My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166 Growing Old Together

Archie glimpsed at her coldly.

Natalia continued with a mischievous smile, "Listen, you have to follow me very closely these few days, or else you'll get taken away by the wolves. I could protect you if you stay with me."

After finished, she laughed. Archie's muscles tensed up a little.

He was slightly aggrieved. Who would have thought that the president of the McCarthy Properties would be teased by someone like that one day?

Yet he could not utter any word.

He could only flick his finger on her forehead with grievance in the end. "Alright, hurry up and go! We still need to go to Mount Praia."

Both of them strode towards the manor.

Archie was preparing lunch in the kitchen at noon. Natalia took the initiative to lend him a helping hand, washing the vegetables and the plates. They did look like a young married couple.

After finishing washing the vegetables, Natalia had nothing else to do. She carried a small wooden stool and sat next to the kitchen watching Archie stirring the vegetables in the pan.

She realized a man with good looks would look handsome even when his hair was disheveled and he was wearing an apron. He had a natural charisma.

He looked composed and was deft in cooking, as if he was not holding a spatula, but a samurai's sword.

The pot did not look like one either. It looked like a protective shield that he could use to defend himself during a war. He was the proud and superior general who commanded the army.

A smile broke upon her lips. As she was absorbed in her infinite imagination of him colonizing the whole world, she suddenly heard a loud bang.

Natalia was taken aback by the noise and she leapt from the stool. She saw Archie covering the pot with the lid in a rush. The meat was sizzling with oil inside.

Natalia glanced at him deeply. She saw him heaving a sigh of relief momentarily.

Alright!

She had thought too much. Archie did not cook much either. He was just biting the bullet to mix and cook the ingredients with his powerful common sense and logical thinking.

He finished cooking. Although the food's appearance was awful, the food still tasted okay. After having lunch, they packed their luggage and headed out towards Mount Praia.

It took them one hour to go there from the manor where they stayed by car. They called a taxi nearby and reached the foot of the hill one hour later.

Lots of tourists from many parts of the world gathered there as expected. Natalia climbed the hill with Archie.

It was afternoon and the sun was bright. It was not too far away from the sea and the soothing sea breeze blew across the grass.

It was already four in the afternoon when they climbed halfway up the hill. Archie had been working out all year long and he was okay with it, yet Natalia was so exhausted that she breathed heavily.

"Could you still make it?" Archie held her and took a water bottle out from his backpack. He handed it to her.

Natalia took it over and gulped, nodding. "Yeah."

She had to climb to the top. She must not give up and let anyone make fun of her.

She held her breath and tried hard to climb up. Archie followed behind her, firstly, to protect her, and secondly, to avoid letting her see his disdainful eyes.

"Hey, what's that over there?"

Natalia suddenly straightened her back and pointed at a huge tree tied with red ropes not far away.

Quite many tourists had headed there. Archie stopped and gazed at it, saying, "No idea. Looks like it's a place for people to meditate."

Natalia became intrigued. "Let's have a look there."

They walked there and discovered a small pond.
