My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 403

Chapter 403 The Lafayette Family

Natalia was suddenly not interested anymore and found it boring.

She said coldly, "I think about that. It's getting late. Mr. Kawn, get some rest."

Mr. Kawn nodded.

Then Natalia left with Archie.

This meeting was going too smoothly.

Except that the ones from the collateral branches was shocked, the people who were at the eye of this storm was surprisingly calm.

Mr. and Mrs. McCarthy went back to their mansion. They were just intermediary on this matter. It didn't matter for them whether Natalia wanted to be a Kawn or not.

From their perspective, Natalia was the best granddaughter-in-law they could have and this was enough.

Her true identity was not that big a deal to them.

Natalia went back to the Pinewood Manor with Archie.

She didn't say anything on the way home. She just looked outside the car window emotionlessly and Archie couldn't tell if she was happy or sad.

Archie reached his hand and held her hand which was cold in the night of fall. He asked, "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

Natalia stopped staring outside the window.

She turned to him and was unexpectedly calm.

"You knew it before, right?"

Archie raised his eyebrows.

He was surprised.

But he didn't lie and said honestly, "I made some presumptions before but I didn't get any legit news. So I wasn't quite sure."

"Then, do you believe I am truly Yvonne's daughter?"

Archie didn't say anything.

He was a little surprised.

But he didn't hide the truth from her and said honestly, "I kind of anticipated it. But I wasn't quite sure because I didn't have any proof."

"So you choose to believe that I'm really Yvonne's daughter?"

Archie didn't say anything.

His eyes were deep like ocean.

After a while, he said plainly, "Do you know why aunt Yvonne died?"

Natalia shook her head.

She didn't know much about the Kawn family.

And she knew much less about Yvonne.

Archie said seriously, "She died from depression. She was tortured by love and couldn't move on for years. She ended up committing suicide."

Natalia was shocked!

"But I heard that she got ill."

"It's just a white lie."

Archie sighed. He patted on her hands and said quietly, "Back then aunt Yvonne was seriously ill. Depression had done a number on her. People only knew that she got sick but they didn't know what the disease was exactly."

"On a holiday, all the Kawns went out for fun and left aunt Yvonne and the servants at home. That night, aunt Yvonne couldn't take it anymore. She slit her wrist. By the time someone found her, the bathtub was filled with blood and she was not breathing. There was no way to bring her back."

Natalia sat there motionlessly. She couldn't dare to imagine what it was like.

How painful must it had been for her to have the courage to cut her own wrist and kill herself?

She zipped her lips and felt like her chest had been weighed down by a heavy stone. She was out of breath.

After some time, she asked hoarsely, "Why? Why was she depressed?"

"There are several reasons."

Archie glanced at her and said, "She was in love with someone, but for many reasons they were separated, and that person died in an accident."
