My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51 The Sweet Nothings In The Study

Natalia went downstairs, trying to explain to Mrs. Dottie.

However, Mrs. Dottie did not believe what she said at all.

On the contrary, she gave her a suggestive look, "I understand, Madam. You don't have to be shy about it. It's a great thing for couples to share a good relationship. Soon, a little young master will be on the way, and all the hustle and bustle in the Mansion."

In short, she rambled on but refused to believe Natalia about it being a misunderstanding.

Natalia gave up when she found that Mrs. Dottie was difficult to get through.

Technically speaking, Archie and she was a legally married couple. So it was nothing out of the ordinary for them to be engaging in a little intimacy.

It was quite awkward to be caught red-handed by elders but it was not a big deal.

Natalia decided to abandon her plan to forgo the chance to restore her uppity image in Mrs. Dottie's mind. Instead, she poured herself a glass of milk and headed upstairs.

When she passed by the study, she suddenly heard someone talking inside.

It seems that Archie was talking on the phone.

Not minding the slightest, Natalia was about to pass by, but she suddenly heard a gentle soothing.

"Oh baby, be good. Listen to me, take the medicine, then go to bed early today. Okay?"

Her body stiffened.

She was nailed to where she stood.

"I'll be back soon."

"Be a good girl, and I'll accompany you when I get back, okay?"

"Yes, of course Anne is the most adorable baby in the world."

The sweet talk continued in the study.

The conversation mostly involved gentle hushes of the man in an incredibly gentle tone that Natalia had never heard before.

She could even imagine Archie smiling with an affectionate look on his face.

It was a sweet scene, but she felt as though a splash of water hit her, sending chills down to her spine.

Natalia even heard Archie chuckling with delight.

"Okay, I'll miss you too. Good night."

The call ended.

The room went back to silence for a moment. Then, there was the sound of footsteps. Archie was heading out.

Natalia's face turned into blue.

Out of impulse, the strange coincidence had her turn tail and run.

She ran into the bedroom and slammed the door backhanded.

She sprinted all the way to her bedroom and slammed the door behind her in a wham.

Coming out of the study, Archie witnessed a whirlwind coming through from afar, and the next thing he knew, the bedroom door was closed shut.

He was petrified, and then he frowned as if he realized something.

Coincidently, Mrs. Dottie came upstairs at this time. Archie stood in the corridor and asked, "What's wrong with Madam??"

Mrs. Dottie got confused by his question.

"Madam just come upstairs, right? She was alright!"

The frown on Archie's face deepened.

Without another word, he turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

In dimmed light, Natalia was leaning against the headboard, flipping through an entertainment magazine.

Archie trod over and asked in a causal way, "Did you just go by the study?"

Natalia took a glance at him and made a dry cough, "Yes, just passing by. Why are you nervous?"

Archie didn't answer her.

Even without looking at him, she could feel his sharp gaze hounding her with inquiry.

Natalia got tired of this topic somehow. So, she intentionally yawned and put down the magazine in her hand.

"It's too late. I'll hit the sack now."

Then, she lay down and pull up the quilt up. With her back facing him, she closed her eyes.

As she snuggled under the covers, Archie's eyes darkened.
