My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339 No Need for Threats

Natalia pursed her lips, thought about it, and agreed.

"Fine. Come on in."

Selena parked her own car behind and got in the shotgun seat of Natalia's car.

Natalia found it a bit awkward that it was the second time she was bumping into Selena and Maxwell's affairs.

And doing it twice consecutively – forget Selena, even she herself couldn't believe that it was a coincidence.

"What did you want to talk about, Miss Kawn?"

Even though she knew, Natalia still asked.

Selena didn't look at her, keeping her cold gaze in front. "Did you hear our conversation?"

"Ahem!"

Natalia coughed embarrassedly and hastily explained, "Not deliberately, really. I was coming down to get my car, and didn't think you two would be here too."

Selena looked at her, a bit of mockery in her eyes.

"So you did hear it all, then?"

"..."

She had to scowl at that attitude. "Fine, I'll admit that I heard it, but don't worry. It's got nothing to do with me, so I won't tell."

Selena frowned subtly, then said coldly, "That had better be the case."

Natalia was a little exasperated.

Selena continued, "Really, I don't have anything to do with him. He's just chasing after me incessantly. You're a woman too, Natalia, so you should understand how I feel. I don't even like him, and I don't want this child. So the public can't know about us."

Natalia's lips twitched.

"If you don't like him, then why'd you come together?"

Selena floundered.

Her face changed slightly but she didn't explain.

She took a deep breath and looked at Selena seriously. "I'll owe you for it if you keep this secret. Anything you need afterwards, just tell me. On the other hand, though... you know what I mean."

Natalia chuckled.

"You don't need to threaten me. After all, you can't threaten me."

Selena didn't reply.

Natalia put a hand casually on the car window, looking at her with a half-smile.

"I'm keeping your secret because you have nothing to do with me. I'm not such a gossipmonger that I'll go around blurting your love life to anyone who listens. That's all. Anything else and, forgive me, Miss Kawn, but you're just overthinking it."

Selena's expression darkened right then and there.

She didn't like how carefree Natalia was being, or the way her lofty tones seemed to squash her beneath her feet.

She was supposed to be the lady of the Kawn family, while this woman was just a peasant who'd climbed her way to where she was using Archie McCarthy as a foothold. How dare she talk to her in such tones?

But Selena's years of training in manners weren't for nothing.

She nodded calmly.

"All right. Since you've said that much, I can relax. No matter what, I do owe you one, and I'll pay you back one day."

Natalia smiled and didn't say anything about her words.

With everything made clear, Selena didn't linger in the car and got out after opening the door.

"Goodbye, Mrs. McCarthy."
