President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 171

In fact, Natalia was terrified of closing her eyes when she was conscious.

After all, she had experienced that kind of trauma in her previous life. Subconsciously she just found it hard to have faith in her surroundings.

It was fine when her eyes were open, but there was no way she could see what was happening around her as she closed her eyes even though she was conscious. The fear which buried deep in her memory would be triggered instantly.

Therefore, she had actually taken a lot of determination to be willing to close her eyes and commit herself fully to him.

The man noticed her fingertips were trembling slightly, so he reached out his hands, took her into his arms and asked, “Are you cold?”

She shook her head.

She pursed her lips and swallowed, but she couldn’t hold back in the end and asked with a little tremor in her voice, “Will you let go of my hand?”

“No.”

His voice was firm, and she felt slightly reassured.

As long as he was there, she wouldn’t be scared.

Soon there was a strong wind blowing towards her and the sound of propeller was getting closer. She knew that the plane was landing.

Then there was a sudden weightlessness, she lost her balance and exclaimed.

When she recovered her wits, she was being carried by the man.

She didn’t open her eyes, but her fingers were gripping the man’s sleeve and her face looked a bit pale.

Archie asked in a low voice, “Are you still scared in this way?”

She froze as she just realized that the fear she had unconsciously revealed had long been caught in his eyes.

Her small body was huddling in his arms and her nose was filled with his fresh and calm scent, which soothed her heart.

Gradually, she didn’t seem so scared anymore.

She showed a smile and shook her head.

Only then did he land a kiss on her lips and said softly, “Trust me.”

“Um.”

He carried her in her arms and took strides forward.

She could feel him holding her onto the plane and it was quiet as there was no other sounds except for the whirring of the propellers.

After they got on the plane, he sat down but he didn’t put her down.

Instead, he placed her right on his lap and kept holding her in his arms.

Natalia felt a little embarrassed and wanted to open her eyes, but soon she heard his stern voice when her eyelashes twitched slightly.

“Don’t move.”

She immediately didn’t dare to move and open her eyes again, but the curiosity in her mind grew stronger and stronger.

Where was he taking her?

No one told her the answer and the plane soon took off.

She could feel the weightlessness at the moment it took off. However, she didn’t feel scared as she was being held in his arms.

It was still quiet around, but this time she could hear footsteps passing by occasionally apart from the sound of propellers.

Soon, the plane became steady and began to fly at even speed.

She didn’t know exactly where he was taking her, so she could only wait quietly with her eyes closed.

To be honest, there was some excitement and anticipation in her mind.

After all, she didn’t know what kind of surprise would await her next.

After about ten minutes, the plane finally landed.

Although it didn’t take long, it seemed that a long time had passed as she closed her eyes.

Her body turned light as the man carried her in his arms and got off the plane.

She could feel the cold wind at night blowing on her face, but it soon disappeared and was replaced by a warmth that exuded a fresh fragrance.
