someone knocked on the door.
She quickly put down her knife and fork and walked over to open the door.
She can't deny that the moment she opened the door, she was somewhat amazed.
The woman in front of her was wearing a long white lace dress. Her black hair fell to her waist. She was thin and her skin was white. Although her facial features were not delicate, she looked gentle and quiet, exuded a strong ambiance of literature and art.
Never being unabashed, but she made people like her at a glance.
"Are you Mrs. White?"
She smiled gently and reached out to her. "Hello, my name is Marilyn Lee. I'm Charlie's friend."
"Charlie?"
It was the first time that Victoria had heard someone call Charlie Peck in this way. She was slightly stunned, and then she quickly reached out to shake hands with her. Her smile looked kind of embarrassed, "Hello."
Marilyn tilted her head and looked into the room. She asked, "Where's Charlie?"
"He went out for business. He won't come back until afternoon."
Victoria suddenly remembered that the two of them were still standing at the door. She quickly stepped aside and let her in. She smiled and said, "Come in and have a seat please."
Marilyn nodded and entered the room.
The room was a little messy. After she finished soaking in the hot spring to wipe her hair, she didn't have enough time to clean up the towel. And the slippers changed from Charlie Peck were kicked by her, and even half of the takeout was still on the table.
Victoria was a little embarrassed when she saw Marilyn looking around the room.
She quickly asked, "Have you had the meal? If not, do you need me to order food for you?"
Marilyn Lee shook her head and smiled gently. "No, thank you!"
After a pause, she added, "I'm in poor health and my family has never allowed me to eat food outside."
Victoria frozen for a while.
Looking at the simple dishes on the table, she felt inexplicably unhappy.
Marilyn didn't seem to notice it. She just walked back and forth in the room, sometimes touching the clothes on the shelf, and sometimes flipping through the books on the table, as if they were familiar with each other.
Victoria frowned and leaned against the door. Her eyes grew colder and colder.
She couldn't understand what was going on with this woman. It was wired that Marilyn acted like this under the circumstance of her knowing the relationship between Charlie Peck and Victoria. What was she going to do? "Force me to leave?"
After a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore. She cleared her throat and coughed.
"Well... do you want to call him first?"
She gue
that Charlie Peck would not like to see his room was visited like a 00.
Marilyn raised her head and smiled gently at her.
"There's no need. When Charlie is working, he doesn't like to be disturbed."
Victoria was stunned.
She suddenly felt that she and Charlie Peck were husband and wife.
But she didn't say anything. If Victoria used this as an excuse, that would be too stingy.
Victoria looked at her angrily and felt annoyed. When she was about to turn around and leave, she was suddenly stopped by Marilyn.
"I heard that you came from Julio?"
Victoria turned around and looked at her.
Marilyn smiled. Her smile had always been gentle and harmless. Perhaps she was really in poor health, and her skin was abnormally pale.
She said gently, "Coincidentally, I just came back from Julio last week. I brought with me some special specialties of Julio. Do you want them?" Victoria pursed her lips.
"There's no need. We've eaten a lot of them since we were young, so we don't need them anymore. As for you, since you don't often go there, you can keep them by yourself."
Her tone was cool.
However, Marilyn didn't seem to care. She said, "You're so kind. You're Charlie's wife and he's my friend, so you're also my friend. Why are you regard me as an outsider? I'll ask someone to send some to you tomorrow."
Victoria silently twitched her mouth and did not refuse again.
The room fell into silence.
After walking around the bedroom, Marilyn checked the time with some regret on her face.
After thinking for a while, she suddenly asked, "Charlie hasn't come back yet. Are you going to wait for him in the room all the time?"
Victoria nodded.
She didn't intend to wait for Charlie Peck in the room all along, but somehow, she didn't want to tell this woman her real thoughts.
Marilyn suddenly smiled and said, "Well! I heard that there is a personal painting exhibition in the villa. It's noon now, and there should be very few people. Would you like to go with me to have a look?" "A painting exhibition?"
She was not interested, so she simply refused.
"No need, I'm not interested in this."
Marilyn was not disappointed, "Okay! In fact, I came here mainly because I heard that Charlie is here. I want to see him, but since he is not here..."
She smiled helplessly. "Then I have to go first."
Victoria finally smiled. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Okay, take care."
Marilyn walked to the door and suddenly hesitated. Finally, she took out an invitation card and handed it to Victoria.
"I will hold a party of art circles tonight. Could you help me pass this invitation card to Charlie?"
Victoria took it and saw that there were a few words written on it. It was too rough to see the content, but she had to admit that it was very artistic and beautiful. Nodding, she said, "Okay, no problem."
"Thank you."
After watching Marilyn leave, Victoria closed the door and finally let out a long sigh of relief.
She threw the card on the table and found that the food was cold. She no longer had the desire to continue eating. She tidied up and went back to her room for a rest. She slept until the afternoon.
Until Charlie Peck came back.
Victoria had always been a light sleeper. With a light click of the door outside, she was startled and woke up at once.
